I'm already seeing an ad every 5 minutes, so imagine how much more expensive it would have been without the ads.

Basically they doubled the price and then give 25% discount to make it look like it's a good offer. This is a misleading practice that is even illegal in some countries.

and when it's not illegal it's not respectfull to the players.

Updates were fantastic couldn't find anything wrong in these updates.
keep this up GOODGAME and you will win 2021 gaming awards .

can we have even more updates say like , how you have all these ADS
why not have ADS every time we are about to launch attacks or even
better why not do 55 minutes of ADS every hour and let us play game other
five minutes. 

please keep up this fantastic work GGG  :*

I assume this is going to be corrected at the next opportunity so the two halves of the arches all line up. Otherwise they're very nice and I am pleased with this addition to my castles.

I wouldn't worry too much - by the time you have filled your castles with them, GGS will bring out some more decos with better PO so you can swap them all out....

True but I also like these for purely aesthetic reasons.

Dear GGA,
after this upgrade, the wheel of unimaginable prosperity is a huge scam,
I used 450 tickets, and in total, I got shit things that cost a few thousand rubies. :D It showed a few times a bunch of rubies but every time I got .......... stupid things. But there is one thing I want to thank you.
After this upgrade and others, this game is useless for me and it is only money machine for you.
So I am happy that I am done with this game and If someone asks me what I think about this game I will tell him/her that this game is a scam and if you want become one of the best player so you have to spend a lot of money and I will of course rate you on facebook and other sites regards you. 
With best regards

GG have been playing around behind the scenes again, I think. What happened to 'auto fill'? Now, all I can do is 'fill waves' and then send. As if this game hadn't got bad enough after the last update!!!

Fill waves does the exact same thing as autofill did.

Confused what update we are talking about, old posts and new posts, I take this is just a never ending thread about updates

Well in this recent hot fix I don't see any change really, the commanders are in a scroll down arrangement, instead of a grid choice, I noticed you can click in the slider bar for quicker access, but this has not been mirrored with the tools menu in the attack form, muscle memory is quicker than dragging a slider bar, going from ladders to shields seems like such a chore, if you could click a place in the slider bar instead or aswell that would be better, tbh thats the only thing Ive noticed, oh and the tool menu doesn't jump back to the top when you select flanks, that's an improvement for useability, its these little things that take away the frustration, but if you have selected a tool and go back to the flank it does jump, it only doesn't jump when there empty I noticed, 

yes and some changes in the masterblacksmith, I think a rethink is needed on these offering tbh, they don't give much at all, and still giving fortified mead rams with 5 tool limit meaning 150% gate agaisnt castle with 300 400 500% gate defence so, selling people a useless tool is a bit naughty, imagine you payd rubies for an offering and received rams that you cannot use, and the new boxes that are essentially the jackpot relic items but in a box, I think the tokens and sceats should be removed from the boxes, you could have worked hard and spent a lot to get those ice tokens, and if you spent 5000 of them on a box and recieved a handfull of upgrade tokens, it just makes people angry, playing a game is about fun, so I think they should just have the relic pieces in the boxes and the 1 aff tiket, but remove the upgrade construction and sceat tokens, then we might be interested in them, but for me I wouldnt risk getting one, the 5 affluence tikets much better and cheeper choice,.

If I have missed anything with the new hotfix I'm sorry, 

I think a good hot fix would be the capitals and metros, the bonuses seem very outdated, kings guard troops, I dont think Ive used them since I was level 50 or summit, 

the unique coms and quests in the quest book seem really outdated, the queens defence for instence, lets be honest is a lot of work to compleate, but we win a commander with 66 melee 66 range lol, we need more quests for things, not outdated unique coms that you can only compleate the quest when your level 70, but we have relic far better and don't need the unique coms, maybe there just for souvenier or summit, but jamming up the inventory or useless items,

The thing that I just find annoying is on everyones casts it has the stat for courtyard troop limit on the range stat, aparently my ranged stat on my cast and everyones on the map is 241.88K %, having to do math every spy.

other than that, I think just the obvious storm islands needs better prizes, 1800 deocration pfftttt.

but I dunno Ive not seen much change, generals offerings, that are very highly priced for little return and may give items with no use, the hotfix on the commander selection I don't understand that one, but I think the good part is the tool menu not jumping, other than that I don't see whats changed

And can we put more fabric in rewards for solo, or anywhere, the fabric seems hard pushed for alliance scores, it's pointless just giving the big ruby whales everything, no balance, I don't even think weve won the fabric before in alliance rewards,had the summer boxes couple of times, but only the bronze ones, but fabric only in bth, maybe 1 piece in solo hard + I cant remember tbh, I tried archmaster nomads thinking I could get the mystery boxes, 11 on offer, but only realised the first one is at 850k points, Im not spending £50 to get those boxes haha, , but Ive been looking at the fabric upgrades, I think for the full 60% courtyard you need well over 4000 pieces, I don't blame people losing interest the fabric is an issue tbh.

Noticed there are players in the honour point boared that were not there before the update, and these are banned players with 3000 day pro mode on, can we not take banned players out of the score boardes, and also why are there outposts protected from attacks or capture ? can we not change that, there more protected than a normal good decent player playing by the rules.

This is my honest opinion on things at the mo and the update.

We all need to remember that pay to win games are always dominated by the richer, all online game with purchase are like this, but there could be things to help ones who don't purchase on a ridiculess scales, like fabric for 1, or something, I dont think there will ever be real balance, its imposible in a pay to win game, but as least give people fun things to play with more often, and better prizes.
