Looking forward to the 10/1 Dominant Fierce agent That's exactly the kind of balance I was hoping for. Strong but not OP. We'll see!

Really good read, nice job Tuism and off course a big thx to Marc himself (aka Antonio . Some real good questions in there so thank you too community! Very cool to hear about the new stuff first hand, looking forward to the new expansion! I also think it's pretty sweet he didn't kill the AC1 expansion idea, I think that could be great. About the new ability, I think it's one of the ways to keep the game fresh but I hope it doesn't get out of hand like it did in Magic. I kind of doubt it will because the expansion updates aren't that frequent and like TuGod said, the prices are doable in comparison to MTG. I can imagine the new deck titles allready... (Dominatin' Dante, Domisanes, ...) Good to hear they are thinking about moving beyond the Game Center too, opening up the way for ELO and tournaments and so on. This game is getting bigger every day and with an upcoming PC versions it's only going to get better. Hurray! ps: thx for pushing my stalker questions Tu, and yes, I sure am enthousiastic

Don't pick up on that God thing please, that's Pete's joke and I can't change that damn title myself. Arrgh I find it interesting that he says Dominant CAN go on agents, sites, and...... actions. That means we MAY expect more direct influence actions like Papal Influence Interesting! I also would love to see some synergies opening up with Artists, Scientists, Engineers, Soldiers and other currently untapped types. But all in good time! Tourney structure first hopefully!

Hi people, I think it's time to pay attention at certain severe game flaws... Check the Gamecenter's ACR Leaderboard, it's time to reset highscores, provide some proper banning method against cheaters and finally put one (initially!) long-time requested game feature: an ELO-based Leaderboard. Stop giving points to cheaters and to people who can waste their lifetime playing an app 23/24 hours a day (LOL!), I think many of us fellow players/fans would like to see a decent and truly impartial Leaderboard ladder.
Hope I'm expressing properly my idea, just I wanted to report this to your (fan) attention.

Hope I'm expressing properly my idea, just I wanted to report this to your (fan) attention. Agreed, and as you can see in the interview above, they are looking into server options, etc. As it is right now, Game Center is obviously not fulfilling requirements. Personally, I don't really care about the leaderboard at the moment, so I really don't give a rat's ass about that top score of craziness, nor about cheaters. Quitting is so much less hassle than getting angry over it, IMHO I do sincerely hope that the correct competitive structures will arrive before the next expansion - even if it pushes the expansion out. But hey, again it's my own personal opinion. (gotta stress the personal opinion thing cos people get offended really easily when it's something they're passionate about )

I need ELO just for matchmaking. For now I play with 1 competetive good player from 10 other, not noobs but i'm still unsatisfied with their play. With my other affairs, a can play 10-20 games per day, offen less than 10. Invite friend is very bad option: very slowly, always need to guess is friend online or not. My gamecenter rank is 630. Summing up: IMHO no one knows about game balance real information. So matchmaking system before new set is much more preferable.

javascript:add(" ","") Marc: That’s a long question We are certainly planning on developing the game as much as we can (I’m not sure about topping Magic though but why not ). I have expected anover answer. But if we can help devs to make AC:R the CCG leader, I'll do it with my best. I have already recommended the game everywhere than i can, in our russian another CCG community. As i saw, the language is most heavy obstacle for new russian players.

Summing up: IMHO no one knows about game balance real information. So matchmaking system before new set is much more preferable. This is basically what I'm looking for a true needed, mandatory fix to this beautiful game. Agreed 101%. Tuism: it's perfectly understandable "to not care" about any cheaters in the Leaderboard, but my post doesn't meant to give attention to them as people. Where exploits or cheats are present or found, it's hard to even hope to see a tournament-like feature available for this game, nor even mentioning about one bad day you're discovering you're missing some cards from your database. it's probably my paranoia, but with glitches comes also major net problem certain times... Methinks for developers of ACR isn't a very hard task to do some fixing about that (really bad) thing, for sure resetting the whole leaderboard can give all of us a better chance to enjoy a better polished highscore table (starting from zero, cheaters will pop up again in masses, since they're always really stupid people, but due to polished leaderboard it's more easy to report and ban them - if devs will implement some server side checking). If someone like may plea, please report them (especially the absurd first player), probably Apple can do something serious against their Gamecenter account if they're reported by many people. That's what I mean... Starting to gain some respect as loyal players and ACR fans. Still waiting that ELO and tourney-like features... ;D

Elo is needed. Next step. It's basically incentive to play. Top players to gain bragging rights; beginners to be matched with players like them; instead of being thrashed 90% of the time. Looking forward,
