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

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

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

That's the answer

Or I've got one more idea with rank difference(that doesn't cancel hosting option about same rank):
[Server access by rank]
Several server are made for different ranked players

Bad idea. The game is enough balanced

I don't really like both current and old icon... Maybe we make a competition for a new icon?

Seriously, there should be some sort of penalty for leaving the game...
I've lost 2 battles now because of it...

Men, I already wrote -
[Game leaving]
If your mate leaves game you get control over his base and units

And penalty is bad idea. What if connection loses?

If they clicked "exit the game" they would get some sort of penalty.

Not much point, is there?
You don't have enough resources to operate all 8.

I approve... I suck at making thumbnails ^^ If someone makes an awesome icon then maybe we can update it!

PS: I actually already like your icons over the current one!

The kicking thing isn't good. Just make it so that if you lose your partner the loss doesn't count, but if you win you get 2 points w/o a partner.

Take out the win 2 points thing on my suggestion. I decided it would almost be encouraging quitting...

Friend list is the most important part of the game that need to be made (in my opinion). Also being able to see what they are doing and what game they are playing is good to.
A clan option or the ability to add a clan name to your name.

Influence is not very well balanced. Special units are too expensive. I've never got to 100 influence with capitalist/fascist.

It's kind of useless... I mean the only really good one is the special operations one, but 3 hover tanks can take them all out. You usually get 100 influence after everyone already has tier 3...
