Downlord's Issue List

[Downlord]

Since it's pretty time consuming aggregating all known issues and plans etc. here's my personal issue list for galactic wars. You may or may not find it useful. I don't expect any discussion, it's just feedback.

• Let's say I'm Aeon and a Planet is under Aeon attack. It says: Under Aeon Attack! which triggers a "oh shit, we're being attacked" just by its color. I'd prefer Under Aeon Attack. which feels more like "oh good, someone is already attacking it".
• The galactic war map is pretty small and feels fragile (sry i didn't come up with a better adjective ). There's lots of space left, I'd like to have it bigger.
• We all know UEF is blue, but honestly; blue with ~30% alpha an red background results in violet . I'd like to see a nice blue (same with other colors)
• It'd be nice to see how much time is left if someone is attacking
• If attacking, it shouldn't be possible to disable "Available for playing"
• If a higher ranked player had to pay the rank difference to the lower ranked player, we could get some balancing (if desired)
• The "News Banner" is a nice idea, but I'm not reading it at all since it's too much uninteresting information
• It's a little hard to get used to the rank names. Emblems could help with that.

That's all so far. Over all, I like GW since it brings a new dimension to FAF Thanks for that.

By the way, is there an issue tracker for FAF? If not, I could be helpful to have one so people can search for already reported issues (and see whether they're in progress, rejected, etc.)

You know there is a dedicated forum for Galactic War right?

[Downlord]

You're right. I seemed to me that it's not possible to post there, but on a closer look I found that we have to post in the Private Alpha subforum. Could someone please move this topic there?

The colors and alpha are adjustable in the options menu and the map is not final.
