Why all the hate on forum?

[dbukalski]

I think this thread has gone way of topic, but welcome Elizabeth Jones!! I myself am new to the forums, but I have experienced my share of cheaters in game play. To be honest with you I'm sitting now barely ever playing anymore, but I am looking forward to flying troops so I am sticking with the game until the industrial update, if not much changes after this update then I'll remove the game, plain and simple.

elizabeth asked why the hate. The hate is a fake new player telling everyone they wouldnt be whigning if they knew how to play the game. every comment is related to the hate, how wrong she is about why were complaining or our knowledge of the game. The only reply thats off topic is yours talking about how you dont play the game anymore. Elizabeth didnt ask about your experience. She asked why shes hated on. So get on topic

Well, when I first came here, the forum was populated by people full of virtual rage because there were SEVERE bugs on the app, like being attacked while online, star-scoring attacks not resulting on protective shields, and some other hell-sent nuissances. These problems are almost gone (well, at least they do not affect everyone on a massive basis), but in their place the subsequent updates brought some balance features that where not welcome at all, I will give you a little tour about what made the forums a no-man's zone:

• Heavy Cavalry was nearly useless, so they gave a buff to them;
• But the buff was insane. People steamrolled bases with them, so they lessened their attack power. They still remained quite usable;
• Then, they rolled the update that added some stuffy stuffs to Enlightmen Age and some Industrial Age (wich is currently out of reach to fair players) stuff encoded inside. This drove players on a rage because a lot of cheaters used hacks to roll planes and tanks on legit players who had only musketeers and horsies to counter that;
• This update also broken the unit's IA beyond belief, like cavalry trying to find some right angle to start a melee or the units stop attacking towers to face attackers, wich lead to a unnecessary stupid death;
• Now, they nerfed cavalry attack once more and brought some umbelievable surreal (un)balances, like oil wells having more HP than Castles.

Adding salt to the wound, until recently, the posture of the developers about public feedback was of pure silence beyond the official posts that states things that are the exact opposite of the feedback. It's like they stated indirectly that "this is our game, our vision, and our job. We dont care about what you want and we will do as we please".

That's why the veterans around here think that optimistic folks around here talking like things ingame are good and well are fake accounts.

the big problems with cavalry had nothing to do with angle of attack. cavalry were aboslutely insane attacking walls, pathing that took them all the way around a base unecessarily.


we dont think their fake accounts because were angry and their happy. we think their fake accounts because a group of them all showed up at same time. With generic real names like Jane_Doe. they all had the same message that was over the top positive and out of touch. And their vocabulary was that of employees rather than players.
