[bigWham]

Seing the fresh logo and nav put a big smile on my face. Noticing Clans an clicking on it made me yell "wow!"

bigWham, you are the man. Conquer Club is in good hands.

we all stand on the shoulders of turtles...

Great updates!!!

[greenoaks]

and what about those dreaming of a Manual medal that did not include results from games that involved no manual deployment.

unclear message - if this is a bug, please take your predicament to the Bugs forum, where they will deal with it accordingly!

He is saying that now that you cannot have a manual game on maps where you only have 1 starting territory all of the previous games of that type should no longer count towards to Manual Medal.

Not sure if that bell can be unrung.

i recall it was back in the day for 2 player assassin games.

[greenoaks]

great updates guys! this is really incredible how fast and reactive the new team is.

Ok, i think I can officially be rewardedas the first member who lost against both bots!
the level 1 bot had 3 bonuses to break on my first turn lol, and the level 2 bot just gave me areally really hard time regarding dice.
nevertheless I agree, no cook is as bad as this, even albiestar would beat them easy. (yeah i know, says the guy who lost vs the 2 bots lol)
waiting for higher ranked bots to kick some ass!

and great update with the clan page too! any way we could end up with kind of a clan score.. actually the f400 scoring in on that page?

For those dreaming of a Clan Scoreboard... just hold on to your horsies!

this is discussed at length in the relevant thread. is it a bug those games still count?

[ooge]

A player can no longer make a random Manual deploy game.I doubt that was the goal of restricting manual deploy games.

[cairnswk]

Love the items, thanks.
WhamBot needs allocation of points, especially if it is so stupid...i could will mills of games with this one.
JK. Appreciate your efforts to provide new functions. Well done.
New front images look smashing...are you going to do some rotation of maps through that?

[macbone]

Shiny!

I do miss the Forum tab in the middle, but I guess I can retrain myself. =)

Is it still against the rules to hold players hostage if they are bots?

[Bruceswar]

ha! made that too; i also credited them with 1s ratings for no reason and have been bigot towards robots. i also revealed territories in fog 1v1. make them suffer guys!!!

[Arama86n]

Keep up the excellent work bigWham!
Nice updates

I hope that teamCC can keep up with all the bugs that are sprouting about though. I've seen the wrong team awarded the win upon game completion and such. I *really* hope such issues can be rectified after the fact, and ofc, that whatever caused them is fixed asap.

[OliverFA]

Now that we have bots I hope we also get Infected Neutrals soon, as it looks to me like probably some programming can be reused and the behaviour for infected neutrals is much more simpler than even a Cook AI.

Still looking forward to play an Oasis game against the Barbaric Hordes of the desert!

[benga]

New Header Design - refreshed logo and main navigation, included Clans in main navigation

The design of CC and it's header don't match at all, are you planning new design for whole CC?

Also please unclick Waiting for games in game finder.

thx

Hmmm, thanks GO. I wasn't aware of this.

Also, just a reminder to all:

If anybody has found a bug, please post it in the bugs forum, as they may get lost posting in announcement, and the development team want to fix bugs ASAP.

Take a glance through the headlines though and be sure to report the bug in the right thread, so that the techies can spend their time fixing stuff rather than merging threads

Also can we move usergroup forums to top?

ALSO THE BOT IS THE BEST THING THAT HAPPENED!!!

PLAYING BOT JUST TO READ CHAT!!

yeah, i'd like to see the bots being much more offensive in their comments!! also if they could reply something each time!
but I think you guys got something there... it's as funny as telling siri silly things!

[denominator]

Some questions regarding the bots:

1) Do games against the bots count towards the total games played showing on each player's profile?

2) Do games against the bots count towards the winning percentage on the player's profile?

3) Do games against the bots count towards the turns taken percentage?

4) Do games against the bots count towards medals?

Etc, etc, etc.

Basically, if the games against the bots don't count towards the basic statistic of each players' score, then games against the bots shouldn't count towards any other statistics kept by the site.

This would be great, but failure to let us know caused my 1 minute speed game to freeze up. I couldn't access it, and lost accordingly.

You would've lost anyway.

Nice touch with the bots.
It would be nice if you can add more(all) maps to the bot games and more bots. Let's say I'm a mosanthrope and I what to play a game with 7 bots. Can you make it happen? pretty please ;;)

I think they just changed it which is good!
I already had the platinum crossmap, but didn t do all 232 maps, i played the bots on a map i hadn t crossmaped the other day, on my medal stat it said i had 205, today it says 204 again, which is good. I know i lost so many points for one extra unique kill on maps sometimes, to give 2 uniques on roughly 70 maps for free certainly cheapened the crossmap medal.

Speaking of which, why don t whambot and sassbot get unique kills and medals? I think the poor robots deserve a little credit there. Would ve been fun to see how long/ how many games it takes them to become standard platinum and all!

Mr. New Admin, have you noticed all the old players that have left the site since you started making these "additions?" I have.

The game you are offering here resembles Risk less and less with each update and that's sad. I chose this site because all the others offering a game like Risk had too much unnecessary crap going on now this is the gimmicky one.

None of your changes you make actually add anything to the gameplay or strategy, all your doing is keeping the ADD generation occupied. You've made this site into the Call of Duty of Risk gaming; more focus on action, less on thinking and tactics.

Wtf are you talking about? If your thing is just 1v1 on classic or whatever, then play only freaking 1v1 on classic. Stop shitting in the soup if 99% of the community enjoys having new stuff that no one is forcing you to play.
If you re just here to complain about the adds then upgrade to premium. Do you work for free?? Well why do you expect others to do so?
So who exactly are the "old players that left because of new additions?" Just curious how many names you can pull out!
