Game Statistics

[joeaggie98]

I like this.

[TeeGee]

Generally I like the addition.... although I noticed that in Fog games it still displays the total region count for each player. I wonder if that can be changed somehow. Otherwise happy.

people who use BoB (like myself) have had access to this information for a long time.. it evens it out for all.

I could have used this update 2 days ago as I have been away and didnt have access to firefox and BoB.. Nice work Lack

I'm afraid I have to disagree, I don't like it! This information was already out there, but previously you had to be bothered to work it out to use it to your advantage, which for me was part of the game! I saw it as my advantage that I always kept track of it by using the game log whereas others clearly didn't. Now that's been taken away and it's all alot more visual! But that's just my opinion.

THIS MADE ME SO HAPPY

I almost never go on the forum, but thanks CC. No more days of figuring the opponents' bonuses.

So no disable button. Thats a shame. I prefer to use bob. I dont like change
Its really in the way and annoying me

[GenuineEarlGrey]

These stats do not slow the game down. I don't see any good reason to disable them.

Lack,

Could you please tell me how they possibly can't slow the game down? Every roll now has to update the BOB info on the screen.

Whether they slow the game down noticably or not is another matter. As I've already said, to your supprot, early Monday morning is not the best time to judge the server I use.

to be honest i'm willing to quit cc just because of this shit update no joke thats how bad it is

Hahaha

I think it is really great however, I would suggest putting the "Action" bar below the stats, for those of us who are playing on bigger maps with smaller screens it is a pain to scroll up and down, it would be better and easier if we had the "action" bar below the stats.

Note: Just so we are all talking about the same thing, the action bar/display is where you your deployment, assaults and reinforcements are chosen.

Tell me what you think.

[equalpants]

I think the spoils column should be the leftmost. It's the most important one, especially in escalating games, so it should be the one that's least likely to require scrolling to see. The others you can get a sense of by looking at the board; spoils are the only information that you *need* to see on the side.

This is a great update for leveling the playing field, so I'm thrilled to finally see it.

There is a large number of people in this thread screaming "Now I can't can an advantage by counting territories and calculating troops due!" Those who feel that way should be very thankful for this update, because the same stats have been available for almost 4 years through grease monkey scripts. Now, instead of doing a bunch of work to only be at a slight disadvantage you are on a level field with everyone who uses BOB, and it requires no work.

CC should strive to take away any advantages that user scripts can give (to make the site more friendly for the casual player and new recruit) and this update is an enormous stretch in the right direction. Now all we need are site-wide clickable maps, and things will be MUCH more fair and user friendly

Someone else already mentioned it, but that flashing NaNaNa clock is killing me!

I really think that there should be a way to disable it. What harm could possibly come from it? The only people who'd probably disable it was the people using BOB... I hate the updat, if people want that info, they should have to get BOB.

I agree about disabling it, but others can use it. Just take it off my screen please! I do not want this info. Which is why I disabled bob ages ago. This just takes of wasted space for me.

Agreed here too. The update is great for people who want/need it but I really do NOT want it - it is extremely annoying. If it could be turned on/off that would be perfect!

[sully800]

I'm just curious about how this feature is taking up space for you? It's on the far right of the screen, and does not push anything else important off the screen and does not move the position of anything else in the game. I understand if you don't want or use the stats, but it seems like the current display system is good because it doesn't prevent you from seeing anything else.

If the stats were below the map and above the game chat (like BOB) then it would push the game chat down. But how does being off the right side of the screen adversely affect you if you don't care about the stats.

Not everyone uses Firefox, and even some that do cannot install software scripts like Grease Monkey. But the biggest argument against your statement is many new recruits don't even know BOB exists and they are at a disadvantage for quite some time. The game should be fully functioning from the website itself, any additional downloads should give the user no advantage because then you have an uneven playing field.
