RISK spectator mode after I'm defeated

IDEA: If I'm defeated in an online multiplayer game and there are other players remaining, a defeated player should have the option to remain as a spectator to continue watching.

yes agrred whole heartedly
I'm so excited about this.

Thanks Grampy! It won't be in this February update, we needed to address ranking, connectivity and new dice rolling algorithm first, but spectator mode is looking like March. Thanks for playing! –Lee@SMG 

Delighted to hear you're planning to add "spectator".  It is also extremely helpful when you do phone conference with grandkids.  Wonderful learning opportunity if they can watch end game.  Many thousand thanks.  

This would be great indeed! 

This would be a great add on
Update on what improvements are coming please and in what order you plan to do what and how long until we will have the updates. Just some information to keep the community excited. I see lots of great ideas but jw what is actually a possibility to get done for the game
Great stuff Lee - delighted to hear this is planned. Thanks also for the swift response - definitely appreciate and admire your positive engagement with the community. A true example for other studios to follow.

Sam - I'm not sure if you noticed but the status is set to "planned". This means it's currently ticketed and assigned to our production queue. I can't give an exact release date yet, but it is a priority after we release the new dice rolling algorithm (which is just in QA now) and a bunch of other connectivity updates. We can see it's a community favourite feature, so don't worry it'll be coming soon :) We've always wanted to build this, and now we have the forum it just confirms that we have to build it.


And thanks for purchasing premium too. That's the only reason we're able to continue building this game, and we have ambitious plans for new RISK features in 2017! –Lee@SMG

This is a real buzz-killer affecting every single match played between friends. For online games against strangers, you can maybe get away with it. But for family play this is a deal-breaker. This issue currently has double the votes of any other. Sincerely hope this gets prioritised ahead of new maps or whatever else. Have bought premium to support as having seen what you have achieved with game as a whole I trust you to fix this critical issue soon.

When I play the board game, still play the original with wood pieces, I will watch to see who wins, I would be great to be able to do the same with the online version. Thx
