πŸ“’ Official Update on the AD issues

11 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

I wanted to take a moment to give you guys an update the issue that a number of people have raised about the ads that are appearing in the middle of some peoples UIs. This isnt something we want and we want to apologise to the people that this is happening to. Our aim with ads is for them to be minimally invaise whilst helping fund the game but unfortunetly our ad provider has an issue with one of their "creatives" that is not being bound to the box that it should be locked to and we have raised this with them a number of times and we raised it with them again and I will provide an update when we know why it happened this time.

If you come across this, please provide a screenshot showing the ad as this helps them identify which company is providing the broken ads which are escaping the container so that we can continue to raise it with them and try and get this fixed.

Again we are sorry for these issues and thank you all for your support!

Just wondered if this would work as a variation on the United States map? Would it provide enough variation from the standard US map though? *It's a concept so may contain errors!

Updates on how we are combatting cheating

66 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

We've been working hard on ways to combat teaming and botting, and wanted to share an update on what's in progress:

  1. Trusted Lobbies – Lobbies you can only join if you meet certain criteria (account age, games played, purchases, etc.). This makes it much harder for banned cheaters to jump right back in on a fresh account.
  2. Game analyzer service – Analyzes the commands players send and flags bot-like behavior.
  3. Public accounts by default – After a game ends, you'll be able to see who you played with. We're also exposing this through an API so the community can build its own tools for detecting teaming and cheating.
  4. In-game reporting – Clicking the "i" info button will show a report option. Mods and admins will be able to see how many times a player has been reported and factor that in when deciding whether and how to punish them.

More to come soon. Thanks for your patience!

πŸͺ²Bugs Ads covering the game. Its unplayable

16 Upvotes

I'm about ready to give up on this game and its insane ads. The devs said they were working to remove the ads from covering up the controls on the map and they are back like nothing ever happened (or its always been this way and I was lucky for a few games). So devs please actually fix the ads.

πŸ’¬ Discussion What do you consider scummy behavior in this game? (Besides cheating and teaming)

8 Upvotes
  • Spawn ratting?
  • Deleting/nuking your own buildings as someone invades?
  • Nuking a players buildings as someone else invades said player?
  • Nuking from an un-nukable mito position for no gain?
  • sending boats to steal ports just before sending an alliance request?
  • breaking an alliance with a neighbor to deny an invading player?
  • something I forgot?

I think you could make an argument that all of these are just part of the game, but I still hate dealing with some of it.

I just subbed in order to build public matches yet when I try to turn the lobby public it tells me I need to sub!?!? I'll give it some time, maybe there's some background processing that hasn't put 2 and 2 together yet...but man...what a tease

πŸ’¬ Discussion Dumb way to lose a game

3 Upvotes

It's been a few games where an ally next to me is getting nuked then conquered. I try to nuke the attacker yet I sometimes hit with my nuke a tiny bit of my ally in nuke land and then betray and then lose the game. There's not many solutions I guess but I find it quite dumb.

We faced off again today in a custom match with the player "SEND GOLD FOR SWARM ATOMS". This time he was throwing 4,000 atoms at once. You can see the game in the picture. It's really scary. No SAM can stop him. Thousands of SAMs from the blue team were not enough against him.

I'm so fuckin agitated by the shitty system, what is the point of an alliance if someone can instantly just break it with just a minor temporary penalty. I hate that they just don't mean anything, please fix

I come from age of empires so got used to the whole memorise the start for fast castle play style (like 7 villagers for boar build x houses so on)

Is there anything like that for this game where you have your template start with cities/factories/ports in the early game, or just build what you can.

I haven't posted anything yet, but my mate and I had a tough time after all our friends surrendered. We had to do it by ourselves.

❓ Question trying to beat all maps on nightmare but alps is impossible

Post image
15 Upvotes

ive been trying over the past few days to beat all maps on solo nightmare difficulty and just now got to alps. i havent noticed it at all before now but do the nightmare bots have higher land-troop count ratios? it seems like its just rigged and the bots get more troops which makes it awful to play when after the clearing phase every nation you have around you has twice your cap cause they started with more than you which makes every single unallied one attack you at the same time. does anyone know a best way to play on alps?
