View Full Version : Gathering units from your win total
Logic

This may have been brought up before, but i have an idea. My idea is that whenever a player earns 100 wins, they gain 1 random unit (just like a random unit drop). This way, a player who is dedicated to the game and plays enough, can slowly build their army without relying on the factor or chance or timing in itself. This is a strategical way for players to build settups that fit their preferences, this would not be too hard to add into the game, and for people who have strict time schedules, they have an alternative way of gaining more units.
What do you all think?

While I think we do need more ways of getting units, I'm not sure that this is the answer. It's quite easily exploited: create a dummy account and keep surrendering to yourself.
Plus, I'd rather see them simply increase the frequency of unit drops. It'd be very simple to do, and, in the one unit drop game I've played, I've found it to dramatically increase the pressure on the game, and thus my enjoyment of it.

The only real concern I would have about doing such a thing would be the fact that it wouldn't be too hard for 2 friends to go in and constantly surrender to the point where the other person would have a huge number of extra units. They could currently do this anyway to get a high ranking, but considering that there would be much more incentive to do this if units were given out after a certain number of wins, then this seems quite the implausable idea.

Curse you Ri'Orius, for your faster response speed! May the 7 plagues come upon thee next time I try to respond before you. Or perhaps the Dark Lord needs more speed typing courses?

That is a good point; maybe if the player were to get one unit per 100 wins that would discourage someone from doing this? Afterall, that is only 3 units for every 300 wins, and you don't nessacarily get an immediate advantage over people by getting extra units, but you get more options when creating your settup.
I think that anyone who would exploit this is both a total idiot and would be waisting their own time. The reason i think this is because if a person were to try this at the moment, then they would already have a much larger chance to win a random drop during the day.
I personally would love to have a goal such as 100 wins so i could look forward to getting a new unit without having to worry about losing to a battle where there is a unit drop, and I would also be more motivated to play the game more often and feel good when i reach 100 wins each time.
What do you all think of that?

Well, you also have to figure about how only a couple people reached 100 as greys at all. Though all golds will eventually reach 100 if they keep trying, that seems kind of harsh. I'm a little against the whole thing, but if a way was found for it to work, I'm for it.

Maybe a maximum of like two - three units gained this way on the account?

I think this is a grand idea.
It would probably also help the makers of this game gain more money. since gold stats don't get deleted they would have more units. this could motivate more people to go gold.
