I really don't see this game transferring to an app. It's not just ads for revenue, you have to offer something like 'gems' or 'gold bar' for real life cold hard cash. So, what exactly are you going to have players buy? Turns, missiles, whatever it is I don't like it, lol. I'm poor, I want to be beat with skill, not by a 12 year old with rich parents. Then you also run into the problem of sets, are people going to want to pay for something they only have for two months, in other games it's a long term investment.
Another thing is the constant updates to the game and/or holiday update and timed task. I don't see this working either, I commend the admin team for all the updates they have done. But really it's been tweaks to the code and us tweaking game play.
Last I feel like we would take a giant step back in security, we might as well call the app Earth 2025. Now people can create multiple accounts to sucide with or increase clan numbers or to farm. If you say who cares that'll improve our overall numbers, you might as well all switch to the FFA server.
Personally if I was Pang or someone with an ounce of coding ability. I would revamp Boxcar and make a more universal clan site for games like Clash of Clans and any other clan app. Make the the site super mobile friendly, the player base is already there, you just need them to use your site for their clans. To me he could make real money doing something like that, then trying to get a text based app to compete with graphic apps.
