Plus I don't know about the rest of you but I am tired of boring 9 piece sets that you cannot really experiment with by putting different pieces from other sets together. So boring and cooking cutter are these 9 piece sets. Many of us loved the being able to play with the different sets to make new combos. The 9 piece sets are sooooo limiting and boring.

The explanation that "we accidentally wrote cooldown for NPC targets, but we really meant cooldown only for Robber Baron towers" stretches credibility past the breaking point.
It's not like GGE finally read all our letters saying "We need to hit one particular tower, of the dozens of towers around us REPEATEDLY, but we can't because of that darn cooldown period!" If someone in a GGE developer brainstorming session propositioned that feature, it wouldn't even get 2 seconds before the discussion would move on to something else.
Face it. They are trying to back out of something they had time to consider, greenlight, create a workorder for their programmers, bug squash, and then roll out - only to then panic because they don't want players hitting nomads/sams with that frequency. If there is a business case to not reduce the cooldown for those, then have the integrity to admit the mistake and look us players in the eye (metaphorically) and tell us you changed your mind and sell us on why that's a good thing.
But STOP with the lie that it's simply a text error in the description. I'm not a 6 year old who still believes in Santa.
Thanks. Sam.

Actually we had suggested that they lower cooldown on towers proportionately to the lowered camps, so this was sort of a step towards that.
As usual they went way too far (so we thought) and then end up dialing it back to much less than we thought it would be.

You have a point that they can be boring sometimes the nine piece commanders and casts, but the hero does not necessarily have to always be used for nine piece sets either. The only exceptions to this where full sets may be a must have are for pvp or for attacking strong and/or big Foreigner and Bloodcrow castles. The headsman summoning commander for example is useless against Castle Lords with its NPC bonuses from both the hero and also the ninth part of the set which are both for NPC targets only, but "The Invader" to name at least one example helps make this set more useful against castle lords as well (such as pvp, Bloodcrows, and Foreigners to name at least a few examples) along with its glory and looting bonuses in addition to its high wall, gate, melee, ranged, and moat bonuses as well. Guardian of the Lotus King hero could also be used on various different commanders against Castle Lords and not only just for Guardian of the Lotus King set.Awesomecastle13 (US1) said:Plus I don't know about the rest of you but I am tired of boring 9 piece sets that you cannot really experiment with by putting different pieces from other sets together.

Oh yeah,so basically what you all are doing is MAKING FOOL OF US (You made of us a lot of times),Not something new though...Why did you even announce about the wrong text without sharing your opinion with GGS? @BM ang1243 @BM_Friedrich Dont tell me,change your name to Bug Game Studios first...How the hell did you release this set without checking its bonus? Were your Developer and Testing Team sleeping ?BM_Friedrich said:I wouldn't hold your breath but we'll put our opinions in on MondayJYT (US1) said:Yo folks, don't sell your set yet.
Apparently according to @BM_Friedrich GGS might be changing the effects to match the text instead of changing the text to match the effects.
No guarantees, but a good hope.
I am pity sure,my kid do better coding than you all do.
and lastly
RIP GGS

Anyways, looks like no compensation and their decision to change the text to read robber baron castles stands. You can see the post on the announcements board.
I'm as disappointed as you guys

I'm so glad that R/L interfeared with my game play last week lol - players in my alliance activated the booster so pushed to complete this chocolate fireguard of a set - will do my normal and just sell it like all the part sets etc.
as to Robber or tower cooldowns - i have enough towers at the same level that i don't carry enough troops to hit all mine at the same time - with the current cool down i can do my green robbers 3/4 times a day if required - and am doing so between nomad/ sams attacks to wait out their cooldowns , keeps res coming in and coins going up !
feel sorry for those who rushed into upgrades etc. but with GGE you should know - try before you buy / spend !

How about pass on the idea to leave 20% of it as versus NPC so that it is as just a bit better than the nomad cooldown commander set? The other 30 could be versus just robber barons. Trying for whatever we can get.

So in gemrework, why did you put equipments max cooldown to NPC 50. Because of that many people thought this would be finally the commander that has the maximum cooldown. there has never been cooldown to just towers.BM ang1243 said:Furthermore; and we were internally discussing this option; we can’t add a cooldown reduction effect on all NPC targets for the nutcracker commander, since this would break the current balancing for most events.
Best,

Well thank you GGE. and i'm terribly sorry you will not be getting any of my real money to play the khan event anymore. So lets see, trade off? you dont give me back my pixel coins for stupid com you false advertised about so i dont give you any more of my real money to play the event due to taking away 24 hour skips.. wonder who will lose more out on this scenario.

What should have happened is that Goodgame Studios should have reduced the cooldown time for rbc and towers and also had a cooldown time that applies to at least the rbc, towers, and camps from this commander. It would be a big help if this cooldown time had also applied to camps as well and might even encourage people to spend money on the game.
