    Your anger is understandable and I will pass it on. The main reason such button does not exist is actually because according to our game designers and marketing guys such pop up would annoy more then that accidently spending annoys.

    Such pop ups would have to be used to frequently when doing stuff e.g. speeding up buildings you speed up 12hours at a time if you need to speed up 2 days you'd be met with 4 times this pop up. Making true spending annoying which they from a marketing perspective find a bad idea.

    This is the reasoning why such button does not exist and is not planned. I do however argue you could make a settings option whether or not you want such comfirmation button

    For me personally the air units have always been wonky(bugged 'featured') but I'm fairly sure our Heads of Customer Services are willing to help you out.

    What I do know of them is that bombers are mainly to hit ground units and fighters are mainly to defend against bombers which patrol is for. But there are some border cases and 'features' you can use with them that go in to deep for me to know.

    Usually 1 bomber will win vs a single battleship as naval units defend wit 20% of their strength ground units with 10%

    Well the count is just some small indication if ou lose a battleship you also lost a 1000 units a tank brigade also a 1000 units while in reality tank brigades would be smaller then infantry brigades etc. In the RP community we used to count differently depending on unit type and ones even suggested such a change to bytro. But as it's pure to have some sort of figure placed on it so I fear bytro wont find this important enough to change. You do however have a point if you look at army sizes (according to wikipedia)

    German Army 1914: 3.800.000 soldiers
    French Army 1914: 4.000.000 Soldiers

    Russian Army 1914: 6.000.000 Soldiers

    etc.

    Don't even waste your time discussing your ideas here. It's pointless.

    If I may. The biglist was originally a community attempt to make the ideas more classified easier found etc etc.

    Bytro has not ordered us to do so and does not own that list. We hoped that with a list and with what we wanted to have "approval" ratings that bytro could get a clear view of what the community finds important. I wont deny it bytro has shifted it's development power to Supremacy1. And before that to a Revamp and before that to NWE and before that to... You might also notice I wrote more in this thread then the "added to big list" message which I do in most thread if I have an opinion on the idea. So saying the forum moderators only add a generic reply is wrong...

    If I'm 100% honest in my opinion I do doubt a lot of ideas are even looked at by the devs. But I would like the community to realize we forum moderators are at first user/players and part of the community. So I would like to ask to not put the blame on the messenger. You want to know how many devs I've spoken as moderator and even senior moderator? the number counts to 0, or wait 1 on CoW on its first release day there was 1 in the CoW chat. We have no influence on the game design. Even when they preannounce changes and we tell them stuff they are going to implement is a bad idea they just ignore us as we're the moderation crew not the community so we can't know that the users wouldn't like trade limitations/Auto firing at neutrals /... That's about how much influence we have on policies and gamefeatures.

    You guys as community have a stronger influence then we have so I would say that I wouldn't advice to stop discussing /giving feedback etc as despite the influence and manpower on new ideas being small. If we never discuss them then for certain they wont ever have a chance of showing up. Every ones in a while bytro does implement user suggestions (e.g. cavalry) so then it is handy that when they decide to look at user ideas they can find a list of possibilities that the users suggested.

    The issue seems unrelated to this update could you send in a bugreport ticket, that gives the devs acces to more information then they can see from a forum post. A early issue was that the graphic cards drivers were however not installed correctly so before sending in a bugreport you might want to take a look at those.

    I am attacking a unit that is embarking, already lost one unit and it is still showing the embarking unit has strength of 1.0 >>>> I was taught that units are 1/3 rd strength while disembark and embarking,

    It has always been only when disembarking. When embarkign they are considered 'on land' when disembarking they are considered "In the sea"

    and some feedback from players and community, not from CMs and Teams as I believe there is huge difference between feedback from both groups

    tbh I think the teams gave the same feedback internal as the community is doing right now. We are however a "small part of the community" so usually you guys' have more power in the discussion.

    I played frontline and got no option to voice my opinion or give feedback for anything other than reporting BUGS in the maps... seems the real purpose of frontline pioneers is to work out bugs in maps because it is forgone conclusion that these changes will be taking place

    Best to give feedback on the forum under the frontline pioneer part

    you can consider feedback an issue I guess.

    Some one posted about new changes in 'Elite AI /bug chat topic', that new price would be minimum of 3.0 and would max/cap at 30.0 any numbers in between should be easy to set, just can not set price at 1.0 anymore. minimum price on stock market is now 3.0

    when typing you can neither start with 1 when trying to type ein 12 that's the issue I got confirmation that bytro is going to fix this as soon as possible so either next update or the one after that.

    have not seen a word about nerfing cavs,arts and planes and as you can imagine someone who uses only cavs, planes or arts should be informed about changes before he losses them in a fight due to dev's changes

    How I've been informed this 'change' slipped in without actually being ment. So thats why it hasn't been announced I'm guessing as it wasn't ment it could be considered a bug (for now) so if you have more information you might want to submit a bug report with concrete values of how it changed.

    Let me back up what Edwylm said. You all may give opinions but you need to do it in a respectfull way else bytro will just shut it down. Most people dislike the current update and I agree with some. If we try to bring that to attention in a respectfull way bytro might do changes ones more to bring the game to a level that we want it to be.

    As moderators we are offcourse 'forced' to enforce the rules even if we agree with the anger that exists in the community but the only way to change is constructive feedback and hopefully bytro listens to the community.

    trade could be limited but right now is just reciculous it was indeed done to "fix" (read workaround) bugs but killing the lone wolf and the RPer at the same time. Why not make resource trade a bit more fairer only ratio's between 1:1 and 1:5 be allowed as I guess this is all about unfair trades but then still people woul dhave work arounds... I'm fairly certain this hits regular users more then it hits cheaters...

    we could ask for the newspaper removal, too complex

    I asked bytro to change the figures to stick figures and just make the game rock paper sissors...

    Now after the jokes... As RPer, and user I can only say I agree with many users here... They effectively killed RPing no more trading no more landshuffline only coalition no more using factories for rent as additional income for small RP nations... Thank you for killing the way of playing that was the reason I was still here.

    They also actively killed any lone wolfe player as he can not trade with random people to fill his needs. He can still fight the best he can but is kinda handicapped due to this.

    On the banning, Bytro either needs to overrule me but as long as you guys keep it civil there wont be bans for giving your opinion. I still believe only with feedback can this game transform for the better. This is the second time bytro changes quite core mechanics that have been this way for years and years... They realize very well it will upset users but I believe they at times underestimate how much it upsets users.
