GvG is too hard and too costly a project.
They have just been letting it linger/rot/die as it is.
Unless FoE is completely rewritten (and with flash dying, one can certainly hope FoE will be rewritten), you should not expect any major improvement.
And even so, my guess is that it would still be too costly.
Yes. I agree with that. GvG is was a tiny mistake to project it on this kind of flash programing, and they know it.
That is why they came out wth expeditions, to make people busy with something else and more happy.
But in any way, there could be some tiny improvements which they could do....even now...
1.remove all flash icons when battling, remove all those icons when a battle finishes, this is slowing it down really. We dont need to count them nor see them. To make it faster!!! those little shields and swords jumping,you know? this can be removed... And the game will be less permanently freezing. All those nonsense graphics things might be removed to make it faster.
2.
The All Ages Era must be improved, that we can choose which units would be loaded, not all,
and then it will be faster, cos now it loads all units and it takes a second or two to load, and this second can be a win or loss...
3. When one team is with 5 players and the other one with only 2 players online battling, this one with 2 players can win, but needs to reload the siege army more times, cos usually those with 5 players are faster. That way it would be ok. But now it it that those with 5 players obstruct the system by making it freezing for those with 2 players. I dont know exactly where is the mistake but this must be done to improve. Cos the team with 2 players sees all those tiny swords jumping and jumping and this is really annoying. I dont know why it cannot be porgrammed that we dont see nothing, only how many of our siege is away and then noting at all,
no blinking no flashing, nothing, just pure fights!!!
Simply, to program it that way that regardless of a computer system you use, it will be the same for all (notebooks, classic PC, linux, windows, internet connection) to make it fast, as fast as possible, that everyone can play. Thus - remove all flashing or i dont know what exactly...
