I'm Out.. Best to the rest

[Funken_A]

Yesterday was way to frustrating for me, as has been the last couple of months with this game. but yesterday I was attacked like never before. Before yesterday I couldn't tell you the last time a player was able to get 100% victory on me, but yesterday 5 players did and one was a lower aged player. They all rolled me hard... like I said before yesterday I had a defense queue filled with players who couldn't take more than 10k total resources from me, and those who got more barely could take 100k total. Yet yesterday they all brought multiple tactics and multiple blessings... Heck before yesterday even players who brought tactics never took me for that much and I have had way bigger loot that what I had this time. Even players who did not 4 or 5 star me were all of sudden able to peel through my base more than before

I started yesterday with about 970k gold. I was losing loot to raiders and by this morning I had 580k gold. I went backwards 400k and that was while raiding between peace treaties. It takes 1/2 hour to brew a decent army and I'm not going to baby sit my device for 1/2 hour to avoid being attacked.. Before yesterday this was never an issue as I described above... Not sure why the sudden change

I can not seem to be able to attack and keep troops unless I use multipe tactics and multiple blessings. The issue is I can not keep up with the trade goods needed, and tactics take very long to brew, so being able to progress at a pace that I enjoy is unobtainable for me.

All I know is when somethng becomes this frustrating its no longer fun, and that is where i am.

I am leaving the game with a heavy heart as I am the top player in my alliance , and really enjoyed the concept of Dominations.... However I come to realize that I am just not good enough of a gamer to play this game. I'll just assume that this game is for highly skilled players and not for an average player like myself who just wants to have some fun.


Take care all....

don't go! Maybe you just had a string of bad luck, see if it happens 1 more time!

 

[Greeneyes2120]

Well it's certainly not for quitters. Dedication is the key, my friend. Good luck!

 

[Redgar]

You should make it till training blessing and switch to france or british. You'd not have issues with loot. Good luck anyways. 8 days of barraks upgrades in IA is not a joke. It may be the point where I may quit too. Those times are weird.

 

[dbukalski]

8 day training times is no big deal. 3 buildings x 4 workers going at same time. Library and blacksmith all these upgrades give u plenty of upgrading stuff. And u have walls to grind for.

 

[Redgar]

Dbuk, offtopic, how much tank ia upgrade costs?

 

[firedancer]

Wished you could stay on much longer but all the best and hope you found a less frustrating game.

See ya funkn. Sad to see another good player go. But to me, what's killing the game isn't build timers, it's Cheaters.

 

[Porcupine]

Yeahhh that's the spirit congratsss. That's the spirit they want you to have to steal your time and money, my friend. Good luck!

 

[David Pasquinel]

Sad to see another fine member lose his temper. Hope that you regain your patience with the game and come back to us.

What surprises me is that just one person came here saying sheet like "mimimi, this game is about being attacked and attack 20h a day like a meth-head, this is the only right way to be played".

 

[dbukalski]

Tank is 7 mil food to upgrade

So long, Funk. Sorry to see ha go. I like your avatar. Pretty soon this forum will be full of nothing but members raving about how perfect DomiNations is.....

 

[Chris Coley]

YOU would suggest that....please no infraction...I was only kidding angel

Funken - although I'm not a big poster or follower of this game (more of a social player here), I speak as a very experienced and highly rated player from many other games of this type. You may already be aware of this fact, but all players reach a point of progress in MMORPGs that is passed only with an extremely high cost of either money or time. It sounds as though you've reached that "saturation point" in Dominations, so the choice is either to move on to another game, or simply start over with a new and/or secret identity. Either way, I wish you the best of luck, and fear I may be following your footsteps soon.

 

[Redgar]

Oh thanks, finally

 

[MadFury]

I agree with what linkslayer is saying. But I can say with confidence that the game as been altered to be harder and harder with every update. Besides the obvious problem of an uncountable number of cheaters. Which have made the game near impossible these last few months. Every update has had a ridiculous buff to defense or a serious nerf to troops in almost every category, worst of all DPS. So if you feel like the game is to difficult to progress I imagine it will only get worse.

Good luck to you Funken.

Funken, try switching to raiders. You don't say what age or medals, but when they nerfed HC, I was losing, couldn't get a mixed army of troops, archers, HC, bombards & healers to work any more. That was in GP so switched to all raiders or 6 footies, 3 wall miners and the rest raiders. With raiders you lose them all anyway, a complete rebuild takes 15 mins or around 4 mins now with EA Training Blessing. Don't need tactics, mercs, blessings, generals or ally troops - having them as backup is nice though. GP and above sappers and raiders can take on L165 max walls, and there are some crappy designed bases up there.

Then basically find bases with loot (or medals or trade goods) where you can breach the walls and take the TC.

Medals are more important for defence. I'd already climbed to 1200 (get the Achievement crowns), but once past 1000 folk attacking are primarily after medals so 9/10 settle for knocking over the TC (leave it outside your walls). Less than 10% try for a 5*. Playing below 800 medals, attackers only want one thing - your resources.

So this game has gone from frustrating to a bit of fun again, until they nerf raiders, as nerfing seems to be the clumsy way the developers balance this game
