war cancel feature

New Feature Suggestion: Allow President a time frame to CANCEL war after it's been initiated! Since you don't really have a good chat system (showing x amount of posts and not everyone on team sees posts) if most of team has agreed to not do war this go around and one VP initiates it the President should have a timeframe in which they can cancel the war.

We have a few V.P's on our team who are in different time zones for the purpose of them being able to start war when others on team are sleeping. Since EA introduced this go to war every 2nd day option we've gone to war at times when we would've normally not. Being able to cancel a V.P's initiation of war would be a bonus. We mostly do war every time but sometimes, especially after a really big war, we are spent and need to focus on COM a bit more and collect ourselves and get our monies up again.

EA needs to settle down a bit and allow more user options like War Cancellation or a better Chat system/Email team member inbox system.

    Agree....wish there was a better chat system. Over the holidays for example we agreed to  not do war one day but at the last minute someone accepted war and we were matched right away so too late to cancel. I did demote said player as we have enough ppl in various time zones as V.P who participate reg and get advised on what's going on.

    I get some people like doing war lots but others don't like every 2nd day, especially when COM is on. So far it's been better and perhaps we just need to start our own FB page where we can communicate more/archive posts for future info etc.

    thanks for reply!

    EA has to do that option as we found opposition is hacking on war what we will do whether we have to lose our points..otherwise EA has to do patchup on all loop holes like unlimited energy hack and shield hack
  • I would agree accept for one minor issue...if a team is losing to a stronger team playing fair they might elect to cancel the war which is completely unfair to their opponent - of course no one is so shallow they would do that in this game 😉 I agree EA needs to feverishly address the cheaters and hacks, recognize the fact that turtles are killing this game and own their rules and share them in the forum so everyone is on the same page (looking the other way sends mixed signals - define what is cheating and what is not).

    In reference to playing a team that’s cheating report them and take advantage and win as many war items as possible, beats watching a bunch of individuals hiding in a bubble all day. If you collectively choose not to play a cheater club simply report them and walk away. Good luck.

  • Please add cancel war option. If war is accidentally started we should have option to cancel it. Or another option allow only president of club to start wars.

    I have no war club but a senior member accidentally started a war, I should not have to endure this because of a mistake.

    @gargoyleBAW Yes - I just did this to my team. clicking on accident. UGH! There should be a way to cancel within minutes of starting.

    When war was initiated you had 1 hour to accept when EA introduced it. I agree that only the President should initiate War as I too had same problem with a player accidentally starting a War as we are a no War club. Would also help,if on the War screen the button to start War be put in a different place like bottom right of screen instead of in centre, that would alleviate accidentally starting 1.
