Would be a good idea. Two versions: one for Gen V2 and the other for V1 Boomers.

That is so beautiful

I like the idea of the new economic possibilities with all the new items. 

Descriptions on lots of the new options are pathetic, making things so much more confusing than they need to be.

Can't stand the new battle system.  I can't even imagine how slow and buggy this thing is going to be considering they can't reliably figure out how to add 2 sets of numbers and compare them now.  I can understand some people loving the new system but it isn't for me.

But the thing that will drive me away from the game is all the gold boosts making it so you either need to be super rich already or ready to pay lots of real life money to keep your health and happiness up and be able to fight well on the battlefield.

I just wish it was possible to maintain wellness without buying penguin bowling health kits every day. This shit is ridiculous. The free 70 health they give to players who fought negates your food/house wellness too, but still eats durability. It seems like the smartest course of action is to just live at 70 wellness and never buy food/shelter.

Assuming that's a permanent thing. I'm guessing that right after a major battle with 90% of the active players at 5 health they'll revoke it.

If they make the V2 war module cheaper, then it might reach commercial viability. Right now, they're pricing most of their current players out of the market. Wellness is too damn expensive to maintain too.

Having fought in the beta Indo vs. Australia battle recently, during a time when it was relatively busy, my opinion of the war module is worse.  I would get server time-outs fairly often.  And then it wouldn't show me my fights, I'd either remain on the board or not, and my wellness would drop after a round that it had indicated a fight was going to occur.  But I think the worst thing is something that isn't even a bug, but an intended part of the system.  If more than one player selects the same defender to attack, the game just decides which one gets to fight first.  I don't know if it chooses the strongest first or what.  This is not much of a problem in lightly populated battles, but in any battle where you've got multiple attackers and enemies in an area, chances are really high that you are doubling up.  If you don't get to fight, you get 2 skill points, 2 rank points and -10 wellness.  All that waiting leads to nothing.  No damage dealt, no sense of accomplishment.  Then, when you are defending, most of the time you either don't get attacked, or get attacked by someone you have no chance of beating.   Seriously, everybody is a pussy.  I learned to choose to fight those soldiers closest to me in a crowded battle: The weak ones are set upon by players looking for a cheap victory and you'll almost never get to actually fight.  Then if you actually fight a defensive battle its against some insanely overpowered dickhead. /rant

The lack of infrastructure (especially hospitals) is making the V2 experience fairly flawed at the moment.  It's going to take a few months before V2 is really up to full speed, it's going to be heavily saturated in certain areas and barren in others until the companies are created and become successful enough to fill gaps.

I think it could be alright.  I think in huge battles most people will be knocked out fairly quickly, or just deploy to the capital center and close the browser.  The lack of mobility does suck, but it wasn't the best running site form a phone anyways.
