Not sure if it’s only CWA but MP search questions

[sileepuppee]

So through more and research through MP raids, it seems now that there’s very little difference (If any) despite being in different medal leagues. Granted I haven’t tried past kingdom league but previously you could clearly see how much bases and attack options changed once you passed and gold. So I searched through at least 20-30 bases per age attacks some and passing many others. From copper III and kingdom I and everything in between, there was no difference in the bases I came across. Every league had some easy AA bases and CWA but had the same amount of maxed CWA bases. Maybe the system is still being adjusted but now it would seem like medal drops don’t help which was a strategy and that’s now gone. Just wondering if that’s just my alliance because the few cwa players we have here have that experience and yes it’s really killing us in the ntg gathering department because we can find specific nation bases and when we do, it’s a 250 + monster. Also wondering if it’s all ages bases as well.

I have to agree. I found lower medals, all the way down to 500-600, had plenty of maxed CWA bases. In my case it was oil raiding, not NTGs.

 

[Rogue Squirrel]

Yep, I agree too. I've been going up and down between 800 and 1200 medals, and I've been seeing just as many CWA bases at lower levels as above

The global pool of abandoned bases was deep enough to sustain cwa raiding without running out of targets and finding everyone under a treaty. The atomic pool isn't even close. Any easy atomic is going to be under a peace treaty, leaving only active decent defense atomics and cwa.

I feel like we have been warning nexon there aren't enough players at atomic and above since before cwa came out. They haven't changed a thing to fix that by shortening the early game, so now here we are.

This was a pretty foreseeable consequence. Some people on here brought it up but were trolled until they ended up banned. Just like the self detonating planes that will be coming our way.

 

[Manifesto]

Yes, the consequences of the rebalance was well predicted but there are still plenty of bloated AA & CW bases that can be beaten with regularity.
I'm sitting on 250k oil every 2-3 days.

 

[Manifesto]

Dont start a conspiracy about planes until you see them in action, or inaction.
We have enough scaremongering already.
If defences are boosted then adapt, find other solutions.

Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.


Humans have this ability, called Adaptation, which is better than other animals.

Anyways, the removal of Global Agers from Cold War Agers attack list is the key factor here. It's actually pushing me to aim on defense upgrades here, as Atomic.
2 sides of knife?!

 

[Pretty]

Conspiracy sorry sweetly it’s common sense.

 

[Pretty]

I don’t understand what you are trying to say???

 

[No Angel]

Metaphors, sista.

Referring to the people you mentioned. They brought it up with a way that would never work, trapped by their false behavior, and refuse to accept the reality.
Adapt, then find another way out, then you can expect different results

 

[Manifesto]

Pretty
She's saying, l think, that you're better off looking forward and adapting to the change, ie: swim with the current, which helps your game.
Otherwise, enjoy fighting against the current.

 

[No Angel]

Manifesto You said it better!

i think high-cwa people are more active now, either because they want to fill up their stockpile in preparation for SA, or simply because they’re just excited by the announcement of it. the reason for my thinking is because my searches used to be all dynasty 1 but now i see many dynasty 2 and 3 which leads me to believe many of dynasty 1 cities have been peace treaty-ed. there are no globals and only like 3 atomics in dynasty 1, so globals being excluded from cwa searches does not explain this.

this means that,

but now it would seem like medal drops don’t help which was a strategy and that’s now gone

medal dropping still works, except now those high-cwa are the medal droppers and you guys who thought you were the medal droppers are now the low league natives that those medal droppers have come looking for.

and,

It's actually pushing me to aim on defense upgrades here, as Atomic.

you’d be better off to try to make your base look weaker, rather than stronger, so that globals can underestimate you and attack you, and destroy half your base and give you a peace treaty but fail to touch your refinery. if you make your defense stronger, globals will not attack you, but cwa and sa laugh at your ‘improved’ defenses and steamroll you

 

[Pretty]

Lol it’s a mobile game not South Africa. It’s supposed to be fun.

 

[No Angel]

Since I'm planning to advance soon, upgrading defense is inevitable

 

[Cannibals]

Finally there are farmable Global baseseft for us Atomics. Pick on someone your own size Cold Warriors.

Hardest part so far is the ntg gathering, not rss. Many players (I’m sure there’s a good amount who haven’t switched) realize that CWA isn’t a great age to be anything but Germans/French/romans/etc. I know that’s just from my sample size but every CWA I’m seeing are those nations that are best suited for war and that’s making the variety of nations I’m seeing always those particular ones. Because only 1/20 are inactive bases, all the active ones are all the ones I don’t need in terms of forming coals. Occasional luck here and there when the added ntg is a random but mostly all the same. I get that everyone is medal dropping, that hasn’t changed but now there so few (In any) abandoned bases and those are the ones that really contributed to my ntgs because those tended to be the nations that get played less in late game.

 

[KniferX]

So even now there's trouble with CWAs and NTGs because of a low-ish number of easy atomics. Can't imagine what happens when Digital Age comes out and Space Age is only able to attack low nation variety 220+ bases only. This has to be solved in that time (different system, or bigger NTG rewards for harder bases) or we'll have a drought of NTGs for war.

 

[Manifesto]

Great point. I hadn't thought of the grind beyond Space Age.
Wars might very well grind to a crawl if Nexon doesn't do something to help.
