Why is this poll necessary? Dirty_Player has been inactive online for almost a year, and even before that, he wasn't considered a hardcore player.
So what? I'll be active again in a month. Therefore, the fact that I haven't played for a year doesn't mean anything. That's why this topic is being raised. With the current state of affairs, I don't even want to play in tournaments, imagining how drawn-out it could become. Oelm
Now, everyone should understand that a chess timer and a replayable quick battle are needed in SOD, and only after that does it make sense to return to this topic.
Yes, I agree. A chess timer is needed. And a quick battle is also very much needed. R55Max
And considering that one player got tough units, and the army was weakened (for example, grand units or marksmen were killed on the first day due to morale), the chess timer will decrease at an exponential rate, becoming increasingly unfair just because the battles are longer, even if they are passable.
Especially for R55Max. I'm writing in a different color because you wrote so much, but you don't understand what a chess timer is. A chess timer is when you make your first move, e2-e4, in one second, and you spend an HOUR on sacrificing a queen. Don't be an idiot!!! The time in battle is NOT relevant here!!!! How can I get this across to you? The idea in Heroes is the same. Save time on simple moves and spend the accumulated time on making serious decisions. Just as you were slow on the zombies, you will continue to be slow. The time in battle is a separate issue!!!! Is that clearer? KobRa_RR
Many people find it convenient to do their own things (family, work, playing, etc.) during their opponent's turn; many find it inconvenient.
Tema, I respect you, but personally, I wouldn't want someone to waste our shared time on solving their own problems during the game. Especially when some people don't make their move and do their own things. KobRa_RR
So, there's a chess timer; agree on it. In the end, there's Alessandro with 600+300; join forces and play.
No problem. This isn't about a specific game. I can always find someone to play a casual game with. There's already a whole queue of people who have signed up to play with me after the new year. This is about tournaments, where we can't choose our own rules and opponent. Oelm
But who forces you? You can play 1 game a week without much harm to everything else.
I have a certain time limit that I can spend on Heroes, and I don't want to spend it on 1 game in 3 sessions. I'd rather play 3 games in 1 session. If I sign up for a tournament, and another one opens, I'll have to skip it. I think I'm not the only one. LeBron
The whole point is that the level of play hasn't changed; the game itself has changed. And the question now is who wants to play this game, and who doesn't. I, for example, have absolutely no desire. This is essentially what the topic is about: to find out what everyone wants, and to persuade the undecided to join our side.
Exactly.
Regarding a blitz tournament with 4-minute games. There are already plans for this, and there is already an organizer. But everything has its time. If you want to help with the organization, write to me on ICQ.
