Ok, so the goals may be doable, but it seems odd the jump for global age players:
Industrial has to get 3,500 defenders
Global has to get DOUBLE industrial: 7,000 defenders
Atomic has to get 7,500 defenders

Not sure about the other ages. Maybe people can fill in.

BUT, it doesn't make sense. Who approved this? Do you guys check the numbers before rolling something out? Why such a big jump for global players? Do you want to discourage players that at global and up from playing because they are advancing so fast? OR, do you realize that because upgrade times are so long that you thought increasing numbers in an event would keep them playing? Did someone in the office FINALLY make it to industrial and didn't want the event to be too hard for them? TinSoldier Nb4powerup

Also, why are we being rewarded for killing people?

Oh please...It is every doable even 7500 I have to get. Stop your whining. Drop medals like a mofo and start tearing up those easy bases.

As for asking why are we are rewarded for killing people....this is a war game not Candy Crush Saga.

In CW age it's 7900 defenders. Wow, a whole extra 400 defenders for me to kill with my CW troops, however will I do that?
I agree, there's something wrong with these figures. Either this is planned and they don't think it's an issue or they're oblivious.
And, to answer your last question, you're rewarded every time you attack a base. ;)

Most of the events I haven't specifically gone out of my way to complete. I don't want it messing with my routine.

poop_ I read it very clearly. Its whining. Instead of complaining you probably should be raiding. Heck I haven't even bothered looking at my progress until now. 1000 down of 7500 and I haven't been on my serious raiding routine. When I do start my normal raiding tomorrow when I get a free worker and completed library research I'll be done tomorrow In a few hours tops.

Really it isn't that hard. 😤

I will quote myself and maybe this time you will be able to read it correctly:
"Ok, so the goals may be doable, but it seems odd the jump for global age players"

If you still don't get it, try sounding it out. I believe in you!

poop_ but you are here again complaining. Shouldn't you be raiding right now if you're so worried about it?

I’m pretty sure the killing people question was a joke but that one flew right over your head

Well poop_ if it is so doable why do you insist on complaining about it. Whilst you were crying about it here begging for Nexon to make things easier...I just finished it in a couple of hours.

So sorry you spend more time here crying about the game wanting things to be handed over to you for free. Your time would be better spent in actually playing the game.

I kinda see the logic in the leap in number of kills needed. There’s a huge increase in offensive power when you go from EA to IA to GA. For ages past that, there’s only a small difference in offensive power for AA, and CWA and correspondingly only a small increase in the kill requirement. I think IA and GA have the most new content of any of the ages.

Thank you for reading and responding appropriately.

I'm not sure I agree though, but I could be wrong. Isn't it really about the bases you are matched with in MP and able to attack? Do they spawn more troops? I guess you get bunkers in IA. And, the number of defenders from ambush traps increase in IA or GA.

I also think that you get that big of a jump in offensive power between IA and GA. Troop space doesn't increase from IA to GA and if you have uni research done in IA, your troops are pretty powerful.

AND, as a person who has multiple accounts, I have to say it is MUCH easier to attack in IA and lower just because of the lack of silos and the numerous rushed and dead bases.


I am just curious how Nexon picks the numbers for their events because at initial glance it doesn't make sense.

Global and AA buildings spawn a lot more defenders and there’s some research in these levels that will add to the spawn. Don’t just think about obvious sources like tank depots and garrisons that get additional defenders it’s also ally defenders in TC, forest defenders, ambush traps, resistance defenders, SH defenders in war, it all adds up and It starts ramping up in Global age and solidifies in Atomic. There’s a reason you don’t hear people complaining about tank spam in Industrial bases. Since there’s more opportunity to get defenders then it makes sense they made the goal higher. If I remember correctly in previous events like this it was the higher ages that completed it faster. They must have some stats that showed the goal needed to be moved up. That’s my guess anyway.

My number as a CWA player was 7900, and I completed it in a couple days of normal play. Not sure what the big deal is...
