Iron Base Stacking - Aussie Shred Experience

[Hugh Jazz]

I know you will phil .. And thats how i make you dance.

 

[Hugh Jazz]

Your biggest mistake is assuming that i am being agressive ... Its called baiting .. I say something, you reply .. You just cant help it. You are probaly having as much fun as I am. The difference is you try to sound smart and reasonable and im just laughing at you. All the 2 dollar words in the world dont bring you respect.

 

[phil_dee]

For my curiosity--why do you presume that these things (respect, whether you are laughing, etc.) are important to me, or to anyone else? It seems somewhat inconsistent for you to try so hard while simultaneously pointing to others and claiming they have ego issues.

 

[Hugh Jazz]

This is like fishing ..

We're currently in the final hours with Latinos Top who have their top 7 global and bottom 5 Gunpowder, medieval and classical. Not as bad as Iron age stacking but when you only have 2 brand new Globals there is just no way to defend against them.

 

[Vixen]

Blacknife686 that stinks and is demoralizing. Global sandbaggers you are killing game!!!

 

[Hugh Jazz]

Definitely demoralizing but i cant agree that its killing the game. People still go to war and hope they dont face these honourless groups.

 

[Vixen]

As a non global alliance we are warring less and less. We don't mind losing fair and square but sick of being matched to 20 globals and 10 classic/iron ages. We are including less of our team to stay under the 25 mark which is not fair on those being excluded. It may not be killing your game but it sure is affecting ours.

 

[Hugh Jazz]

i approach it like this ... I never lose. If I don't win, I learned something and would never count that as a loss.

 

[Blacknife686]

We lost that war by about 2-3 stars and decreased to a 15 war with around 6 industrial and 9 Enlightenment and get matched with a group with 5 top end Globals, 5 Industrials and Medieval at the bottom. Thanks Game (Y)

Hi Everybody!

We are having the same problem this war, and we are actually thinking about not even attack.
We are in a 30v30 war against ARES ARMY..
they are:
9 global age,
9 industrial age,
2 enlightment age
2 Gunpowder age
8 iron age (8!!!!!!)

We are ITALIANI 2016:
13 industrial age( most of them recently industrial, only 6 with fully industrial army)
10 enlightment
6 gunpowder age
1 medieval age

1) where is the fun in that?
2) we are going to lose 698 glory points and we'd be winning 400 for a war impossible to win for us...it's just math.

We don't care about losing our 13th position in glory points Ranking.
We knew it was going to happen someday, and we are going to fight harder than before to gain back the position we have earned with so many efforts.
After all, refusing to play with iron age profiles, we are used to play against much stronger alliances and we wouldn't be in that ranking position if it we didn't play this way.

I really hope this problem will be fixed someday. At least this alliances shouldn't be rewarded so much for defeating weaker alliances like us ( by level not ability).
please, don't force us to do the same!!!!
Wendy

ps i'm going to start upgrading to global age in this right moment. I needed another month to upgrade the last few things, but this is becoming necessary.

We just wrapped up our second war with Project Tera. Both times they had the bottom 25% of their roster iron age. Once at 40, once at 35v35. This last time, we were outmatched 26 max global offenses to 7, and 15 max global defenses to 0. We ended up losing 175-173, but we would have surely tied them had we not lost multiple critical attacks to crashes yesterday morning, overall our team did amazing....but at the end of the day, an amazing performance against these mismatches is at best a tie which carries no reward in glory.

Anyway, totally agree its killing the game. Can only walk into it so many times and approach it as a learning situation, or try so many different ways to adapt....bottom line is unless its fixed, war is done. Its about 95% of wars at 40v40+, more than half our wars at 35, and I see it all the time seeping lower and lower into the brackets.

Worst part of all is the absolute silence from Nexon. Not even basic recognition of a problem.

 

[Max_imus]

Great comment Jazz.

 

[Hugh Jazz]

All that can be done is seggregate your alliance ... Not suggesting this is the best method but it is one way to combat these numpties .. If you only go to war with global and industrial players there is a small chance that you will match them .. They are dropping their average levels almost in half so very few would average over 150. I have no solution for an enlightenment and industrial war as this would put them right in the lvl range and have no global players to help them ...

In no way shape or form is it an honorable way to play the game and the biggest affected groups are the ones that get the most out of war. We cant publicly shame these alliances because they are just so morally compromised already that they dont care as long as they win.

 

[Glacier]

Why wait on Nexon? Why even wait to see IF they do something as a fix? Me personally, I don't believe Nexon will do anything.

Merg today! Let one alliance be the war matchers and the other a trainer alliance for the lower aged bases.

 

[Glacier]

Hugh Jazz, I disagree with your first paragraph, HOWEVER! The second paragraph is spot on!! Woot!

 

[Hugh Jazz]

No alliance should have to seggregate itself and exclude players from war .. I don't encourage this action, I only suggested it as a solution albeit a very poor one.

 

[S_How]

Yeah it sucks. You start really losing the feeling of being on a big fun team when forced into that. Yet, its almost exactly what we are doing - sticking around 30-35 to increase coverage ability of our globals and reduce our chance to ~50% or so of getting stacked teams. A few months ago we would have laughed at even the thought of dropping under 40 man wars. Its not how we want to play, always tried to be very inclusive and we had a great recipe for it.

 

[Prodigal Clint]

seriously, go recruit somewhere else.. this is very weak

ps.- if anything it would b the other way around

 

[S_How]

Totally agree lol. Worst possible solution is to accept it like this guy lol. And go recruit in the right place.
