ZI
That is my counter argument. ZI. ZI may not be the worst thing that can happen to you, but it will always be in style, nuff said.
-
It's a repeat in that we had this thread the last time there was a GRL, and we all decided it didn't really matter because it hurt almost everyone equally.
fixed and I'd like to say that I hardly consider that to be a repeat, tho that's just my opinion, and it's the mods opinion that counts so let's wait and see what he says.. Anyways, I'm not really up to arguing this. It's annoying and has no effect. I don't like it, that is all there is to say.
Might I also add that the last topic was in the last forum, and can no longer be discussed in anyways
-
Ok, ZE isn't so bad, but you simply can't kill mems just because things change. If it were to become impossible to do Zero Infrastructure we would still call it ZI.
-
Actually this is not a repeat. The other one is on tech raids, this is about GR, they have nothing to do with eachother, other than the fact that they were reintroduced during the same update.
-
ZI is the relevant term anyways. If my enemy has 200 tech, and zero infrastructure, I really don't think it matters. Tho I suppose if your really hated someone you could put them on the ZIT list, as a step up from the ZI list. I can definately see that coming, but it's certainly not cost effective when you can achieve the same results with perma-ZI.
-
but the changes are atrocious. It's stupid, plus, the global radiation was boo'd the first time, why should people like it any more now?
-
It's all a matter of opinion. I have a relatively larger amount of tech than most nations my NS size. So really, it's like saying, I'm shorter because the lower half of my body is measured in inches, but the upper half of my body is measured in cm still, but most of my height was in my legs, so I appear shorter on paper, but larger when you get closeup
-
I think land raiding is for real... but I'm disgusted with this change. My nation went from 7k to 4k NS. And I lost a ridiculous amount of money, that was invested in Tech. The thing is, tech is far too expensive to buy for just 5... on the other hand, this means I'm much stronger for my NS level. However, I think if the amount tech is worth is going to drop that much, the price should drop too, and I don't see that it happened. I could be wrong, because I don't buy tech, but I don't think the cost of tech dropped. I won't buy tech for that price if it does that.. I wonder how fast I could put someone in anarchy now tho, since tech has the same effect as it used to, just limits my NS range less.
-
wow, worst update ever.. Admin brings back that Global Radiation, and makes wars way more expensive in one fell swoop.. IMO worst update ever. GPA has got to like this, accept for the radiation bit.
-
They seem like the kind of guys who are willing to work hard tho. I'm not gonna lie, I'm scared, tho if they out recruit the NP/pO... Not that I want to see the NPO lose, more I'd like to see someone rival the orders; who doesn't have to resort to neutrality. Onward and upward TOOL, I've never seen anything quite so impressive.
-
It's just so ridiculously stupid. I think it's about time that a treaty was signed in which no one posts in these threads. I think this will get the point across more strongly than that of postings of: you=nub They can only argue if there is someone to argue with. People come on the forums thinking they are incredibly cool, and ask for help, then get ignored. I like that.
-
I have a sneaking suspicion that all the tough guy tech-raiders won't exactly be chomping at the bit to fight when the full weight of Pacifican artillery is aimed squarely at them.
Just a hunch.
There are simply too many ignorant raiders out there. Most raiders have no comprehension of CN politics (I said most not all) NPO will have alot of raiders on their hands, and it will be very time consuming, but will in no way over extend their troops. My personal belief anyways. However, it's possible that someone in a position of power could tech raid a red nation, resulting in the destruction of the alliance he belongs to. It's not likely to occur at this moment, but no doubt it will occur, eventually.. I don't see why anyone would think this should stop NPO from doing what they're doing.

FUK are nothing more than nuclear rogues. USN did not declare on them, and they flipped out over some insult, and they declared war on an alliance much larger then them. If one nation declares war because he is angry and immediately fires nukes, then there is very little difference between 1 nations and 8 nations. Just because they use an alliance affiliation does not mean that they are any better than rogues in their actions, and their childish reactions. Anyone here can see that if you support an 8 people firing nukes over an insult, then you support 1 person firing nukes over an insult. Anyone who says differently needs to read the entire post or learn reading comprehension.
Edit: spelling

It's tech raiders like this that make their names sooo much worse Seriously, who nukes on a tech raid, nukes are far too expensive to use on a tech raid. Hell, CM's are too expensive to use on tech raids. If your nuclear capable, what are you tech raiding for anyways? I just don't see the point in wasting so much money. It would probably be less expensive to pay reps.. Tech raiding is all about the profit.. by nuking him, he's lost tons of profit, and he's made himself look bad. Not to mention; what reasoning is there behind being so destructive?
-
The doctrine says that the entire sphere is protected. If this is not the case, then it should be fixed. That, I believe, is the confusing part.
Edit: I'll just take my foot out of my mouth now. I was mistaken and please ignore the above message.

