Lower win condition from 95% to (maybe) 70 %

[fast grotto]

A just had a game I won, spent most than half of it conquering the world while victory was secured

[iron trout]

yep it's 80% of non-fallout land to win in next update

😭rip the 1 pixel city stack meta

[fluid moss]

80 is kinda low

90% should be better I think

[wet elm]

usually i already know that im gonna win when im at 80% so its fine

[fast grotto]

80 % is already very high... like who's gonna win when someone has 80 % already ?

maybe it should be 55 % for about 3mn or sth and 70% = instant win

[wet elm]

55% isnt a guaranteed win

80 is fine

[fast grotto]

80 is waay too high.
most than half the game is spent grinding for the end in a non decisive way
look at that

shit the screenshot is missing the numbers but the winner has 70%, win garanteed

[wet elm]

if you have lets say 70% its easy to get more

just save up a bit (should take less than 1 min prob) and then just attack or bomb the others

[fast grotto]

it's not the question of whether it's easy or not

or actually if it's easy it's irrelevant

[wet elm]

well, by that logic you could let people claim victory immediately when spawning in easy mode, since easy mode is considered easy (= you basically already won by playing it (?))

[simple stirrup]

if you got money for multiple h bombs as the smaller player u might be able to beat a guy at 80%

[fast grotto]

there's an easy mode ?

[fast grotto]

in practice never happens I think...

[simple stirrup]

yeah probably

tho ig maybe if the #1 guy just killed the third place guy then maybe

and u were just watching them fight and saving up

[azure gazelle]

have you never money-maxxed, territory isn't everything if we're going to be dropping % required to win we should recaculate it and attribute land a certain value, buildings, and troops and get essentially a "gdp" and use that as a % of global gdp to determine win-con, but also actual solution would just be using peace emoji calls a vote for all alive players and game ends with anyone on top the winner

[fast grotto]

yes territory value could be taken into account but in practice I doubt we need to make it that complicated

Anyway the new update lowered the win threshold to 80% or something which is better already and for some reasons maybe, games are shorter it seems

[azure gazelle]

yea it's cause now antartica doesn't have to be conquered literally took half the game

[fast grotto]

lol what ? strange. Antartica land has the same population value no ?
