As with most new Age releases, new buildings, building upgrades, traps, troops and research of all sorts will be released over time, with new updates. It's always like that.

I don't understand so much outrage about this. And although some don't believe it, they do it planned to be exactly that way for several reasons.

I believe that a more detailed advance communication, explaining the content that will be launched is a good idea. It would be a way to make the entire community aware of what is to come and perhaps attract more new players, but communication/advertising has never been BHG's strong point, although I see that they are advancing in some areas, others have not even left the Medieval Age.

It would be very interesting for BHG to have content disseminators on various platforms, including videos from content producers and also its own content. Everyone could address new and sensitive themes in the game before and after each update.
 
I am just happy that 1/2 the game didn’t break! Also, for a casual player, defense is already OP. Maxed L428 bases with full blessings are already a pain. I don’t know why more people don’t just make easy loot bases. All 3 of my accounts are wide open for looters.
 
Does this Age comes with new wonders? Drone Age didn't so I thought this one would. When can we craft this new councilor? Oh, and... can we have another council slot?
As far as I can tell I think in Drone and in Automation age wonders have been replaced by the new buildings, Drone Center and Manufactory. But that cannot replace Uni, Library, Museum and other deficiencies

I already know your work and congratulations on what you do. What's missing is for BHG to provide assistance to content producers like you and others. The company also needs to improve its own communication and advertising to its player base and also to potential new players. One thing complements the other and I see that in this aspect BHG invests and dedicates very little effort. It's true that the redesign of the forum and Harlems activity was a great improvement, but still very timid compared to what it could be.
 
Fixed the issue where the Burj Al Arab bonus wouldn’t apply for each house within range of this Wonder.
  • This wonder will now correctly apply the -1% upgrade time reduction for each house within its radius.
Same as before, just reduce few hours, not the correct upgrade time.

No update to report, unfortunately, but the team is aware that this still isn't working as intended.
Thank you for your response. I hope to receive updates regarding the repair of the Burj Al Arab and request that these be made public.
 
What’s going on with the dominations victory bonus. At 4.5k medals the bonus is terrible. Used to get millions per victory now like maybe 100k
 
Aight updated and reached to automatone age upgraded few buildings and done other upgrades as well, the thing is its useless much more than the drone age, first it has no unique troop thing, they all look the same but name still displays, second generals cap became level 110!!!, third still no tactic and coalition upgrade/update, fourth units became captains heavy tank, riftleman etc. and few spearhead mk2 which is confusing?, planes became stronger and more modern, also no update for university and library but most importantly next age is robotic age!! which is madness i think, of course there are 10th house and a new sam battery but some buildings dont get update, like museum, council, roads and walls. tested with my main account which is level 387. one last thing rise of nations had 8 ages that starts from ancient ends in information for me information is and should be the last age you hear about this long upgrade times more often now people also need time discount besides price discount, if not at least just cut the time by half so people can update faster as you see in comments they all mocking the ridiculus upgrade times, some even costs 21 days/3 weeks!!! even if you do this there are still ways to get money from players like troop tactics, legendary artifacts, council leaders and now this manufactory hope someone from BHG reads this because situation is much worse than before.
 
Looting has become significantly harder for auto age players. I can't quite understand the reason...
is it because of the reduced domination bonus against drone age bases?
is it because everyone loots and most bases are empty?
But I seem to struggle with day to day loot.

The new VIP is much better than the previous offers. Well done

For me it's simple mathematics which pretty much makes Drone and Auto very hard compared to lower ages.
With each age up defense gets approx 8-10% boost but offense gets approx 5-7% boost (if they're lucky). So basically it's 3 steps forward for defense, 2 steps forward for offense. For one or two ages that's fine but after three or four ages it starts to add up as 3 vs 2 quickly becomes 6 vs 4, 9 vs 6, 12 vs 8, etc, etc.
And here we are at Auto Age.
And some people still complain defense needs a boost ... 🤦‍♂️

in truth game died long ago most high level/old players left most ages are useless even rise of nations had 8 ages so information age shouldve been the last, drone, auto and robotic ages are the most unnecessary. as for the defense i remember that 4-8 planes take out any building easily like about 50% of the buildings lol now thanks to museum, council and university researchs defense is better at this point and some bases cant be destroyed without using elite/premium troop tactic. also i remember that i played this game for years (till defense update and drone at least) without using the need of any troop tactic, but right now only can do this in multiplayer war, for world war its necessary to use.
 
Para mim, é uma matemática simples que torna o Drone e o Auto muito difíceis em comparação com idades mais baixas.
A cada aumento de idade, a defesa recebe um aumento de aproximadamente 8 a 10%, mas o ataque recebe um aumento de aproximadamente 5 a 7% (se tiver sorte). Basicamente são 3 passos à frente para a defesa e 2 passos à frente para o ataque. Por uma ou duas eras tudo bem, mas depois de três ou quatro eras começa a somar, pois 3 contra 2 rapidamente se torna 6 contra 4, 9 contra 6, 12 contra 8, etc, etc.
E aqui estamos na Auto Age.
E algumas pessoas ainda reclamam que a defesa precisa de um impulso...🤦‍♂️
Concordo com você que atualmente a defesa tende a ir na frente do ataque e isso é preocupante.
Na minha opinião, o jogo alcançou um bom equilíbrio entre ataque e defesa no final da Era dos Drones. O jogo em geral ficou mais “difícil” para todos, tanto no Multiplayer quanto na WW.

Entre 2020 e o início de 2022 o jogo foi bastante favorável ao ataque. Muitas guerras foram decididas pelo critério de desempate temporal, pois atingiram pontuações máximas. Há pouco mais de 18 meses a BHG começou a fazer acréscimos para aumentar a defesa, o que para mim levou o jogo a um ponto interessante onde reduziu os resultados das guerras com base em critérios de desempate.
No entanto, não foi apenas a defesa que melhorou... O equilíbrio das tropas permitiu aos jogadores atacar de forma mais eficaz com helicópteros e morteiros/artilharia.

Pessoalmente, não vejo problemas em terminar uma guerra abaixo das pontuações máximas. As alianças que possuem um melhor grupo de aliados e estratégias continuam a vencer. Resta saber como será a Era da Automação daqui para frente, considerando também a chegada da Manufatura. Se a defesa continuar avançando, tudo ficará muito mais complicado, inclusive no modo Multiplayer.
Espero que a Manufatura possa abrir o leque de possibilidades para novos combos de ataque, permitindo reduzir o impacto das bases defensivas focando na defesa contra apenas 1 ou 2 combos de ataque.
No meu entendimento, o grande problema do ataque é o fato de algumas tropas não possuírem reforços adequados para se tornarem competitivas além da discrepância mencionada sobre os percentuais de evolução entre ataque e defesa em cada nova Era após as recentes adições do defensivo setor.
