At the main menu where you see both order on the left and chaos on the right, there should be two buttons that allow variety in the game, what they unlock is when you click on them it will show how many players are actually using this so your not left sitting there in the queue waiting for a player that doesn't exist.

It allows multiple choice on what you want in the game. They are explained below.


Starter wall, if you check this at the main menu of the game a single wall starts for BOTH players at the beginning of the online game (a beginning turret starts for chaos players), the walls are set up so they are right infront of the second line of gold, just close enough so the castle archer can take down melee units but just far enough so ranged units can pelt the wall without threat of castle archer.

extra 150 gold and 50 mana, if you check this at the main menu of the game BOTH players start out with 650 gold and 50 mana, this allows more starter units for either a shorter game or a greater start.


BOTH PLAYERS either friend or ranked match must have both checked in order to have these activated in the actual game (lets say me and some guy named bob both have extra 150 gold and 50 mana checked but only I have starter wall checked, we will both have 150 gold and 50 mana but neither of us will have starter wall since only one of us had that checked)

For some reason it won't allow me to neither delete it or make a poll, its like the options are no longer available.

Hmm, more start options. Seems nice.

Maybe have some more like:

Extra Miner
-Start with another Miner

Hustle
-Start with Miner Hustle

Towerless
-No center tower

More Gold
-3rd row of gold (does not work on small maps like Castle, so this option will force a medium or large map)

Unit start
-Start with one swordwrath for Order and 2 crawlers for Chaos

Instant Research
-Research abilities instantly

It's bad enough already getting avoided because players can add your account after a game and wait for you to log. Absolutely no.

Starter wall is dumb because then you're obviously both gonna turtle and that's dumb.

There will be sort of like a sandbox mode coming, and that will meet your different needs. Walls and towers will get changed soon. But for finding out players online at the menu.... no no no and NO.

WyzDM I know you are an absolute long time player (I even started my own rumor stating your not human, only a robot wanting to take over the world of inamorata), but even you should see if this idea goes into effect not much will change, if you don't want the options then don't check the box for those options. Plus those at the front page are just examples, I'm sure if this DOES go into effect (highly doubt it completely) it will not make any people over powered it won't suddenly change to tide of battle for one player. Chances are there will be 3 types of players that will do these. They are the pros who don't check the boxes at all, then there's the fun people who check all the boxes and honestly don't care if they win or not, then there is the power hungry who check the boxes but only for their own good and strategic thoughts on how to win.

I overlooked that last statement 15 times rapidly to see any mistakes were made.
