I have not seen much voting lately, though this is a good sample

If you ask me, option #1 is just for people that are too lazy to plan a strategy, option #2 is realistic, I prefer option #2

Besides, nukes travel a lot slower than fleets, so it's really really hard to make it so the situation that sparked all this happen again

Hmm, the voting is too close for a definitive winner. I've noted the results in the first post of the thread. I'll take this back to the staff and knowing now more of the opinions and feedback from the players we'll present some new tweaked options for the community to vote on and we'll have a new poll created. Nukes/missiles/dragons are a very important tactical feature and we want to make sure that they are designed in a way that maximizes tactical use while still maintaining counters to keep them balanced.

Thanks everyone for their votes and opinions! I'll open a new thread once we have some better options so we can hopefully finalize any changes to this system right away.

-Andrew

Half the people voting for option 2 are voting without context or understanding, go back and read, it is easy to tell.

WAW still has not been given compensation for what is clearly a bug, and that's pretty despicable.

Many of the people voting for option 1 are only doing it because of the situation of not being able to ion a nuke that will affect them, but prefer the option 2 method of missiles otherwise.

So how about we just call it that both sides have people who are split between the 2 options instead?

Sorry for double post, but to add to this quote:

Missiles have a minimum travel time of 6 ticks and a max of 12 ticks. They are actually faster than squads with the exception of the minimum 6 tick travel time and they can attack a target 4800km away in 12 ticks, squads take 24 ticks to attack that same distance.

-Andrew


This is part of the reason I get into arguments about these sorts of things Andrew... because you are showing your disconnect from the game, so your opinions on how the game should or shouldn't be played becomes very hard to appreciate.

Missiles have a minimum distance of 6, yes... but their max distance has been 24 ticks for 2 years now. The old client model was never fully recreated in the new client. How can you, with that said, lecture us on what is or isn't a bug regarding how nukes work?

You were happy to ban me without a second thought when a bug was in play, but now that it's against us we can't get simple workers to cover the damage.
