make it bigger?

[willie]

expand the screen size(width and length) and increase the maximum amount of players by 2.  i think the screen for cyber-wars was bigger than this wasnt it?  and then after you do this you can change the the beacon and turret beam-down formation to how it was where if you were by the side you could beam all of them down.

No, and no.

It was never like that.

The screen size is correct Willie.  People tend to prefer that things like that are kept the same, because a lot of the in-game strategy revolves around judging distance between units.

Increasing maximum number of people by 2 would be fairly hectic... an interesting suggestion, but possibly best left as is for now though.

actually, it was smaller. I added one column or row, I don't remember which Probably column

increase the maximum amount of players by 2.

I don't think it is necessary

and then after you do this you can change the the beacon and turret beam-down formation to how it was where if you were on a side you could beam all of them down.

fair and true comment I wanted to do it for long time. It is already partly programmed.

Nooo, don't do it, i like the way it is! You should just move a little if you want all 8!
How would they be arranged then?

Matlu,

Dont make it so that all 8 beacons beam down... it was never like this in the original. Although it could be helpful, it can also ruin one's strategy completely.

As for adding 2 extra players... that would be AWESOME! BUT you would have to add more options to choose from and maybe even more monsters and things such as mind control and teleport.

[SiR gUt]

we have teleport..and i think it would be cool if the game board was bigger and can play a game of 8. Not sure if ti would work out but i still think its cool

[Dodger]

...and things such as mind control and teleport.

eh? we have these... explain

[The_Gu3st]

DUH! I know we have mind control and teleport, but I didnt know how to describe what sort of "things" they are. For example, i didnt know whether to call them defensive moves, skill moves, or whatever.

I just mean we need more things of that sort, instead of monsters.

[TheMcCool]

You guys, turrets were actually like that in the original. If you were on the side, all 8 of them would still beam down. Unfortunately I never took any pics when I played, of the alternate formation... As for beacons, I don't remember if they did that or not.

[The_Gu3st]

They did, but this was not ALWAYS the case.

[TheMcCool]

Well I preferred it that way Also I think making the screen bigger and having max 8 wouldn't be a bad idea. Alot of work for minimal gain, maybe... But it's not as if Cyber Wars was ever a finely balanced strategy game. I don't think it would ruin anything.

More things such as teleport and mind control =  electropulse and virus 

[SiR gUt]

Agreed with mccool

[The_Gu3st]

Yeah, that's pretty much what I said except MC phrased it a lot better.

[TheMcCool]

Well I thought of it way before you did, I just didn't feel like posting. Stop trying to take credit for everything
