Board Game Arena

It's a flaw in the elo system. In some games, everyone who doesn't win should be considered tied. For example, in King of Tokyo, it's better for your elo to not get KOed early, than playing to win. Example in King of Tokyo: Player A gets KOed wth 18 points. Player B wins and Player C has 7 points a...

You could open a bug report. Nothing in the game manual says that anything but the win is important, so if playing for second warps the game in a way that makes people not play for the win, then perhaps this should be a win-only game(that's possible).

It's true that 4 player would be better. But there doesn't seem to be sufficient active players to make it viable. Currently, searching for a 2P real time arena match can still take substantial time already. If it takes >15mins to find 1 other player, finding 3 other players would become a much big...

I think BGA should be a place for GOOD games, or at the very least, somewhat playable games. A game implementation where the optimal strategy is stalling is not fun for anyone, clogs up the search results, and makes it harder for new players who join BGA and are looking for an actually fun game. If...

This is implemented extremely badly.
It even got the timer bug that doesn't give time on turn end - an absolute NO for any beta game to be released(it can't be caught in alpha)

In general, for the main campaign, there are usually some factors that can make D-Day fail, most are not present in 1944. 1.Isolated allied landings(Scenario) This is fairly self-explanatory. You land in three different areas and your units are isolated upon attack 2.Terrible luck(Scenario) This inc...

The algorithm is absolutely ridiculous. Game is not playable in current state. I’ve played some terrible backgammon apps but nothing as ridiculously bad as this. The opponent didn’t even know how to play. Had 5 to 6 open at all times. And won. Brutal. And unplayable Why was your opponents tactic wr...

Weren't these August Event games supposed to be new games, because I actually have it listed as having played this 3 months ago? Or are these games just coming out of Beta? yes, they are coming out of Beta! Of course - do you think it's a good idea to present unfinished games to the public in that ...

The timing issue has been fixed.

this is pretty much unplayable in real-time
never seen a game without everyone being on timeout - on SLOW.
(the corresponding bug reports were closed without fix)
