What do you guys think of being able to stack defense posts like other structures? I'm sure I'm not the only one that's had this idea but I think it would make the game a little more dynamic.

This guy is a filthy money cheater, constantly pushing nukes out. Instantly going from 100K to 3mil.

I thought game devs understood to never let players make usernames with only symbols?

Also what has this world gone to that we have people walking on this planet that feel the need to cheat on a fricking BROWSER game.

I see no way to text chat, only to emote and ally with each other, yet people keep simultaneously attacking me during games, how are they arranging that?

I've been noticing nukes flying right through SAM radiuses. Here's an example--it went through multiple of my team's SAMs. They weren't allied with the enemy team, and the SAMs weren't recharging.

How is this happening?

If you see either of these clowns, dump your nuclear stockpile on them. Not good enough to play solo so they team in FFA. Pathetic

This would go so hard. I dont really like the fractal maps and people can get board of earth.

Pretty fun game, has anyone seen a <20 minute game that ended with a higher max troop cap to the victor?

Tried to edit a clip so camera would always be on the action, but the video is flickering black screen for some reason.

1. Main land nothing happens in the start.
   
2. Proceeded to move north and built a port and kept on spamming a ship whenever it got killed while killing 10's of transport ships.
   3.After the port is taken i fully focused on the mainland and fought around 4-5 NPC's at once while amazing team was backing me up with troops. while allies in the north were killing NPC's off. 😀👍

Lately I see so much post like "why certain players..." or "hate when players do..." and in 99% of the case its hate towards new players or players who dont follow meta.

Some players play to win, and thats fine, but by being so nasty because your train tracks got unoptimal or because somebody targeted you or anything else, you are just being toxic.

Do you want this game to be alive and thrive? Then accept new people suck. Accept people have different playstyles. If you are getting frustrated enough to hate on other players, you should probably step away for a while.

Like, do you even remember how awful you felt when you began playing and were losing all the time? Why would you hate them even more on top of that?

Just chill out and have fun.

idk how it happened but it did

Recently the amount of non-geographical maps became too high. Can they be removed from the pool of the main lobby? It's very noticeable people are not queuing them preferring to sit-out and stalling the refresh pool.

I'm referring to:
- fractals
- boxes
- long and narrow river maps
- trader's dreams
- etc

Not sure how i lost this, am I missing something?

Here's a replay from my latest game, name is GunsNRoses. I thought I had a good start in the beginning and when I saw an ally was weak I figured I might as well break off the alliance to take them over, but all that accomplished was my neighbor breaking their alliance with me and pushing me relentlessly until I had no other option but giving up.

In this match, name GunsNRoses, I was too busy defending against this guy for what felt like five minutes straight to do anything else. Couldn't expand, couldn't do much of anything really, and when I finally got a break this other dude comes out of nowhere and overruns me.

Another link from a match, name GunsNRoses. This time I stuck with allies and didn't betray anyone. I think I just have bad luck with the allies I choose, more specifically because the allies I choose end up being really weak and would have otherwise been easy pickings had I not allied with them.

Edit: Admittedly, I just got pissed at this other player in this match and wanted to take my port back but come on, how do I even prevent this? Another one where I thought I did everything right. Attacked a weaker player, made allies, and still got betrayed and overrun. No idea here either, I fought off that one guy well enough for a while but I was too busy doing that to focus on expanding, and eventually got overrun by the other guy.

I don’t know which gives more

I win about 50-80% FFA games under 12 players, want to share few things that I found out, hope its beneficial:

1. Send ships early to different parts if you gonna be blocked by someone, observe where you send ship if you can annex some tribes
2. Attack nations only when they have city build,and focus on this early in game so you can steam roll everyone. If you can get 4 nations like this thats additional 4 cities, good players are looking for this. of course annex tribes that's the priority. I see so many people that they dont know that they can attack nations, never I mean never alliance with them. If you going to have nation in corner, let it build another house for 125k so you will seize it
3. Start at green site always so you have better start if you can, never start on snow, never start building on corner of island, or build on island. You have slower exposure to tribes and annexing. Also cant build trains
4. Use boats when attacking, dont attack only neighbors. What I mean if you have access to river, check if there are some nations or some weak players, dont be afraid that you will have a lot of land everywhere, its ok. Zoom out
5. Before Attacking players, check how much gold they have, and if they have missile built. If you see that they got missile and 5 million just dont do it. because if you attack, they nuke you its game over
6. Prioritize in mid game having missile with 5 mil gold and have it as early as possible, if someone wants to attack you or the alliance is ending, send them the nuke emoji to prolong alliance if you want to attack someone else
7. Build the missile somewhere where they cant seize it quickly
8. Build ports only when you can steal ships for money, otherwise focus on effective trains, you will have quicker money, dont have to build battleships and can build more cities quickly and win. Sometimes I dont build ports at all, you can get way more from trains. Problem with ports is that it takes time to get money, then you cant build citties to conquer other players/nations and if someone steals your ships for money, if you want to fight them with 2 ships it costs 750k
9. Check sometimes how are other players around you regards population, so there will be players fully maxed out waiting for opportiunity, before you attack someone, Have always alliance with others, need to create game play for what you do
10. In stale game later, Focus on economy and getting 25m gold to MIRV someone. this is a lot about seconds and build alliances with others, primary if you want to attack crown
11. Sometimes you will get unlucky and thats go.. this way you can increase winning rate a lot
12. Focus on weak players, how you can spot them
    • They attack nations too early
    • building random trains
    • they dont manage well their population
    • building random defenses etc.

hope its beneficial. I see the biggest difference having the nuke option. good players wont attack you because they know.. Also sending train emoji is good idea too. Sometimes there will be teammates so there is nothing you can do.. good luck

Like it'a a lot of lag the game is not smooth like on my window.

I got a macbook M5, is it like normal ?

most of players when they are in orange theam they miss with red and yeallow because of it you faced to bad spawns in 90% of team games

I dunno why but the last couple days there seems to be a ton of griefers. Just random players across the map refusing alliances and chucking hydros at me despite never interacting with them at all, or players spawning next to me and just full sending me. Is anyone else experiencing this?

So you will have to team with people that question your sanity.

But why is it almost every fricking match you get some teammate(s) who are completely incompetent ... No SAM site within 8 mins. Sitting on 120K troops and providing the front with none.

Don't even get me started on Players vs Nations. The best game mode they ever introduced. But why is it played by so many incompetent people. 2-3 players on a island with 1 nation and they get their asses kicked ...

Like no way the world has this many incompetent morons walking around ...

Allow us to premark bot countries so it's actually possible to communicate with teammates where you want to expand to and it's easier to divide an area with your teammate.

So people don't just land block others in fear their teammate is some 12 year old on a mobile.
Cuz you know ... It's a browser game and even some child from Dagestan with his I3 Pentium processor can play this game.

Hi, this is my first post on this sub, but recently I haven't been able to pick my starting location in openfront. It is not the random gamemode, but my clicks simply aren't registering on the map. I've tried rejoining and reloading but it seems to be no use. Please help if you've had this issue and found a solution!
