Getting attacked like crazy!

[dbukalski]

Can you show me where you felt he offended you so badly that you feel the need to call him dumb and be disrespectful? I've been lurking on these forums for a while and I appreciate your contributions immensely I feel like you are going overboard. Go back , re read his responses.. He's being pretty civil imo

"I'm getting attacked more often and attacking is more difficult. Defense is buffed so attacking is harder. As for attacks against me, somehow I'm in a queue that makes sure I'm attacked alot more often. Not sure how or why your confused"............i took the im confused as slightly uppity but ur probably right. Im having too much fun at his expense for that small comment. So i apologize funken

Now they just need to fix the Revenge feature. It cannot be a coincidence that all the players i can revenge on cannot be attacked. I have tried at various times (even at odd hours) and in numerous consecutive days. At least, that is my experience after the update.

 

[dbukalski]

Revenge isnt broken. The reason u cant get a successful revenge is because players are either online...or as soon as they log off theg get attacked peace treated.

 

[Redgar]

Usually, people give me peace treaty or take some products I always have max or medals I don't care about, so I don't even have to revenge for ))) still didn't do it not even once lol. Oh, crystals was an issue higher on medals, but not now.

 

[firedancer]

Feels the same for me. I still can raid bases but just the train times are taking longer because the troop all die nowadays. No more horsies to play with.

Still getting attacked and defending. IA players usually clean sweep my base.

Being able to attack with better AI was necessary, specially for this in enlightenment age and above.

Theres so many things wrong with this quote im not sure where to begin. here we go....when u say ur theory of a "special que" is the ONLY thing that explains increased attacks against u. What u should say is its the only theory YOU can came up with that explains increased attacks. What YOU came up with is a ridiculous quasi conspiracy theory about the man holding active players down. There are many reasons why funkin is being attacked a lot and every one of them is considerably more believable than the concoction u came up with. Trying to explain to u that industrial release = more active player base = more attacks at all medal ranges feels like trying to explain why the sky is blue to a child. I tell them its the suns rays bouncing off atoms which absorbs the color spectrum except blue which gets reflected to your eye. He stares back at me and declares the sky is blue because unicorns made it blue and its the ONLY theory that can explain it. I chuckle give him a hug and send him outside to play with the other children. Your that child funken....just in case u decide im confused again .....before the update maxed out enlightenment players were hoarding gold with nothing to spend it on. That massive reserve of gold at the top has been depleted on walls, buildings. Medals trickle their way upwards. Starting with the inactive 200 medal players who feed the vine upwards. The gold at the top feeds its way downwards. Besides players having to scramble harder to make gold. Medal farmers are scrambling to keep up with their defense medal losses. You have players who reactivated because of industrial update. Overall u end up with a frenzy of attacking all up and down the food chain. Besides ALL that. Ur medal range vs medal count matters. If ur at the top of ur medal league everyone in ur medal league is gonna earn tons of medals for defeating you. On flip side all ull see is 1 medal victories. Ur defense vs ur storage will encourage or discourage people to attack you. Ur inactive friend probably has low storage, towards the bottom of his league. Also actual league matters. Empire has all the active players hitting battle button spam. 200 medals can probably go for a while between attacks....all that plus other things i havent thought of are why attacks happen.....or we can go with your conspiracy theory

Ok

Lets resolve this .. 1st I didn't read this quote because I have my theory and I'm sticking with it.

I could really care less if my theory is right or wrong. I have no desire to debate this

Yeah ur right Funken. Ur definitely in a dominations special olympics que

its much more simple then that guys...

The league you're in is representing the goal of the attackers.

low-medals (less then 1200) , you find yourself in a league of resource hunters, which will attack if resources are easy to concur, they don't care about medals at all.
high-medals (1200 and up), you'll find the medal hunters, these guys will attack for a sleazy medal, but also for medals with resources.

depending on how your base is constructed, you will not be attacked.

The longest period that nobody attacked me is 11 days, I had reached maxed-out medieval, and already had nothing to spent my food on, so an successful attack would mean 200K food or even more, cause my farm where piling out also.
At the moment I'm waiting for the last hours of gunpowder upgrade, and I'm still not attacked, while I'm completely filled, an attack would give a loot of 300-350 k on food and gold, and a huge number of trade goods.
Still i'm not attacked, so why ?.... well I've lowered my medals to < 600, only resource hunters, but they probably think it is all in my market and mill, cause they are piling out. Walls around them and all defense building around that wall, and walls around those buildings (donut construction), somehow, it scares looters off, and I do not get attacks.

To be honest, I'll only attack when there is a good change of getting a lot of loot, with either a small amount of raiders, or with a complete run over of a village.
So I'm a resource hunter, which is good for me, but not for the villages that have their resources badly protected. I dont care about a medal, so I have done raids with loot over 300K, and left the village without peace treaty, so they could be attacked straight away...again and again....


2-3 weeks ago I was above the 1200 medals, and got attacked multiple times a day, also a lot of resource hunters, which tried to get into the market/mill area, and if they did. left me with a victory and no peace treaty.

To prevent that, I've lowered my medals, and voila, attacks disappeared like snow in the sun. The lower the medals, the less attacks.


So if you trying to go up the medal ladder, you would surely have a base design that protects your town center, but then you will have less defense on resources, with a high medal count, you will be flooded by attackers, cause if there is a medal to be gained, with loot on the side, all medal hunters will go for that combination.

 

[Funken_A]

Yeah ur right Funken. Ur definitely in a dominations special olympics que

obviously you have an issue with me
please place me on your ignore list... I really don't appreciate the back handed crap

 

[Tickling]

Not to beat a dead horse, but I'll second what another poster already said, your comments toward Funken are uncalled for Dbukalski. Are you having domestic trouble or something?

 

[Tickling]

Back to the OP, I've had a SHARP decline in the number of times I'll be attacked starting several weeks ago. I was at 1300 medals and hardly got attacked maybe once per day, never used shields if I got them. Right now I'm maintaining around 500-700 and I'm actually getting attacked MORE, maybe twice per day.

 

[Tickling]

Commented to add: I'm gunpowder and always have full food and at least 1 mil gold.

 

[dbukalski]

Nope, no domestic troubles. Havig fun the way i like. I enjoy making fun of stupid comments. I dont put people on ignore. U are my entertainment funken. All with ur conspiracy theories its my fave

 

[demonsmooth]

I like this thread . . . it was very entertaining!

P.S. BHG please fix "exit game" issue. I want to see some defensive wins, nothing annoys me more than logging in and seeing my traps tripped and no log as to why. 4-5 times every day. I am spending way too much gold on resetting traps when I could be spending the gold on upgrades. PLEASE FIX!
