Topic: [388776] Giving you all a heads up

[-388776] SUPER-MAC (GB1) [GB1] :: Dec. 18, 2022, 12:58 a.m.
Hi all, bit of drama today with an alliance protecting a dirty player, anyway one of them hit me today, and I just wanted to share with you all the general, the general that GGE supposedly introduced for more balance, look at these skills, and just take a moment to think if this is even a game anymore, and then think about the indifference from whale, and non whale, and not to mention who pays how much for the same rubys, and just think is this even a game, the blag of more balance is clearly a load of crap just from these images Im sharing, same attack one shows the skills, and one shows the abilities, bare in mind this is 3 star not 5 star so you can imagine this game is pointless now

The stars don't add any power.

yeah, but they unlock the next set of 10 levels, so in a way they do add power, the point of this was to say a 3 star general meaning 40 levels and more skills can be added, the proxys are first to the goodies, but in 6 months when everyone got this level how is this game going to work as a game, there is 4 generals, maybe a 5th pirate coming soon, this does not balance anything, especially when its a mead player hitting non meads with 20k mead troops, haha, I'm tryng to alert before the downfall of the game, that evidently, this will not work, the complexities or the different stats and skills and tryng to have the correct general on if you have enough to go round just I dont really wana explain the obvious, your a moderator, so you will be bias towards GGE, but this is not balance, especially when its 950's hitting 500's, I suppose being a 950 this wouldnt bother you, but with the progression, sceats and tokens needed to get to a level where you can house 200k mead defence at a high level, I mean come on lets stop being silly with coments, its obvious what i was tryng to say, it just wont work like your thinking it will, those stats are ridiculess.

Yeah, the generals are pretty Overly Powerful. But, that's usually what happens during an update. And, it's not surprising that spenders do get the upper hand.

 I really don't see a lot of level 950 players hitting lower accounts at my level. Although, I have been guilty of it myself on occasion to teach a lesson to a whole Alliance that sets out of line and pushes a little too far or sometimes just a single character, or even when they have gold and silver as the rewards in the shady lady. But, even then it usually ends up being a set of 32 wolves and a shield maiden commander.

But, the majority of the time 950's keep to themselves. It's pretty frowned upon in certain circles to just go around picking on victims. Most of us want an actual challenge which is why people play this game it isn't exactly super easy and the consequences of your actions can be dire. 

Again, I think it's all about perspective. You keep drawing the conclusion that it just is somehow unfair and out of place. But, it is the game. And, it's going to remain a mechanic of it from now on. The sooner you lose the feeling of inferiority the sooner you'll pull yourself out of victimhood and see potential.  

The new stats are insanely powerful. But, for the most part, the people that have them were insanely powerful and there wasn't any stopping them in the first place. But, usually, they fight each other.

You're either gonna step up to the challenge or fail to try.

your missing the point AGAIN, the only way he has got to 3 stars so quick is with a proxy columbian account getting everything a lot cheeper, but that isnt my issue here, the issue is that we know its not a game with ingame purchases, we know there is no skill or strategy when you can just purchase things, but we all know that, the issue i was making out, is what amount of unrealisitic defence do you need for these ridiculess stats, if you cannot see there is no real game here then I dont know what to say to you, they made this update for balance but look at the images, that is not balance, when you compare the generals defence stats.

But to answer your comment about 950s hitting lower levels, the UK server is full of cowards mate, they all hit lower levels, coz they are wimps, also wimps that hide behind top alliances, thats how the attack started to be honest, one of there 950 wimps hitting low levels, even a legendary level 10 the other week, so i retaliated with 15k troops 400 courtyard and sent 7 coms with extra waves, and there alliance protected him even though hes hitting multiple hits and on burning castles and the next day on players that dont even have mead, but hey thats the number 1 alliance for you, so this player in the image decided to send few hits with me retaliating to a dirty player, but that ok, the point of this post, was to show to unbelivable opposite to balance, the imblance has now been taken into outer space, giving us generals on top of a proxys wet dream with -25% from melee defence and -50% from ranged defence and also adding an extra 20% courtyard, lol, you forget that if there number one on other things they get more bonuses, but earning it from a proxy account, getting cheeper rubies, this sia dirty game really, thers no strategy, no skill, its pay to win, and they allow proxies, the proxies get everything first, and win events, and get bonuses, its not a game so please dont call it a game, its a social platform to spend money, there is no game here, but anyway this was just to show the balance they created, and you could imagine what a 5 star general will look like, having said that if this was to create balance, then this would balance high levels hitting low levels, but that has not happended, quite the opposit, please dont even try to protect it, its blatently obvious, dont be that person bloodybase, you seem like a nice individual, 

