So to have a bit of MW related fun, when I have time I will create some questions based on the past of MW.. It may be event, player faction ect. related

I'll not bother with numerous threads but will post the additional questions here in a larger than normal font..

This is just a bit of fun and continuing to go with the memory lane threads..

I invite the community mods to join in the fun and be part of the community.. Who will come top.. I have a feeling I know who will ;)

I agree, Devin it was.........
THEGREE named a large unit after Devin for his fine work and his willingness to spend to help others.
As with good, soon comes bad, THEGREE then did the thing to Devin that must never be typed on THEGREE forums.

Here's one of Devin's final posts..

It was a shame that Devin had a terrible unit named after him, outted some hackers and was therefore banned.. But he was let back, but the mod actions had left its mark.. Wonder how much those actions cost Gree..... No Devin, no walkthroughs, less gold spending....

But be was truly a helpful player that aided many on the forums..



Question 2

Can anyone give me a brief history of the "Transport Raider" .. This I think is harder.... No cheating now :)

Transport Raider, I think it was a good unit from a mission map and players used the android energy glitch to farm them. One guy got banned because he farmed 2.5k of them.

Agent Orange

The Transport Raider was a loot unit that most of us farmed back in the day because it gave us a good boost. What made it notorious was that through the energy glitch you could amass hundreds of them.

I think I see a trend here, Alex what are 'things that can get you banned from Modern War'.... :p

Very quickly answered again. Some good memories .. It was a loot drop..

The transport raider:
http://s23.postimg.org/k1o2ksn2z/Modern_war_transport_raider_Flickr_Photo_S.jpg

Isn't it amazing. I had many of these units. When I first started modern war I was on android and for a long time it was a 100% drop rate. Some took it a bit far and loaded out their remaining army with these units. Now, here's the amazing thing for people newish to the game.. When you had a few 1000 of these you were STRONG.. so strong that some were banned for glitching.. nowadays
, even with an entire army of these, one loot drop of an Epic Boss will defeat them all.

Pity we haven't pulled the player mods into our little game yet, but the next question could be answered by one of them :)

Question 3
Very very few people will know this. About a year ago, during different administration, there was a slight blossoming of an idea.
Something that may have become something more... but it never did.
Our departed CMs had a vision..
It was a simple idea... How could the community have a better involvement...
The answer -- Per game, arrange for a group of trusted gamers.. A committee, lets say, who would represent a player majority.. Not Gree employees, not even Player MODs.. just regular Joe Public.. This committee would be able to have open communication with the DEVs at Gree... It would have allowed for a two way conversation..

However it, never came to fruition.. But it did get as far as confirming that 3 people would initially be asked.. I believe one even was asked and sadly declined due to work constraints..

My Question - Who do you think these three people were??

Hehe, the mighty health boost, 30%, (from Greenland WD? or was it Brazil?)
Many hacked this unit, some had hundreds, if not thousands, gave an unfair advantage for a while. I presume all the SUPs got it, it made a huge difference.

spot Although some people where found to have 2000+ of them.. However they were soon banned...

It became a sought after thing, so much so that it was a treasure item on the black market trade. One can only hope that the underlying account found in this link was identified.. http://modernwarforum.com/forum/index.php?styleid=64?topic=11724.0 ..

Question 7

What is the "Fountain of Youth"?

From October 2014 "players appreciation month"
it was the "winner" among other of the "design an item" for the Game and gree was suppose to make it..............ETA is estimated to be.........the day before gree shuts down the game

Item/Unit Name: Fountain Of Youth

-Fountain of Youth- Health Regeneration. "A man sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices his money to recuperate his health." Probably the most enticing potential new building in the game. A true gem and challenge that all can aspire to obtain. As such as the Red Light District This building will work in 2% increments for quicker for health Regen. (lvl 10 is 20%)

Purchase Price 750 Million (1 Available)

PS: we have better chances at finding the real fountain of youth before gree makes this one

A small edit regarding Q4 and the P91... During the early days of WD the top3 rewards were pure boosts and not units... Hence, the rewardlist for WD Brazil looked like this :

Top1 +2 building upgrade
Top2 +20% building output
Top3 +15% building output
Top10 P91 +30% Health regen

Supergirl was one of the best MW players, ever.
She created a faction of people opposed to PUN.
She got people of varying views to unite against PUN.
SUPER FACTION would have eventually defeated PUN.
SUPER FACTION had a very strict code for their players.

She was the bane of many PUN tappers.

She was above all else smart, clever, honest, fair, and became a true friend.
She, much like Ferry, was unceremoniously removed from the leadership position due to the stupidity and greed of those she once thought we're her friends.

Seems like back then there were some weasels in country. The faction I was in had it's two who tried to stab the faction leader in the back every chance they got. Of course when I outed them they slithered off but it created a split that the faction never really recovered from. In many ways the game was a lot more interesting back then.

Yes PUN was number one. However unless I've just lost my mind which is entirely possible these days SF cannot possibly have been #3 because I've never been a part of SF and I was a member of the third place faction in WD #1. As a matter of fact I also don't recall Ferr being in MW back then unless he was playing as someone else and FE is the newer name for the #2 faction.

Maverick should hopefully remember this, as well as Dew since the good General was a principal of PUN.

