Ranking

No matter what, under the current scheme the top players will set into boredom once they get amfds etc, and this is what drove many people away. A way to counter that is reinstate tourney, or maybe new areas in which players can battle each other - eg. having different criteria for entering a squad for different arenas other than BM (bot types, no. of bots in squad, weapon bm limit), and of course change basing :p

Something else which should change ranks is having a score for other areas of cybots which affects your rank score (so it's not based purely on exp which is boring) although only slightly ofc. If some 'drastic' changes are made then this would level the playing field I think.

There needs to be more equipment types added (new tech could also give excuse for introducing a new outlands area) instead of just changing BMs around, because the stuff we have now has been done to death - bases should be much harder to kill, instead of each and every setup being HS'able. Basically we need an element that will allow lower level bots to be somewhat effective at basing as well as the higher level ones (perhaps patrol/basing/tourney/arena-only equipment?) so that people can keep bases up without being on 24/7.

Some people are missing out because they feel it would take too long to get blue, or w/e. An old Hall of Fame list could be kept for the top vets/clans, and then reset everyone's vet points, make everyone equal again.

And if changes ever get implemented, would be a good idea to send a newsletter to every email ever used to sign up for cybots :)

Not really specific there ^, just for others to chew on.
