First aw strike

Yea on the points.

1. We need a mapmaker obviously.

2. We need a new main competitive map. 1 that is equal to or surpasses eu+ in quality but offers different gameplay. That meta is stale af.

3. For new strategies wed need new units added to the default. The current units have been innovated upon to death. The only competitive strats that been suggested in the past 4 years with any potential is desus marine defence strat and cthulhus strat. And even those concepts are a bit out there. scorched earth and hold the line are both troll and have no competitive potential in the current meta.

The admins had a buildings idea which they never got around to. Fortifications which gave +1 defence to all units in a city. An income building which cost a lot initially but more than paid for itself over time. A reinforcement depot. That idea alone would reinvigorate the current meta.

4. bug fixes galore and server stability.

5. mechanics changes to both the rolls and tb system which the community can agree upon.

Then voila atwar can enter a new golden era better than any that have come before. Sun has already demonstrated his ability to attract players in droves. If we could accomplish this much i believe we could retain players.

Breaking strike is such an immature and weak behavior,tells a lot about your character in real life.Sorry not sorry.

Oh no, no one's breaking the strike, I just suggested you stop behaving like babies, throwing toys out of the pram. Continue all you want *brings the tear gas canisters*

Can you offer a bit of inspiration here?
There was a point at which all enigma members became map makers (sadly it lasted only for a week or so) and we were trying to create a competitive map, however no matter how hard we tried we could only come up with turk-ukraine scenarios and uk-germ scenarios, which are all equally boring since they're just the same playstyle with different expansions.

What other variables do you think I could change apart from the number of starting reinfs, number of ports and how accessible income is?

Laochra you just need a map editor...i think that the generic world map has a lot of fun....try to play south america,middle east,asia,medditerenian etc.
When you fill you have played those maps with all countries all strats and all amount of money then yes you need a different map but i dont think admins will make this one....is up to comunity and there are many scenarios that are balanced so maybe go for one of aetius maps

Such arrogance. a r9 telling a r12 to go try other areas of the world map. What a revolutionary idea.

Theres a reason eu+ remains the competitive standard and no its not because ppl are unwilling to change. We just have no better map.

south america - large landmass, imp and blitz main strats. games tend to be long and little room for creativity.
mid east - imp and gw are primary strats. fun but lack of strat and expansion diversity means it gets old quickly.
east asia - Too few viable picks
meditteranean - imp/blitz fest again due to low income and so much water.

Compare this with eu+ - almost all strats are competitively viable. Games are usually quick. to quote vril.

The diversity of regions enriches the game play on the EU+ map. Make sure you include the following regions:

- High income, High reinforcements, medium/high density (Germany, France, UK, Rus. Central)
- High income, low reinforcements, low/medium density (Norway, Sweden, Finland, Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland)
- Medium income, low/medium reinforcements, low density (Russia... )
- Medium income, High reinforcements, medium density (Spain, Italy, Ukraine)
- Low/medium income, medium reinforcements, medium/high density (Greece, Poland, Serbia, Romania, Belarus, Austria)
- Low income, high reinforcements, high density (Turkey)
- Low income, low/medium reinforcements, high density (aka Balkan countries/ former yugoslavia or capital only countries)
- Low income, low/medium reinforcements, periphereal (Iceland, Portugal, Ireland, Azerbajan...)

Find me 1 other map that achieves this and includes this range of diversity.

It is possible to create another map of this level for 10k that differs from the pd centric gameplay of west eu. You could also develope a map for teamgames on 15k.

As for the scenarios pffft. Big credit to Aetius with WW1. 1 of the few scenarios i have encountered with competitive potential. A lot of thought and effort has been put into it in regards balance and realism. Its impressive. My only gripe is its such a time commitment. If you sit down to play a ww1 then be prepared to go the full 5 hours. Also im not a fan of the kind of mass stacking autism that occurs lategame. But thats personal taste.

Aetius's map is to linear to be competitive, it's the same issue I run into when I try to make a competitive map. It's very hard to balance diversity with balance, while keeping the map entertaining but fair. If you think you can balance a map correctly pm me and maybe we can collaborate, you find the map, and balance it's sections and I'll draw it up. My aesthetics appeal is top notch on aw, my game of thrones is par none. Let me know.

1.Fix server so we can play like humans.
2.Release map editor already.
Admins promised that gonna be done 2 years ago. We can't wait anymore.
3.Demote inactive and useless mods.
4.Implement two new strategies. Even if they suck, we just need something new. We can make a topic with suggestions for new strats.
5.Fix codes. It is so easy to exploit some of bugs.

1. Got extra DDoS protection now, should help against the outages. Though large scale and prolonged DDoS is no joke, whoever is doing it is one dedicated asshole.
2. We've advertised for programmers, interviewing 2 candidates in a few day. Since we continuously fail to find the time to do do it ourselves, perhaps this is the only way.
3. This is an odd one, compared to the seriousness of other problems. Why would it bother you so much? I see inactive mods retaining their status as a way to honour their contributions and allow them to come back if they feel like.
4. OK.
5. See #2
