  1. So i have bad new @Mr D, i love my phone, i have mentioned more than once that i use a Pixel 2. Great phone, i'm also a tech-lover, so when Google Io happened a few weeks back i watched most of the conference. When they announced open Beta for Android P (the next version of android, still hoping for Popsicle) i enrolled within a few hours.

    I tell you all this because i have been using the game in the most reason version of Android and i have to tell you... the game sucks in it. Its beyond buggy, it lags, and it crashes... a lot. Im saying "I have seen the future and the future is about... constant reloading your app".  I love the game and am far far to addicted to leave it over minor things like crashes. When i switch from "My Profile" to any other area in the hamburger menu the app likes to crash, also if you track players from the "Scrap Menu" the app will crash. You attempt to update your location from within the app and then open the hamburger menu... can you guess? yeah it crashes.

    Now most of this isn't a major problem, and secondly, a lot of this is the fact that GMaps crashes a bunch in P, but at least part of it is a poorly optimized app. the official release probably wont hit till October, an even then only a few of the people using the latest tech will be using it till the new year. The next dev preview will release to us in Sep or Aug, so i understand that you may not have a Sony, Pixel, OnePlus, or Huwie fone easily available, so i will try to keep you updated on major game breaking bugs as they reveal themselves.

    Is there anything else i can help with on this? i really suck at writing code but im happy to help any other way that helps if possible :D     

  2. you fail to understand, this game has thousands of happy players, you being the one person who cant take the idea of leaving your home is not going to lead to a vastly differently deved game. We dont want the features your talking about. We dont focus on people with no internet in Africa for two reasons. 1) they are not the target audience. this i about getting mellineails and Gen X outside and moving. 2) They dont have money, if they dont have a mobile plan, we dont want them all that much. 

    If discord scares you that much you going to have to live without alliances and communication, the game is not big enough to warrant chats and they would be pretty quiet right now anyway. also this would lead to someone having to moderation of those channels which would also either cost or could lead to corrupt chat staff (it happens, believe me)  

     

    вы не понимаете, в этой игре есть тысячи счастливых игроков, вы являетесь единственным человеком, который не может принять идею покинуть свой дом, не приведет к совершенно другой игре. Нам не нужны функции, о которых вы говорите. Мы не фокусируемся на людях без интернета в Африке по двум причинам. 1) они не являются целевой аудиторией. это я о том, чтобы вытащить искусственные потолки и Gen X снаружи и двигаться. 2) У них нет денег, если у них нет мобильного плана, мы не хотим, чтобы они так много.
    Если раздор пугает вас настолько, что вам придется жить без альянсов и общения, игра не настолько велика, чтобы гарантировать чаты, и в любом случае они будут довольно тихими. также это приведет к тому, что кому-то придется умерять те каналы, которые также будут либо стоить, либо могут привести к повреждению персонала чата (это происходит, поверьте)

  3. What are you not understanding? This game is for GPS game players, it's not so you can sit at home. if you don't like to move around, you're not going to like the game. Srsly, have you seen the thread about people taking pictures of where they been? Funny but you noticed you don't see any couches? Exactly.

    Also I was pretty clear there is a chat, it's not built in the game but it's an exterior chat that's perfectly acceptable and supports many languages. 

    And A)  There are clans. I told you this. Don't be obstuse. B) if you don't think this game is a common purpose I don't think you understand the point of the game. 

    Что вы не понимаете? Эта игра для игроков в GPS-играх, это не так, что вы можете сидеть дома. если вам не нравится передвигаться, вам не понравится игра. С уважением, вы видели поток людей, которые фотографируют, где они были? Забавно, но вы заметили, что не видите кушетки? В точку.

    Также было довольно ясно, что есть чат, он не построен в игре, но это внешний чат, который вполне приемлем и поддерживает многие языки.

    А) Есть кланы. Я сказал вам это. Не беспокойтесь. B) если вы не думаете, что эта игра является общей целью, я не думаю, что вы понимаете суть игры.

  4. Ahh! Now I understand! The car really threw me at first and I was super confused. Unfortunately, my friend, like everyone in America parks that way 😂. I parked like that at work the other day, and everybody in the loop be just ajusted and disregarded the lines 😉

    Ahh! Maintenant, je comprends! La voiture m'a vraiment jeté au début et j'étais très confus. Malheureusement, mon ami, comme tout le monde dans les parcs de l'Amérique de cette façon 😂. Je me suis garé comme ça au travail l'autre jour, et tout le monde dans la boucle soit juste ajusté et ne tient pas compte des lignes 😉

    • Haha 3
  5. Wait, so as I understand it: you do not like the game? And want changes? 

