Right from Global Age update, game included some pointless building just to keep players busy (until they bring next Age),so they are following same pattern to get the time for Cold War Age.I really liked game before Global Age update.Here I list those mistakes from game developers -
1) Embassy- I don't know why one has to waste so much time for collecting NTG(collecting resources is enough time killer). As a casual player you cannot be competitive in WW without Coalition.So casual player don't find level playing field in WW.These players will be first succumb under pressure and quit. The only benefit is here for the game developers who got more time by choking our Armory.
2) University- This one is like a second library do give player power to get discount on building, strength of troops & tactics,etc. To make it worst it requires Citizens.I don't find the logic of University ,as all the benefits of University can done by nexon in game balance update.So it's another building for the benefits of game developers to buy more time from players.
3)Dock- It provides Troops,Tactics, blessing, resources and sometimes crowns reward.And again you have to send your citizens and sometimes Generals for 3-4-5 days to get your stuff.Another building to slow down the game.And what worst with unlimited troops Tactics card in WW, it creates imbalance between Attack and defense.
The purity and strategic requirement of the game during Industrial Age WW playing days is no more available for player after Global Age update. I love to play Dominations WW without Coalitions, University and extra troops.But the game update suggest me it's the game run by developers and right now there is very little room for players who use to love this game purity and Strategic requirement.
I know it's a never ending game,but please bring some sense in your game update. Its a good game,but going towards wrong direction. To be Rise of Nation and Civilization of mobile platform, more needs to be done.
Nothing against anyone or this game,just love to see this game in top list of mobile platform game.
