Defense Bases formal request to change name from DomiNations to Indestructible, since NERF is copyrighted already.

Used to be HTs, Guerillas and they nerfed it

Then the Helipocalypse happened, they OP'd helis cause no one was using it, and then after everyone upgraded, bought artifacts, nerfed.

Then attackers said, ok, lets go with Paratroopers since they could sneak to TC, we bought the artifacts so they get more power, up to 100k even, then they nerfed that.

and even then -- what did most do? Switched to LEGO or Fighters.

So some attackers said, alright, lets go with fighters, theyre plentiful - just need to collect some artifacts to boost them -- guess what happened? nerfed - 120k dmg down to 1k. LAUGHABLE.

Those that went from paratroopers to fighters - now onto bombers.

Now the PAY2WIN defense bases want bombers to be nerfed, Once that happens and it looks like it will in the next few updates, LEGO warriors beware, you're next.

PS. While I understand the frustration of spending a fortune on defense, only to be knocked out -- its a DESTRUCTION GAME --- want to build indestructible farms and towers? Go to GameStop or your local BestBuy, pick up a switch and I highly recommend, Animal Crossing - my wife absolutely loves that game, and might be right one for those who complain about paying too much, or too many hackers, or can't build strong enough bases, and most importanty, they can't understand why theres destruction in a destruction objective game.

Alright folks, lets not go off the rails, you're welcome to share opinions and be constructive. These threads too quickly become destructive, and I promise we pay much more attention to constructive conversation than we do the squabbles we see too often here.

Totally agree it's a game about destruction. You dominate the enemy - just as the name suggests.

It’s NOT a game about destruction. Please stop saying this is an attacking game. It’s simply not, it’s a war game. Offense vs defense. One does not exist without the other.

I’ll be sure my bombers drops hugs and kisses when I come across your base. Like, what?

If it’s not about destruction, what is it then?

If it’s not an attacking game, again, what is it then?

No one said, it’s ONLY destruction. But this isn’t FarmVille.

See here at the end of war report? “Average Destruction” — not “Average Construction”

lol - you keep saying that and I'll keep saying it IS. Have you even seen the ads for Dominations??
Yes it's a war game but it's only a war game if someone decides to actively attack the other person - otherwise it's just a bunch of people waiting around - ergo, the game only works when someone attacks.
And, one can exist without the other. How many underdeveloped bases have you seen with strong army combos? No-one's forcing you to build a good defense - that's your choice - but you need to attack in order to progress, you can't simply defend and expect to grow.

ps: I'm sure you're talking about wars as a high level player but the majority of players are still progressing - presumably by attacking.

I completely agree with this

Playing this since 10 years..it was both a defense and offense game..it was fun on both sides.since last years, you have to choose, either O or D. This was a bad move. Now I am 100% D, but I suck in attacks now. This gives a bad UX…sorry to say

Even while im very heavily offense -- theres still a great amount of defense I work on. While I'm not a 3D defender, theres still many times my base holds atleast 1 star or as many as 5, even when attacked by a similarly leveled attacker.

Many times even I as an attacker, will screw up, or just short of time and not get 5*, again on a similar level 3O defender.
As far as I see it, playing since Space Age, it is much more balanced. As I said in discord -- if there are teams or attackers that are clean sweeping another team all the time -- or all teams are looking at time wars being the deciding factor - then there is an imbalance.

But thats just not happening.

You can enjoy attacking and be very good at that and suck at defense, or be real good at attacking, and stull focus on improving defense. There is no crazy imbalance where the defense is way too strong, or where crappy attackers constantly get 5*. Crappy attacker stay crappy, and crappy defenders get crushed.

But lets say you're right. List a few things you would change, that you think would correct the "imbalance".
