Make officer promotion mean something!!!! (and other complaints)
This thread has gotten very long, so I apologize if I missed something that was already addressed.
What power does an Officer REALLY have? Correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I've seen, an officer CANNOT select a Defense Leader. Junior members CAN declare war and CAN accept new recruits from the faction request list. I've promoted Officers in an effort to maintain order in my faction as it has grown. But there seems to be no logical separation of power.
Let's make Officer rank ACTUALLY MEAN SOMETHING!!!! What I'd like to see is this:
Only OFFICERS AND LEADER can declare war.
Only OFFICERS AND LEADER can accept a new member request.
Only the LEADER can kick members. My Officers can make decisions together, but let's keep the power at the top.
Give Officers the ability to select the Defense Leader.
Other issues:
I can only see my health when a battle is in progress. We have to estimate our health and we sometimes go into battle half-cocked.
We can't see the remaining strength of our own fortifications!
Continue to expend one fortification per battle, but give factions a battle points bonus for fortifications that are not completely destroyed in battle. It could be based on remaining fortification strength at the end of the battle. Otherwise, there is no point in wasting cash and concrete on high-level fortifications!
Well, that's my 3 cents... General Anesthesia
Change needed - Two changes would be really nice
1/ Teams from 100 spot to 1,000th spot should have a prize every 100 spots...ie one for 100th spot, 200th spot, 300th spot and so on until 1,000th spot...this would drive the competition more, because as it stands now there are hundreds of teams who just stop trying when the know they will make the 1,000 level, but no hope at all of getting to level 500 etc...A ton more gold would be used in the final day and hours, if you knew that you could get a better prize if we had a realistic shot at say level 800....true story...I've lived thru it.
2/ Minimum Time between wars should be AT LEAST One FULL Month or MORE...this 17 days BS is eventually going to give us all 'Battle Fatigue' ...you've heard of that right??!! I realize the shorten days in between wars is driven purely by GREE-D, but come on...everyone on many factions are saying this...don't F up a good thing (which many companies do ...I hope you guys actually take advice from the people who are giving you real MONEY).
3/ THANK-YOU for shortening the wars to 3 days!...that was awesome...now get back to work on points 1 and 2!!
