Well, it sort of is a comparison. =p


But here's the question: Why does Warlords: Heroes have a lower rating than Achilles? Warlords as 4 stories, more weapons, more upgrades, more modes, more enemies, more bosses, better gameplay, better everything. So why does Achilles have a 8.9, and Warlords 8.6? Well, the answer is simple: Spammers

Achilles was published on AG at a time where there weren't as many spammers. People actually rated the games based on how good they were, and not for AP. Well, now, people rate games JUST for AP. And Warlords is living proof. People clicked on the new game on the front page, thinking "Ooo! 2 more AP for me!" and rated the game a 1. Or a 2. Any thing there mouse reached first. 75% of the people probably didn't play the game before rating it.

What I'm basically saying here is: AG is getting spammier by the minute.

Well, it always happens. I prefer Warlords and Shadez Black to Age of War, but they are still lower rated. Know why?

mmmn... Warlords so far is my favorite game... yes, spammers are the problem...

well, if a game is rated 7/10 for instance because of spammers, rate it 10/10 to even the gap.

Achilles did suck...

No Pazx, that is not the solution... Everyone should express their own opinion, not base it on what the game is already rated.

But I really wish there was some way of preventing people from rating till they've played the games...

There is, newgrounds has it.
But they have popups, and the game has to load first...

But there is no way to actually know if they played it. They could have just opened it, let it load, and then rated it.

P.S. Firetail, you wanna chat?

well thats the problem, there is no way to see if they really played it. If it had to be open for say...5 minutes they would open multiple games, then rate them.


Comments of course. You can decline if you want.

Yeah...so you have any ideas about it?

Also, I only open my comments to delete the spam that I've been getting....because I'm quitting. How about the chat?

Well, that really screws people around not many people would be bothered to do that.
