Game News!

[Mr President]

(copied from in game news)

Sadly the release of the new attack called Bombing Run (BR) will be pushed
back till the May Set. Further testing is needed. We want to get it as
close to perfect as we can before we add it to the game.

The United Nations features will also be added in the May set.

I would also like to announce that all the past scores have been revamped
and is now open. You are able to look at top 10 states/nations, past rounds
states/nations scores and also all the links for member listings and
overviews are up and running too. It's much nicer then the previous setup.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Changes for April Set-
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*** Sanction Costs ***

Sanction costs have been lowered. It will now only cost 10k per state per
day to keep sanctions in place. It also only takes 300,000 points instead
of 500,000 to be able to declare them.



*** Training Nation (auto join) ***

The training nation was set up for new members to join and learn how to
play. It was not intended for restarts to hide and build up in and then
jump tag to go back to war. So due to continuous abuse of the training
nation, i have had to make some changes. From now on, only new members who
have been in the game 30 days or less will be able to see the link for the
auto join. All others have to either apply or have the pass to enter the
nation.



*** Vacation Mode ***

Vacation mode was created for those members who were not going to be able
to run there state due to being away for a extended per of time. In the
past many have used it as a war tactic. Although they were not breaking any
rules, it is still kind of a shady act to pull. So in order to take care of
this situation, you are no longer able to go into vacation mode if your
nation is or has war preps against you or is or at war with another nation.


Here is to another set, good luck to everyone!

i actually went on vacation :/ i guess now i cant without my state being killed

[Mr President]

Vacations are planned in advance. If you know your going on one, speak with your leader and plan your wars around them.

Just seems to me that If even a Minorty Cry enough about somethign it gets changed....

and to ur above post wat if we are netting and we get hit.... i wont be able to go into vacation mode now....



Things like this is why The game wont turn around and will continue to die

[Xavior]

Thanks for the great work, Pres!

[Mr President]

Actually it has been on my list since about the 2nd set of the game coming back. It's just one of those things that gets buried and forgotten about. With what happened last set, it reminded me. And seeing the other changes were not going in the game, i had spare time

and to ur above post wat if we are netting and we get hit.... i wont be able to go into vacation mode now....

This could be why it needs to be changed in the first place.

Things like this is why The game wont turn around and will continue to die

Why is it when people don't get there way this is the first thing that they say?

There are hundreds of thousands of other online games on the net today. We compete against these day in and day out. We compete against xbox, PS3 and all the other systems with mega sweet graphics. Perhaps these are reasons games die.. cause i'm pretty sure making it so states can't go into vacation mode during a war is pretty low on the list of reasons why games die.

[Hoebawt]

its not about the Vacation that makes the game die Mr P... Its about How a minority does enough crying and whining that then leads to unnecessary change... Vacations were fine for the past 6 years all of a sudden coz a few girls cry it gets changed...

Maybe u guys are approaching the Marketing the wrong way... most of those other online games have hundreds of players... why dont we.. which once had thousands.... Where did we go wrong to lose players? Wat are we doing wrong to not gain players? There has to be something here that is the reason we lost that huge base or and are keeping new ppl away.... Wat?

Like i said, it has been on my list.. But the few girls that cried last set is what reminded me to fix it this set.

[Hoebawt]

ok i read that.. but Why change it all... if its been fine for the past years
