It's not going to stay like this. Twill posted that somewhere.

On every page lately, including this one, I believe.

They had to change Classic

Post by Duel007 »

But seriously, was that the best they could come up with? The new classic is so plain and dull. Has Hasbro really copyrighted Earth?

It's just a temporary change. They didn't want to rush the replacement, so they put this up, while the Foundry will shortly begin work on the real new map.

I thought A5 was China?

Edit: Yes, China is the only territory that borders 6 other territories in Asia, and so does A5. A8 is actually Mongolia, which you can tell my it bordering Japan A11, and Kamchatka A12

Do you think you guys could perhaps throw up a quick decent replacement? As the current one is beyond shit...

I thought you were complaining because they changed... now you're countering another argument by saying CC had no right to be the way it used to be? Ugh.

I think you'll find A5 is supposed to be China. A8 is Mongolia (it connects to A11, japan).

See, even the stupid shapes are in the wrong places, so we can't work out what's what. Like South America - Perus is now the southernmost region, rather than argentina, which is stuck out to the right. Complete crap.

I think the territory locations are copyrighted. ;)

I say I edited my post before you explained the China thing.

I think they just put the regions in the most simplified ordering, in general. That way, it's more like a blank slate for the foundry to work with.

70 percent of the players play the classic map... it is why they come and why they stay... the manner in which this was introduced... heavy handed and abruptly is what typifies the arrogance of big business... yes...conquerclub grew from a business which cared what u though to an arrogant business who could care less. I and many other will abandon this site... there are others around and frankly this place is a joke.

If they could have warned us, they would have. Even Twill doesn't fully know what happened. This was an emergency change.

Then again Twill rarely seems to be able to understand the basics of thinking anyway. Let's not take whatever Twill thinks and apply it to general thought.

No, they really didn't have a right to use the Risk map / dice / card system. It was obvious copyright infringement.

The piece of ass replacement map is pathetic. It sucks! surely they could have come up with something better than that piece of shit.

I wasn't complaining that they changed, but what they changed the "classic" map into, some new age looking piece of shit.

There may be other sites, but conquerclub has the largest variety of settings, and maps. And the maps are, in general, much higher quality than in all of the other sites.

I also recall that 2 months ago there were several threads in the GD that said cc has the best customer service ever... funny how the same people are not putting down its every move, and complaining at every temporary, unavoidable change. I say "unavoidable" because it was not their fault the server crashed, and it was not their fault people were threatening to sure them.

Regardless of what you and a lot of others posting in here may think, this is still in the forums, so you still have to follow the guidelines :)

So Hasbro has copyrights on all of world maps, dice, cards and the terms attack and fortify? Sheesh... That's harsh...

Don't worry, it's just a temporary replacement. They were rushed, and you don't want them rushing the real map. So they threw this thing up, as a functional bridge while the foundry works on something awesome.
