(note: if you total population size is greater than 198,356,164 disease will surely strike your lands. Above 148,767,123 and raiding is no longer possible. Above 99,178,082 and trading/buying units no longer possible. Pergatory is not accessible above 49,589,041)
thoughts??

presonally, i say ........ lets all watch the server run out of AT's

lol

You went and mucked it up again, when are you ever going to learn admin. no warning, no mention anywhere, just shoved it in there. Probably decided it in taht admin chat last night from views of about 20people.

Does this mean Perg can now have people in it with larger army sizes ? If so why on earth did I sell Units to stay there!

I gotta say this update puts a very depressing view on everybody not currently around 60mil army
This should soon make it so people around even my size (30mil army ish) cannot buy UU at all because the larger folks will have seemingly limitless buying capability.
Does anybody else agree with me on this one? I figured the game was going fine as it was, larger army size players had a significant advantage but weren't quite able to dominate the little guy until around now.

I agree with said statements.
This appears to just make the larger players larger, and make it even harder for the little guy to have a fighting chance.

i agree, the game was fine as it was. now the small guys dont have a chance, they wont be able to afford the ATs as the prices will shoot up, and they will have to settle for less uu when they do manage to scrape up afew turns

this update was announced ages ago in the upcomeing updates section. you all had your chance to complain and say you didn't want it, so waiting till now to complain is pointless--its already done. and just like all the other updates in the game, either adapt or leave.

This update sucks. Yeah it helps the larger players, but since when do they need help? This update makes it impossible for the little guys to catch up.

An update that I find quite beneficial. I'll be at 50m soon so being able to buy UU past that is... handy.
It is however, a bad idea on the whole. As has been mentioned, the larger players will benefit a whole lot more from this than the little guys. Larger players with more buying power means that smaller players are going to have more trouble getting UU, and as mentioned AT.
Oh well.

Yep you're right, now that admin dug himself a hole, he might as well enlarge it with this update.

Honestly this update has been due a while now. The game well expanded beyond those caps.
The 'little guys' always had a chance to catch up, now it's easier than ever (ok, the new caps make it a bit harder...). It's just what you make out of your options.
And I'm not just saying that, half a year ago I was a small player, and now I've been stuck at the 75mil cap for a couple of weeks already...
