A word about war levels

There should be a realistic simulation world, then.

IT NOT A GAME IT'S A SIMULATION AND YES IM ANGRY AND IRRITATED SIMULATE TO STIMULATE!!!!!! IM TIRED OF NANCY PAMBIES TALKING CRAP AND HIDING BEHIND WAR LEVELS IM TIRED OF "PEACEFUL ECON PLAYERS" HIDING BEHIND WAR PROTECTION AND USING THEIR CEOS TO BID ON MY PUBLIC CORPS SO THEY CAN CLOSE THEM AHHHHH CAPS LOCK!!!

in order for excitement to occure, it requires a Friction,

discussions about 0% tax countries, and complaigning about rules only goes so far. people have to be allowed to disagree in-game, with a certain amount of risk.

WLs do more to isolate, than create an even playing field

i'm of the opinion, that if a person would rather pack up, than set up defenses, then shoot, let them play a peaceful game. but for those that want to compete, they should expect an ever increasing level of danger. and be prepared for such

perhaps change the level to wage war against each other to 2 instead of three, as it takes too long for some members to reach three.

Why, are you one of them?

which brings up the other thing i have to say, thanks PR.

peoples lives change, some of us have been playing SC a long time. and wont always be able to live up to a high competition level, and their should be a way to go down in levels, do to life changes.

i realize this could be abused, i honestly think that it should be tied to the security council. As players, active players, we should have an idea of whats going on, and avoid those who would abuse the system. i think that this can also offer some real politics via the SC.

if you went up in war levels for attacking other players, the SC just might not let you off the hook, but for those that have been quiet a while, i guess we could figure it out. just an idea.

Pale Rider, you can go to WL3 by conquering 3 Countries if you like to, I would say that's fast enough, isnt it? (and if that takes you too Long you really shouldn't go to WL3 or you would be looking at a really bad suprise ;) )

Josias, nice Idea about going down levels but I would say leave the SC out of it cause there are also many peacefull Players in SC and tbh I think the really experienced Players will not be in the SC as you get more GCs per Time if you dont become first placed, which causes many experienced Players to avoid first place.
Instead I'd suggest to make it possible for Players to go into 'Peacefull-Mode' if one doesnt start a war for, lets say, 3 RL months and in this peacefull mode one cant attack or be attacked but the one has to remain in that peacefull mode for a Minimum of time, lets say again 3 RL months, before you can swith back so it wont be able to just Switch back and forth as you wa

I think the system's good now, just remove the war level requirements and you can have secured mode at any war level, and if you fight in PvP, you can go up against anyone not secured.

nice avatar Arthur. where'd you get it if you don't mind my asking.

that war mode / peacefull mode was once an option but too many hid behind it or you can say it was abused. bringing that back or changeing war levels below 3 would only create another problem. here's a wierd question. wonder how many would like to see war protection bumped up to say 5 or higher? maybe permanent protection even. problem here is many of those players don't even visit the forum.

Lmao @BorgQueen

i highly respect BorgQueen myself. a vet of many years on the game. always polite and to the point. we could use more with this quality.

Some people would rather have the option to advance war levels without having to conquer countries they don't want to fight as they see it as a waste of time which it really is. Say a veteran who left the game for some reason was War level 5 or higher prior to leaving and then when they come back they want to jump right back into the war game.... Do any of you honestly think they would want to do all the things they already did to get to War Level 5 once all over again? I sure as hell wouldn't.

But those vets can do exactly that quite easily. I'm playing peacefull and the last 3 C3s (WL2) I took was a matter of about 10 minutes alltogether, not even one game day passed in that time, so I'd say for vets it shouldn't be a Problem to raise their War-Lvls quite fast. And besides that I would say it wouldnt be possible to just jump to WL5 and above because you just Need the time to get the weapons and ammunition you Need to live up to that WL so while you wait for that you can do a Little 'below-WL5 waring' ;)

Not to mention that there would also be the Problem that there would be some Newbies that see waring at low lvls is easy and say 'hey, higher WL give more Money, so I go straight there' and be beaten around by those high-lvl C3s

I'm war level 5, headed to war level 6 soon, and it's not even bad and I wouldn't consider myself a vet.

Sure it's not bad Nico, but would you like to start at WL5 with no weapons, ammunition and only Standard Quality Units?

If your war level 5, you should be smart enough to buy weapon and ammo upgrades...that or buy weapons with high quality.

I'm war level 7, totally worth it. I just wish spending space would increase so I could actually UTILIZE my money. Instead it takes months of in between time to even get enough precision bombers due to the insane limits!

Sure there's spending increase boosters, but they hardly have any effect at all. It costs <1.00T to wage and you only get around 200.00B without buying massive boosters that don't even give you the proper amount of money it clams to give you. it says I have 300.00B left, but only lets me spend 100.00B of it and there's no new orders for weapons and the year to date spending only went up 100.00B, with only a 100.00B increase in military assets.

I think that spending space should be bigger with more cash.

@Nico: sure, but what Pale/Arthur mentioned would mean that you can go straight to WL5 or more, so that means you start your Country and jump to WL5, so that means you dont have the weapons yet and have to start buying and upgrading them while you are allready at WL5

That would kill your economy to go to that level. But if you got to WL5, you should have no problem at all getting back up there. I must have misinterpreted, sorry.

the first two WL's are like War tutorials. A lot of games I used to play you could skip the game for resources you would have earned through the tutorial, and then you were in protection (Secured mode) which you could leave early for a lot of resources. Maybe add a function where you can skip ahead war level and receive the weapons and ammo required for troops and some money to spend for units and more weapons and ammo.

And I know Star. It's annoying.

The more you complain the longer it will be for you to reach WL3. GM isn't going to change anything. We fought it since it started, they won't change it. WL3 isn't even hard. I have deced over 30 C3s on WL3 (after 12/13 it started getting harder). So just go to WL3 and quit crying.

lol Borg queen and nico are correct..... I think everyone agrees we should give noobs 1 month of secured mode for all their nations and then we should be able to kill them.... if the noobs want to live they must join federations

pls@the why, be very quiet before aLL THE eyes turn their attention to you, And make your statement a reality!