The way this game could work is with a subscription fee and no in game purchases, then we would have a game based on skill, and strategy, I may sound like im moaning but honestly its summit different everyday, from archmaster changing mechanics, to the bugs to the imbalance, to the higher stats but loosing more troops, how can you not see it, having to pay to succed and win by purchase does not give a sence of acomplishment or any satisfaction as you did not win, you just purchased ahha this isnt a game, this is getting mixed up now, it was just about the ridiculess stats on generals, have a nice day :)

Well, I can argue that there are many levels of strategy in this game and many ways to defeat as well as demoralize ruby whales. I've done this many times throughout my life playing GGE. 

But, you really do have a defeatist attitude... and there doesn't seem to be much I can say to change that.

And, I am not siding with "them" it's just the perspective I have. I am doing plenty well and my Castles are plenty strong in comparison to the majority of players on my server. I am still doing exceeding well.

The people ahead of me are a lot stronger than me. No doubt. But, it doesn't really mean to me that I've been defeated... I've always thought it to be about the way I approach the challenge. Many times taking up challenges in life most people wouldn't even dare to undertake. 

Hopefully, you can garner a more hopeful attitude in the future. I am looking forward to unlocking my Generals and am welcome to any tweaking that GGE would like to make to them in the future. But, can admit they come with extreme advantages that can be disheartening to the average player.

Yet, again sorry about the Archmaster or whatever it's called debacle. 

Yeah, a far better subscription service would be nice. I wished they'd tweak the initial one. I really want that auto-equipment deletion and the auto spy... but can't justify $25 to do it. If it honestly were to include all three I could really see some value in it. Most subscription services are around $20 or so... So, so it would make sense. And, if they made one even better that gave you event bonuses and some tools or whatnot even better. But, as they stand. It really doesn't make me want to purchase them. And, it's nearly $50 for all of them and that's not a bargain to me at all. 

But, I guess it all is what it is... and we will have a difference in some opinions as always.

I am going to continue the game, however... 

My Alliance has been getting into the top 10 for might points on the server with just around 40 or so people. So, it's a bonus I guess and hopefully means we'll get some more top 5 finishes and better BTH runs. 

There is a lot that needs to go into a character to make them strong in this game... but, you are right. It's excessive and expensive that I can not argue with.

Good Day to you Sir. I say "Good Day".

lol oh base you just dont get it..... take care my friend lol.

its like the olympics and then other participants taking performance enhancing drugs.

and yeah you may look forwards to unlocking a general, but maybe you cant see it, but when everyone has these generals unlocked its not exactly going to create ballance, im not a defeatist, im a realist, that can work things out in the early stages, its blatently obvious the mechanics are ruined far beyond what they where,

just one question this so called game can be won by players using proxy accounts, and how can you say thers skill when an event is won by purchase, a pvp war can be won untill they just keep purchasing troops until they win, that is not skill, that is what rich players who win think is skill, skill would be to play with not purchasing, but thers no point in arguing over it, and the subscription thing , I meant everyone had to pay say £5 a month to play, and there was no in game purchases, then the events wrre won fairley by skill, pvp was won fairly by skill and recruiting and hospital etc not by a best seller shop. I find it so funny that a rich person can just keep hitting and laugh at people as if they have won when really we all know if in game purchases were gone, the whole tables would turn, the top alliances, would definatly not be the top alliances, the winner of events, would no longer be the winners, most likeely they wouldnt even come close, we all moan on the forum, complain coz the fact is its a pay to win game, not a skill to win game, it is mearly a platform designed by a company to make money this is not really a game, its a participation, and the ones who yern and get angry are the by far better players just without the large bank accounts or they play by the rules and use there own currency not columbian or whatever it is they use.
