Is Call of War a niche game?

Yes, I guess you could look at it that way.

Though to be fair, it’s played by millions and millions more have gotten those ads and sponsorships for sure. Then again you don’t see it mentioned all too often on social media and there aren’t any major, say COW gamers. There is BM fox but his channel in only in the tens of thousands. Still niche but definitely well known I’d say.

Time is this games biggest strength and weakness. I could see a say, 144x version that’s made for fast players being made in the future, and becoming huge, maybe even overtaking the original game speeds.

The problem is the majority of modern gamers don't have the patience that CoW requires. I've seen some suggestions on this Forum for games that can be completed in, say, 60 minutes. Which I definitely don't see happening anytime soon.

I know.

144x would be a little bit too fast I guess.

I think 12x or 15x is fast enough for smaller maps.

It can go higher if you are in the NSO.

144x existed before

But it would be fun one day!

Only for Bytro staff

*back*

They never had it. Bytro staff just played it in the office once for fun.

even as an event

Yes.

It wouldn't work. CoW is too complex of a game to have it that fast - I've seen BMFox do 144x speed games - he has a very good PC and yet he still has to refresh the game every 10 minutes and it is extremely laggy. Trust me, it would not be popular because of this. CoW just isn't designed for it!

They did say that once the technology is ready they would consider it… sorry to bother you so much, @freezy, but is there a possibility in a few years or so?
