If officers were granted the exact same powers as leaders then there would be no point having officers.
Maybe have multiple announcements.

I like the idea of having three announcements, makes for more older things that need continued, and being able to say to help take to protect a planet :) .

-1 if your officer you dont have the power to make announcements hence dont have the power to tell your legion collectively what to do or give instructions if you want this power work for it because it dont come easy

I already give my legion instructions and tell them what to do, but this would be easier since it doesn't get drowned out by all the other things people say in the comm. As for working for it, well this is just a baby step closer to becoming leader, one additional responsibility, doesn't need to be exclusive to leaders and shouldn't.

two words: Officer chat.


If you can't get their attention write on their comm. There are far fewer officers that don't pay attention for this to really be necessary.




ship comms cost energy and the ability to post a "single announcement" for all leaders/officers is needed as well as letting officers make an announcement even if its a secondary one

and officer chat gets lost in high chatting legions like mine. sometimes after just 2 or 3 hours its not even in the archive anymore, has nothing to do with officers that don't pay attention, its about people sleep and are not able to get the communication. WE NEED IT BAD and im sure others do to.

5 energy to spend on one officer is really not a big deal imo and that is only in case of emergency. You can see officer chat without the clutter of the rest of the legion, so unless your officers are having a long discussion that takes up days worth of space, they will be able to read everything for the last two days. If you are posting in the legion comm and need the officer to be able to read it post it in the officer chat or send them a PM on facebook.

It just seems unnecessary and I rather have a very simple change, because those are the ones that get implemented. You are asking for way more than just being able to make announcements.

i would usually agree, but, im not talking about a single officer for 5 energy .
and there is more than enough space for the code below the other announcement and the comm is a rather narrow section of the game also , so its not as much of a problem as you may think for the DEV's (lol, really tho - i am usually one that shoots this kinda thing down for its complexity for the developers to design, but i dont see this as that bad)

I still disagree with the addition for inter officer core announcements. I know my officer core is probably quieter than most but I can see back up to 4 days in the officer chat. I highly doubt that your officers talk to each other to such a high degree that a post from a few hours ago will be lost.

What I was saying is officer to legion communication is weak. The rest are fine in my opinion, this includes Leader (L) to legion (l), L to Offficer (O), L to Individual (I), O to I, I to L, I to O. Only O to l is weak. Granted some legions might not need this, which is why I am saying it is an option for leaders to give to the officers.

WoW....... 4 days......... seriously... and your doubt is a absolutely wrong. we are constantly limited to 4 to 12 hrs history and many times it is 2 hrs, especially during wars, trades, bases, where communication is high...

that is a bit much, all that is needed is L to l, L to O, O to L, O to l.. announcements to individuals is only 5 nrg away, and is available now..lol

we use facebook IM, less lag and I can contact them outside of them game, which they usually are not in for long any way. One of them just came on helped kill a level 5 base, he was on for like 10 minutes, said what he got from the raid suggested we do more level 5s and signed off. None of this was in the officer chat.

I think you misunderstood what I said, but at least you agree with me on the individual ones, which I think the L to O and O to L can be lumped into. I know you guys have like 2x my officers so it might be more of a challenge for you guys which is why you are pushing for it, but honestly facebook IM basically does everything you want from officer announcements. I can scroll back for months and it gives a little red tag, which an officer can check and be a bit more activate than the normal member.

It doesn't grab the attention of 40 people which is why I want the announcement abilities.

Simply just type "/o" you will be able to leave chat logs that only other officers and leaders of the legion can view incase its a sensitive matter

I wish the leaders had a setting they could turn on and off to allow officers to set legion announcements.

I still want it. I'd also like to see WHO posted the announcement.

Absolutely agree. There should be a option with either "yes" or "no" that leaders can set to allow officers to post legion announcements. Additionally, the announcement that pops up in a small box on the top left of the screen should show the name of the player setting the announcement.
