the poll is a bit simplistic anyway. If you accidentaly lose the %20 bonus on a main attack fleet deep in enemy territory that then gets whipped out you'd be pissed. If you 've got tones of training facilities and it is a new fleet it is no big deal

Not a rant, but you are entitled to your opionion! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

About the "bit simplistic" part, oh yes! Intended to be. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon6.gif

And the quote you presented was not a statement I had ever made, even though you seem to imply it was by not providing its source. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

And yes, it is in within the imagination of most (I would even be more generous than you and say "all") SE4 players know how they feel about it.

The question is have they experienced it? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif If they have, then please participate.

If you haven't you can still participate, no-one is tying your wrists to a piano. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Somehow, I have the impression that something more is going on than is being expressed. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Why can't those of us who have experienced a loss of a +20 experienced fleet participate in a poll and pass it on to Aaron? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif

You may have hit the nail on the head.

If so, it would appear that the suppressed anger is so great that they would even deny people their right to ask for change.

But why is there such a deep rage in the first place? Where did it come from?

Edit: Just a small point. We haven't even got to the point of requesting a change. Maybe the poll will show there wouldn't be much point in doing so. So the rage must be huge! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">No rage or anger here. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif If you think a change is needed go ahead and e-mail MM. I don't think you need permision from anyone here. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon6.gif

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">How about, instead of handing Aaron a uselessly-biased poll, handing him one that DOES reflect the TRUE impact of that aspect of gameplay?

After all, if 90% or more of people don't even MAKE the mistake, handing Aaron a poll that only indicates "80% of respondants were extremely upset by feature X" is grossly (and IMO unforgivably) misleading.

Come up with a fair, unbiased poll, and I'm behind you all the way.

Otherwise ... *shrug*

What I would like to see is a confirmation when you accidently hit upgrade in the construction window and do a global upgrade.
