| Hello Chaotic Beta Community! Our development team is hard at work on making changes and improvements to the Chaotic Client to be released in the near future. Many of you have had opinions and suggestions in the past about what you don't like in the current Chaotic Client, or what you'd like to see added.
Seeing as you're all Beta testers, it's time to officially make your voices heard! We'd like to hear any and all ideas you have about the Client. Here are a few guidelines to go by when doing this:
- Give us suggestions for what you'd like to see added into the current (or even a brand new!) Client. Anything from new graphics, 3D, character models, backgrounds, sound effects, music, and whatever else you can think of! We really want to see as many ideas as you can give for this. Keep it realistic though please - i.e. no "Beam me into Perim and let me fight Chaor!"
- Tell us what you don't like or want to see changed in the current Client. Include anything and everything you don't like - from the small to the large.
- Tell us what you do like about the current Client.
- Please keep this discussion civil and polite. Do not put down other people's ideas, or use this as a way to insult any forum members or Chaotic staff.
- Be creative!
This is a rare opportunity to influence what happens with Chaotic in an official capacity. All suggestions and feedback will be taken straight to our development team.
This is what being a Beta tester is all about - the chance to share your opinions and ideas, and make a difference in development! We look forward to seeing your ideas and feedback. As always, thanks for being part of our Chaotic Beta Community!

| I'll periodically edit and update this post as I come up with more feedback on the Game Client.
What I Don't Like/Criticisms
- I don't like there being a 'symbol' in place of where the mouse is supposed to be. It looks nice, but because of it, there are issues with c l i c k placement (i.e., checking the Master Rules box).
- I don't like the various graphical errors in the game when you sometimes tab in and out or minimize the game (i.e., the text in the Game Summary and Chatbox, as well as all of the stats on the cards and other boxes being off-center with the window). I'd think that there should be some way to keep the text and stats in-line with the window, so that even when you minimize, you don't have to re-boot Game Client just to re-align everything in the game.
- Just a few graphical criticisms. The energy bar still overflows when you have a certain amount of energy. Also, it's very hard to see the amount of energy a creature has on its card picture, as its cut off by the taskbar on the bottom of the screen.
What I Do Like/Suggestions
- *Edited 3/24* I suggest that, in addition to the Game Summary notifications, you should add an option to make the notifications more detailed, whether that be through another tab where the Game Summary text is, or you just add it to the text that's already there. In addition to what's already displayed, I think that information like the amount of energy damaged or healed should be displayed, or, in the case of moving, it should be indicated what space on the game board the creature is moving to (especially when Mirage locations come into play), etc. This way, there are no disputes as to what exactly happened on the last turn that took place.
- I suggest that, if possible, you should implement the Army Builder into the Game Client. It becomes quite a hassle when, in between battles, I want to make a quick tweak with my army, but I have to open IE and navigate all the way to the website just to change a couple of cards.
- *Added 3/24* (Not Client-Specific) I suggest that, if a player has any pending trades, and a trade is accepted, that when the player logs on to the website or the Game Client, a message pops-up notifiying the player that they need to approve a trade, and they can do so while on the website, without having to periodically check their e-mail.
- *Added 6/11* When the lobby features are added to the Game Client, and there will be chatrooms, etc, and we can challenge other players from there, I'd like the ability to be able to watch other players' matches, both for entertainment and strategy purposes.
- *Added 6/11* Also, the ability to save replays of matches would be a welcome addition to the Game Client. This way, players can review any mistakes they may have made, and, in the case of any possible bugs that may have occurred, you can actually see the bug take place in action.
- *Added 6/12* Once the lobby features are released, I'd like the ability for players to be able to make their own 'rules' in fun, unranked matches. By that, I mean that that players can set-up a rule saying that only common and uncommon cards may be used in their match, and then the Army Builder can pop up in the game client, and they build their decks right from there, with the limitations built-in. These special rules could also apply to your tournaments, once they're released.

