Here are the propositions i make.

1st off . The buildings should build much faster, and we dont wait 1 month so we have single fight.
2           The  stars at the end should be obtained mostly from battle points and tonnage killed, not from planet count.
3          The retreat should be MUCH  harder. Nowdays every alliance can hide and even if you catch them ,they will retreat on the 2 tick no problem.
4           The edgeless galaxies were MASSIVE mistake. They allow the bigger allliances to cooridnate and attack everyone evry time.Bring back the  galaxies with edge .
5           The general should get some extra bonuses as player, for his , non sleeping and watching over the others.
6           Some species balance is needed. The turians should be nerfed abit ,lets say reducing their shield value by 5%, so from 15 average  and Nm on 21% they become 10 and 15. They are waay op atm. The gorgots are op aswel. 10% dmg buff to all weapons is enough ,considering the very good habs they have to meet every time.The drall..
7           The ship movement  should be incriesed with 50%.  I mean for the radius of planets covered by certain engine speed. That way an ganged alliance will actually have a chanse of catching all attackers better.
8. James.T reminded me of something.  Its about the new players.
I suggest there must be invented A bonus system for a alliances with proven new players , that can be teached by the vets inside.The vets has to have a motivation to teach the rookies. I suggest small bonus for each week the newbie is alive in that alliance , to all members inside.
Like tagged alliances.
9. Oh and i almost forgot,make the general to move all ships in same time already, even the non adf- ones.. damn we are missing that option for a loooooooong time. Im sick of moving all ships manually.

 

Hi
In the last DM99 i had the situation, that my ally was inactive for 15h per day ..or longer----..AND he had no Rallypoint. SO....whenever his ships were ready..I spent like 20 minutes to send each of them to the desired Destination, which - frankly speaking - wasn't a job i liked very much.

Wouldn't it be nice if we had world peace ---ack...another idea --- no.., wouldn't it be nice, if there was an option that says: send all avaiable ships to destination xy?
Or even more cunning...make the fleet control drop down list a list, where multiple planets could be selected (like the send-ships-list) (maybe the list even shows, how many ships are on each Systems) and then enables us to give such nice fleet commands? Thats would save us much time.

The new map is nice..i love the hab-comparison, but wouldnt it be more suitable, to make the actual MAP "clickable" instead of working with the slider-bars to move the section you are viewing?

In General...it would be nice, if the Retreat-Option would work a bit better for all. In this game...over the last decade...it was always like: build up....fight ONE big fight...lose ...game Over...or win...continue.......it would be a great deal longer FUN and mistakes by a newb or too prgressive General would be not as deadly as they are today.

An idea is bouncing in my mind the last few days. I dont know why the server is down so often lately / because lots of players comeback and the server is a bit busy, or just problem with the hardware/ but it was like everyday for the last 5-6 days no space for 4-6 hrs .

SO THE IDEA IS i nice rollback :S 

Soon autumn, hurry to say goodbye to summer!).
