I think this game as become the most boring one out here....due to caps.
Even old players which are well known for being 1 of the best players in the game (corkscrew) is even quiting due to being bored....reason for the is CAPS!!!!
Ever since I went over 75mill to 100mill..I cant do anything without great loses, if I mass...I cant buy my uu back I have to wait days to get it back from UP....if i mass a big defence...which costs me millions of uu.
So what do you think about the game since you went over 75mill army size?
**Filtered**? BORING? EVEN MORE **Filtered**?

Well if corky didnt spend lots of dollars on uu he wouldnt of been there so quick
I dont actually mind the caps.. i quite like them. there is no end to UU anyway, because we can just move over the 100mil limit like STI for one has done. If everyone else did it too then there would be no problem.

say STI massed me costing him 3mill uu to repair his supers...how would he able get them back.....
just because admin is thinking about making $$$$...if new players think they can catch up because there is caps...they will buy SS/USS, meaning admin is making more $$'s, where as he is making the game boring for older players.
also, ever since i went over the 75mill limit i havnt massed as many people as i used to because i no ill have to wait for UP which takes to long!!!!

I've always said that the caps should be on a sliding scale - or percentage like g&r points are....
ie: when a certain percentage of players reach the caps, then they are increased by a certain amount....
so when 0.1% of players reach 50mil army size, all caps are increased by 10%....or something like that.
Lets face it - there always will be players with larger army sizes - trying to hold them up for too long is just silly. Yes we should have some form of caps, but they should evolve as the players do....
IMO

The caps need to be raised. The whole point was to give smaller players a chance to catch up.
Fact is they did catch up
Fact is the game has evolved a lot since the caps were put in place
Fact is the average army sizes are a lot bigger now
So yes, it must be frustrating as hell for someone like Corkscrew who already was at the limit when that update came out.

There is NO answer to the problem, because there isnt a problem.
THERE IS NO CAP.
You can still move over 50mil, 75mil, 100mil 150mil etc.
Its not a cap, its a cap because you dont want to move over it.
Thats not the games fault its your choice. Your not telling me if you had 150mil army you couldnt use it to build your planet up enough to give you 1mil+ uu a day.
If corlscrew had built over the cap when it first came out he'd probably be over 200mil by now within his account, he choose not to, simple.
SGW never used to be with trading UU and crap... its called stratagy if you dont want to lose 3mil because you cant get em back quickly then dont do it.
And btw they wont catch up to you, because they'd still have to go thrut eh same thing, its common sense people.
Simple.

Phoenix has a point there........the game isn´t boring and really for some players it´s better to stay under 50 or 75 mio uu because they can get uu back a lot easier.........
if u don´t want to lose your 3 mio then don´t go into war and have a great acount just sitting there........
Or simply make a higher up.....you have surely 10 up planets...upgrade them......if minimum of each will be 50k with your own you can get over 500 mio a day.....what it is compared too the lose of those 3 mio??NOTHING
Mass someone........rebuild..use your income to upgrade your stats,till that time you can get back the uu and fight again.....maybe it wouldn´t be boring if u didn´t care for your uu so much.......
Eventually there will be time when you will be out of the wars for atleast a month,with a up of 500k like i said you will have 15 mio uu back so where is the point????
The game is boring for you because you are making it boring for yourself,i recommend you make a higher up and you will see that you will rebuild faster and have more fun if u really want it

This is rediculous, basically by removing the caps now, forum is saying he gave these peoeple a chance to catch up to the top people, but now no one else can.
Also, I think the whole point of the cap is to mean, okay you can no longer grow unless you grow fast, so stay under the cap, sell your UU buy UP and UP planets untill you can handle the cap and then charge ahead. Forum has introduced part of the game just like any other, get used to it, there's been no other feature where after a year he's decided okay, time to remove that.
And as for the, lets hear from over 75mills only please, that's bull> "Okay, lets discuss this, but only people who are adversely affected should be allowed to comment" of course the majority will say remove it, this cap affects everyone, because by pulling you back its pushing others up.

it's not about removing them... it's more about raising them which would make perfect sense because the average army sizes ARE bigger now so it's kind of silly to keep the cap at the same level...

Im no where near the cap but i agree they need to be raised for the ones who are there, else the game will stop growing and people will get bored and quit. 25mill every 4months seems ok.
