Weekly Feedback: Leagues!

[Aurelius...]

I agree.

Here's a related post, though it's a less developed idea:

Good idea.

Ironangel,

Could you please provide some clarity on what the leagues actually are, and how they are used? I understand the number of medals required to reach each league, and the league bonuses, but are the leagues involved in the matching system? Also, why do I always have either zero or a handful of people in my league (empire 1 @ 2750 medals). And why are people in my alliance, who are also in my league, not listed on the league table that I see?

As to league bonuses, the food and gold bonuses have been good, but since troop building has slowed (and battles per hour), they could use a boost. Oil bonuses are so low that they are really not helpful at all, particularly given the recent uptick in the need for oil for upgrades, troop building, etc.

I like the idea of league awards, this needs additional discussion, but crowns for some of the leaders makes sense.

I agree with most, there should be some kind of award for at least 3 top players from each league when season ends, something that can really motivate you to end up as leader..
As of today, being on a certain league doesn't mean anything, except for league bonuses, considering they are substantial in gold and food at Kingdom and Empire, not to mention oil bonus which is a crappy one and should be increased substantially, considering the need for oil has increased, as well.

There should be more info somewhere regarding league bonuses for players to know what are they aiming at, when climbing leagues.

There's an issue when joining a certain league, sometimes the league is empty, and it stays just like that all season long. How could you possibly be awarded if you don't even appear? It's something that must be fixed

As time goes on and higher medal players are collecting 1 medal at a time but losing 20, times for upgrades get longer and no available opponents gets worse, we see people who have loved this game since it's launch get bored and are beginning to quit. I think that using the league system to offer special battles, give players an opportunity to fight it out with others in their leagues with special rewards or support and benifit for their alliance would be one way to freshen up the game. Yes another era will bring more things to upgrade build and so on. ..but I think these leagues offer developers the opportunity to create something totally new and fresh to revive excitement in the game.

League rewards for low ranks is a big crap, i can get that reward from hunting a single deer or fox, u need to be kingdom league to recieve decent rewards, hell no i wont get that rank till am maxed EA, that makes the league crap for only pay2play players or ancient ones, old players and new ones wouldn't care about it and stay low to farm resources better than going up aganist impossible to loot maxed bases and hackers, also that directly contributes to no opponent issue in high ranks cuz nobody wants to get up there

I like the idea of having the donation stats for alliances being reset by the alliance leader and separate the league reset from the donation reset. Also the fact that the leagues are not really promoted, unless you know about the bonuses in the upper-levels being substantial, you don't really get why they are necessary as you are starting out. The bonuses for each league should be posted as an incentive. Also I like this idea of a Challenge as outlined by John99 below. And if you going to post a list of league players, make it a real list of the top 100 players and give people an incentive like the ideas expressed by folks below. The list should have a purpose.

 

[Ok_it_is_Me]

Well said, Taz.

 

[S_How]

Im in the 1200-1400 medal range, and tbh leagues have no bearing on how I play. I dont even really know what purpose they serve. I guess its a measure of how far youve progressed on medals, but total medal count shows that too?

 

[Porcupine]

More leagues please.. Dynasty league can't be the end of it.

 

[Genyl]

in lower leagues the reward is too small. I am in silver III and I stole 160k and 160k in a battle. Reward for my league is 2.5k gold/food when I am at least looting 50k each in every battle. Doubling the reward would sound reasonable.

Boat is a bit stingy as well.


Also display the reward each league gives

 

[Eddie F1]

Rewards are very mean until 2000 medals

 

[Guest]

Thank you all for your thoughtful feedback! Look for the next topic coming soon!

Leagues are basically buckets of Medal ranges, with rewards based on your ranking. The League Leaderboard is finicky, for sure, but partly that was due to limiting the number of people in your bucket displayed for resource purposes. It's definitely on our list to revisit.

Not appearing doesn't mean you don't get rewarded - as long as you see the Medal icon on your screen, you're getting rewards.
