Administrators Popular Post Alex Posted March 6, 2018 Administrators Popular Post Share Posted March 6, 2018 I am going to remove all of the Trial Changes in the most recent update except for the Econ update. After listening to the feedback here and on Discord, I have decided it was too hasty to try and force those live for testing. Obviously they all have different consequences, and it is a lot to try and stick in the game without any testing. My fear was simply that without some additional changes, nations may be too vulnerable with just the war changes that were tested, and that perhaps I and others had made an oversight during the two tournaments of testing. In any case, I apologize for the 'scare' for many of you, and I promise I do listen to player feedback and my intent is not to, uh, destroy the game and force you all to quit or whatever you think it may be sometimes. 52 Is there a bug?

Buorhann Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Thank you. The War changes themselves pretty much gutted the whole system. I'd rather test them out before we implement in here. 2 Warrior of Dio https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfPCFQfOnLg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really appreciate the willingness to reverse the initial decision as you said it would have been too much to change suddenly. It had sent a lot of people into panic about random impactful changes.

I want to comment on how immature this entire episode has been but at least you did the right thing. Is it immature to have done all of this just to finally post something that would get a lot of upvotes? Kidding. You're right, it was foolish of me to try and force something like this without due process and full consideration of all of the potential consequences. 10 Is there a bug?

Spaceman Thrax Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 It's very difficult and sorta noble to reverse course rather than just bluster your way though something. Particularly when, essentially, your work is being attacked. Cheers for that. Everyone appreciates the effort.

RightHonorable Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 I would make that comment, but there hasn't been any deflation after the so-called "great deflation", all there has been since was inflation 1 Haatyc or'arue jate'shya ori'sol aru'ike nuhaatyc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theodosius Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Props for reversing. I think that the resource change is the only good one. I'm not sure if it's a whole fix but it means more and cheaper resources which results into less stagnation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