| I do not like the new form of trading. I like thatwe can see the stats, but sometimes my e-mail doesn'twork. I wish that it was back to normal, or instead of e-mail to accept it a pm.
Thanks,

| | i think u could fght like a real creature but not "transport to perim", like fighting online in 3-d and shouldnt "?" be allowed in the autobattle? i think the draccoins can be used to unlock special events, a new collection page or a chaotic game at 4kids |

| Improvements
I would like there to be 3D versions of the creature on top of the card when they are being moved or are in combat. I also think the Chaotic Patcher needs to work faster. I want the final result to be as close as possible as looking like the screenshot in the Chaotic Official Rule Book on Pg. 40 with a picture of Attacat and Takinom battling.
New Ideas
I would like to see the Chaotic Client have the World of Perim to play. You should be able to customize your character, and then have an in-game scanner and be able to scan creatures once you beat them or something. The WHOLE world of Perim being implemented into this game would be great. This part of the game should be an MMORPG. I think that this could be added to the Client, or if not possible, then maybe make a New Client just for this, or maybe release it as a Video Game on 360 and PS3.
(Sorry for getting a little off-topic in last statement) |

| PCShark11, if you forget to say something, you can just edit your original post instead of making a whole new one.
And for my suggestions...
After someone uses all of their mugics, and doesn't have any activated abilities that they can use, they shouldn't be given time in the pad for burst options. I see some people who use it to stall, when there isn't even anything that they can do.

| I suggest ZOTH should be playable in both Master and Apprentice rules because of people complaining of the top ten playing apprentice. Also it allows the ZOTH players to use mugics obtained from the ZOTH booster packs.
Also, Id suggest removing Shader 1.1 (Which I know your currently doing).

| Wow, where to start. I guess my first priority would be drac coins, where i could release my locked cards and buy upgrades for my creatures. 2) Fix how the burst works, how it stands now overworld and danian creatures healing abilties are tied down. There is a post about this which goes into detail. But for eg.. my maxxor has full health, his barath first attack is flame orb canon/canon underworld collusium. Maxxor is destroyed with one hit and can not use healing ability. If i use it between canons and the other person is smart enough not to play other canon, my song of resurgence was just wasted. Which most of top 50 know that. anyways not going into details. please read post dealing with burst effects.
3) Trade system and trades pending. i currently have 14 trades pending thus locking my cards for future trades. I can not cancel trades and the trades are no longer listed on trading station. There should be a way to reset my creatures again so i can trade them. I do not trade commens any longer so these cards are ultras and super rare cards.
4) 6v6 i would like to see this as soon as possible. but before that i would like to see zoth cards working in master rules.
5)More information on progress of the game. Just keep us informed as how you guys are doing. Instead of hearing coming soon. I would like to hear, trade problems are being worked on and the staff is half way from completing their task. Two more days and it should be working properly. That is just an example.

| Problems- The trading system sometimes works, but not always. I figured out you had to both be logged on for it to work.
When playing a match sometimes all the stats, energy and chatting drops down a space. So you can't see the speed, chatting, or energy of a creature.
When building armys if you take out a card or accidentally put it beside something you either can't take it out or put it back to its right spot.
The Danians and Mipedians do not have a lot of cards that can face the big four iin 3v3.
We need more wind a water attacks that aren't super or ultra like acid wash and etc.
I don't know if this is a problem or if it is supposed to be like this, but say your rellim and use torrent of flame at gloomluck swamp. Should it do five or ten damage because rellim does not have fire?
================================================================
Improvements- Website needs a better user interface so its faster to load pages.(the collection takes forever)
Implement the use of mugic or abilities that bring back creatures, mugic, or attacks in the discard pile.
Make zenith of the hive and silent sands master rule and abilities work.
Make the chaotic pad show tournaments, dromes(maybe a 3d little chaotic place)not perim though. Maybe a creature of the day with best strategy to use them.
Avatars that can be changed(facial expressions, color, clothes, background.
Online chaotic episodes that has every single one. Maybe exclusive web toons.
After winning a lot of matches in a certain drome getting to play a computer or sometimes real codemaster. Where you can win exclusive creatures.
Rewards for having certain amounts of posts.
Getting to make signatures(even though I already made one.)
More smileys.