Elves. What other kinds of "for the lulz" alliances will CyberNations spawn?
Either way, best of luck. Expect an order for many elvish bows soon.
You'll be talking about our elvish technology I presume? State of the art homing bows. Unfortunately, we can't figure out how to get the arrows to home yet, only the bows..
PS:
I can promise you, we are not: for teh lulz, we just happen to have a sense of humour aswell. TeLF's in it for real, once we stop being too lazy to recruit that is.
>_>

To come out on top in a war when I'm ganged up on by 6 nations. If I can accomplish that, I will be happy, regardless of circumstances.

The recent change in the stance on tech raiding astounds me. I can almost see another attempt at CNARF soon. The thing is, an alliance in principle is a bunch of people who defend each other, therefore, the unaligned wish to not be defended. If they don't want to be defended, then stop defending them. Unaligned are just stubborn, and truly, the tech raiders help to force nations into becoming aligned. While I disagree that any alliance should be made for the sole reason of tech raiding, I think it's a part of the game that must be observed with respect, because if we didn't have tech raiding, what reason would there be for alliances. Why would you join an alliance without a reason? If there is no need to have allies, then the only reason to join an alliance is because you wish to be ruled. An alliance should be for defence, and not so someone can control you. If there is no need for defence, then why have alliances at all. Tech raids contribute to alliances, and thus contribute to CN politics. Besides, this is a game of competition. Everyone seeks to better themselves, if you aid your competition by protecting them, how are you bettering yourself. This is a game people, and just like in any game, we all want to win. You can't win by defending those who will not return the favour. Although honourable in RL, there is no need for it within a game.
TL;DR
No more CNARF please. No tech raiding alliance please. Stop shedding tears for people who do not want your tears please.

Oh comon, GOONS is obviously the most evil, IC wise. Unless you RP /b/ taking down the server was actually a dooms day device. NPO are just playing the game, staying on top, as all would. GOONS took delight in causing pain IC pain, they seem to have something against high growing NS

I wonder if you're a Zoophile
lol, I'm waiting for this guy to have his war slots filled with blood, if you know what I mean. OOC attack much?
O wait, he doesn't exist...
Anyways, it seems to me that bilrow has been greatly wounded by this OOC attack. It's quite understandable that he would react this way. He's not declaring out right war yet, and there is no proof that he will do it in the future. All GPA needs to do is design clear cut rules on their IRC for all OPS to follow, inorder to ensure that there are no hard feelings. I think naturally, most of us want to "poke GPA with a stick and see what they will do" This temptation is clearly just fuel to the fire. GPA needs to do everthing within their power to not add to this temptation. It's easy to submit to temptation when you have a decent excuse.
-
GPA are far to confident in their neutrality if they are doing that. Their members have become detached from the rest of CN, and they think they can get away with anything because of their side. They forget, they have no allies. It will be cool to see this fight, teach GPA a lesson, they aren't invincible. Their response was far too supported by all the members of GPA on #gpa to just be a coincidence. The rest of the governent better talk fast.
-
there is a difference in GPA allowing these OOC attacks, rather than if they were incharacter. It's the same as allowing flaming within your alliance. You don't do it. However, I can't see that this ultimatum is fair. This guy certainly doesn't need to be banned, tho perhaps he needs to be reprimanded in some other way. This could have been sorted out in a much less hostile way.
-
would be interesting to see how GPA holds out in a war tho... I have no opinion on this matter, I simply don't know enough about it, but wow, largest and strongest alliance in the game, it would be interesting

I agree, it's quite possible to simply tell a fellow member of your alliance exactly what to do, but every war is fought under different circumstances, simply giving a generalized guide is not enough. If you want your members to be skilled in warfare you will either have to give case by case instructions to every single nation (impossible in even the smallest alliances) or give opportunities at war. Guides are helpful, but they aren't the same. There are three main components in CN, Nation Growth, War and Diplomacy. You can almost teach nation growth, and experience will be gained under any circumstances, but nations still need to learn the other two components. Fighting a war does this, it is inevitable that if you fight a war, you will come into contact with diplomacy at some point. Whether it just be understanding that if a tech raid is executed by oneself, one can be tech raided aswell, or actual diplomatic exchange with other nations to whom the war concerns. Tech Raids give valuable experience, and are profitable aswell. You can use other methods to get said experience (see NPO) but everyone needs a way to get it.
