Its been a while I suppose...
My question is..is bd still as competite as it was in the past?..or has everyone just rolled over and surrendered to whoever has the biggest bank...

BD has been on my mind a bit it seems meh what a drag..

Lol

The most ppl u will get in one world is 1k players



So thats pretty drag

And there are wars but depends which team plays

Population is way down, competition is way down. Now and then you will get some nice competition, but more often than not its a pro team vs a single or a few semi-pro teams and they wrap it up quickly. CE also plays into that because some players aren't playing other worlds while they play CE, but it's still pretty bad regardless.

I've heard rumors that BD will be making some drastic changes in the coming year (i.e. transitioning to mobile and getting rid of the tick system, becoming a RTS), but only time will tell if these things are going to happen or not and if they would even help at this point.

The reason behind the going down of population is no change in a few days.

i give example:
Imagine a kid. When he/she likes a toy, he/she demands for it.
But when he/she has played with it in a few days, the toy is thrown away.

What I want to say is that you need to keep people interested in one way or another. As i see, there is no one in the whole BD to take care of the newbs in the WORLDs except the ADMINs. Only a few reach to the forums and get help from AANC mentors.
A new system should be devised in BD which should aim at one purpose only "Taking Care of New Players". The human nature is that it goes and stays wherever it gets care and attention.
If the new players will be given enough attention then the population will be like past.
Of course it will be.
Just you need to devise a new system EXCEPT FORUMS.
I made a suggestion regarding this in Community suggestions.

It would be fun to see GoTP back again , especially if u prove your metal on Mars2 or Earth 3 which are dominated by single alliances CME and RoFL respectively
competiton has reduced , battle hugs have became common to tackle this prize of rank 2 and 3 are removed but then after serious revolt they were back again but reduced to 750 for 2nd spot & 500 for 3 rd spot
these updates were made on 9th & 21st april respectively incase you dont know

And abeyant hope its not too late before they implement the new update

Idk about mars 2 I find waking up and logging in to that ominous orange planet to be quite annoying...

But earth 3 is the place to be...I wonder who controls africa..

This is going to be fun....now for the tedious process of recruiting.

So u going to Earth 3?

Yes earth 3
