Topic: Kongregate Multiplayer Games / [Monstermind] Bug Reports

I’m on Chrome and a few times the tutorial doesn’t recognize that I’ve completed something.

Why is it so hard to get money?

Topic: Kongregate / Not allowing other game sites?

Kongregate is the “Youtube of Gaming”. To follow with that, should YouTube delete every 5 second video of 10 year old boys saying “boobs” and then giggling?

No, I’m saying that (keeping with the metaphor) YouTube wouldn’t want a bunch of 5 second videos of 10 year old boys saying “boobs” and then giggling italics that are also hosted on some other site italics on YouTube.

That’s what is happening. Other Kongregate-esque (only way less visitors/quality) sites are posting games hosted on their site to Kong. Not individual people making and posting low-quality games (those I’m fine with, if I started to make games, I want to know there was some place to post them regardless of how much they suck).

Topic: Kongregate / Not allowing other game sites?

Can we ban all these other game sites that just repost all of these “games” that get 12 plays and never enough votes to get a rating? They take up bandwith and offer nothing to this site but clutter. It seems like this would be in Kongs best interest. Especially since a lot of these uploaders sneak in non-Kong ads.

Topic: Technical Support / "Delete Post" showing up on game news

I click every one I see.

Topic: Kongregate / Friends Terminology Update

How about, instead of following/followers, we go with “Cool People” and “People who think you are Cool”.

I don’t follow anybody, and I’m sure no one follows my loser ass (despite having some ‘followers’).

Or, it could be expanded into varying levels. Like “People who accidently clicked ‘add’ and are too lazy to delete it”, “People who add everyone”, “A few shouts betwixt”, “Chatees”, “42 year-old men you think are 22 year-old women”, “People who would pick you up from the airport if they didn’t live in another country”.

Also, if you click manage followers, it still has the friends/fans.

So are we going to change the name to Kongbook or Faceregate?

Topic: Kongregate Multiplayer Games / [Immortal Empire]Music

Why do I have to download the music if I’m not going to be playing it?

Topic: King's Bounty: Legions / This Game is not made with users in mind

^Unity uses more CPU than GPU while “real” (although I don’t think Diablo 2 and SC2 are hugely taxing) games use more GPU than CPU. Most people either; don’t have good enough case cooling or don’t have a good enough CPU fan.

Topic: King's Bounty: Legions / HEY WTF ROBBED

^The devs and kongs can look up who bought what.

Topic: The Godfather / Mobile Version

^If that’s true, how are they able to conduct microtransactions?

Topic: The Godfather / so sick of these "games"

My only problem is that a month after the game is released on Kong, it pops up on the front page under hot new games.

Topic: War of the Web / Best Builds

I don’t see why two spy hubs are needed. Could you enlighten me?
Also, after buying 99 queen calls, is there a reason to have an armory? Can you ever lose them (especially since you don’t have an armory to attack and get weapons stolen)?

Topic: War of the Web / Rate The Person Above You's Base (RTPAYB)

I’ve been rearranging, and once I have some money, the city in the middle will be a launch pad. The spy hub is just a little more protection, but I am thinking about switching it

Also, you have terrible build designs. A balanced build would have a launch site. Said launch site would be in the center, where it gets 100% protection.

Exactly, if you’re not attacking every turn, and checking back periodically, you don’t need 2 barracks. A launch pad can be more useful than mass attacking.

The spy build is only good if you have a lot of people to contact to tell them about good sites.

The defender build is okay, but I would drop a barrack and add an HQ or spy hub. 6 barracks at lvl 9 is 162 soldiers with 99 lvl 9 weapons and only able to attack 18 at a time and trying to find a good target.

Attacker build has less barracks than balanced? Send out 18 soldiers to attack a few targets and then get nuked by retaliation? Drop 3 cities, build 2 more barracks and a spy hub.

If you know someone who has a spy build and can contact them, then having spy hubs is not as important.

^Do you have alts on other sites, because there are people with the name bpayne on Jiggs and Armor.

Not well planned, too many barracks at low levels considering that at max levels you won’t have enough weapon space for them, and since militias are unlimited, a huge attacking force isn’t always amazing. Also, no spy hub? If nothing else it can help protect you from noobs.

…or dala is an alt you made in the hopes of seizing power for this “kouncil” which is probably just you and alts. I like the idea of splitting us up into swarms with each having it’s own leader but I think not having one general leader will probably be best.

So splinter cells?

78/100

Not fully upgraded, no strongholds, a few too many cities.
If it’s meant as a coinfarm, then it’s not bad.

Topic: War of the Web / War of the Web KonGuide

Is the Spy Hub worth it?

Topic: War of the Web / Badges

Community games shouldn’t get badges. Games such as this are about one goal achieved by many completing their decided upon tasks. When badges are introduced, we would get a lot of people playing for those badges, and thus create a glut of people for our enemies to attack without increasing our efficiency by a similar amount.

I vote for a figurehead.

90/100.
Well defended and upgraded, but unless you vendetta all the time, you aren’t helping us get to Mars.

Topic: War of the Web / What planet we are going to conquest?

How about one where people use proper spelling, grammar, and syntax?
