DeadlyMilkMan 2008-01-13 |  | Force Restart GCRT |  | Clearly the NPCs cant even set off a UW from 2 billion power... the rich are not going to get knocked down and the power structure has been the same for months and months. Its about time the admin simply hit the switch and restart everything. Maybe that would create a rush enough to revive the stale game? Try it. |

EvilAbadayos 99+ day(s) ago | talkijng of restarts DMM.... |
BHunter007 99+ day(s) ago | Because you get restarted so often? |
Jericho 99+ day(s) ago | lol just create a second rt server which resets every 3 months all except infralevels |
Global}{Galactica 99+ day(s) ago | That is bull.... Only becuz we play this game and supported it for at leat 2,5years or longer and spend a whole lot of time building up our empires we should be punished cuz some ppl.. who always restart becuz they cannot go all the way?
Neva... Join the the empires on top by doin the same what we did the last years clicking buttons except the restarting one. |
bipbippy 99+ day(s) ago | because you`re bored |
Sweetestdownfall 99+ day(s) ago | yeah..and this will also give more value to controlling the ranks..
I guess the thing would be what you gonna get out of a successful UW?
if your empire is 3 years old and have maxed out research.why would you wanna restart? |
BHunter007 99+ day(s) ago | Lol. Interesting. |
UberPansy 99+ day(s) ago | Sweetestdownfall: o.O... that`s a really good idea! |
Sweetestdownfall 99+ day(s) ago | i agree with the 24 hour UW thingy..but if you can do it..id rather it still last 48..
the first 24 after activating it, the server will just see that Extremely Urgent warning..
but nobody can attack it yet..unless their in range.
then after the first 24 the next 24 is when the battle happens..
this will minimize..lets just wait for the defenders/atackers to go offline..
with smaller timeframe to make or break UW alot more fights ought to happen. |
bipbippy 99+ day(s) ago | someone should ask him |
DarckKnight 99+ day(s) ago | the problem is, stephen probably coded this game in a way if you change for a server you change for every other server |
metatron 99+ day(s) ago | my uw idear was only for rt not the other server`s, their limits on turns so 48 hours is just fine rt turns come quick so so should the uw 24 hours would bring a little more spice too it. |
bipbippy 99+ day(s) ago | Yes I should have been more specific about my agreeing with Metatron about shortening the UW --- it should be on RT only. There`s no need to do it on the slower servers.
And more of an incentive to get the job done would be good too. Right now you get to restart as any playable race, but if you`re unpaid, it`s still an unpaid account. Maybe make the incentive an actual month paid account.
I also think that when you activate your UW - it should NOT take away all your BTCs. |
Maraudian 99+ day(s) ago | now if i was playing i believe i would enjoy something like asmodai UW not only for the fact its something to do but the fact i can improve my already perfect empire and have fun , and seems gc has great potential and balance , my empire wopuld remain balanced and anyone could simply steal all my effort etc |
Maraudian 99+ day(s) ago | if i wanted an UW to go off , it would go off , end of story , my intention was for people to have fun , blow some credits rather than quit out of boredom
my empire is perfect so i dont play it anymore, my usual stance was restart once a week and remake a perfect empire for fun , but yar im lucky to use 45 turns a day |
Angst 99+ day(s) ago | How about 3 simultaneous NPC UW`s at 2Bil PR? I don`t think the server can stop that??? Or Automatically start 1 or 2 NPC UW`s automatically when someone starts another UW. IThe restart idea has my vote, but the game is already too small for someone to be making restart decisions. At least in an UW you can fight for what you have you know???? Just UW the hell out of RT and it`s bound to happen come on do it NOW |
DeadlyMilkMan 99+ day(s) ago | I dont advocate a routine restart, I suggest one right now and not another until deemed necessary. |
VampireOfTheNight 99+ day(s) ago | I joined this game because there is know hard restart, if their is.. That it i`ll be gone, and gc with it.. As the amount of complaint`s stephen will have, and refunds because the game doesent do what it says.. The only way he can get round it, would be to close GC.. So trust me, Hard Reset is not-smart, ppl didnt spend hours of their day too see their empire restarted..
However the Change in UW.. Is good.... or why dont the ppl of RT pick one person to do a UW, and everyone support him.. = no opponents apart from maybe new players.. = easy run |
Pandy 99+ day(s) ago | I would recommend that RT be held seperate from other speeds in any long term planned for ideas.
since 90% of gc plays RT not slower servers. For example I would agree UW time reduction on gc.rt is fine and dandy, but on slower servers its hardly necessary, and gc slow its just ridiculous.
What would be really nice though, is that when one is done, the gc server doesn`t break like a egg. That artis could be used on all speeds still, that a admin didn`t have to manually refresh the server half a dozen times to ensure its working again. |
Travvivian 99+ day(s) ago | Or perhaps add more incentives? |
