no instant building upgrade?

 

no instant building upgrade?

Exactly. Cost discounts are a pointless exercise.

 

Again disappointing… why not make a defence artifact?

It would be nice if there were free tokens to collect, to get the new legendary artifacts

 

@Harlems369th

For the Auto and Robot Age players - Can we add an anniversary feature for us. Most early ages get a boost in discounts to move up faster. An anniversary event for Manufactory would be nice for late game players.

Can Auto and Robotic Age get a benefit with Manufactory- double the amount rss produced per slot with 50% reduction in time to produce 20 rss each time.

Have each upgrade to a munition be reduced by 50% cost of components to upgrade per level from April to June.

It would give us something to focus more and help us try out more new strategy with higher level munitions.

It would be a nice feature for all the end game players.

It wouldn't even need a reduction if production capacity was uncapped - then all ages benefit.

Yeah I support that too

 

funny. apc + MRL destroy 3D bases, what kind of artifact would be released? right! the one that makes apc + mrl even stronger.

The game is once again turning into a strategy of the same type. How about giving bonuses to other units, you need variety, not monotony?

Agree this company is not listening to the players

 

And the complaining has begun...
Robo age defenders should answer all these questions first:
- Is your defensive buildings and troops maxed? How about manufactory which is gonna take like "decade" to do that? Have you changed your museum to debuff heavy infantry or/and MRL?

Garrisons, tank depots and traps are not even republished to robotics age (yes those are coming in future) which is gonna buff defenders too.

After all this, we can really see how OP apc/mrl tactic is, or is it?

 

And the complaining has begun...

No, this is a call for justice.

Yeap

How about manufactory which is gonna take like "decade" to do that?

Most defenders have well-upgraded ammunition, although not all of it is level 20, but at least in garrisons, bunkers, warehouses, towers and air defenses

Have you changed your museum to debuff heavy infantry or/and MRL?

The museum and showcase already have plenty of universal lines against Factory and Barracks troops. Yes, some may not have reached -85% yet, but not all attackers have collected artifacts that increase damage/health for infantry/MLRS, so we're on equal terms here

Garrisons, tank depots and traps are not even republished to robotics age (yes those are coming in future) which is gonna buff defenders too.

Garrisons, Bunkers, and Tank depots vehicle depots are practically useless, as many attackers already have +400% or more EDST. As a result, defenders no longer spawn except for the first wave. Furthermore, defenders previously received a significant health bonus to such buildings from the Russian coalition. Now these buildings are like matchsticks.
Maori used to provide defenders with both damage and health. Now, these bonuses are split between the two coalitions, and most defenders won't activate both, as it's much more profitable to activate the Indians and Egyptians and then choose between the Maori or Russians at the end. As a result, defenders are deprived of either damage or health.

I'd also like to point out that the Russian coalition previously buffed the damage and health of air defenses. This is no longer the case, and the vulnerability to bombers remains relevant.

Back in the middle of last year, a similar discussion flared up about the showcase and artifacts that provide a strong advantage to attackers, since the benefits for defense are several times less than the benefits for attack. Back then, @Harlems369th claimed that good artifacts of war would be released for defenders. But since then, not a single decent legendary artifact for defenders has been released. And those that have appeared have only 1-3 useful benefits; the rest are garbage. As a result, their place is in the showcase, but not in the main slots. And now we see the situation repeating itself. They also released the British Kettle Drum for mortars. But there is no defensive artifact with simultaneous DST, ADTH, ADTD, Enemy rally cooldown, and Enemy quick victory time.

This is exactly what I wrote above in the post about the new artifact.

You can parry

That's a very good idea.
Defenders should be able to acquire lines they don't currently have.
It should be fair.
The difference between EDST and DST should also be eliminated.
The advantages that only attackers possess should be eliminated.
And we should eliminate the advantages that only defenders possess.
For example, the range increase due to the Egyptian effect, the number of people emerging from bunkers and tank hangars limited to a cost of 170 (187).

Would a fair game be fun?
This game is also becoming pay-to-win, but if they start adding various artifacts and other items to advocate for fairness, it will likely accelerate the pay-to-win trend even further.
What do you think?

 

Great, you want parity in one part of the game. What about the rest? To stick with your example of spawn times:
- Defenders receive -10% bonus from the Alliance perk; attackers receive nothing.
- Defenders receive -20% bonus from the Parliament; attackers receive nothing.
- Defenders receive -113% from the Library. Attackers receive nothing.
- Defenders receive up to -66% from the Council. Attackers receive nothing.
- Defenders receive like -7s from the Munition. Attackers receive nothing.

Is this fair, or don’t we then also need the corresponding counterparts to that?

He already started crying just a week after the update. Now we’re just waiting for the other whiner to join him so they can complain together about how OP the offense is lol.

That's bullshit... Bad example with the spawnbuildings... Offensiv got a lot of % from parliament or library or uni and council regarding troop dmg or HP or air troop and so on where the defensive bases Do not get any advantage... So if you want to compare then I guess we need to create a big document with all stats liste and then we can talk again...

And if you wann still stay with the spawntimes... Deff got the -85 cap...

I didn't choose that example; I was reacting to the previous speakers.

Offensiv got a lot of % from parliament or library or uni and council regarding troop dmg or HP or air troop and so on where the defensive bases Do not get any advantage...

An entire section of the library is dedicated to defense, as is a branch of the parliament and other laws.
To claim that only the offense would get anything is total nonsense.

So if you want to compare then I guess we need to create a big document with all stats liste and then we can talk again...

Typical - when you don't have any arguments, you just try to change the subject. Why don't you make the list?

And if you wann still stay with the spawntimes... Deff got the -85 cap...

And even more nonsense:
1) -85% cap affects both Off and Def. (A revision has already been announced anyway.)
2) Spawn time has never had the -85% cap.

 

If people spent time experimenting with new combos or changes, instead of arguing on the forum about what needs to change, they wouldn't need to argue on the forum.