    I find your approach beyond strange, as it has not actually suggested anything except changes to the Nuclear system, something I'm loathe to see change. What exactly is the problem here? 

    Подождите, так я понимаю: вам не нравится игра? И хотите перемен?

    Я нахожу ваш подход сверх странным, поскольку он на самом деле ничего не предлагал, кроме изменений в Ядерной системе, я не хочу видеть изменения. В чем же проблема?

  6. Great idea! I love things that encourage more activity on the forums :)

    I was lucky and have had a chance to take DE on some great trips with me (and DE has spured me to take some great trips) 

    I will go ahead and share a few of the places I have traveled with DE so far, sorry for the file dump here lol. I hope you enjoy the photos. 

     

     

    Bonne idée! J'aime les choses qui encouragent plus d'activité sur les forums 🙂

    J'ai eu de la chance et j'ai eu la chance d'emmener DE en voyage avec moi (et DE m'a incité à faire de superbes voyages)

    Je vais aller de l'avant et partager quelques-uns des endroits où j'ai voyagé avec DE jusqu'à présent, désolé pour le fichier de décharge ici lol. J'espère que vous apprécierez les photos

    -poorly spelled something-

    I don't even understand what your saying... Your English sucks. Is there something we can help you with? The discord is a great place to go to learn about the game as we gave hundreds of happy players ready to assist if needed. Would you like an invite? 

  8. @Mr. D, I wanted so badly to respond to this post. But I doubt it I could do it as eloquently and wonderful as you did. I agree with you and have to say I find many of the Community Players actions repugnant. Thank you for your fabulous response. Once again, I'm impressed by your diplomacy with players who deserve none. 

    That being said I might be here just to see if you can hint at what the next update is? 😉😉😉 

    JK ik you can't tell yet 😉

    • Thanks 1
  9. Great update, smooths my ability to use the map with the filters. Also, I did notice one bug, when I have resources turned off when I zoom out i still get the collection of resources. Bug or feature? 

    Also: not to nitpick but... I'm still getting to messages crowding all over each other... (When collecting rss). Especially when I have utility structures and collect rss from my Supply Factory and other captured things... It's so messy and kinda hard to read at all. 

    Finally: have you increased the rate of Resource Stations spawning? I currently have 35 (ST at level 3)... it's great I'm just surprised... I used to be lucky to find a few in a week. 

    Thanks for keeping us updated !!

    Actually, it is more likely he was mobilizing new soldiers while he was being attacked. I am not sure if mid-attack transfers are even possible. That being said, should a 100 personnel mobilization be instantaneous?

    I personally think that if you bothered to travel somewhere and established new bases, it should be your advantage. Otherwise what's the point of having multiple bases?

    The game is about travel not war, so if you got your behind off the couch and walked a couple of mins to get more resources - this *should* help you win the war... IMHO

    Exactly, I think it *is* important to note that the title is Domination Earth. Domination. That requires military. Anyone who's ever tried take over the world has done it with an army.  And as far as we know, transatlantic transfers docurrently take more than a few seconds to complete. 

    I'm not saying I think it should be impossible to recruit new soldiers, I'm just suggesting it should take time. Transfers especially are ridiculous to be instantaneous, could you imagine? Your was walking down the street doing nothing, and suddenly decide you're going to steal a bike. You spot an unlocked bike, and walk up to steal it. Someone spots you call nine-one-one and BOOM! Cops show up. It's not logistically feasible or realistic. 

    And I think it's foolish to assume just because a lot of War has not occurred, that the game is not about war. I seem to see a lot of things being about war, combat mechanics or some of those solid in the game. AI's are major focus of many players, combat is huge we even haveba leader board for it, and one of the fundamental part of the game is having an army. Even recent updates have been focused on this with the new Wars menu. 

    I'm not arguing to end combat, rather than arguing for a better and more balanced combat. 

  11. Though, of course I have a sense of favoritism, (URAS is the Alliance I'm a member of after all) I concur that this is probably necessary, we could potentially see two major players just infinitely fighting one battle for hours on end just being resupplied with an unlimited Army. 

