Get people to carry on playing

@Foulsham: I disagree completely with the idea of a race swap with keeping anything at all. The idea is very unbalanced and doesn`t really fix or accomplish anything but that`s just my opinion.

@Carnage: I agree with you completely

@Baa: ugh wtf

@Tauren: too aggressive old friend it would be an early grave for all of GC and TB would become non existent. Folks from slow may show up at your house looking for payback.

We have made changes to the game,tweeks here and there based on server activity because let`s face it same old rules and rewards just won`t work on a server with only 10% of it`s former player base online. I have tried suggesting some events in the meantime until we hear back from her highness on the new updates but have not heard anything yet.

@Foulsham thats ridiculous.

Lets punish the person who put in a year of digging and the guy who had the same land after a weekend of exploring? Lets let him keep it.

i was being sarcastic asmo

might as well just remove races yeah save restarting all together ? change research so u choose a research race path, as a matter of fact just remove research all together also while were at it give every 1 instant ships and tech >.>"

keeping planets is tough, else I would change to guard with lots of 5k loyalty planets. Keeping the infrastructure research is probably the only thing that should be allowed to go to the new empire. And a free itech library thing so you can change what it is in when you change race.

That Sounds like a good idea Im Basically done with this game Ill just stay in VM until something Drastic Changes

foulsham, I guess Im not understanding...are you saying that someone with a 100k land large would lose around 90k on their large, but someone with 10 larges at 10k wouldnt lose anything?

Pretty ridiculous bud. ANd lets face it, even IF you could keep your planets, theyd be within a specific range so you would lose half your land in those bogus larges you have

Baa agrees? What manner of sorcery is this?

@foulsham,

If youre losing the land, why do you think you need to keep the planets?

I think we need an iQuit tech lol

i really like it. implement it will be great for the game

@Tauren Force restart all empire will solve nothing if you dont fix the issue that cause the problems.

Example :::
Game = Car
Problem = Axle
Your solution = replace tire, for wear and tear, but you dont fix the axle that cause the problem to begin with lmao.

@Tauren, I agree but I think that would need to be done on a new server rather than this one.

@Foulsham, Im ok with it being a project that costs like 10 bucks (same with i tech for infra). I dont think you should get to keep planets though. Literally just x percentage of infra, making it like a boosted restart. I could also see an argument for keeping artifacts up to the maximum current caps (so if you had grandfathered pile of artis, youd lose any over current max).


I definitely think its a fine idea. If youre losing everything but infra and maybe some artis, I could see it being worth the purchase without being really abusable. Like if someone decides to change rance once a week, its not really hurting anyone, and the game devs can make a few bucks off them.

On a similar note, I think requirements for i tech library (change infra) should be lowered. The turn requirements for a high infra player are frankly absurd. Drop the turn requirement massively and just make it 30 day or 60 day cool down or something instead.

Would be better if UW fully force restarted all empires.. that would solve a lot of imbalances and would make things much more interesting...and maybe do a Npc UW every so often if no one atempts in a while.. it’s boring everyone super rich

...any reason you`re a sheep?

Baa?

baa baa baa baa baa

Problem there is, some people wouldn`t like to lose all the land they put on the planets. However, it`s somewhat a good idea to remove that land if you had to race swap cause if you left it, and, say, ThatOneNewb changed to Terran with a Fert, bam, domination of the market would begin.

Overall, I like this idea.
