Cheaters/Bugs/Hack ???

[Rollin]

@Harlems369th are there more and more cheaters in the top 1-20??? felt everyone has Permanent Nighthwakshangar or a normal hangar and Fortified Strongpoint building active??? and alot old Eisenhowers with 7 ranges... what's happening right now? It wasn't that noticeable a few weeks ago

 

[B like Big Bug]

you can buy famous"server" for unlimited sh troops and evwnt buildings.just doesn't support spaciall Artifact anymore.

Can Nexon not finally remove this shit from Domi ?

when you report them for cheating they always say "we didn't find anything"

 

[oddin]

the external server is back. We fought against the known chinese alliance with the red leaf and they are still cheating through coalition boosting!!
For heaven's sake, why are they still in this game and not permanently banned?

They could not win against us, yet they used 4x eisen level 90 with 6 range

 

[Rollin]

I already thought so..... noticed that Domi feels wrong again in the world wars against top 1-20 guilds/players. @Harlems369th do you have a plan what to do about it?

 

[Rafar]

Unfortunately the incidence of hack/bug/apk cheating has increased exponentially.

I believe that BHG is working on this as it is in the company's own interest to eliminate these cheating mechanisms.
However, a firm and tough response must be given to those who exploit these mechanisms. But not only that... there must be a fair and satisfactory response for the affected alliances.
Cheating players must be warned and severely punished.
Alliances that benefited from cheating must lose the glories they eventually gained in a dispute under these conditions.
Alliances that play fair must have the result, in case of defeat, reverted to victory and receive all the glories in dispute in that war.

I've had a ticket open for 15 days without resolution for a case in which there is no doubt that half of the players in the opposing alliance were cheating.

The most common cheats seen in world wars are the Maori coalition bug and server/apk that duplicates troops and buildings before each WW battle.

And unfortunately it's not just top 20 alliances in the ranking... Many players are using it in some alliances that have any ranking, whether top 20, 200 or 2000

I have seen your previous posts. You are very disgruntled and complain all the time. There is an extremely simple and practical solution to this problem: if you are not happy and you don't like the game do like me: look for a game you like. I love you too buddy.

 

[King Crimson]

The solution is simple: don't bother with wars and you won't encounter these loser alliances full of losers.

As always, please report Players you suspect of cheating to our CS team here with as much information as possible. This includes video, screenshots, time/date of encounter, etc. The more information the team has the better they can shut down a cheat/exploit and ensure variations of them are accounted for. We continue to monitor and take cheating seriously, but we, unfortunately, cannot divulge specifics regarding what we do to combat cheating.

Reports won't always receive an immediate response, please keep in mind these things take time to investigate before taking action.

 

[Rollin]

I've already seen these players after 5 minutes ? there are hundreds more and they all have a Nighthawkhangar and Fortified Strongpoint building active FOR WEEKS. I would love to expose all guild names and players publicly, but that's forbidden. Ridiculous and any guild that has players like that (a lot) should be ashamed of supporting such scum @Harlems369th I don't even talk about the 100 EHs per world war... I reported it to the support ingame, just so that you can see for yourself what i mean. Maybe it helps

 

[Rafar]

I find it curious and strange that every time someone comes to the forum to file complaints against alleged irregularities, some players are against the complainant.

It's not always the same people, but it's always the same answers...
"Don't mind that",
"Don't mind the wars",
"What you're reporting doesn't make sense as they can be purchased in the app" ,
"Go report it to CS and try your luck",
"I didn't see anything wrong, you who cry a lot because you lost",
etc, etc, etc.

It's horrible to see how some people don't care about cheating and make a point of criticizing anyone who dares to report it.
Personal feuds should not overrule fair play.
Selfishness should not prevail when dealing with violations.

Despite BHG's pronouncement that it takes cheating seriously, unfortunately CS often makes it seem like it doesn't.
Responses take time, little is explained and most of the time there is not even a compensation measure for those who were unfairly affected.

So people post here as a form of appeal and plea for help, as no one likes to feel cheated by cheaters. And unfortunately this is happening again more and more often.

Every time the CS service fails, the cheaters are doubly victorious and the harmed doubly wronged.

@Rafar don't listen to these forum trolls.

I am one of the best players in Deff in this game and I will not argue with these people. I know what the game is missing or do wrong and say it directly what I think as a game criticism. I was not wrong that the fighter tactic is/was too strong. it feels like 90% figthers are playing

I’ve always argued for stronger defensive bases. Even made numerous YouTube videos showcasing how ridiculously easy it was for attackers to clear 3D.

