no offence, but u should play some round based strategy and not real time. maybe chess or something like that....

it is a challenge to do all things at once at the same time. those who can do that best (and do the right things ofc) win the game.
and i think we got the picture, but somehow u dont see it.
sure would be efficient to pause once a min to get all orders done i want to - but this would be no skil, challenge - fun!?

as i said. this is real time and not round based.

So if FA was created with +3 as the default, you all would be clamoring speed 0 would be too slow to consider? Something like that? :lol:

Actualy this is a game with different options of playing. Not just one. From -9 to +9. Or with pause while u give orders..Otherwise why are so many mods there? Why isn't everyone playing only forged alliance original? So why should we condemn these options if they are avaliable? If they weren't meant to be used why bother putting them in?

Anyone should able to choose how he/she wants to play. And if you ask me, i'd rather play 1 nice war for 2h than 5 rush and tumble wars in those 2h.
I will repeat again. I dont wish to take anything away from how it is atm, i would just like to see sth added.

PLEASE read and understand this:
http://www.faforever.com/mediawiki/inde ... kill_works

thank you...

If you want other game speeds ask for another ladder or a 2nd rating. Ah ... don't forget to ask if we can have a seperate rating for Setons, No Air, Survival, Thermo, XtremeWars, Vanilla, Claustrophobia, LABwars and so on.

Pilot or the others will be happy to implement that :)

If you don't understand the trueskill wiki - ask if somebody can explain it to you.
ranking :
~1500 global / ~1100 ladder
~1100 games / ~ 400 games
