Codymo7 Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 I think that it would not be a bad idea to feature an event that resembles world war 2 specifically. I understand that pro players don't want to play with noobs. Noobs can't learn unless they are taught by someone however. For the event I was thinking maybe a new map be made. Split the map to where there are only a couple of land access ways to the opposite side of the map, if not just one land bridge. Make a limit for the player cap, say 90 players. Two teams (overrides your league for the duration of the battlefield) Axis and Ally. Every other player is moved to one side of the map and placed onto the team regardless. This will mix up the big name teams and help even the skill level in theory. Have rebel cities still around the map for people to be able to expand still. But allow there to be major battles to decide the battlefield's outcome. Keep everything the exact same, just shift the map around some. The increased amount of water between the teams increases the appeal of amphibious landings and massive ship based invasions. (Maybe include the rebel cities you have on the standard battlefields that line the edge of the maps for vantage points) In theory I think this would work. Not so many players that the map is bogged down and cant allow growth for the players on each team, due to the rebel cities added between the players. Once a team is feeling froggy they can plan and mass an attack. I get that time zones are an issue but that's where skill and strategy comes into play. Who can defend initial attacks the best, who can capitalize on their enemy being asleep first. Of course please add your critiques. I think that with the game growing this could be something different that really grabs the loyal players' attention. I would also recommend a chat app to stay in touch with your teammates not only for this event, but for the game in general (I personally like Line - I use it for several other games that I play regularly). I have played periodically for a few months now, can't find an active enough team that I can get to know and enjoy playing with. I lose interest unless I can form relationships with my teammates sadly Please add your thoughts and ideas. In theory I think it could work, in practice.. it's hard saying. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codymo7 Posted April 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 I'm glad the idea has sparked some interest. Hopefully more people will add input to build on the idea. It will even out game play for the new players and give them a chance to learn. Because a team is only as good as its weakest link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ1 Posted April 28, 2017 Report Share Posted April 28, 2017 I like the idea of axis vs allies. No leage or allies to contend with. And it would get some of the veteran guys working with noobs to win. Could be good league razzing too if we got split up. Very good idea.

MkV Posted April 28, 2017 Report Share Posted April 28, 2017 One side benefit is in order to this, they would need to flush out the skins. I've been a proponent of this because I'd like to see them sell national skins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willrockrrr Posted May 20, 2017 Report Share Posted May 20, 2017 If JoyCraft does this, then how will leauges or players be choosen for the axis vs allies, and will the battlefeild or storyline (if storyline) reflects a real battle or just a title for a normal globel war Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mastercheifs Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 This is similar to what they use to have in a map called golden empire. I thought it was a great Mao and great idea. Was very challenging Mao was sorta like isles Map and tourney map combined. Was all great fun they had two sides I forget the name but I was in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codymo7 Posted May 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2017 As long as they use a randomizer and a roughly symmetric map, maybe small islands like in isles, but keep those small clusters evenly balanced by skill level and obviously count of each side it should work well in theory.

Bloodmancer Posted May 27, 2017 Report Share Posted May 27, 2017 When the game first started it was similar to this. The only problem was that it was more PVE than PVP and you had a tendency to got boxed out by allied forced from important resources if you didn't move fast. It made the game difficult.

JJ2king Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 If JoyCraft does this, then only two leagues will compete eachother and will pick which side they want to be and make a vote on it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redbullx Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 Not a bad idea but what about if we can change the scenery in this game like a Pearl Harbor map Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codymo7 Posted August 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 Any word about releasing a new map? All of the old players are leaving and I think something like this would be a big spark for those players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
