Non-Harmful Ops DOES NOT cause Spy DR to increase
Harmful Ops causes Spy DR to increase

Both Non-Harmful and Harmful Ops is affected by Spy DR(meaning if a country is in Spy DR, it would have lower chance of success)

List of Non-Harmful and Harmful can be found here

Yeah I wasn't advocating going that far with giving the numbers needed to make a successful attack, lol. But something where they can input the values themselves seemed reasonable. The object of the game is to gain networth and land is a part of that up to a certain extent.

The bigger players who have stuck around figured out the calculations, but it isn't really posted anywhere in the game where a new player could easily understand it. The bits of information needed to build your own calculator are scattered through the in-game help pages or in-game hints. How allies factor in isn't explained very well either. Others simply lack the skills to make a calculator of their own (some people don't understand Excel).

It is very discouraging getting attacked daily for your land and not knowing how the game mechanics works to be able to make your own attacks properly. So you often fail, give up, or don't try.

People who are interested in the game will make an effort to find out information from friends/allies/forums the exact way things work, for e.g allies help. You dont need a 3rd party program or Excel spreadsheet. You'll just need a simple Windows Calc. Its not that complicated.

All spy ops are subjected to Spy DR. A target that has been bombed buildings 40 times, you'll definitely get a hard time getting a spy op after that.

I wonder if there are different difficulties(chances of success) in the various ops like in Utopia.

I thought that was a program called Utopia Angel where all you had to do was to copy and paste your main menu page and copy your target's crystal ball page, ta dah! Angel pops out with all values set and ready to hit.

Are the other servers (Primary, Alliance, Team, FFA and Tournanment) gonna show these info on their selling goods page?

1)Time needed for goods to hit the market
2)Time left for goods to remain on the market before returning
3)Time set for goods to stay on the market

All these have been implemented on the Express server, wonder if all these will get implemented on the other servers too.

Short month doesnt affect. I believe Primary is always 60 days. Long

But you're limited to grabbing really small targets with your 50k jets.

At least it beats the current situation where your ally doubles your offence even if you have 500k jets and you send 50k jets.

What worse still is if you're a dict with 130% weapons. Sending 50k jets (50*1.25*1.3)= 81.25k offence power, which your ally would send 81.25k Jets. And it ends up you losing 4k jets and your ally losing 6.5k jets.

Or make it O-Ally only helps when you need them to break with you sending 100% of your jets, So it cant be abused for bottom feeding.

Maybe share your land with your off allies. Like you get 90% and your off allies share the other 10%.

The difference is that the past spy op, if you're looking in your "saved spy ops," switches to an "advisor" type page and won't show GDI expenses if the person has bought the GDI bonus. The original spy page shows alliance costs based on what costs would be without any bonus.

Alliances cost are also changed, if the person has military tech, or military bases or any government that reduces expenses or reduce expenses bonus.

Not helping Vic here, but that doesnt explain it.

He may log out at 1a.m, logged in again at 1p.m (12 hours)
Upon logging in, he may see his food being returned to the market 10.6 hours, which happened roughly 2:20a.m (1a.m + 1.4 hours).

The first news on your page doesnt necessarily tell you how long you were logged out for. Right?

How much is he stealing off you / op?

You can actually find out, by trying to send a missle or GS/BR/AB to everyone that is 1/4 and 4x your range.

We all know who has been stealing our tech anyway. :)

Originally posted by Xinhuan:

I know who is stealing tech. I've lost some myself. Just try to 1 tank AB all the countries (start with Dictators in your range first), looking for a country where it doesn't say GDI disallows you from attacking.
