The Beta 12 Domains deploys initial troops in 6 domains each instead of just 4 domains. It changes the whole dynamic of the game in a bad way. It completely ruins the game as the deploy builds too quickly and the game now is more about luck than strategy.

yes....i also agree. this is for 1v1 and 2v2 (i think)...i prefer the original initial deploy in flash....definitely need some neutral towers/domains....the game play is different.

Sheriff shared that the old game engine has been disabled while they cutover to the new engine in this thread and will redirect to beta: https://www.majorcommand.com/forums/threads/10134-UPDATE-Jan-02-2021

Today we stopped the engine that controls the old flash games, and created a backup of the database at that very moment, essentially freezing all flash games in time.... The hope is to revive them at some point in the future. This includes the Tournament games too.

What exactly is the difference?

I mean, are we talking about 2 player games? Or 4 player games? Or how many? And what happened in the original that is not happening in the Beta?

oh yes...it's only for 1v1 games on 12D (not 2v2)...

ok...for 2 player (1v1) 12D....the flash site had 4 neutral towers and each person owned 4 towers each.

in the beta version....there are no neutral towers, so each player owns 6 towers each....changes up the game play significantly.

Okay thanks. I've made a note and we'll look in to making it the same as the Flash game. Thanks.
