Forwarded Replace GvG button with a QI button

[Mag.]

Reason

GvG has been discontinued. therefore, the GvG button should be something else.

Details

Whatever the button becomes it would be the same as clicking on that building in your city.
(ex1: if it became a QI button it would be the same as clicking on the building)
(ex2: if it became a GbG but then it would be the same as clicking on the building)etc.

Summary

GvG has been discontinued, therefore the GvG button should be something else.

Have you looked to see if this has already been suggested?

This is a repost of my original idea, because I don't think I put it very clear.

GvG has been discontinued, so there should be something in the button's place. I don't care if it's a quantum intersection, PvP Arena, cultural settlements, Guild Battlegrounds, historical allies, friends Tavern, antique dealer, or even the castle system button.

The QI button will have a nicer simplistic design like the rest of the buttons but this is just give you an idea.

 

[Rosiemarrie]

The GvG button should definitely be replaced. Why is there a button that does nothing when QI could easily go in its place.

 

[Thunderdome]

I support this idea! Inno, if you're not busy in trying to *insert for blank* your players, you may want to work on this. Thanks.

Maybe because they have told us they are working on a new GVG that they hope will be available next year.

-1 cause i think The Lady Redneck is right

When did they tell us that?????

 

[shad2389]

When did they tell us that?????

was not said clearly but here's where :
And to announce it here first for the first half of 2025, we will add a proper and scalable *%il$ $&. G*$%d, with a proper competitive design that we can build upon for years to come.

we think they are talking of gvg with this : *%il$ $&. G*$%d
cause gvg was full of bugs and the devs had lots of difficulty coding it for mobile so i can understand that the devs would be cursing when thinking of it
this was quoted from there :

[Sl8yer]

So basically they did not tell us anything and you are just voting based on wishful thinking. Seems rather shortsighted and stupid to me. It is just a buton. It can be changed anytime. I would say better something than nothing.

 

[shad2389]

i prefer to continue hoping i loved gvg

and based on that :

what do you think *%il$ $&. G*$%d could mean other then gvg ?

To be honest I think most of us forgot about it. Now I'm kind of mad, just improve QI before releasing yet another half backwards feature.

 

[Sl8yer]

Anything but GvG.

So you liked it. It is gone. Get over it. Less than 5% of the total player base played GvG. Bringing GvG or something similar back for just a few would be very stupid bussiness management.

Wise up. There are spoilers on almost anything except GvG. Shouldn't that tell you something?

 

[shad2389]

well if they could code something similar to it for mobile am sure mobile players would love it

and to answer that they might not have spilled the beans on it yet to keep the surprise as they have'nt leaked anything else that could be what
*%il$ $&. G*$%d could be so am still hoping

 

[Sl8yer]

You are just fooling yourself. Majority of PC players did not play it. Even if you look at PC players only it was still just a small percentage that played GvG. Why should that be different for mobile?

and to answer that they might not have spilled the beans on it yet to keep the surprise as they have'nt leaked anything else that could be what
*%il$ $&. G*$%d could be so am still hoping

Yeah right. They spill the beans on everything, but this they want to keep a surprise. Not spilling anything can only mean 3 things. One they have not started working on it yet. Very unlikely considering how long developing new things take. Two It isn't GvG. Very likely. Three, they have already spilled some info on it, which means it isn't GvG, but something else you would not link to *%il$ $&. G*$%d

In the whole concept of the game GvG did not mean a thing. That a few fanatics keep going on about it does not change that,

 

[shad2389]

Majority of PC players did not play it.

realy ??? gvg was heart and soal of the game and what it was truly about Fighting and way it was worded is that this will be a new feature not some event or anything that has been already leaked

I agree with @Sl8yer on this. I've played for over 4 years, PC only. Except for the first year I have been in a top 3 guild on two of my worlds. GvG was not given any priority and was rarely discussed. I stuck a toe in the water early on but all of the activity occurred at 8PM my time. Well beyond a time I felt like playing. Treasure your memories but GvG was a dinosaur.

Yes really.

GvG has never been the heart and the soul of the game. Maybe only for the few players that played it and those can be compared to Swifties. They don't want to hear any bad word about it and they live in their own universe.

You need to realise that something played by only a very small percentage of the player population isn't the heart and the soul of the game. With the introduction of Battlegrounds Inno stated they would keep GvG. They even did not do that because of the limited number of players still playing it. Time you open your eyes and accept reality.

 

[Thunderdome]

From the eyes of most developers, the PC/browser market is the dinosaur, as they gear on making more games for the mobile market... or, at least that was some of the reps of other games had told me many years back when I asked why they are closing their PC/browser game despite they had a solid player base.

However, I agree with @Sl8yer and @Pericles the Lion that GvG is past its prime. Only a few guilds had played this. Those on mobile devices can play FoE via Puffin (before they put in that part that one must pay), or even use TeamViewer to access their computer and play FoE for the GvG. I had done that.

When I was in my own guild, I had a hard time trying to understand how this works as I cannot just hit any sector upon opening the map. In another game, I can do that in terms of difficulty so I can slowly build up my reign. Once I had started on a tile, I had to keep hitting until it returns green in my favor. And then load up the units for defense.

I guess this is how I get my call into a guild as some took notice of my activity there, heh heh.

 

[shad2389]

most ppl i talked to when i played gvg and they were on mobile wanted gvg to become something on mobile

Only a few guilds had played this.

realy ????
only on Langandorn 4021 guilds were ranked in gvg on Korch 4042 guilds were ranked in gvg when they scraped it thats only 2 worlds
i don't call that only a few guilds
i don't know where you take your numbers to say only a few guilds , my numbers are official numbers and still posted in global guild rankings
number of guilds went down a lot when they scraped gvg
clic on global then guilds then on small cup bottom left corner of that you'll see am right a lot more then a few guilds were playing gvg

 

[Thunderdome]

i don't know where you take your numbers to say only a few guilds

Beta. Gave up playing the live servers.

But I can say, not much is going on if a 1-man guild as myself would cherry pick some of the sectors in GvG from other guilds.