| I really don't like the new trade system. Yes it does work and I have had a trade go through but it is a little inconvinient. I think that a pm confirmation would be much better. Also maybe a mode that doesn't count towards elo so we can test out decks.
I would also like to see a well spread out organized play program. Not everyone can travel to New York or San Diego just to play Chaotic. Maybe a form or something we could request that we could print out in an e-mail and give to a store owner that they can fill out if they want to be a part of the op program.
Ability to host online tournaments. Like a system that would allow us to enter a tournament and have the host either accept or reject their entry. Then be alerted by pm that your next opponent is on and to challenge them.
Get rid of the backrounds on the site. They are usually blocked by stuff and are a hassle to load.

| Ok Things I Wan't to see Added To The Game (Might not all be client related)
1. Codemasters along with a different looking battle room for each codemaster for more depth to the look while we play our matches. I would also like to be able to win rare scans from the code masters I mean something like 2,000 wins in 1 of the battle rooms will get you a match with that rooms codemaster for the possibility of winning a card from a future set if you can beat him/her.
2. Sound effects for each attack card and mugic played Will also add more depth and a better gaming expierience.
3. Chaotic Music would Be fine with me but not just one track that would be awful if your going to do it make sure they have around 20 songs minimum so its not repetitive.
4. 3d images of your creature that stand up out of your card when engaged in combat would be very cool so its obvious who is battling & you could concentrate more on the whats at hand and not every card on the board.
5. The Trade System is really slow/bad I really think the old version worked better for the age group.... use the new system for private trades through the pm system if its possible may take a lot of smart programming or just some other way.
6. In The "Army" section add an option to sort all attack cards by build points so its easier to build decks. Hard to remember whats 1 point and 2 sometimes.
7. A player name search option in league rankings so I don't have to scroll through hundreds of players names to try and find the name im looking for
8. every match you win should atleast award you 1 point in the standings even if your rank is number one becuase it is impossible when we get matched with people ranked in the thousands over and over again and get no credit for it.
9. More Mods Are Needed don't get me wrong you all do a wonderful job but there are too many people using this site for the number of people you have higher some player mods that you have come to trust and respect to work for free deleting double threads along with other repetitive tasks.
10. I was also thinking of this idea I have 50 even 60 of the same common card in my collection it would be cool if there was a way where we could trade the scan in for a certain amount of online money that we coud use in turn to boost cards in our collection or even trade for better cards like 50 commons for a super (online store sorta) trust me if you have this many of the same card repeated you would understand.
11. customizable Avatars please Im sick of my Afro lol
12. Private Team Threads Along with actual team tags that go along side your name that shows in game, posts, and league rankings anywhere that it says your name until you remove yourself from that team.
13. Permission to use signatures and Post outside urls for people who may need to go off site to by cards or find information im sure you could set it up that if the player in question is under the age of 18 that his account would disable the viewing of any url looking message/post.
14. Get Rid of the lock card feature its aggrivating when you wan't to trade a card and you can't
15. News items should not be announced in the forumn threads it should be announced through the notification thing at the top of your screen where it says trade pending check your email which would flash when you log in so you notice that theres new news more eyes would see need to know information this way
16. profanity filter needs more work you can't even say i_llexia even though shes the strongest female creature card in the game
17. Not sure how the online tournament section is going to work but it would be nice if we could here what is planned so we could let you know if its a good way to do it or a bad way
18. Spectator option so new players can watch games or like how my team has tournaments if your on while a tournament match is being played you could watch it.
20. Fix the add friend bug on the forumns
thats all I can think of for now fell a sleep writing this last night
