So about the equipment issue for new players that people have already mentioned, perhaps a donation option where veterans who have all their equipment maxed and fighter slots maxed and having nothing to spend on can donate to new players in their alliance. I for one would be willing to donate to an alliance member to help them accelerate their growth. I understand the game needs to make money. So maybe a cap on how much each camp can donate or something like that.

Game needs a bit of a recruitment drive on Reddit and Discord.

I would have a second ribbon under the current one headed "Game Tips" with:

You-tube guide(s)
Overview (current game tips)
Registering Your Camp
Hiddens & Attributes
Styles Guide
Style vs Style Matchups
Message Board Sign-up
Discord Sign-Up

Should make it easier for new players to get started with minimal changes to the landing page.

not sure if its been suggested before, but how about a coach created 'legends league' along the same lines as tournaments but they have different criteria and you can choose points for wins, stoppages etc. Almost like a coach created organisation almost, unless thats taking the idea too far?
this could be fleshed out a lot but just a random idea ive thought of.

and another idea, which may split people, but how about achievements like x amount of stoppages or x amount of wins would give little rewards as rewards, like maybe an extra spar or two or something like that? again another thing off the top of my head and open to criticism/brainstorming


also tycoon has alot of great ideas that could work here

Default country option for new players signing up is whichever country is top of the WRV when they sign up, not America

Gives new players a better start

I believe you can select a nationality when registering a new camp.

Yeah but new players likely won't know about wrv, likely will take the nation they live in.

WRV is a decent sized advantage, but if you force a new camp into a nation you could lose something in the connection to new recruits. I'll probably always run a US camp since I live there, to the detriment of my record.

The suggestion is not a bad idea to give a boost to new camps, just wish there was a way to implement something like wrv without losing that.
