I vote yes. Also, reset could include seeding the galaxy with new systems owned by SP, so might be more planets rather than less after reset. Either way, this game looks pretty hopeless for a newbie like me without a reset. I'm not sure it is worth playing as is.

We could get rid of the nearby planet function again, take us back to the beginning of the game completely, 4 planets each and probing being the only way to find things etc...

Most of you vets go on about the work that you've put into the game and how you don't want to lose everything that you've got and have everything that you've done destroyed, personally I think this comes down to fear, fear of the fact that you may have to be newbies again and that you might not do as well as you have done and may not be as powerful.

I believe that you are fearful of the possibility of a new "power structure" that doesn't feature you as prominantly as the current one. You all talk about the death of Skylords, well what is more likely to cause the death of Skylords? Levelling the playing field and actually giving new players a chance? Or continuing the way we are and having players such as DV destroy every single new player who comes along and builds have a hw?

Just my thoughts, argue and rip them apart if you want, but I'm as entitled to an opinion as all of you, and if you don't like it then hay, do something about it.

fear ? hell no, how would you feel after building a house and then someone comes and says, look at the people without houses, we have to crush all houses to level the field. its not fear, its just all i built up is gone then.

well, honestly - i dont care that much about a reset anymore, i was in top spots several times, put in alot of energy and time, i doubt i will have the same in the future, so i will be one of the first defeated as i have to work, i'm not 14 and have 10+ hours a day for SL.

You destroyed thousands of other people houses and only undestroyable haouses are left. Or very small houses of beginners which you crushing and forgetting in several seconds. So if someone comes to you and says: let's destroy our undestroyable houses and give a chance for everyone?

And I have to work too and have not so much time (sometimes even don't have internet), but now the most you can do is time consuming training, where you don't need to think just work with your mouse and keyboard... Indeed, after formulas were restored, reset won't make long lasting changes...

How many people are?

But what is the point of playing this game with all these resources? SkyLords is a WAR game, what is the fun of war without the risk? None of you vets could feasably be defeated can you? NO. So you're taking each others production planets and the hws of the new players, and you complain of no new blood

And Digiat, I'm also letting go of things, nearly 1m uranium and a 17m hw.

filas - i built up a house too, and my house was crushed too (terror), i didnt give up, i didnt cry.

as i said, do what you want, make a reset ever damn month, like alot of other web based games which i dont like because of the reset. i'm gonna use my time for something else....

D.M. this wont make players leave it would bring more here. Why do you think that SL is doing bad with new blood? because they know they have no chance of living. Now if we had a reset dont you think new people would think they had more of a chance? i do...

They don't know anything Every active player has a chance to survive in current conditions. Look at my clan - no one of those players were defeated.
Reset doesn't mean new players has more chance to survive (maybe first month it's true), but very fast those who are smart enough (and a bit lucky) will be on top.
I voted yes just because at the time the challengin in SL requires too much mechanical work with training ships. And reset can change it for at least couple of months.

No that is absolutely not true... not every active player has a chance to survive... how long does it take to build up a safe HW? 1 month at the least. Do you think with how many max exp assaults there that anyone could survive? ill tell you the answer NO

Well assuming that you are using x9 planets...

You can produce 120 troops every 15 minutes (assuminpcg you do not have a large stockpile of vital to make troops with) on each planet so:

120x25= 3,000 every 15 minutes

3000x4= 12,000 every hour

12000x24=288,000 every day

288000x30=8,640,000

8,640,000x1.9=16,416,000 would be the defence of your hw after one month, assuming that you don't lose any planets and not including the troop cost of taking these planets.
