Let's write ideas about improving the Colony's gameplay here.

Moderators, please, make this topic important.

When you are posting your idea, please write name and short summary of it.

When you are commeting someone's idea, please write name of that idea and why do you like it or dislike it.


My personal ideas:

[For of war]
You with your friend can only see a part of field. Your units open area around them.

[Hosting more options]
Please, let hosters give more options on sever such as: No missiles, no hospitals, etc.


[Select all XXX-class units]
With small button you can choose class of units and all units of this class on battefield will be selected.

[Friends and IM]
Add abilty to have friendlist and add friend and have private talks with friends.

P.S. Big thanks to Krin for the game

[hosting more options] i dont like that idea. The game is very balanced as it is now. It will not be a strategy game.

[firends and IM]
This is a good idea, i also like to have a friendlist.

[for of war]
could be a good idea, it will make it harder and then you can use more strategies

[select all xxx-class units]
dont like the idea, i thing it good as it is now.

[game leaving]
Amazing idea, this is the best idea. I lost many battles because my team mate left

[hosting more options 2]

Maybe you are right about missiles and etc. But the "same rank" is quite useful option. When newbie gets killed several times by pro he may forget about this game

[for of war]
It's especially to make game harder.

[select all xxx-class units]
This doesn't changes gameplay. And in some moments you need it very much. Especially when medics go faster then your tanks

[More Gaming Rules]
New rule: you aren't allowed to forbid Air units or Missiles on server(etc.). Also you aren't allowed to abuse players for that.

[Toggle Hot Keys Switch]
There's a bunch of times when I'm typing that I accidentally press the hotkey button (shift) to stop auto produce or rally point or team chat.

[Sharing Resource Toggle Switch]
You can choose when you want to share resources and when you don't. For example when I get a level 3 Forge I mass gladiators. I always have a surplus of money and energy because of there slow build speed. Although at the beginning I always need lots of resources.

[For of War]? Do you mean fog of war?
That might be ok if the battle field wasn't so small.

[Hosting more options]
Only option I want is a kick feature.

[Friends and IM]
I think we all want that.

[Unit Counter]
I wish when you select your units it would tell me how many I had of each type. That would be extremely useful for when you got a whole pile of units clumped up together.

WARNING, I HAVE MEGA IDEA
[XP points and upgrade system]
IDEA:
Remove goverment choice, at 1 rank everyone have same starting resources increase per 5 secs
For each new rank you get some XP to improve different abilities such as different resource income per time, build speed, build cost and etc.
Also you remove and add XP to different abilities.

WHY XP AND UPGRADES?:
Every player will be able to make most effective strategy for himself
Anyway this game rules and every battle you have to make new strategy to surrive, but it may get booring to play more and more... So upgrade system will make game MUCH MORE ADDICTING and it make stimul to play more and develop strategy.

P.S. Also needed:
[Hosting more options 2]
Add option "Same rank with you"

P.S.S.
This gonna be best multiplayer flash game, if u make this upgrade :3

Wouldn't that cause rank 5s to have a huge advantage over rank 1s?

More servers please Krin.


Agreeable.

[Round system]
After one round game doesn't stop, it continues after small pause with AD only, no chat

[Pre-game AD]
Before first round there is loading pause with AD. ( Krin deserves that )
