Game Needs More Good kds Competing

[fenrost]

horse prolly beaten to death -

hard to find players as it is, whats left in this game are old players with less and less passion for this game. we need fresh younger audience who has the time and commitment to reignite what it used to be.

the milieu has changed and users has shifted from desktop to mobile, 56k modem to broadbands, especially ease/immediate user experience. this game [ i mean the gaming experience itself ] has yet to adapt that environment.

its a change or die situation.

sug: ban most of the current playerbase for life.

Most of the "good" kingdoms today are garbage, except in their own minds and in the eyes of impressionable nubs.

Unimpressionable nooblet. Tsk tsk.

If the game weren't in such a degenerated state, those kingdoms would be mid-tier caliber at best, and they only coast along because more kingdoms are lacking the activity/enthusiasm to field 25 players and make a run for the charts. The vile behavior of those ghetto-topkds is the primary contributor to the unwillingness of most of the game to play competetively.

Does everyone arbitrarily hate large swaths of Utopia? I'm not even sure who you're talking about.

I guess I hate the "good mid-tier ghetto-topkds" and their "vile behavior" too.

Meanwhile the few actual good kingdoms/leaders at the top naturally crush all competition.

It seems to me like "the few actual good KDs/Leaders at the top" gangbang any newcomers who would compete with them and steal their best players before they can put up a fight.

Edit: ^^ Maybe we're talking about the same "ghetto-topkds", I dunno.

Wouldn't know, I don't get too involved with top politics, but most of the people in them act like the biggest pieces of **** imaginable.
The "few actual good kingdoms" I refer to usually establish a lead early, and as such they aren't in a position to gangbang "newcomers". The positions immediately below those few actual good kingdoms are usually the same kingdoms age after age, who can't beat absalom because they play like ****, and make life miserable for everyone else that rises to their rank.
Far be it from me to know how to play in a good kingdom much less run one, but what I've seen of those kingdoms doesn't suggest that they have any special talent besides being obnoxious to everyone that dares get in their way. Most of their provinces look like **** when I arse myself to take intel, and I don't feel any fear from randoming into those overgrown farms.

Yep, make an app for Tablets and Superphones, watch usage go way up (then watch them try to make us pay).

[RivaIronGrip]

My KD is already paying for certain items and I think its fair enough to do so, I would pay a little bit more if it meant I could navigate screens and calc attacks more easily from my phone. The game could be more competitive if integrated IRC was built into the KD chat vs. reverbim. I like how ****** does it in this regard.

You have to understand everybody, nooblet is a truly fragile person. When people are mean to him in-game and over the Internet it really does bother him. He is the ultimate byproduct of contemporary society. Everyone must be respectful, kind, tolerant and forgiving of one another. It isn't within our rights to be harsh towards or place judgment upon others.

Sanctuary, Rage, and Pulse are probably the best kingdoms left in Utopia. And I'm sure Sanctuary of age 56 wouldn't hold up against Sanctuary of age 36, or even 46. But thats how things go when you have an ever shrinking player base in a dying on-line game, the largest player demographic of which is completely clueless as to how things work. They and some others compete and dominate 'newcomers' because thats how things go in a game. You play to win, and you do not spare the competition.

As for everyone in top kingdoms being assholes - This is really no different then how things were 5 or 10 years ago. Infact there were far more assholes back then.

[Avenger]

We need more assholes.

[Anri]

we need more people to kill absalom

[gergnub]

we need more people to kill absalom

yes, absalom is the problem in the game. without absalom all would be good and simians could maybe crown. damn you absalom!!
