How will ZE end?
When a certain time has passed? Like maybe 300 days? (I read somewhere that it goes on for a year)
Or is there a goal? Like building something...
Who becomes the winner? Will it be the alliance or the player with the highest points?

We are planning a suprise new feature that will let the users decide this.

Unfortunately we still dedicate much of our time in fixing various issues. However, today we fixed a big issue that was overwhelming our shiny (&expensive) server (You must already experience much faster loading times). If this attempt is bug-free (we will know till tomorrow) then it means we can proceed into fixing around 3-4 known bug issues (like IPM range, expedition problem with ships, ACBM issue & a couple of other I am forgetting right now).

Once the bug fixes are done we will deploy ACS (big & hard one) and then rapid fire.

I think it would really suck if the game was reset, i doubt im the only one who thinks this, it would annoy a lot of people i would imagine. Cant you just open new universes or something?

The game has to end some time.
Hmnnn... But I never thought about games that would last for more than a year.
I dunno. I don't have the brains to think about it right now. I might have left it at the exam room. :lol:

Weeee... Finals is over! It's time to continue living! :lol:

i think its natural for games like this to reset. after a while i am sure it gets boring i mean people will have retarded huge fleets and it gets weird plus this game is not easy on people that start late a reset will even the play field and give the strong guys a chance to prove that their technique and strategy is the reason they are on top and not the fact that they are weeks and weeks ahead.
