Attack Result Page

Post by dirtyrat »

I suggest that this page is a game FLAW. Now listen to my logic...
--
1. Thumbs up to person who coded it; very nicely done.
2. But ONLY noobs will read this material.
3. Why? I no longer read this info - even though I wish to.
3a. I attack and win gold.
3b. I look/read long list of results.
3c. Someone else comes by and loots my gold.
3d. Whoa! What happened to my gold.
4. INSTEAD I now attack and look directly at my gold amount. If it shows more gold (= I won) I then quickly go to armory and spend it before anyone loots it.

Solutions;
1. Remove all that data on attack result page - it bogs down the game and no expert will ever read it.
2. Or - Create a new code allow all attackers to click a page allowing them to see their LAST attack. (And so read all that info - and so enjoy the game more so.
3. Or - Allow a safe base of 1/2 min to allow us all to read the info; no one can attack for 30 sec after each & every attack. (I'm sure no one would like this last idea code; lol...)
---
PS: I would LIKE to read and enjoy this info but how can I? Constant worries about being hit is the nature (and fun?) of this game. So if a nnob ever asks me how to play better my answer..? "Don't/stop reading that page because it will only hurt you in the long run. Someone had a great idea but it doesn't work well within this sort of game."
Shower time? NEVER!!

No one reads the attack details, agreed it should be streamlined. 20 years ago the storytelling of a text based game was important, now it has no value.

You don’t have to read it, but you can always go back and read it after you spend you gold. It is an attack log of your attack so it stays.

Yeap, so keep the attack log but don't display all the text on initial attack. Streamlines the loading and helps when raiding

Damn..! (Idiot me never thought to backspace to read all the results.)

But I'll still (50%) agree with Blaze - that info just distracts from playing this game well (and bogs down the game server). However as I said I - as a new player - DO ENJOY reading that material. Why?
1. I'm new and enjoy new interesting things. This sort of detailed info is currently FUN to read. Now maybe months from now I'll ignore it but you do wish to attract/keep new players - yes? AND allow them to play well? No one wishes; "I tried this game out but I don't know what is going on, it tells me nothing, and I keep losing...fu*k it!"
2. It allows me to see how the game is calculating the end result.
3. And I am one of those types of players who enjoys the text more than the numbers. Not to insult anybody here but I am in this game because of all the cool text, colors, mystery, etc. Most of you are in here either because of the community and/or for the win ( = the numbers).
---
So I'll try to remember to backspace. But that appears to me to be a silly requirement for enjoyment of this game. A game flaw if you will. (As I have already stated:P
---
Edit: I tested BUT I had backspace twice. Go to armory, BUY something, remember to backspace twice.

You can Also find the logs without having to backspace

Go to Attack Logs, and click on the part where it says how much gold you stole
