make it so moons can be probed with one clik instead of it being a paid feature of commander

so all players can probe moons with out having to go thru the full fleet set up and send bit.

Thundersheep · Feb 9th 2015, 3:09pm

I'm afraid that will not happen bro.
It's one of the best features of having comander.

Blackmass · Feb 9th 2015, 5:20pm

not really the best paid features of commander is the building que and seperation of messages into sub catagorys

so buy making moon probing a one clik non paid feature would give back to the players since there is so many paid for features now

Lunituni · Feb 10th 2015, 12:08am

as thunder said, there is no reason for GF to take away moon probing as premium function because most fleeters, myself included, pay not for building que but for the function in question

Blackmass · Feb 10th 2015, 6:23pm

well with all the paid features something needs to be giving back to us non paying players

and yes i have and use dm when i can afford it but

lets look at it this way

dm buyers get all officers

can buy resources

relocate planets

what do non paying players get nothing

so why not make it free for all players

Lunituni · Feb 10th 2015, 7:40pm

Because it is a big moneymaker

Too many people buy the commander, and thus DM, just because of this feature. They were nice and gave people RSS for free, when it was commander only earlier. They won't do that again, no corporation would cut their profits that much just for looks.

Officers <-- clicky

Change officers roles a bit and change their benefits a bit. Make moon scan free and all officers desirable. If moon scanning was free you'd have a HUGE surge in competitive fleeting IMO. 90% of the players who don't pay mine at best, and turtle or inactive at worst. You can make small adjustments on officers so people still buy them and also give everyone free moon scan, its a win for everyone.

pff, if commander let me do expeditions and not clog up my normal fleet slots I'd actually use that part of the game. Expeditions are a waste of fleet slots, unless of course you could pay so they didn't use your fleet slots. Take RSS away from everyone except players who buy DM for commander as well. It'll make fleeters happy that not ever single noob on ogame gets messaged as soon as they're probed etc etc etc #RSS rant goes here

Admiral should be about benefiting your fleet in COMBAT not fleet slots. A +10% on your ships WSA stats is probably worth paying for if you're a fleeter, and not such a huge boost like BUYING RES

Give miners a 10% boost on mines with Geologist but no boost for fleeters? Give the masses moon probing and make the commander worth buying still. I'd bet if people were in a competitive universe they might use other pay features like relocations much more often to hunt the many fleets free moon probing would be bound to create.

I think the 10% boost for minors is the boost for fleeters. And they don't even have to pay for it! 8p I guess it depends what they do with the resources or how quickly. Not to argue with any of the other points in any way. But I'll assume that was their logic.

But you did just give me an interesting idea. IF and when they get free slots for Dens, the geologist could trigger them not taking up slots somehow. Just need a way to deal with when the bonus is gone. Maybe they just take up potentially over your max and you can't build until you do something. Remembering of course that all deconstruction efforts also take time and resources. So it's not an easy out some would make it out to be. In fact it is completely the opposite.

It would count as a way to momentarily build over your previous max with a consequence when over. But hopefully that is faster and cheaper than what you used it for. So, it would be up to the player to measure the ups and downs.

Or if everyone gets free dens maybe they cost less to build or are built faster. That could be a bonus anyway. -10%-50% reduction in cost and/or time to build/deconstruct for dens.

Who is using a queue when you are having an advanced account?
The fact that you find this so annoying actually proves it's one of the best features.

Blackmass · Feb 20th 2015, 8:22pm

no its not annoying but as a non dm fleeter the pain of going thru 5 steps or 3 steps to probe a moon is time consuming and
a waste of time i mine and fleet so to make probing moons a free feature will incourage more players to fleet and raise the activity in most unis.

depending on how brave most players are and what they are willing to risk.

more so when several people are not on mobil devices to use the free rss feed.

with version 6.0.0 it will be possible without commander (sending recyclers from the galaxy view, too)

Killacrazy · Feb 27th 2015, 10:43pm

I believe that means this goes to the implemented section

Lunituni · Feb 27th 2015, 11:11pm

I must say... this comes out of the blue

Thundersheep · Feb 27th 2015, 11:49pm

I just read and saw, strange move but i'm not complaining

Blackmass · Feb 28th 2015, 5:06am

im suprised and happy all at once .