    As it is it is interesting that everything in this game seems to take time except for making troops and sending troops. Wouldn't it be more realistic for a 10-minute mobilization for a hundred troops? And a one-hour transfer between bases? I say realistic of course it's not realistic but it's a little more in line with other features. 

    Unfortunately I feel that it ends combat and turns it into a resource collecting game, if you collect more resources you win the war. 

    I'll be interested to see what Mr. D has to say on this.

  12. Well folks I have something new to report! The URAS has now launched our website, and we will be updating it and improving that as we go. You can visit the website here https://urasoffical.wixsite.com/uras
    And our discord here 
    https://discord.gg/6CWzx6

    For anyone that does not know, the United Republic of American States is an American alliance that is currently building itself up. We are the first large-scale alliance ever created and can boast many of the Top 10 in America. For more information visit our website or discord. (Don't pm me here, I forget to read those)

  13. I would just like to say that I would absolutely support all these things, the ability to share rss collection would give me a reason to create and be in an Alliance, and coordinated attacks would make it smart to be in an Alliance. 

    As it is I also feel that the alliance portion of the game has become stagnant and behind the times (if it was ever not). 

    It might be my personal feelings, when you get a group of people working cooperatively together I think they're going to be more willing to log on every day knowing that they're "a team" or someone "counting on them". 

    Let us know your thoughts, we would love to expand on this dialogue. 

  14. This update is pretty fantastic so far. I also have found the mini-lag with the lands menus annoying already, but as they mentioned im sure I'll get used to it. 

     The inventory stacking is great but it's also a bit perplexing as sometimes I just want to activate one if my items to grab some rss nearby but in private property, (actually this hadn't been a problem is a very long time, but as a beginner it was a problem) would it be possible to add a slide bar for how many to activate? If not, that's understandable and I'm sure it is still workable 🙂. 

    The ability to upgrade our inventory is absolutely fantastic and will definitely lead me to buy more Unobtainium, just two questions: how big can we get it? Annnd: can we go past 10 activated at a time? 

    Finally, best for last, the re-addition of built-in Google maps directions is epic!! I'm so so happy to see this future return... I didn't use it very often then and I don't think I will use it much now but it is still a favorite of mine and I'm glad to see it back. 

    P.s. Are there any plans to add rss trading? Rn it's impossible untill the players are level 10 bc they can't trade land (a reasonable idea). It does however make jump-starting our friends slightly harder.

    And what forum is bad? :)
    I would be very happy to chat in a discord or any other place, but it's one thing to jump in between developing "for a smoke break" here and responding to new posts, the other is messages coming in real time non-stop.
    I'm used to "multitasking", but not that much!:D

    Извините, что беспокою вас, но вы действительно свободно говорите на многих языках?

  16. Thank you for clarifying your goal with this update and the consecutive ones. I like a lot of what you have now mentioned and I enjoy the game still, despite my early misgivings. I do have one thing: can we keep the combination prices the same as they are now? I hated early pricing but the current ones are not terrible. 

    Also, because supplies now are much more valuable could we perhaps see the buff of the Supplies Factory? I like the additional 10 gold but buffing would be awesome. 

    I also love the greater use of the flag button. I know this is currently rather unpopular but I think it is a great fine tuning point. 

    8 hours ago, Mr. D said:

    There is going to be a brand new construction system that separates all buildings from their "land centre": i.e. instead of all structures appearing as a list in "My Lands", you would be actually placing each building one by one on a free space within your captured land (and the larger the land is, the more buildings you can place).

    You will then be able to visit each building (by walking to its spot on the map) and "check in" there to either repair or advance this building to the next level (you'll still be able to repair stuff remotely, but visiting the building will allow to restore a portion of its health for free).
    Both of these actions will advance your base to the next level and generate the surrounding resources, so this "construction management process" will hopefully replace the mechanics of placing new flags within an existing land.
    Additionally, this will allow to have multiple guard towers in different places within the same land, and increase your defensive capabilities against lots of small lands placed by enemies within.

    I hope that addresses the problems you highlighted in this thread! ;)

    I cannot give this idea enough love (like srsly I ran out of positive ratings on this forum 😂) I love this idea and think it makes alit more sense over the current system. My only fear is what happens to player that play in rual areas, or worse, near private property that they can't walk onto? Just to let it sit in the back of your mind
