Latest unannounced update

[Kev's Empire]

We started our current war as we would any other however as we progressed we noticed 3D Level 280+ going down in around 2 min. You have adjusted something in the latest update that has made it an attackers dream. I have seen a screenshot of a Level 319 3D going down in a bit over 2 min. Whatever has changed please reverse it.

For every adjustment Nexon makes another 2 problems pops up. It just never ends.

I think the current theory (in other threads and on Reddit) is that they "fixed" Assault Rally level 4, and that attackers attack much faster. (Previously, level 4 AR would decrease the attack speed, even while increasing damage). AR level 4 now seems crazily overpowered.

 

[Rogue Squirrel]

The problem is, they 'fixed' Assault Rally without telling anyone, and some people were in the middle of a war (not me luckily!) when it happened, which meant that anyone who left their attacks until later had a huge advantage. These people, quite rightly, feel a little aggrieved.

Sounds to me as though now Assault Rally is now completely overpowered and perhaps they should undo their 'fix' and leave it as it was

 

[No Angel]

Tell this to the guy who kept asking for AR fix!

Seriously?
The stats for the AR was plain for everyone to see, people were salivating at the possibilities of lvl 3 and 4. People cried for it to be fixed.
Now Nexon should change it back? Why, because you had no idea it would be so OP?

 

[Rogue Squirrel]

I quite liked the fact that after the rebalance defences played a much more important role in wars. If this tactic is so OP that it effectively cancels out the changes, then yes, it should be nerfed

 

[Manifesto]

The same rules apply to anyone using the AR. Don't complain about it, use it on others.
Maybe Nexon will tweak it, maybe not, but complaining about something everyone has access to, in a game designed for attacking and being attacked, is ridiculous.

In other case, eliminate the Protection Tactic. a AR protect more than a Protection.

 

[chris.dominations]

I'm on board with you Manifesto. After all, the name of the game is DomiNations, not Weak Attack Nations. That's the fun of the game. Dominating other players. There are plenty of unskilled, underpowered players that will continue to struggle even if they spam the AR.

The collection of resources, NTGs and completion of goals, quests and events often relies on defeating multiple bases during your gaming sessions. If the game goes back to where it was headed with all of the recent "re-balances", it would kill that whole aspect of the game, making it truly a pay to win type game.

The AR now at least gives us a chance to enjoy and play the game as we used to, dominating other players. Don't take the fun out of the game by nurfing one of the few good offensive changes that have been added in a long time.

Manifesto, with all due respect man, you surely do not enjoy the full aspects of Dominations. You can get a full attack in matter of days and 1 pack of crowns, but u need months and months and months and too many €€€ to get a full defense, with full university, and you seriously think that a 3D full cold war base can and should be destroyed but an atomic guy in under 2 minutes?!

This AR tatic should be removed instantly and never to be implemented unless they redesign its intention, cause the way they made it, its plain stupid! This ain't the game i've been playing for the past years..

 

[Manifesto]

you seriously think that a 3D full cold war base can and should be destroyed but an atomic guy in under 2 minutes?!

Read and understand my comments.
I don't care if someone can beat anyone in under 2 mins but l don't recall ever saying it should be the way of things.
The point of my comments about the AR are 2 fold:
1. Do unto others. If it can be done to you, you can do the same to them.
2. This is an attacking game. It's petty to complain about being beaten in an attacking game, OP tactic or not.
Speaking as a fully loaded CW player, l always intended to get to a position where l can give back to the community, ie: my rss are exposed, so naturally l dont have an issue being beaten in 3mins or 30secs.
I don't begrudge anyone taking my rss (except if it's done with a cheat or hack) and neither should anyone because after all it's just a game!
No doubt people will claim it's more than just a game because they've spent money. That's their choice, doesn't mean it's not a game.

ps: in the past I've called this game an investment (time-wise). Doesn't mean it's not a game.

 

[Kev'sEmpire]

Manifesto as I have said in another post I've had a lot of problems with getting an active profile so I could make comments here. I even had CS working on an existing profile for about a month to try and make it active. Anyway back to question, you keep talking about multi-player attacks, do you do WW? I don't know you and I haven't been on the forum due to above mentioned problems. To me you sound like a player that farms most of the time and if you do WW it is not very often. I not having a go at you, I am trying to understand your point of view. To be honest anyone who wants to attack my base in multi-player is more than welcome to whatever they destroy as resources are easy to raid for.

 

[Manifesto]

I dont war anymore but my comments apply to both:
Do unto others.
What's good for the goose is good for the gander.
He who lives by the AR shall die by the AR.
(No other clichés come to mind)

Ok..it’s official, we have a moron in this chat room...

Guys - this thread and comments about ar4 needing to be fixed refers to world war principally, if people want to use ar for raiding or have other comments on multiplayer please kindly start a separate thread and if possible refrain from making uninformed comments for the sake of it.

The overpowered ar 3-4 ruins completely the world war team component of the game. This feedback is broad based from many alliances, across both defenders and attackers, players with different attacking styles all being forced by this overpowered ar to migrate to a single zook ar combo, any sort of defense (any i mean ANY SORT) being irrelevant, any coalition strategy being irrelevant, all wars being perfect score timer wars, etc etc we have shared with nexon all this proof from many top wars. The sentiment in various Line rooms is that nobody is enjoying these changes, people speak like they are being forced to play world wArs with this format rather than enjoy the game, strategize for it, plan for it, etc etc All this feedback has already been shared above. Root cause of this is either nexon not doing any proper/meaningful/ serious uat before rolling this out or coding (stats) of ar 3-4 being programmed incorrectly in this ad-hoc uncommunicated release.

As regards multiplayer mode or single player leadership board plays, these are irrelevant for the game, there are numerous possibilities to raid resources and people can work around the screwed ar tactic. As regards leaderboard single player challenges it is just not worth given the large numbers of hackers that like to take a swing at the top 10 (trust me speaking from experience, on the receiving end) and nexon being either unable or unwilling to a) prevent these cheats/ hacks or b) if and once they occur, act decisively (completely ban) and quickly (ie real time). At the moment neither of these is happening (not even close), it is for this reason i am not bothered about multiplayer any longer (this undoubtedly is costing nexon real money since i dont think i am only one in this position).

 

[Manifesto]

I'm surprised you're saying mp is irrelevant and you're not bothered with mp. I can only presume you're one of those people who war but dont care about rss or NTGs.

 

[Cris 4321]

Manifesto Absolutely correct - i play the game only for war, all else is around the edges or in support of wars, thats the case for most of my alliance also. Hence the feedback on this ar 3-4 pertaining largely to wars, feedback is broad based across many alliances. The only reason i play the game is for team wars and this is now broken hence this feedback to nexon.

In cwa for example (before space age) i played for many months with full gold and food (and to a lesser extent oil) since the constraint at least for me was the time to upgrade various things, followed by availability of workers and not collecting resources. For a while i played for leaderboard position but gave that up quite quickly due to hackers/ cheats that were and are omnipresent and allowed to pollute the game.

Thanks for introducing yourself.
