    I keep seeing everyone talk about auto click .. and that the ring of fire cant be busted .. my internet connection is not the greatest it is stable but I'm only on a 10 meg connection .sys tem soon to be upgraded to fiber and 100 meg connection lol cant wait . the attacker has the ability to leave battle once any unit has been deployed. The defender if he enters a battle cant leave ..they are stuck in battle if they chose to defend .. the key is the defenders and others that may surround a toon but once you have become the attacker the advantage is all yours because you can leave battle and you can already have the next toon targeted because you can pull up the drop box .. and ready to attack .. thus giving the "initial" attacker at least a 2-3 second head start on starting the next battle ..so the ability to leave and pull up the drop box is the  advantage  . once i have become the attacker i can pretty much keep attacking anything that gets close to my toon because i can leave battle and get the "drop box" with  attack button up and ready .. .. so ring of fire is a very easy fix if your  an attacker kix can make it so you cant pull up the drop box on the next toon  just like if someone is attacking you cant pull up the drop box till the battle is over....then and only then will you have a real 50/50 chance on then next attack .. then it will be all about ping , internet net speed and mouse skill`s .. as far as 69 is concerned not sure there is a good way to fix that way to many variables... is it an alt acct ? is it a real attack ?  ..i have popped during a sector invasion not caring about infamy several times in just a short time defending sector ..but yet not gaining any infamy .. just toon fighting .. that's one thing but popping gaining infamy several times in an hour  or so ?maybe there is a time frame kix could establish ?  gaining infamy and not losing infamy + being bubbled in same time frame ? 
     dont be surprised 100meg not that great, but better then 10,

    i am truly amazed that kixeye neither know or understand what 69 is, its nothing to do with ring of fire, ring of fire is so easy to break its laughable at best, 69 is when enemy takes a hit putting himself in dome the second he has started an attack on your base, this is 69 kixeye, your efforts to stop ring of fire have now pushed 69 upon us even more, you are in essence pushing players away from the game with these silly moves you keep doing, the game was balanced, and then you bring out darkstorm, barely able to defend against it, so people 69, why? to protect their ego and infamy, yes infamy the very thing you pushed upon us, so for every mistake you make kixeye there is a counter action formed by players, seen as you like counter play so much!!! now, as you listen to forum cry babies and not the gold spenders, maybe we should start crying on forums about all the issues with the game, will you then set about fixing those? i very much doubt it

    there go's the game. i see kixeyes is messing up . with the NEW HACK that is "permanent" 69(ring of fire hack) how in the world does this apply to (" that "platoons lose two (2) consecutive battles will retreat back to base") when it is a "permanent" attack?????i see you went ahead and "gave the "hackers "" the go ahead and cheat, while the rest of the NON hackers are getting bubbled.. i know you went backwards on this.. good bye coiners and hello cheater game.

    "ring of fire is certainly a pain in the arse and this will no doubt help, but all it will probably result in is players taking a friendly 1 star while attacking. This is as common as using the method you are countering. 
    I do not think this proposed solution will fix all exploitive behaviour, no. The idea is to curtail and mitigate in the short term (which I believe this will do) while we work out a longer term solution.

    Regards,
    Goldendoodle
    Ring of fire is a separate as kixeye has deemed it as a exploit... that being said the other issue is "69" Definition of this is when 2 players give each other a bubble 1 star 2 star 3 star . now that we all understand this. lets move on to solutions.

    Kixeye's current Solution to their Ideal of 69 ..AKA ring of fire. is to add more to the game. np I appluad the change
     lets move on to the real 69 which is friendly bubbles. :
    Some might not like my opinion and thats ok  . just a opinion

    1st solution
    Do away with bubbles completely.. you want more PVP @ kixeye then do this and lower repair cost/times/gold... btw will never happen My opinion again

    2nd Solution
    Provide revenge attacks for those attacked. this would discourage the friendly bubbles.
    lets provide a little more  of this idea : once a player is attacked he / she has 24 hours to retalliate. 1 attack only . the original attacker's base platoon needs to be repaired so to be fair their protection bubble only last as long as the repair is needed. thereby making it fair even if they are offline.


    so lets say Player A is attacked by Player B Player A has 24 hours to retaliate . Player B has say 2 hours repair on his base platoon before he /she can be attacked by Player A . thereby making it a so called fair  fight LOL nothing fair in real war where there are no protection bubbles and enemy's don't care if you equipment or troops are healed and ready .
     
    So thats my idea : hate me like don't care just stop the crying on the forums about changes. you know youre addicted so just play :) happy hunting all

    so................ kixeyes made a "new rule" that for years the ring of fire was used as a tactic to slow down enemy toons hitting your base. then now it is a  exploit? because "cheaters" use it in a macro hack to :

    A. beat the other guy to the punch not to hit toon .
    B. use a permanent time on the ring of fire hack so they do not worry on others to use or use the alt. accounts they have.

    this sounds like an exploit from kixeyes advantage to use fair players that do not use the hack to spend more coin because the cheaters WILL use it and we as "fair players" will and are getting screwed to spend more coins in pvp/invasion events. i see it as an exploit kixeyes is using

    69 problem is actually more serious than the ring of fire problem....need a time frame when that is going to be fixed.

