Creates way more problems than it solves, the game doesn’t need even more snowbally combat

@IndexLibrorum said: Ideas such as these are best worked out as a mod. It is exceedingly unlikely any such changes will be made to the default game. I suspect I don't have much time left before FAF ends up on the "undesirables list"; the EA and Ubisoft launchers were recently "isolated." So I'll slowly lay out all my thoughts. If you like anything, I'll be happy.

There was little confidence that the balance team would agree to the integration in its original form. Perhaps some enthusiasts will like it, with the subsequent creation of a separate mod partially implementing the idea.

As stated above, this will only speed up the transition to T3 because it is always more profitable to equip a mass extractor with storage facilities, even if, in your case, this will cost additional energy. This doesn't solve the problem of quickly transitioning to T3; in fact, it exacerbates it, because more mass means a faster transition to the really killer things and ignoring those units that quickly lose relevance. If you want to make the transition longer and make T1-T2 units last longer, you can create a mod to increase the transition time to T2 and T3, respectively. Besides, I play a modpack that implements this; it has a really long ramp-up to T3 and truly huge armies of T1 and T2 units. You can check out my thread.

@IndexLibrorum said: What's next, having your tanks auto-move to the closest enemies without having to give orders, so as 'not to have the hassle'? yeah! And let the nuclear missile automatically target any player who doesn't have anti-nukes! Otherwise, scouting enemies is difficult!

Okay, I realized this isn't what I need. At least, it's not suitable for the main part of the sessions.

This has already been discussed in the past, see here for the arguments everyone gave back then, pretty sure that's still the general consensus.

@IndexLibrorum said in App text adjustment (lobby text size, general chat, etc.): Your font is strange too. Why is it in what looks lime Times New Roman? It's some sans serif for me. I think it has to do with changing a registry file, but I'm not certain. None of my other games have this issue, and I don't know what Windows settings FAF relies on.

@Nomander said in Global Foe Mute, and Forced Mute instead of Ban: Also personally I don't really like the idea of global mutes given out by mods, I prefer some reputation system that shamefully marks people and lets individuals decide if they want to mute them or ban them from their lobbies That's nice, but the modteam does see a lot of utility in having such a function. As do many players, based on the upvotes on the primary post in this thread and how often this feature has been requested of or suggested to us in the past. Toxicity and verbal abuse is something we deal with on a daily basis, and it's the reason for a significant chunk of the bans we hand out every week. Being able to globally mute players would allow us to be more precise with our penalties, without affecting the rest of the player base by removing otherwise active players. If players are otherwise toxic, such as by reclaiming allied units, we can still deal with them by revoking their access to the game, but it would be very valuable to us to have an additional tool in our arsenal (similar to the warning system that was recently added, and now we can finally hand out warnings without having to immediately resort to bans).

Separately, I would like to mention the difficulties of the players from Russia. Cloudflare, which the FAF actively uses, was blocked in Russia. If we make detailed instructions with other players from Russia to solve this problem. Will the faf administration be able to post it for all newbies from Russia and for those who haven't visited for a long time? For example, on the authorization page?

I would like to return to this post again. We have a very cool 4x4 map pool this month! But the problem is that it's almost impossible to find a 4x4 game. At the same time, we have 3x3, where there is not a single user At the same time, we have 3x3, where there is not a single user map or a 20x20 map.

Have fun coding then.

@Brutus5000 Switch relay server to https://www.ovhcloud.com/en/security/game-ddos-protection/ or something like that which should be more ddos-proof. As for worse connection through relay server check if the relay is properly handling PMTUD and check for buffer bloat and try to fix that.

It's clear who's your favorite lol
