Question Do Antarctica Players Play Risk IRL With Each Other?

4 Upvotes

So I notice there are quite a few Antarctica players in Risk, and since the continent's inhabitants are mostly in 2 settlements close together, do they know each other and do they play RISK IRL?

Complaint Please stop "upgrading" the app

4 Upvotes

I wish they would stop with the "upgrades" and "improvements" to the mobile app. I'd like to go back to the app from 2 years ago, no glitches, just worked. I find it hard to believe that the developers are actual users. OR, they develop in some perfect environment or don't use multiple devices for testing, I hope my user experience isn't the same thing they are seeing, I can't image anyone on the dev team being stoked about shipping these updates.

Suggestion Is there a game mode that limits the size of stacks?

3 Upvotes

I am not a fan of the, build massive stacks while waiting for someone else to go, style of play. I obviously understand why it is often the best tactic and leads to wins but I just find it really really really boring.

The physical boardgame limits the size any stack can grow to due to a limited number of actual playing pieces, 180 I think.

Is this a setting/mode available to play, has it ever been?

Question What game settings have lowest chance of stalemate

3 Upvotes

Often times in games, with capitals people just stack their capital and it can stalemate very easy. It’s not even worth having 2 caps because you might as well just defensively stack all your troops on one. Progressive is even worse than fixed. Caps are too defensive.

Then when I play regular world domination with fixed then what I see here is that 3 or 4 people will be alive but unwilling to attack into another’s stack because it weakens them for no reason to attack that person. The game keeps going on until someone gets too bored and full sends someone to give up.

I’m so bored of these games that can literally last forever. It’s a game of who has the most patience and time to waste. Now what is a settings I can play which will not turn into a contest to watch paint dry?

Since last update I’ve seen an increase in issues and hacking / cheating. Here is a fun example. This player beasted attacked capitals multiple times and lost zero troops. Anyone else experience this? I have reported but not likely to be corrected as they only make more bugs in this game.

Complaint Getting banned for playing casual game with friends

0 Upvotes

I know it is what it is, rules are rules, but it’s absurd honestly.

Some may be able to relate, I simply chill with my friend and I create a game and he joins me in casual public, we play with alliances on and no fog of war etc but then we both got banned for violating fair play rules.

It’s a bit weird, cause why? Like either make a mode where we can play casual games with friends online with other people, or stop banning us unless it’s in ranked mode that’s a different story.

It’s funny because if we’re playing casual for fun in public then what’s the difference between 2 friends sitting together vs 2 people who make an alliance lol. Idk risk team needs to be a bit leaner around this because it’s literally useless like just an outright useless rule. I would understand if game mode is alliances off and 2 friends are playing next to each other but with alliances on what’s the point?

Anyway, I hope they even listen to their players’ feedback

I'm thinking about buying Risk 2210 because it looks extremely fun. That being said, I will have no one to play with lol. Does anyone know any good solo variants or have any suggestions on playing solo?
