Workers required for university research...seriously?

I agree with the many others here who say it's ridiculous to use workers for the uni upgrades. I don't mind so much the cost or even the time. But has anyone looked at some of these upgrades?? Half way through some trees are the upgrades to reduce the upgrade costs of different defensive buildings. By the time anyone gets to that point in the tree, if your garrisons or tank depots or whatever are not fully upgraded yet somethings wrong. So what's the point? And to have the library tech upgrade the final one in the tree??? It will take a few years to get that one done but your library will be completely tech'd out by than! Some of theses make no sense and it seems like they just had to come up with something to fill the tree. I currently have 16 workers. With 12-14 days it takes to upgrade things in global and 4 workers a piece, it's crazy. I get the point on how it's good cause it takes a very long time and always keeps you interested, but take the workers out of the equation. And fix the stupid upgrades which will be pointless by the time we get to them!

Totally agree with Motaz. They either need to remove the worker element and change time 25-50%, or they need to reduce the time taken 50-75%.

I do like diversity....but this solution does not achieve diversity. A year from now, the diversity will be some people have more hit points on university, while others have it on another economic building. Because it takes 2 years to max one tree, while at the same time reducing your building capacity making everything else slower also. Wonderful premise behind uni and the 500 techs, but how they could have even gotten the 2 year to max past the whiteboard is beyond me. Stunning lol.

Red. I admire your never ending optimism. But to be very honest, it confuses me more than it has ever made sense. The only thing I can possibly think of is that you play the game in a totally different way than the majority of forum goers. Perhaps you are in a smaller alliance, that does not really compete much in war, or value progression? There is nothing wrong with that, to each his own, but there has to be something dramatically different given the paradigm you always seem to have.

There are some very neat things in the way they put in this library. However, even for a person that sets a personal goal of completing just 20% of the research, it would take 2 years, and mean that they do NOT use 4-8 workers on building during that 2 years, which slows non-university progression 2-3x as well. I like hard challenges and have never advocated a faster armory progression, because I felt they got that pace pretty well right. But the way the uni is set up, is absolutely absurd with time and worker requirements

redprince and others, are you simply too blind or naive to see that this game consists of about 90% cheaters, or are these maxed bases with lvl40 generals and maxed walls also just diversity? com on open your eyes! or does nexon give you crowns for these statements?
n4bpowerup is simply trying to make us believe that of these 90% cheaters 99% are legit, which simply cant be true given the cash ranking of this game in the app store.
but his comment also shows why they don't take any measure or don't care about cheaters.

CLASH OF CLANS handles the cheater problematic right and more aggressive. then we can come back and talk about sort of "diversity" and how much "fun" irrational and ridiculously implemented lifetime upgrade trees are.
and also consider, gents, it won't be over with 5 leaders, it won't give just 6 level 40 generals. they will introduce even more crap in the atomic and space ages.

honestly if a game is designed that legit players can not even get half way through it its the death of a game. and this is happening here. in the end 99,9 % of players will be cheaters as the legit ones will drop out week by week from now on.

all best fun playing on these servers then and enjoying diversity....cant believe some comments here...

I guess ignorance is bliss. I don't see many cheater bases anymore, just occasionally. And cheaters in CoC were a nightmare for over two years...so...yeah.

Totally not the case. Nor will I stand by and allow you to paint this narrative. You're more than welcome to believe what you want but going tin-hat and marginalizing the hard work of the team and I isn't going to fly.

Maybe time for Nexon to release another event or sales pack that has houses and workers in them.. no? Would be very helpful if they insist on bottle-necking the armory still and sucking up our little guys to work at the Uni.

If they do that they need to price it right. $200 plus a shinobi army. We don't want to flood the game with cheap houses and let the peons catch up.

I support your assertion GoldDS . . . I don't know what game the other people are playing who don't see cheaters . . . I'm attacked at least 3 times a week by maxed generals, with maxed bases . . . Even searching for an opponent, 1 in 5 is maxed (abandoned or active). I wish I was playing the same game where I could say "I don't see many cheater bases anymore" . . . IMO the frustration sets in when you have purchased, but then you are playing against someone who has not, and then you say, damn I must be stupid for giving these people money for something other people have gotten for free, and a whole bunch of it too ... Once I saw these 2 videos I have just accepted the game as is . . . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_Sblwz3b8s . . . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4duJdeKTwHY

Come on guys, Nexon has to eat too. It's such a small price to pay for this great game!

Love the effort Nb4powerup ! Stand up for your team! I work with devs and I know how much they put in each day and I hate hearing people go on emotional rants assuming they know what it takes and what happens behind the scenes. If it helps, you can let your team know that many of us think this game is absolutely awesome. It's a gem and it will only get better because the team you have building it knows what they are doing and has the passion for it too. There will always be nay-sayers because pleasing everyone is not possible, but know also that there is a strong group of us that are supportive and really excited.

Part of the problem Nb4powerup is in the past Nexon has been very silent when it comes to these sensitive subjects. Rather than explain what they're doing ie: keep the players in the loop - they keep silent while speculation & paranoia grow. I'm sure you know that misinformation, like mushrooms, grows best in the dark.....
