    Well let's see how this goes, all looks good but the only thing i don't like are the cow bells in the music. Anyway, try not to endulge in too much Surströmming (that's if you guys eat it) ?

    Do you mean as a chat channel or the earlier bug? As a chat channel it is coming later and for the bug it was fixed, it was this: "Added Latin Extended Additional characters to the chat font"

    You want us to pay $5 a week to tell the developers what needs fixing? Or am I misunderstanding the VIP subscription? Sure, no ads would be nice, but pay you weekly? Shame on you

    I've played a few games but haven't seen the new map ?
    Also how many players are allowed in fleet up friend battles ?

    Devs,
    Why I can´t fleet up with a friend with no more than 800 infamy difference?
    Because your system does. I, again, just lost a battle cause I was the only one in a match with infamy 2500 against infamy more than 4000.
    Just explain why your system can put me with the lions and I cannot be the biggest one in a very lower level??
