Omg, can you just quit with that stupid TOgoingdownhill thing??? Its soo annoying. If you don't like it, just get out of the freaking game! Geez! Plus, your wrong, most of the staff readily answer almost all PMs. Otherwise, they're just too busy.

How about No :) ?

 

Do I worng ? I haven't talked about other Moderators, Admins, I talked about Seymon. I think that you're worng, Kid.

When I open the "Missions" box, during a battle, to check on how many more of something (collect boost boxes, kill noobs, etc.) I need to do, it takes me about one half of an instant to determine I need three more "capture points" to complete my mission and earn my reward. Then I have to move my mouse way down to the bottom right corner of the mouse pad to "CLOSE" the display. Please, PLEASE move the close button to the top, Just under the "Missions" box.

 

And it would be nice if the "DO YOU WANT TO STAY IN THE GAME......." Question box that we have to use when we go to the "GARAGE" during a game was right under the "GARAGE" box. Centering it in the screen is "Artsy Craftsy" programming, but I'm here to kill tanks and drive "noobs" to distraction so they buy crystals.

 

Thanks for the reordering of things in the garage display. I think it is an improvement. But there is still stuff there I would like in a storage shed because I will never buy, or will never use again (like some paints).

So I've been playing CP for a while now with these changes. My verdict is that the changes are bad :(. For example, earlier I was in a 3x3 Island CP, but only 2 on each team. My team were winning a lot and had held the point the vast majority of the 10 minutes of the 15 minute battle. Then 5 minutes before the end, one more person joins on the other team and they all drug. I drug too to make it less unfair. But the score: 48-0. So we were winning most of the game, but got *zero* at the end. Unlike most of the battle, they were able to keep and hold the point consistently, rather than it swapping between teams more earlier on.

 

Some people would say that the stronger team won - but that's missing the point. The balance of the game is now entirely shifted to the last 5 minutes of the battle. What happens before that is irrelevant. This makes CP ripe for invaders. The purpose of the update was meant to even out the teams, but it has perversely made it worse - a battle that was even most of the time got lost disproportionately.

 

I had been open-minded, but having actually played quite a lot of CP battles now, it's clear the CP update is a FAIL. Need it be entirely reverted? That would be better than at present - as others pointed out, why not make CTF mean capping a flag deducts a cap from the other team? It's the same bad logic. But at the very least, don't make the rate of point loss the *same* as the rate of point gain. Make it half or less, so the losing team still has hope, but it doesn't skew the whole battle.

 

Until there are changes, I will be avoiding CP.

Use the enter key instead of clicking. It solves both problems.

So, I had an idea, what if there was a button at the end of the garage categories that would let you see the garage sorted as it used to be, Special, Weapons, Hulls, then Paints, but paints strongest first, weakest last. I think this will help people get used to the new garage system, or let people use the garage the old way. I personally like the garage the way it used to be, and I believe other people do too. Thanks for reading, sorry for any spelling mistakes. :)

Hi everyone!

 

Today I came up with this really nub brilliant idea that will help us in saving our time in places where we are required to change our combo immediately. For example in clan wars, where we tend to change from Attacker to Defender, or any other, in case there is a problem.

 

Behold, the Saved Kits.

- Please don't mind my noob photo-shopping skills.

 

The "Saved Kits" tab will be just ahead of the "Kits" tab in the garage. Although, because of my not-so-pro photo-shopping skills, I'll be placing it ahead of the "Special" tab. The picture of Saved Kit will be like any other Kit. For instance, you saved BP. The picture will be Wasp-Railgun-Any BP Paint.

 

The TO news actually interviewed me, discussing with me the advantages of this tab, to which I replied:

 

          "The Saved Kits tab will be the most used tab after its launch in, idk, when the devs see this topic. This will save our time. How? Lets see.

 

You are in a clan war. Suddenly, your Defender leaves. You have 3 attackers but 2 defenders only. The Captain believes that 2 attackers are still going to do the job, so he tells you to switch to Defender. You press Garage. What feels like an eternity later, it opens. You then go to Turrets, swipe forward and then click on Thunder. Then you click on Hulls, go the last end and then equip Mammoth. Then you go to Paints, then you swipe and swipe, but unfortunately, you swiped to fast and the bar ends on Africa. You then gaze that paint in awe for 2 minutes. Then you come back to your senses and equip Emerald. Finally, you are able to click outside the Garage and return to battle.

 

All in the time of your combo changing, your clan has lost 12-3. You have been banned from the clan.

 

What you could've done was, to go to the Saved Kits tab, click on Thunder-Mammoth-Emerald/Kit 1, click Equip and then return to battle. What a time saver it would've been!

 

Now choose; beer a war hero or a ban?"

So I've been playing CP for a while now with these changes. My verdict is that the changes are bad :(. 

I completely agree and would like to add the following logical conclusion. The current setup for CP destroys the fighting spirit when teams are actually balanced. If the CPs are mostly balanced then the leading team always has the dsadvantage. Making the score seesawing across multiple lead changes, and only the time limit can end a game, with in effects an almost random outcome. I don't like the idea of playing a games and having the winning team picked at RANDOM.

Great! Now games with 1 control point will be much more challenging! And the paint preview is a nice opportunity for people like me who like to buy paints for their awesome look to see what it will look like before buying.

Hey pal, I thought I was the first one to come up with equipment presets...I said that we could save certain load-outs and have them selectable as a button...

Jesus Christ the new CP system is so bad that I can't even.

In a 15 minutes Polygon battle my team owns the other team, we hold the point for 11 minutes. Then the opposite team all starts drugging, take and hold the point for 4 minutes and win. 

So I played and hustled 11 minutes for nothing.

It is clear that the new system encourages and favors druggers.

 

Thanks Obama!
