    i think there was a trading-market like that some time ago where players could offer ships and others could buy them.


    i dont know why they removed it, but im sure it was abused in some way.


    but i think the idea that the transaction will take some time (via transport or some other way to make it not instant) is new.


    i would love that, but maybe someone else who knows why it was shut down could comment.

    i think they are doing polls about what the next new server should look like before opening one. at least about some of the settings.


    so you want a server with war-fleet speed x1 and ACS? anything else important for you?

    well it would essentially turn out to be a loophole for multiple accounts in the same uni. you just make an account on EVERY server and then merge them.


    and after you have merged them you make accounts on ALL servers again. rinse and repeat.


    i understand that you were trying to find a way to make your old accounts "useful" again, but this would be a mess and would get abused into oblivion.


    btw i love your crazy ideas, they are very entertaining haha

    when you fleet save properly it is VERY hard to catch your fleet. the attacker will have to destroy your moon and then keep lanxing for possibly HOURS. the entire attack, started from destruction of your moon until you recall your fleet from deploy mission, may take the attacker more than half a day.


    now you want to tell me that it is fair that the defender can spend ~30 seconds of his day to counter the attack, just because the attacker did not manage to make a t-0 hit on your fleet?


    i'm sorry but that makes no sense. at this point ogame is no longer a war game.


    i guess it is all about what game we want ogame to be. now we can play "my little farm" and just keep building and nobody can harm you.


    that is not the game that we signed up for.


    the only way that your fleet should be 100% save is when you recall deploy before you go to bed. which means that your fleet will be on the move for more than 16 hours per day.

    if you spend this much time to properly save your fleet every day then it is fair that your fleet is indestructible.


    everything else is game breaking. if you do not agree than better play "my little farm" or something. ogame was never meant to be this save.

    why is a tower in chess not allowed to move diagonally?

    since when is a lone queen more powerful than a knight in real life?


    realism does not (necessarily) make a good game. in fact, it can destroy a game completely.


    i am not saying that your suggestions are not good, but to make changes to a game for the sole reason to make it more realistic or logical is not worth striving for when it can destroy the game.

    Even if you start the relocation 1 minute before the event ends, you will pay half price when the relocation happens. As long as you started the relocation before the event ends, you will benefit from the discount.

    thank you

    i just read that the DM for a relocation will be subtracted from your account after 24 hours.


    will i still get the relocation event offer if i start relocating now or will i pay the full price because the event ends in 6 hours?

    Thank you for your reply.
    I have also found that the Phallanx task doesn’t fulfill either.

    easiest way is to spy an inactive player and immediately lanx him. your lanx will see your spy probe and task is completed.

    i would love that. but i think it could be an existential threat to the company.


    what if, slowly, all players started only playing there now?

    if you are alone with 3 other DM buyers in a universe, that would be no fun without being able to farm the 100+ normal players.

    all normal players move to the no DM uni. whales no longer have incentive to buy and the company goes bankrupt.


    how real is that threat?

    i don't think anyone could calculate that risk and for that reason, we will never see a uni without ress packages, unfortunately.

    box of pandora can not be closed. it's either all unis have DM or none.


    (i don't have a degree in game design or finance so i might be wrong, but that is what i think the reason is)
