Good evening,

We went into 2024 with an AMA forum chat, which was a great way to gather feedback from the community.

I believe at this point - it’s time for the team to set up a fireside chat and possible PowerPoint display of what the future of these rebalance for troops will look like for the player base.

It would be nice to see a group of team members giving their view and plans of what is to happen in video format for us all to watch and give feedback on. Most gaming companies do these chats to engage the player base and give them a glimpse of the future via the developers plans as a group and discussions to the gaming community about the future with examples and slides that give an idea of what’s in stored for us all. I.E.

Stage 1 Rebalance - information in a slide and potential release date.
Stage 2 Rebalance - similar slide as stage 1
Stage 3 Rebalance similar slide as stage 2

I hope the team will move to the next stage of interacting with the gaming community. Forums are nice, but sometimes it’s better to actually see the people behind the scenes and what on their mind for the game in video or podcast even.

I appreciate the feedback. I've been working with the team for the last few years to encourage them to share a roadmap for all of you, to be more transparent. This is where 'Road Aheads' came from and the few 'Sitreps'. A 'fireside chat' discussion would be great, but those take time and planning, whereas I can ask the team to commit to a roadmap post much more easily.

you know what , in the end you give a damn about your customers. that's it. after ten years you can't fix the game. and that's the sad truth. you get paid and you fail in your work. useless to waste time to list the hundred bugs here. that's it.
ps. i took part last year in the AMA chat with you. the questions i asked were not answered. that's how you work. take care and thank you. i'm out

Each troop combo takes considerable time to build (not to mention perfect) in both council and museum. So, with the fighters nerfed, lego half working against 3D, we are left with no options to attack. It would be nice to have the whole picture laid open and thus know in advance were to invest or not, what to keep, what to delete or reroll etc .

Lets us know the whole plan please. Be transparent

How about fixing replays and war battle reports. Last AMA y’all hid from this question will this one be the same. We have waited ten years for a fix and actually have proof of who won a war battle.

My guess this will be another Seek gets banned and threatened from AMA like last year when y’all hid from answering.

Getting road map of what is ahead would be nice but fixing the problems that already exist is way more important than anything to most players

Without committing to a schedule yet, we should likely do something akin to an AMA again soon. We will talk about this internally.
There is a fine line between transparency and overcommitting; we would lose trust when we change something and don't post it. We often pivot balance changes as internal testing happens (or based on your feedback here!). The current method is to try to get you high level goals with Road Ahead posting, then work toward them internally with each release. I think something like a quarterly AMA makes a lot of sense, there are details to work out however to ensure we deliver what you are looking for with the efficiency required to keep working on what you want us doing. We will also have to be very clear that not everything can/will be answered; something as positively intentioned as an AMA can leave people still feeling unheard because we cannot get to every question.
Please keep posting your thoughts, your videos, your strategies. It all is absorbed by the team and helps understand what players are doing and feeling across every age and skill level!

We just released the first of many replay-improving releases, as noted in the Replay Update post. The report screen changes are great feedback, and have been added to a list as noted elsewhere. As long as communications are positive and respectful of everyone else here, we welcome it and are receptive!

my question is if you have one person that takes the final decision or is it something you all decide together by debating or voting if you can't make up your mind?

While it depends on the work item, generally the process is that heads of multiple departments meet weekly to discuss priority and changes to the various short/long term roadmaps. I'll note that Harlem provides feedback from you all, even if he can't respond to everything. From priority comes planning, if we cannot resource a particular item, we'll move to the next on the list that we can.

First of all the Rebalancing is just another big mistake the nerfing of fighters leave offensive with nothing it took a lot of time and resources to strengthen the fighters now they have become just a rookie and useless , increase of decreasing the the fighters damaged increase the air defence damage, and why the bomber like margin is given to fighter against air defence, drone command and city center how do you expect us to counter them even in real combat fighter deals with air defence and drone command center before army moves in please make changes after asking the players

Alright i am cool most of time. Plus you are one of the few to actually respond to any question about replays and war battle reports.

I would like to suggest if BHG wants trust to slow the roll on planned changes. Players across all levels are very much in doubt they can trust BHG. This nerfing of fighters when it should have been bombers without warning was big mistake for trust. Then before players can even adjust BHG is basically turning game on head with Mythical Artifacts which players have repeatedly said they did not want. BHG needs to realize trust is easy to lose and hard to get back. Please consider slowing the roll before all trust lost.

Again thank you for actually responding

You counter by changing, adapting - complaining won't get it done especially when you know they're not going back.
