What is the point of Dominations?

[QuébecGlory]

Bump up. No matter how frustrating some wars can be due to unbalanced matchmaking, cheating, etc... Not being able to war at all is completely ridiculous.

 

[KatZA]

Nb4powerup any news on the lack of wars for some teams?

 

[KatZA]

TinSoldier any news on the lack of wars for some teams?

Some top teams can't find war. Farming is boring the top players to the point they are quitting the game. Meanwhile cheaters are all,over the place. What is nexon doing ?
we had two wars cancelled on us, lost the troops we had donated on war map, waited again for a search. Just because some teams found matches doesn't make it ok for nexon to ignore long term players.

17:10 UTC our war ends with #16 Ukraine United, 20v war average level 192.53 without 3 sandbags 167.50 with them added. All of you big guys turn your dial to that station at that time and have yourself an old fashioned h2h... it worth a shot. Nothing else seems to be working.

 

[S_How]

I had said earlier that I'd be willing to wait a very, very long time for wars if they were working on things that would help anything in the current matching system.

But, its entirely unfair if certain heavyweights are getting zero war matches at all. And to the heavyweights on this thread expressing their rightful concern....just so you know it is not better for many other teams too. Many teams had wars suddenly cancelled resulting in lost glory and everything else that goes into wars, worse than no war itself IMO. While others hoping that this was a possible sandbag fix were let down when sandbagging was just as bad as ever. And even many middleweight teams like mine are seeing pretty long wait times (about 1.5 days last time - which Im actually ok with, if it fixes sandbagging, but it hasnt at all). Seems like there are all sorts of teams are experiencing issues.

And through all this, people would probably be a little more patient if there was some sort of explanation, timeframe, reasonable acknowledgement, etc....but again, communication from CS and lack of communication from official channels pretty much hurts more than helps in most cases.

TinSoldier this is a great chance to show us BHG is capable of continuous good communication with the community! I am for sure rooting for you.

Still none ;(

H2h attempts haven't resulted in matches either, unfortunately. (Not that anyone should have to resort to that tactic to get a reasonable war... or any war...)

No match for some, matches canceled (on one or both sides) for others, crazy imbalanced wars for some... and long waits.

It's sad that we're missing out on helping with the WW replay beta too!

 

[Krieg]

S_How, you did the point. War system is broken.

 

[Player Killer]

Michele have you try starting a new temporary alliance to get some war happening?

 

[KatZA]

We have tried doing deliberate matches with other teams, matching our lvls and searching simultaneously. It doesn't work...

 

[KatZA]

That's not the answer @PlayerKiller, it needs to be fixed. We worked hard and fought some crazy wars to get to where we are now...

Any updates on the lack of War matching for some Alliances?

 

[Prodigal Clint]

Nb4powerup ^^ : )

 

[Michele Nx]

I thought about that, PK, and I think others have too... but beside the fact that it's Nexon's problem to fix, I don't think we want to. It would be a pain to coordinate especially since our players are from all over the world. And of course, what happens if that new alliance gets a match? We leave the old one to sit there and take space on the leader board? We go back to it after every war and test again? And of course then there are those who complain about top players making new alliances because the glory swing is crazy when you meet a new alliance. I can't blame them - when you win a war for 1 glory it is bad enough, but if we in a new alliance got a match and the other team lost, they could lose over a thousand glory. We don't want to do that.

You know? What's been bugging me is that Nb4powerup and TinSoldier have been unusually quiet, neither one has responded to this thread after so many days.
And I'm sure CS must be getting hundreds of complaints.

I can certainly understand they really don't know what to do at this point, but please CS don't make things more annoying with these kind of responses, and I quote what one of the "Honorable" GMs told me: "Finding a good match can take some time, so please be patient! If you no longer wish to wait, you can cancel the search by tapping the "cancel" button on the World War Screen..."
Seriously????

Ive had a PM to a Mod go unanswered for a week now.

I got my hopes up last week when we got a new mod and there were lots of responses from him, but then when i saw a lot of potential places he could respond to, crickets.

Im not sure what happened but its almost as if when a really big issue happens, nexon/bgh tells the mods they cannot post anything.

Who actually thinks the war portion of this game is even worth playing.

I just mindlessly raid and build because the war portion is all P2W. No one can raid the constant amount of resources needed to bring full war armies and associated tactics etc..

The amount of items you need to grind to be able to war 2x's a week is ridiculous. Then the amount of time it takes to brew a full army mercenaries and everything else you need to bring not one but 2 complete attacks in a 24 hours period is completely absurd. Those 4 armies that i need to brew in those 2 wars in a week sucks up valuable looting time which is way more fruitful that war payouts.

Why would any intelligent person P2W or participate in a system that rewards spenders not skill

I joined an alliance played in a few wars and not once could I provide enough resources to bring a full army coalitions tactics etc.. and when i did participate in wars it cost me valuable resources as I could of gained a heluva a lot more just raiding

I don't get today's gamer's at all.. or the mobile market. same old crap and yet some of you are lining up for a crap sandwhich

I dont even get to use mercs half the time because i cant hunt/gather since my workers are always upgrading things.

Pretty much for me right now, i war for the 2k crowns i get getting war stars. Once that is done, not sure ill war since rewards dont justify the cost to actually war.

I agree with you in two ways - the loot for war does not replace what I spend to go to war, and the pay to win aspect is much much too strong. I had more respect for the game when it was pay to advance rather than to win. Pay for cards and put them in the stronghold? Buy a bazooka tower? These things reduce the need for skill and it is sad.

However, I still think that war is worth playing! I enjoy scouting a base and making a plan to attack. I like to customize my army and tactics to a target and see if I can take it down.

My alliance wars constantly, and although I am not in every one, I am able to gain the goods for three level 6 coalitions per war without crowns or money. I also go in with full mercs.
