Battles Appropriateness

[DaDi5]

First, I want to say that I very much enjoy this game. I’ve dropped BANK on this game and don’t mind.

However, I’ve noticed mismatches when battling other players. I’m noticing it more now being Industrial Age and being matched with Global Age. These matches are not fun. I always lose due to the other player having resources I don’t yet have or own.

could you, would you, please change this glitch PURDY PLEASE!!!??

thank you!

You can always find another battle, you don't need to battle against global ages bases.

What is your medal count? If you are being matched against high level players, maybe your medals are too high?

there are a lot more high level players at low medals now because of the rebalance. Maybe try going lower than them

Also, you get better rewards for attacking bases above your age. I am industrial age and I love getting matched against GA. The domination bonus is great

Or you could just stop griping and accept it as a way to challenge yourself & improve, and move on.
Or have you failed to notice all this time that you've also been able to attack bases one age below you?
Or were you one of those noble players that always 'nexted' when you came across an inferior base, I wonder?

If you're actually flattening GA bases with IA in MP congratulations. I guess you like attacking twice a day?

I keep my medals below 800, so when I run into a GA base they usually have Classical or GPA defenses. I usually only lose a tank or two and some infantry.

The training blessing also helps a lot. Even if I lose my whole army, I only have to wait 20 minutes or spend about 20 crowns to attack again. The only thing that really hurts is losing my planes

I find it interesting that this thread is in Forum rules and the first that I find, because this is why I came to the forums.

I doubt that it will change, the game is too old for that, but it will eventually be the reason that I will tire of this game and delete it like I have any number of other time wasters that I've loaded in the past. Some were P2W, or others, say Empires and Allies, that like this game made you battle people based on medal count and not advancement level.

These days I'm a Global Age player that hovers in the range of 2000ish medals, keeps all of my workers busy, and refuses to intentionally lose to shed medals. (I did buy 3 starter packs over the last yr or two) The problem is that I routinely get attacked by players with 75 to 100 higher star (tech) counts, and when I get to about 2050 medals the only battle options I get are AA or higher, and I'm going to lose those. . That is a broken system. Battles should be based on tech, not medals.

Call it what you want. Just pointing out that it will eventually cause me to delete the game, and I'm pretty sure I'm not alone. You can enjoy knocking out my derelict base for a while till my medal count drops me lower than even the sandbaggers will go. .

MP looks good when you keep your medals in a League where you find opponents that meet your goals ... challenge, farming and so on ...

 

[joelegiao]

The main problem of this game its not MP, you can manage that by dropping medals....the main problem is the wars matchmaking, that yes it will make a lot of people leave the game.

Being offered global bases when you're industrial isn't a glitch. At every age you can be offered one age below you to one age above you. Hit skip or drop medals so you get easier global bases to attack, as others have suggested.

Higher medals gives you better league rewards, but comes with an obvious increase in difficulty. Sounds like some players want the best rewards, but none of the risk. That makes it a fun game for you??? Really??
