Modern War FAQs

I've bumped the "Nano Strategy?" thread by Gixxxah_Ridah.

You can direct people to old threads, they just shouldn't post in them. If you want to create a new thread about an old thread and link to it, that's fine.

I've stuck this thread, good work.

Why did you remove my sticky? That was still in the process of being completed. People still have to post in that because I need to know the digits for the missing fields so I can fill them in.

Thanks CCM – How old would you consider a thread for it to be necro’d? See stats below. I can update the intro paragraph to provide some instruction on FAQs and thread creation, i.e.

For any of these threads older than x days, you must create a new thread to continue the discussion (recommend naming it the same + Part 2, Part 3, etc.). Reference the original thread by posting a link in the first post.

Thanks everyone for your contributions to making this a comprehensive FAQ. Special thanks to Bronson, JP lfs, overkill 280, and War Priest for systematically helping me go through all of the old threads to see if there were any good nuggets out there. We uncovered a few and they’ve been included.

Thought you may want to see some interesting stats on what we reviewed. Note the average # threads created per day. Note: this was a non-exhaustive review on the title only, if it seemed to be a match, then we'd each review the content. There may still be some nuggets we missed.

Interesting findings in my thread range from the "early days:"

Common Questions still arise:

• How do I get free gold?
• What are the best jobs for using energy?
• What are people’s thoughts on leveling?
• Anyone else come across cheating/hacking?
• How should I allocate my skill points?
• How do rival lists work?
• How do I calculate A/D and how does it work?
• Should I build defense buildings and do the work?
• Why isn’t there a water defense?
• How does nation’s bonus work?

Common Complaints still expressed:

• Extensive upgrading/expansion times (too long)
• Inflexible alliance lists (sorting, search)
• Unpredictable casualty rates
• Can’t see attacker’s profile from news feed (only has Attack button, no Invade button)
• Gold players versus free players
• Sore feelings about getting attacked repeatedly (advice is consistent – grow economy, buy more units, use boosts, pick a unit boost nation, try again)
• Not enough participation from forum moderators (questions remain unanswered) – first starts in January
• No announcements from Funzio when game gets retooled

Interesting game feature recommendation:

Issue: Money buildings stop generating cash until the fund is collected.
Suggested solution:

• “Robotic Cash Collector” gold unit to that sweeps money buildings for cash while player is offline.
• “Collect All” button so a player doesn’t have to click on each building when collecting cash.

Still no answer... Hmm

[LeBarticus]

Beautiful. You guys should be rewarded for your amazing effort put forth in the forums. Thanks!

HK, how about this thread?

http://www.funzio.com/forum/showthre...-Program/page5


The first 4 pages dont have any valuable info but from Page 5 onwards, it contained IMO, the most important and valuable info of the games. (feedback from CCM) crucial info

[Aidan]

give the post #, some of us have 40 posts per page

Opss, sorry, didnt think about that. Well, basically all posts from CCM.

[Jp lfs]

His input was... interesting. It flies in the face of a ton of in-game experience for a lot of us, though, so I agree with your post Aidan. You said something like- That may have been what you intended, but that's not the way it works in the game. I believe JohnnyR agreed... so do I.

Manbeast (I think) shared some info about skill points that was radically different than any other info we had ever seen. I'll try to find that thread ASAP because it is a bigger game-changer than any other strategy tips we have normally shared.

The gist of it was that skill pts on A/D act as a percentile number of your A/D score, as opposed to being added directly to the total or acting as an "x-factor" to whether you win or lose.

Essentially, if the info is correct, and it was directly from CJ, then we should be able to accurately figure our real numbers on A/D, and predict a win/loss more precisely, especially if we know an opponents skill pts.

** I'll edit this post for accuracy when I find the original post. **

I updated the FAQs to include Aidan's recommendation. Did anyone find anything interesting in my post #36 above/below (I sort in descending order - always messes me up when y'all write above...up is down )

I have a question. I am on level 8 on modern war and I got a popup that said "Get 10 free units for your first purchase of gold." And since there is a sale, I figured, why not spend 3.99 and buy 50 gold and get the free units and get a single crate while at it. But do you know what the units are? Thanks!

I answered your PM about this. It's just like APC's and Flamethrowers.

[Mackdaddy]

APCs and Flamethrowers! Well I guess that's a good prize if your at a lower level.
