Main server is starting to suck.
No point in working anymore, cause new updates to stagnate you so new players can catch will be introduced if you try to get ahead at all.
First raiding was introduced but with rank modifers to keep the higher ranks from raiding (they were in at the begining wernt they ?), it was supposed to give small players a chance, but it doesnt as much larger players simply exploite it by dropping rank, even paying to have their mothership massed to drop rank, and raiding really low. Oh, and small players still havent suddenly caught up.
Planets were introduced to give small players a chance. Instead big players farm good planets from the small players, and wipe them out if they try to take it bacl. Planets still havent allowed small players to catch up (far from it, as the large players simply have more to invest in them)
Now fourm is saying his going to split main into several differnt realms (look in upcoming uupdates section, if you cant find it, press the delete account button ingame).
Essently, the rules of the game will be alterd so that people get some penalties for an illusion (cauee thats all it is) of saftey to build up.
Guess what, it wont let the small players catch up suddenly.
This game is in a downward spiral.
The problem ? Whining. On a scale thats a microcosm of real life.
Simply put; theres the haves (those that have been playing hard for a long time to get were theyre at) and the have nots (those that are newer to the game, or have squanderd their chances to grow).
The have nots are, just like in real life to an extent, calling for the evil rich people to be punished for all the work (time and effort) they put into the game.
What we have now is a game were theres NO POINT in trying to grow big over 100mil army, as plauge kicks in. Its more economical to say screw it and sell your naq and UU for cash at this point rather than truley playing the game that much.
What we have is people that, rather than working hard at the game like the older players (those that predate raiding by a while) had to do. (hell, I remember a time well before raiding and miners when 10k raw UP seemed like an awsome stat)
What we have is people trying to grow by whining for 'updates' that really do nothing other than pass the buck to a few months later when people realize that the same people mostly are still on the top and we need a new update to 'even things up'
So added up what do we have ? A game in a downward spiral.
Quit the whining people. People work hard to grow big. Rather than try to get some update to grow big just take the time and wait.
Keep getting massed, keep out of the way and stay quiet. Sorry, but if you piss people off when you cant afford to its GOING to hurt. Go up to a biker bar and say their bikes suck, you're gona get stomped.
And dont say random massings, thats a greater risk for big players. The bigger players are a much smaller % of the game, and therefore the odds of a bigger player getting massed randomly are actualy higher than some small player way down in the ranks.
This is a war game, accounts will get broke. But it relies on your skill (thats right, skill still cant trump over stats in this game, for now at least) to make sure your account can survive.
Basicly this all boils down to this.
Quit whining that theres someone bigger, theres always a bigger fish. And that fish usualy woked hard for it. over a long period of time.
Do the same, and you'll eventualy catch up, not by whining for updates that further ruin this game.
