I’m at a loss for words to express my disappointment today.....logging into the game , a game that has been almost destroyed by the far too strong defensive boosts .....what do I see...a discount on upgrading walls ( which were going to be the focus of stage 5 ....seems stage 5 hasn’t actually been stopped after all , just made a payable part of the rebalance project ), a chance to buy more defensive stuff, including a defensive Flame thrower building .....who asked for more defensive buildings to destroy attacks ?
Okay, so the defensive buffing is still going on despite most of the reactions being that defensive buffs were already way too much .
A few small sops to offensive stuff, for expletive who have plenty of loot or crowns ... like the chance to buy an upgrade to Machine gunners or HT mk7 at a discount ....not a natural buff but a chance to buy with loot or crowns etc....and something that will takes weeks to complete , so you only get the chance to do one or two at most before the offer ends as each takes over a week ......
meanwhile the defensive stuff applies immediately because it a money buy .
oh, and you can also spend money on troop cards on the way to getting the flamethrower building .....well thanks , but no thanks ...I’m not spending any more on the game to buy troops that will die before getting anywhere much in one or maybe two attacks.....
you can can also spend real money on the crown dock , which is offering double the usual rate .....but still not enough to do much with ....and I’m not spending on that either
I am already upgrading to a HT mk7 , so that’s useless to me ...upgrading the Machine gunner ( with a derisory range of 3 )is also pretty useless as he only really takes on Foot troops ...not so much the multitudinous tanks that defend bases ...he can fire over walls , which is no big deal now that building have been boosted by 259%.......so those sops are meaningless to my bases .
All the talk about some intent at remediation of the rebalance stages seems to be just that ...Talk !
I mentioned in other posts that I thought we needed to see some follow through on this chatter pretty quickly to show good intentions had some basis in fact ...but if this is the follow up to the chatter , then nothing of the discontent has really percolated to the BHG team ...there is no rethink , no addressing real problems , just nice words and carry on as usual.
I would be be willing to spend again on this game if I thought there was some serious rethinking going on ....if this sort of thing constitutes a rethink , then I have a very different definition of what constitutes any sort of rethink in the direction the game is going............. for some reason I expected a new rebalance that took the game back a few stages to make it more playable .....not simply another scam as a way to get people to spend money ......how stupid do they think we are exactly ?...how much do they think we can’t live without this specific game ..there are other games out there !
So , BHG will continue to have had the last of my cash ...I’m not willing to be juped by false promises .....let the game die , I don’t profit from it , it has only ever cost me money , but no more , this really is taking the piss and rubbing people’s noses in the result .
For anyone who is happy with this , and thinks it addresses the problems , I’m happy for you ...enjoy !
