I believe it's been made more or less clear that there haven't been sufficient staff resources to apply any reasonably labour-intensive to implement changes to the game. What we need is resources to put code in, and work out "new" (or old, see below) things into the game. What we don't need is more bureaucracy - multihunters, support idlers.

Anything that slows the game down and causes less emphasis to be put on a single tick of events and increases the tactical depth of the combat system is a welcome change.

It's a self-fulfilling cycle. Numbers dwindling causes the metagame suck, because it cuts down on the number of alliances of any pedigree, and thus reduces the amount of things actually going on in the meta. Which again causes the game to become duller and the numbers to dwindle. It's been a slide. The way I see it 13 could have been the last truly interesting a round. It feels like yesterday, however, we're now at whatnot 38.

Yeah. The funny thing is, at a certain point, it would've been quite much less relevant, since, people would be awake or phoned up to fleet out anyways at the night. It slowly slid towards late morning hours due to "fleets already being out then so it's good time to launch" -attitude, but probably backtracked due to the alliances eroding.

I understand the game sucks, in 10 paragraphs, but what do you think that could be made to improve things for you?
