when there is an incoming attack horn , the horn should blow like a horn for at least 1 minute

Sure. Especially when at war and getting multiple horns. In fact, it should get LOUDER the more incoming you have. More horns also means different notes, right? That wouldn't get annoying at all...…..JbeginningPlay5 (US1) said:when there is an incoming attack horn , the horn should blow like a horn for at least 1 minute

Haha I can hear it now already. This feature would be too annoying for me and I would end up turning it off with the background music but at least it's a thought.

It could start a little tune, more horns the better it gets. Maybe it could play the old theme

when there's an incoming, whether 1 or 50, 1 horn blow is sufficient for 1 to 2 minutes only...try not to read to much into common sense, if a horn blowed for 50 incomings i'd stop playing the game all together

never-the-less in places where common sense is not common there is an urgent call for clarification

Evidently sarcasm isn't as common as uncommon sense.
Ok - I will use standard language: That is a bad idea. It would get annoying very quickly.
I understand the idea behind it: So you can multi-task and be doing other things in the area and there goes the horn! Quick! Run to the game and set your Def! I get that. (I would still have to mute mine - just image, in the middle of a Skype meeting: Hey Wasso? What is that loud horn? uh...nothing Boss....just give me a second...….)
So, having an audible horn loud enough to react to, would also mean having to listen to the sound track of this game. Constant background of that??? No thank you.
So, will you now alter your suggestion to be that the Horn Sound is separate from the music? One button for the music on/off and another one for the horn on/off?
At the end of the day, if you are playing the game you should notice that big red border and the horn icon in the corner. If you are not actively paying attention, then just make certain your defense is always set up. For the record, YES - I have had it happen multiple times that I am working on my main screen and the screen with GGE has gone dark as I haven't touched that mouse in a while. When I get a chance to check it, 20 mins ago I was hit. Would an audible horn have helped? Not really. What I was doing at the time was MUCH MORE IMPORTANT than playing this silly little game.
Let's all just remember, it IS just a game. We shouldn't be planning our lives around it...…….
