Issac Dolomus Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 This change makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I feel as though for once I'm quite a few steps ahead of the curve in military tactics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doitzel Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 What's the point of tech if it doesn't help your NS? Why buy it? I realize it has still miltary value, but now tech is very insignificant. I dropped from some 30,000 strength to 22,238.548. And I'm even farther away from getting nukes. This sucks. Admin, you suck. You answered your own question, genius. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralJord Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 SELLING TECH HERE, GET YOUR TECH 250K FOR 50! Get it while it's hot. LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorponok Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 Yeah but don't you wana see High NS's??? A lot of alliances who spent loads on Tech will be paying for it here, with losing NS so losing their chances on becoming sanctioned, the game mechanics tricked too many clever people.

TruHartBrakN Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 Considering I dropped in the rankings too, I'd say it has a major effect smart guy. Wow, your originality is stunning. Nobody cares if you dropped in the rankings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Issac Dolomus Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 Also, anyone bawwing, new rule:I lost 41K NS and think this is a good change. Unless you lost more than that, your right to complain is null and void. We will call it the "Diskord no bawwwing rule"... and since NS changes have been made, there is a good chance you are in my NS range now... don't think I won't use military force to enfore this new rule. > But Diskord, I thought your strength was inflated by ludicrous amounts of land, not tech!

Daedalus27 Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 (edited) Guys, TECH STILL INCREASE STRENGTH. Instead of 20 though, it only increases 5. The values given have been reduced but it still matters to some extent. Tech trading will still exist although the market has taken a dive and perhaps players won't be as eager to engage in the trade. 50 tech still gives 250 strength which is useful. Every nation has been affected by this change. No one was singled out. I don't see why everyone is complaining. If you don't like tech now, sell it, and invest that money in infrastructure. There will still be buyers for tech. Edited November 1, 2007 by Daedalus27 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruHartBrakN Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 tech increasing NS makes sense, in the real world it's called productivity and is what spurred on the boom of the 90's... Another brilliant mind... Tech still increases NS, just not in an exorbitant, over-the-top kind of way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamaBuc Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 What the hell is the point of the GRL? I wasn't here last time they had it, but it seems so pointless. As for the tech update, I like it. Oh sure, TOOL is back below 2 mil NS, but we're infra-rich, so we'll be mostly fine. And everyone else gets affected too. Hopefully this will make everyone realize that infra is the real NS. -Bama Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nymraud Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 (edited) Tech is still incredibly expensive, now it's not even worth buying. Sure, infra was the real NS, but tech made up for it by being incredibly expensive. Now there's no balance between tech and infra. Making something like nukes more unattainable is not attractive to newcomers and to people who've been playing the game for quite some time. It's the only thing that's kept me playing the game, and that's probably the same for other people. I've always looked forward to being able to buy nukes, now my strategy for getting them is ruined because admin changed a big part of the game so quickly. All the money I invested in tech for so long was a waste because admin decided to change the rules. There's no compensation either, can't sell tech.

fant0m Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 So just put me straight here, tech still affects your efficiency in wars?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorponok Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 LoL, i love this discussion especially the making fun of n00bs like me !

BartSimpson Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 Global radiation level makes nuclear warfare less attractive. Unless you're an asshat or a rogue (same thing, really), in which case knowning that you can damage EVERYONE with your pointless vandalism makes pointless vandalism more attractive to the sociopaths who go rogue.

TruHartBrakN Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 don't think I won't use military force to enfore this new rule.> I think that's against a few surrender terms your alliance agreed to, no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point. But I hate people that are just here to ruin the game for everyone else. This new change is changing CN, maybe forever, who knows. It might be the beginning of a start of a momentum of new changes and improvements to the game. To conclude, Hail Admin o/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Taco Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 Or even higher. New nations starting out will have no chance of getting a top spot at this rate. Idk about that. If anything there will be even more flux in the top nations because of war. Many people have been ZI-ed but far fewer have ever had all their tech taken away from them. Since infra is now more important massive wars where alliances lose thousands of infra will have a far greater impact on the balance of power than they used to. New nations can easily get a top spot if they just sit out the carnage of the next great war and watch those 5K infra nations drop down to 2.5K.

Delta1212 Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 Yeah but don't you wana see High NS's??? I'd rather have an accurate NS than a high one. Give a 6k NS nation 1k tech with the old system and they'd be murdered in a war. The same situation, while still bad for the bloated nation, is much, much less of one.

Gardiewonka Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 My Daily Infrastructure Costs (per 1 unit) went down by about $15... what are other nations seeing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebbie Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 I have about 7000 infra but only ~300 tech so I jumped from being in the top 6-7% to being in the top 3% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metal Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 My only big gripe here, and not necessarily for my own nation, but some people have been developing their nation based under a certain set of guidelines. When given those guidelines and statistics they formulated a plan to grow their nation in the way they see fit. For the last X amount of days they have been building following that plan, under those rules. Today a large portion of those guidelines and statistics have been pulled out from under them, and their planning. Like I said , while I don't care that much, it does make me wonder what else could up and be changed, that has such a large affect on long term planning that has been underway for some time.

That's exactly what I've been doing. Looks like all CN will be now is the mundane, collect taxes and buy infra. At least before you could buy tech.