I will say though… you can’t complain about every meta composition. It reminds me of when everyone complained about Ike’s range being too strong- that was nerfed. Then Helis were too strong- I believe these were nerfed behind the scenes because they don’t feel as powerful regardless of having additional buffs in council chambers. Now fighters are too strong?!? Come on… now this is getting a bit ridiculous… there will always be a meta for attack styles and yes the majority of players will start using that meta once they figure out the effectiveness.

Meanwhile… generals spawn at a ridiculous range which was a screw up but left in game. EDST is essentially a dead stat for attackers ever since the committee bonus was fixed (an attacker needs 20% more edst than a defender needs for it to even be worth increasing minimal time on spawn rates now). Zhukov now attacks back when he is attacked after being rallied (yes this is a huge nerf).

After the season ends it will make fighters less efficient, complaining about how strong they are now is very misleading.

The tactics were very often EXTREMELY strong, so strong that the deff had no WAY to do anything about it. was that the case with helicopters, Eisenhower and also mortars ? As a Deff player, I would like to be able to defend myself and not go under no matter what I do? Yes, I have that expectation.

fighters are just too strong this season, am I wrong? after the season it is still the strongest tactic but you have a certain chance to block it? a very good fighter player will defeat almost every 3Dler even after the season

maybe it's because of the cheated Nighthawkhangar and Fortified Strongpoint building that feels like every guild Players have active for weeks ?? there are 2 additional hunters and one more TT i cant block it… and i can do and do what i want, i fall in 2:20-2:30

Currently there are 3 strong tactics, Helis/Fighters and Mortar and it's good, you can play with all 3 successfully? I would find some tactics good for buffs like bombers or factory troops in general ? but don't overdo it.

 

[The Joker]

This is not avoidable. BHG/Nexon needs to periodically change the effectiveness of troops in order to sell crowns, artifacts, legendaries and troops.
Let's not forget that we are playing a pay to win game and hoping for a stable unit configuration is unfortunately unrealistic.

I am also a defender and have the same problems.
Attackers outnumber defenders and they want to have fun so there is always a unit that gives them a chance to win and feel good .
The defender can only spend, spend a lot, to get results that anyway very unlikely to make him unbeatable or nearly so.

It would be very nice if for a few months the game would change and it would be difficult to make results for a striker but I honestly don't think it will ever happen.

 

[oddin]

I wonder if CoC ever made such radical changes to their troops.... (like helis or mortars)

Yeah I know. Rest assured…

I think the confusion lies in your terminology. Can you specify what you mean by “tactics”? Typically tactics refer to War Tactics (protect, sabotage, etc) or Troop Tactics (TT), but I think you just mean the troops themselves from barracks/airstrip?

Something to keep in mind is that attackers will always have the advantage no matter what because they have so many pay to win options to help them (buildings, TTs, and drones), meanwhile defender accounts are much cheaper to maintain and only have to buy buildings. Given this situation, of course defenders will be taken down.

I’ve suggested since drones came out that defenders need pay to win drones that can be used on defense to level the playing field. I’m talking about OP drones that are consumable every war and create effects like area of effect slow to all troops including invading airstrip, or radar jamming that makes buildings in the area not targetable, or defensive betrayal drones that betray invading troops. The potential possibilities for consumable defensive drones are an untapped aspect of the game that could really turn the tides in wars for defenders. Sadly, it’s fallen on deaf ears at BHG.

I'm glad they didn't, because the idea of paying even more to win is horrible.

The app already has numerous ways to monetize. It's a success story and it's no longer due to the low rate of active players compared to other gaming platforms.

Anyway, you are already discussing something that has nothing to do with the subject of this topic, which is even what makes defenses useless and reduces BHG's revenue.

Exactly. It's bad enough that people need to buy troops or tactics or buildings to win battles in a game that's designed for people to win battles.

I don't understand all the talk about wanting to defend better than others can attack. This game is called Dominations for a reason - it's not Defendernations.
If, by some arguments, defense needs a boost and they want more options to defeat an attack, wouldn't that then make it harder when they attack and by definition make it harder for them to gain resources?? This doesn't make sense to me.
Unless the people calling for stronger defensive options are the top tier bases and don't need resources ... in which case you have zero sympathy from me - and I'm Drone lvl 380. You are the smallest percentage in the game and don't seem to appreciate that other levels need to dominate battles in order to gain rss. That's how this - and every other attacking game - is designed, isn't it ??!
If you want an advantage then maybe BHG can make specific Info or Drone age boosts just for you - but calling for a defense that beats an attack is counter-intuitive to the basic design of the game.
