2 Blacksmiths for Global Age makes sense

[Königsberg]

I don't have Global Age yet. I'm an iOS user. However, with 2 more troops and 1 more air unit, 10 more levels per general (60 levels in total), more troop, tactics, planes upgrades in Armory, I think it would make sense to add an additional blacksmith.

I'm in IA and I calculated that it would take me over a year to max out my Armory. Now with Global that's probably gonna be 2-3 years to get everything maxed.

I think an additional blacksmith would be reasonable. The current one is overworked and probably will die of exhaustion if he doesn't get an help from another blacksmith

unless you spend lots of crowns of course.....but it wont take so long to get major upgrades and they are the ones that alter gameplay and make things more fun. High level generals are just fluff really. Nice powerful fluff, but still fluff.

 

[Königsberg]

Agree that Generals aren't a major unit. However, if your Global and your Generals are still in Gunpowder it's a bit dumb.

Can anyone confirm barrack troop upgrade in GBA cost food or oil? I need to upgrade storage!

This is getting ridiculous. Having EVERY upgrade at the blacksmith is silly. As is pointed out, it will take over 2 years to fully research everything, and that's just in global age. What about Atomic and Space age? A player should be able to max the game in no more than 2 years. At this rate, a new player in the Space age will take 5+ years to fully enjoy the game. How do you expect anyone to do that?

AT THE VERY LEAST, move general upgrade research to the castle.

We really need another house or two as well. Industrial age alone takes 6 months to max defenses, that's crazy. Global age I assume will be a year or more, and we're not even close to space age. The game designer needs to take a long hard look at upgrade times. Dominations is far far above average in upgrade times compared to similar games, and likely will hurt its popularity.

DomiNations. .. a game for the patient player or credit card warrior. Enjoy the ride, frustration makes the accomplishments seem that much sweeter.

Feeling the love today

Unfortunately if the game catered to free players, there wouldn't be a game to play

 

[Ravenlord]

That's my girl - always positive!!

It takes so many resources to save to upgrade the black smith till u save for one research it you won't need a 2nd one. Interested in seeing global units in action check out these YouTube replays. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=g7TINLf5FVw

 

[Königsberg]

I usually have more resources than I can spend. Plus with long upgrade times there is more than enough time to save resources.

Nexon doesn't care what is logical. Dominations get more to paynations. Since I started playing my blacksmith is working night and day and yet I'm not finished with all ia stuff ( although I spent crowns for some updates). I don't wanna mention my poor lvl 1,6 and 10 generals.

Yay Nexon rather searches for opportunities to annoy people and make them move by introducing ridiculous so called fixes and don't listen to players, just also continuing linear dumb cost and cool downs without changing any economics ..

great job guys, already hate the upgrade.

 

[Max_imus]

I agree with Konigsberg, its no that hard with those long times. And if you want a short game then uninstall Dominations , also you dont have to have every general on lvl 20 before the next update mehh...

Someone telling it like it is...

 

[papier]

The biggest problem is not the time, but the amount of loot, my armory spends most of time doing nothing, cuz I can't afford any upgrade. They really need to increase the passive food/gold income by a LOT!

 

[ped2000]

Im so glad other people think this too. Hopefully we can get more speaking up and less cheer leading.

 

[ped2000]

2 really good longtime players have quit the game totally in my alliance already. I might be the 3rd. Game is getting ridiculous with the intentional design to make you break out your wallet for absurd amounts of real money.

 

[Yellowmar]

Sorry ped2000 do not want to be sound rude but the last time i checked your alliance most of you are pretty low with you being on top. they must be doing something wrong if they been playing long and not able to progress.

Of the F2P games Ive played, dominations probably requires less spending than any other one ive seen. In the past year, I made one purchase, the starter pack for like 20 bucks a year ago. Today, since Im actually happy with the progress being made for once, I bought starter pack 2. Pretty slick deal for the year Ive been playing the game, and I could have easily not gotten both and be in good shape.

Also, tip for those concerned with blacksmith....if you're upgrading every single thing to max, you're probably not following a good strategy. Upgrade the things that are important to you.

 

[Königsberg]

What?

I'm assuming your not in IA.

I'm sitting on max Food. Wish I could spend it in the Armory. Loot isn't the problem. The problem is having nothing to spend it on. Extra Gold goes into walls but would be nice to have a second blacksmith to invest all the food and oil.

 

[Königsberg]

That's what I've being doing. Upgrading mostly those that I need meaning my generals are really low and I'll probably never get close to maxing them with one blacksmith. Same goes for tactics.