Actually the reason I brought this up is because I've been wracking my brain for the past couple of days trying to remember what the name of the faction was that I was in back then, the name changed to Maverick's Rangers but what the heck was it originally called…. :confused:

I may be wrong but i found that link via this link

Seems like back then there were some weasels in country. The faction I was in had it's two who tried to stab the faction leader in the back every chance they got. Of course when I outed them they slithered off but it created a split that the faction never really recovered from. In many ways the game was a lot more interesting back then.

Did we every get an answer to who the top 3 factions were in the very first WD. The #1 faction is easy....

LOL, treachery and foul deeds were indeed part of the early days of MW.

Maverick, another fine man, a true gentleman in EVERY respect.

He was also a very astute student of this game, and very accomplished strategist.

There was also MINER, a very classy gentleman, and very warm, big hearted man.

He, too, was another knowledgeable game player!!!

The date of that first entry seems much newer then I recall. First WDs should have occurred in 2012 and I'm pretty sure CCM would have predated CJ and the problem was Funzio nuked the old forum around the time they sold to gree so a lot of history was lost.

Yes Miner was another of the great players back then, Tate, and Tanner were also faction mates. Dug up my old gropeme chats and the faction I'm thinking of might have been REG.

Yes AO it was REG as I was there for that first WD. Then after "some discussion" some of us left to form ACE.

Hi Agent Orange, I have the records of (almost) all wars from day 1 in my archives and I'm afraid Captain Steelman is correct with his top 3...

Any forum nukage occurred before the last quarter of 2012, and before factions began, which was also at the close of 2012. The first WD was in very early 2013. You are right in that the list was started well after the first WD, by about 9 months.

I do know where AO is coming from thou (I think)... I was surprised to see Superfaction is the original list..

I know factions were around for many a month before the first wd.. And before that, crate events were are way of competing.

But what confuses my memory, was i remember have a discussion after the second WD with a few members in my faction and in=BRAVO= and they were talking about forming a collected faction to try to get to the top.. That faction was Superfaction.. I almost seem to remember to maybe a 1/3 of Bravo helped form it... But how could that be it is already existed... Or was the first "Merge" of the game?

As far as winners go thou, I wasn't that interested in the leaderboard at the start.. Even then I was a little bit cautious about what was happening to the game, so I can only go by the forums (but I do think the forums were nuked before WDs started)

One way to know for sure if AO was in the #3 faction during WD in Brazil is for him to look in his "bonus list" and find the "Brazil Prime Minister Production" bonus... (+15% building output)

Anyway, I know for sure Superfaction ranked #3 in Brazil and all other WDīs there after up to the "merger" with PUN... During this time every attack in the WD also showed up in the news feed so I could visit the base of everyone that attacked me and "chat" with them on their walls... This was a rare opportunity for me to chat with topplayers since most of them were close to lv200 and I was only lv70+. Therefore I could never find them in the rivalslist...

DocBot was not around so scouting was the way to find targets... Ferr always scouted the entire teams and we saved the intel in our chatapp ( Teamspeak)... Hence, it was fun to visit players of both PUN and SF after the WD, by searching in the newsfeed, and congrats them to their 1īst and 3īrd rank... What happend below top3 was never something I paid attention to since the game was all about to keep SF behind us and chase PUN...

Well, thats my 2 cents...

Question 9

Nowadays we recive boost units with +2% Sea Attack, +5% building output and so on... My question is, what is the name and what kind of bonus is it of the unit with the highest procent of boost ever released in the game...?

Well this is certainly confusing, I know I was never in SF yet I am positive REG placed third in one of the very early WDs. I did not find that unit in my inventory however.

I also see a Capt Steelman in a 2013 REG/CAI gropeme chat group I was in.

Also recall that Brazil was recycled but that must have been much later on so if that unit dropped on the second though that doesn't seem to fit.

Did gree really start WD? That also doesn't sound right either, doesn't really matter I suppose mainly just curious but it does bring back a lot of good memories of some great players when the game was in it's prime and was fun.

Hell, maybe there were a couple of times that the question of a player group was brought up, as I was asked to join that, but well over a year ago. I turned that down as I felt many would feel I was biased. I do not remeber if super faction was third in first wd, but they were for sure third most of the early Wds before they became sup. Sorry dew, but as usual, much of what you have said just is not true. Super faction did not exist until Wds came out, and it's predecssor Royal Navy, who we warred with and she was a memebers of, was never a serious threat, they just never had the firepower to do so. Also super girl gave up leadership due to time avaible to run things, not because anyone took it from her. The next leader dissapeared, no one ever heard from him again, then the leadership was shared by several just before they joined up with the sup relationship. Steelman, sg is defintly still around, and you will find her at or near the top of most fl leaderboards.

Yeah, they definitely were. I started playing late October or early November of 2012, and reading the forum soon after. The forums were the same then as now. Some time in December is when factions were announced, and maybe even started forming before New Years. Then WD started soon after. When I started playing, GREES name was on things, though I don't think they were fully running the show then.

Hi, do you have a WD listing showing REG as a third place finisher?

Ok the forum wipe might have been back further than that as I was on the forums since Nov 2011 and I know that a particular line of questioning I was pursuing was suddenly wiped along with the entire forum.
