I've been playing online games for years and have always felt that something was missing from gameplay( competition, strategy, design, etc), however, DomiNations is the very first game I've played that blends them together perfectly. I don't know who is in charge of game design but they must be a genius. The battles are great with the reconfigured AI and I really appreciate the reworked medal system. Keep up the good work BHG and Become M! I love it!!!!!!

I think it's fishy several other new accounts praising their company are immediately put into 'Waiting for Approval' subgroup, meanwhile it took them 3 days to activate my forum account, and 2 days to approve each of my other posts. Probably won't post on this forum anymore since by the time my posts are approved the thread I posted to is on page 2.

It is the second time, the first postings with a positive ode. It'd be total bottom for nexon to hire ppl like this, so I wouldn't accuse them right away. Even tho it's very much alike, may be they're just new. It would be great elizabeth if you share with us what age/lvl you are and how much money you donated into the game )))

If ur a new player who recently started stone age. Welcome and have fun. The early ages of all such games are the best. Unfortunately the AI for heavy cav is soooo broken that they are unusable. Which means ur either brand new to the game and havent figured that out. Or you work for nexon. In which case they should wait to send their propaganda employees after the next update when it might be possible that the AI works

Oh yeah, wall miners AI is broken too. So u never know if they will make a whole, and combined with broken heavy cav AI you basically have malfunctioning tanks(bullet sponges) and malfunctioning wall breakers. Which puts a lot of the combat pressure on units which werent meant to absorb damage or break walls. So at high levels of gameplay the successful attacks include 2x lvl20 generals, 4 tactics, mercenaries. Thats all i ever see. Which means their either heavy gem buyers or gem cheaters

If ur a nexon employee let them know that the next update notes dont even scratch the surface of all the AI problems. The patch notes mention cav will not go full retard attacking walls. The patch notes dont mention wall miners not exploding 30% of the time. Or cav not being able to walk between buildings causing them to take crazy path around city. Or cav not breaking through the wall u deploy them in front of. But preferring walls that are either closer to where u rally them too. I deploy them where i deploy them for a reason. Based on overall layout of enemy base defenses and wall structure. When the cav AI decides it wants to break a wall somewhere else it always means heavy casualties. The cav AI seems to obsess with road/walls. And walls that are closest to rally target

Welcome to the game Elizabeth. Hopefully they'll have it fixed before you go in to your first battle or upgrade.

"Elizabeth_Jones"?...sounds even less legit than "Aussie guy". Amazing how after one of the worse updates in this game, these new forum members feel so compelled to post away with such sugar-glazed nonsense. These postings come at a time when half of my alliance has quit and are moving on to other games. There is all round pessimism that within 24 hours of releasing the Industrial Age, we will see a whole bunch of maxed up bases with level 30 generals and Zeppelins raiding our bases.

The game do feel nice when you just got started. After 3 months and advancing in Age, then it is a different story.

You showed yourself with the medal comment lol. Tell us, Elizabeth-Jones? What is so great about the system. It was bad enough before when you couldn't find a levity player with a medal reward worth the trouble, but now? Between the weakened Enlightenment troops, goofy AI and severe loss penalties. Which of those things do you find so satisfactory?

I was having fun before when i started playing this game since last year October 2014..That time there was no hackers..Bugs are already there eversince but they are not fixed till now.Inaccurate replay is already there and no one win defense eversince you will just see open traps.what I hate is they continue to release this game globally without fixing those two major issues. i lost treaty for the whole month of april that triggerred me to join this forum.That made me realize that customer service really sucks..I ignored it before when i noticed some of them dont talk in a professional manner there are times i get cs rep who had manners and treated me well but as the days passed by i keep on getting unprofessional rep who doesnt have reading comprehension.

Also, those newbies never response on their game stats, how long they play, etc. real new players usually write: I am early medieval, enjoying the game so far, blah-blah. They're more interested to post their layout too. So if we fall in the conspiracy, I think hired mods just wanted to show their work influence on forum in some report, so some of their friends could easily help them. Nothing much, but more cheating in such case. Anyways, just because there are some real happy players and max walls legit players, let's accept this as is, so noone gets banned for nothing. I am more than sure that after initial enjoyment of new content, we'll get back to the discussion of broken state of the game directly with Tim rofl )))

Booquia, I agree with you 100%. I started playing this game in December 2014. I only came on these forums in January, because I experienced some serious game issues, such as being locked out of my DomiNations account for a week. The only response I received from Nexon was "we are aware of your issue, but have no fix!". I found more answers and sympathy on this forum from other players than from any Nexon employee.

Careful Booquia, I got a temporary ban for a post like this...apparently it's called "Thread Hijacking"...made me feel like a terrorist!