    Ring of fire you at least have a chance to break in and kill, now every idiot just selfies after 1 hit. Thanks for this update moron farmers. Maybe you should get some fighters on your kixeye team and not farmers. You may understand what coiners are looking for in this game and not a bunch of wankers that never spend a dollar or leave sector are complaining about. This new update is one of the dumbest yet...

    It's not that easy for the kixeye employees to know the exact meaning of every term in the game. In addition to that, there was a lot of forum discussions about the "Ring of Fire" where the original poster did refer it as 69ing which probably increased the confusion between the terms even further.

    To be clear, this discussion is about how kixeye planned to eliminate the issue of players protecting there base from being attacked with attacking platoons.

    Kixeye, please make it away that damage protection can be 4 hours. This will increase the chance that we can GET our REVENGE on players who have been getting a buddy bubble. We wouldn't have to wait for months to hit that player back.

    remember, just a couple days ago, when they did not put back the 36 hour bubble after warpath? it stayed at 4 hour bubble for several hour ... and many people flipped their wigs over it??

    good luck with a full time 4hr bubble suggestion

    ring of fire....69....well i hope kix will stop letting people jail other players and i would also like to see a morale for bases, if i attack someone and i see the base is too hard for me then I want to attack the base twice without success and then on my third attack i want the base to be damaged 50% already.....yeah yeah I am being sarcastic. PVP has become a joke - but please don't blame the players, its kix fault with repair times, short jump times etc. its all about gold for the last year...gold gold gold

    I do agree that it would at least solve the self bubbling issue in some way but I would prefer to see the regular damage protection duration to be slightly longer like 8-12 hours to make the protection last at least 1 night to let our base guard repair fully.

    Perma 4 hours bubbles would suck, some of us work, and sleep, I dont want to have to check my game all the time, simple solution is any platoon sitting idle on the world map for over a permitted time, say 5 mins, then auto returns home, that will clear the maps and make it harder not impossible for things, as for time similar to Axel said change the times to 1 star 4 hours, 2 star 8 hours and 3 star 12 hours.

    this ring of fire (without the hack) kixeye took away from all of us good fair players because of a few cheaters using a macro hack. kixeyes is "exploiting" this to "their" advantage for all of us to "coin". it is like kixeyes said we can build a castle and we can not build a moat around it to defend. this ring of fire from day one was being used sense the map was created by kixeyes. so this is the reason why kixeyes i will not support your game nor coin any more.. you lost a paying customer.  this is why i posted this , seems like people hates the ring of fire because of the "free jumps"  and the "hit and run then friendly "bubble" tactic, "69". kixeyes is using this (as some say is an exploit),to "their "advantage". another words, a lot of you people complaining, dug your own hole  and now kixeyes is using it to make money on. that being said the other issue is

    "69" Definition of this is when 2 players give each other a bubble 1 star 2 star 3 star . now that we all understand this. lets move on.

     you really think using the ring of fire means "someone is using a "cheat auto clicker" LOL and before you say it, i played this game 5+ years and got good performance in this game and i can "break the ring of fire easy" i hate cheaters that use the auto clicker(macro) and they are the big losers. kixeyes can NOT "fix" a micro auto clicker because it runs a program "on" your computer. not incorporated in flash or a bot..how i know this! because i use to work for MSN dev. team to combat the cheats in their chat program..and now retired from them..

     69 is a tactic that is used as a strategy to not let people bubble your base, you don't like it, tough luck, it is NOT a exploit or cheat. you can complaint all you want , but it is still legal to do.

    you do **** against hackers who have/use unlimited toons attacking 24/7 and you complain about 69!!


    ban me :)


    put my base in a crater and Ill gladly walk away


    ps you'd best change your terms and conditions as 69 is not a exploit its a tactic

    ring of fire is not a cheat or exploit its a tactic,unless you use auto clickers or some other outside problem to carry out that function, get a fukking grip, ban the hackers and maybe we would all then be happy to fight given a level playing field

    hello all 
    i got an idea to stop players from 69ing or self bubbling .
    so the idea is if you got attacked and the attacker got over 50% .. 1 star 
    you will choose to get a bubble or keep not bubbled 
    but if you choose to get bubble you wont be able to hit any PvP base for 30 min - 1 hour

    Or they could make things simple like when we try to put a 6th platoon around our base,we can't because the 6th tile is an illegal tile.

    ring of fire can be broken .. but self bubbling not .. after every attack people use their alts to give their self 1 star

    I the 69 thing, has killed the game, when you cant get in to attack your opponent, the game is dead. The  developers and planners dont even play the game, so they dont even know whats going on. Its sad, but this game is going downhill, its time to move on and find another game.  As a vetran player since 2013, its not fun anymore, you cant event hit people becaus their base is being held all the time.  Im pretty sure the players and coiners arent being listened too, so therefore its time to move on.  Keep helping hackers and farmers, and ignore coiners.
