Sir Emi I was under the impression that the War server was for the hardcore players that wanted more of a challenge. and that the regular server was for people that want the ease of use and less challenging parts of the game. I very much enjoy the war server myself. But From what I have been hearing here and the complexity of the game with ship building and all it might be better to keep the basic server like it was or at least keep the ability to attack via the rank page part of it with the attacks costing the amount of turn it would take to get to them. if travaling the Galaxy. that way the casually player can still do thier attacks and all, but they will still have to pay the turns. Thus allowing the same idea of searching the galaxy but not having to on the main server. This will get people used to the idea. and thus the alliance wars will not be so hard but will cost turn as well as allowing them to attack the commanders using little actual time. My self I have transfered most all my time to the war server because I love the hunt and the new challenge. but for the average player that dont have hours to sit and play I believe the change is bad overall to the main server. let them learn the basics of the game on the main server and give them the option to come to the war server when they have learned. there is a lot of shock to most folks on the main server. US old players love it for the most part those of us that remember round 1 and 2. but others dont like it is seems. and I do believe that Drakken is correct and so is Bad guy about it making the game take too much time for the alliance wars on the main server.

The war server sounds interesting and less time-consuming. Too bad that you can't move your ship designs between servers and also get some benefit from having gold on main server. For me it's too much time to start over again in another server, especially without the benefit of a gold account.

i thought i liked it but i was wrong. i was attacked today only lost p-ships and the commander 0ed himself trying . but he left no attack sig. and i could not even counter. he didnt even neb me but come on. i read in the forums a while back that there were not going to be any changes in this round change happened in a big way. also from what i have been seeing this new system kills new players. you find a new player sitting in a system with no ships and send in a few hundred decoys and bam! you nail him for hundreds of segs. i stopped doing it because i think that will really hurt this game. the new players will suffer, are ability to aid alliances members is hindered, counters seem to be a thing of the past. i ask veteran players who really dont need segs to not nail high number new players so as not to chase off new blood. changes bad! bad! bad! BRING BACK S.O. THE WAY IT WAS!!!!

I really think the idea of being able to see everyone in the ranks as before but having you spend the turns to get to them would be the most realistic way to implement changes and to make it more realistic the farther away they are the more inaccurate the coordinates will be so that you may have to make several jumps to get to them with the closer you are the more accurate the coords. I also agree that the new counter system sucks as this now gives a huge advantage to the attacker as you may never be able to counter.

Maybe a solution to countering would be "You opened a temporary wormhole, you may now counter attack this commander (x) amount of times. Wormhole will return you to your point of origin after you have countered"

i fell in love with this game on my first and second rounds, were mothership missions were based on power and you didnt need the galaxy and non-stop hours of play to get to the top ten...
once emi started to change it i tried to stick along with it for hope that maybe it will get better or at least go back, but it never did, it just kept going down hill.. now this.. i wont even bother logging onto my account on spaceo anymore.. its boring as hell... change it back!

Still think you should need to try to give both servers a huge difference instead of letting them look like eachother.

true SOW is ment to take along time. SO ain't ment for that. we have SOW for the war tactics. why make it so on SO aswell. doesn't make since to me. clearly it's an unpopular decision with the players. i can log onto SOW r SO and without looking at my ships. i wouldn't know what server i was on.
