    What is being done to the cheaters, can we have an update

    Nothing. Nothing is being done. Nothing is ever being done. There is a reason Tin Soldier and other mods never put more than a canned response into these threads, and most of the time ignore these threads outright.

    Pax Augusta Event - a Pay to Win event?

    For somebody doesn’t have speed-ups in inventory, this event is pay-to-participate. There’s no realistic way for somebody to go earn a bunch of speed-ups in order to particiipate without spending. (Side note: if Nexon convinces people to burn through a bunch of stored speed-ups, they have a...

    Tactics brought to crap status

    I’m surprised people haven’t figured out Nexon’s pattern. They put things into the game that are unbalanced to generate excitement (and in most cases, get people to spend a bunch of crowns advancing them), wait a couple of months, and then nerf them. Bastions aren’t as much of a crown-earner...

    The Polymath event

    Because nothing says “fun” like firing off several 14-day builds and then having no reason to play the game for two weeks.

    A big round of applause Nexon

    The only thing that surprises me is that there are still people who believe Nexon has any interest in going after cheaters. (Yes, Nexon really should have an interest in fighting cheaters, but years of inaction has proven that they won’t ever do more than make a few token gestures.)

    The Space Age 7.0 Update

    Classic Nexon. I finally get close to finishing my upgrades on a troop type, and I won’t even get to use the fully upgraded version before they nerf it. This is why I refuse to pay Nexon anything. Ever. It’s bad enough when they render a bunch of my time and energy a waste; I’ll never trust...

    Keep the Contents of the Museum and Stronghold Secret

    The challenge with university research and artifacts is that at no point is it obvious that those boosts are in play, and if so, just how big the boosts are. Traps? Hidden at first, but you see them sprung. Donated troops? Hidden at first, but you see them deploy during an attack. But...

    Winter for the Ages: Atomic Rush (1/14 - 1/28)

    I have a few of those buildings. But there’s no point in attacking and accumulating resources when my citizens are locked down for another week. I’m already close to capping out on food and gold just by occasionally picking up from farms and caravans. If there was a point to buying crowns to...

    Winter for the Ages: Atomic Rush (1/14 - 1/28)

    Clearly they expect Atomic Age players to pay $20 to rush *checks notes* roughly two builds. And that’s with a sale with a 50% crown bonus. Like so many others, I now get to sit around and wait for 12 days before I have the capacities to do anything else significant. And then I get to start the...

    Are you insane?

    Look, the people running Nexon aren’t stupid. If they offer this kind of sale, it’s because the whales and people who don’t do the math are buying. The people who spend like that are the ones who they focus on, not those of us that spend the occasional $20. While I happen to believe that the...

    It’s all gone very quiet again !

    It’s almost like the whole thing was nothing more than lip service, and that they really don’t intend to change anything. Good thing Nexon doesn’t have a history of saying they will fix things and then doing nothing (cheaters, matchmaking, sandbaggers, meaningless leaderboards, bugs, etc, etc, etc).

    Introduction: Joe “Muet” Grubb - Lead Designer

    Customer Service and devs have never taken any serious action against cheaters. Not sure why anyone would expect them to change that now.

    Introduction: Joe “Muet” Grubb - Lead Designer

    So to clarify the proposed adaptations to the rebalance: 1) 2-pop tactics will be reduced to 1-pop, but may be nerfed to the point that their values are essentially the same in battles. 2) Heavy tank defender HPs might be reduced. Might not. 3) Unspecified troop buffs to two specific troop...

    Garuda Sakti and Top Killers - Nexon are you blind?

    Who is crazier: the company that consistently has not dealt with cheaters for literally years, or the players who expect them to suddenly start now? Nexon. Does. Not. Care. They only care about their bottom line, and they've clearly decided that cheaters do not impact that enough to do anything.

    Remembering the Great War 6.6 Update

    If you look that those two paragraphs, you will know why Nexon is doing this. They know F2P players will try to power through, while P2W players will keep plunking down cash. Nexon has made it perfectly clear what they are doing. It's tough to let go, but for F2P players, it's well past time.

    New Users Defending Rebalance

    Most people like challenges. Most people don’t like needing to wait 90 minutes (or pay $$$) before they can play again every time they challenge themselves and come up short - which happens very frequently now that Nexon has so ridiculously stacked the deck.

    This is not just an attacking game

    I'm still stunned how players see this as anything other than the cash grab it is. If Nexon wanted a purely defensive strategy to be a viable one, they would have raised the output of farms, caravans, and oil wells. At that point, it might become viable to run a purely defensive strategy...

    Combat Rebalance Stage Four Patch Notes

    Hee hee hee. It’s just all so bad. Taken together, the rebalances do two things: 1) They make it far more likely that people need to rebuild their entire army after every attack. Nexon knows a number of people will lose patience and spend money to get another turn. 2) They force people to...

    Our top player is quitting. Nexon, happy now?

    Except Nexon, apparently. A lot of players are moving on to other games, and they don’t seem to care.

    Incompetent or unwilling or simply dont care

    They don't care. You can look at the threads on the board and figure that out inside 5 minutes.
