I love this game and to be honest could we please get walls to balance food and gold alittle better. There were a lot of us stuck at IA befor global came out that had zero use for food. I'm getting back to that point again. Like why can't they cost so much food and so much gold. Like 3 mill in gold is 1.5 of each. It's a middle ground between nothing but food for walls. It's just there's no gold balance in this game at all. And yes some of you don't like the idea but let's get a better balance make people act want to protect there mills again or like me someone please just attack be for my food

FINALLY you guys are all realising this is a REAL mayor issue within the game, when I say this, so many people saying me mad, now with Global Age prices, and new walls, and looking at all those cheaters bases with max walls, what SERIOUS argument can be made to sell food for walls isn't a TOTAL must at this point of the game?

->Food for walls, another step for fightning cheaters, like they are now, walls last levels are only for cheaters. I suspect a lot of everyone "legit" trying to sell me this is the word idea ever, specially when other games this kind had to adopt this approach a lot of time ago, as it is the ONLY eficent way to balance food-gold and make economy balanced...

Anyways I'm glad I'm not now the only one asking for this, let's keep this up so Nexon finally hear us.

Nothing except for food for walls to bring Aitor out of the dark. :)

In fact I think I read more the forums that I enter now in the game, lol, but actually I just made a false retreat, a Hitler-like one :D:D:D, I have made it seem like I drop because you guys know better, but I'm in the dark waiting, letting the seed of the anger towards Nexon grow, and when you all convice yourselves that food for walls is the solution to ALL problems, I will then be there, coming back with my outstanding rhetoric to be hailed as the leader that shall guide you to a new brigther glorious era for the Nations, with food for walls. :cool::cool:

(Well, how what's that movie I just made? ;) Lol, like it seems a current topic, with the movie Look Who's Back and the politics situation, lol...). Nice to hear from you again Y.

Hi Aitor, glad to have you back and that your quest for food walls is still alive and kicking :rolleyes:

I have a favor to ask. I'd really appreciate if you'd leave off the Hitler references. Really upsetting to me.

1. Not all people with max walls are cheaters.
2. How does food for walls, fight cheaters or people with max walls? It doesn't if you ask me. It just helps other players progress further (and decrease financial support for the game), but doesn't fight rich or cheating players.

Well your right to a point. I'm not suggesting this to stop cheaters or rich people. I'm talking in line of more balance for gold and food. I'm my opinion gold needed is about 50% oil needed is about 35% food needed 15% The economy in this game is broken. The oils food numbers could be a little different but not by much. It just seems like there should be better balance if not walls then change some other things to food to take the pressure off of gold

I was just responding to Aitor :)
I agree that a rebalance is needed. Not sure if half food for walls is the right thing (though I won't complain), but absolutely food should have more uses ... like how it used to be for generals past lvl 10 ... they already made that rebalance to make it worse lol. Restoring food for generals would help alleviate the full mills (at minimum before generals ride tanks anyways).

And IA level tools take longer to clear a forest than MA tools. The game is rife with madness. Madness I tells ya !!!

I wouldn't go so far as to say nexon should change wall upgrades from gold to food. I don't want everyone I hit to have level 13 walls. But I have to admit that they do have to address this imbalance of food to gold ratio.

It would be impractical for them to change some of their upgrade items from gold to food. Their CS would be flooded with emails from people who have already done those gold upgrades, insisting on refunds.

What they can do instead is to increase the caravan production output. (Yeah yeah.... I know many of you are going WTF!) That point is more about putting the gold back into player circulation. We already had that discussion before during the X2 rss event.
Or.... reduce the gold required upgrades by a %. That in my view would be more practical.

Agree and disagree first gold is not somthing players can demand s refund for since its earned va raids caravans ect. But wait you can trade crowns for gold. Yes I understand that but how many people with legit walls have act paid crowns for walls. It's pretty simple as all they would have to say is do to a need for rebalancing we will be changing such from gold to food. Or say instead of generals needing to be upgraded with oil you can now do it with food ect. Any way to balance the game to improve is not cause for any kind of refund. As per say why can't items cost more the just one item? Why can't walls cost so much food and gold. Takes workers to do food to feed them takes money for supply's gold to buy them lev10 walls now cost 1.5 gold 1.5 food no cause for refund since they still cost the same number 3m plus if they spent crowns on the gold they would have had to spend crowns on the food as well. I'm not saying people still won't request a refund but it's ezer to debuff that by saying it still cost the same amount as what u paid but we are balancing the cost of what resource is used.

And on a further note it's pretty simple to change a food gold balance. There is no reason why every building in this game can't cost so much food and so much gold. Balance is key! I have max food right now and no real way to get rid of it. Yes I have a few buildings I could still upgrade that cost food but why should I do that when I have much needed towers mortars to upgrade. Now more then likely nexon will make the excuse that there is a gold balance if we would all upgrade the tactics well only 3 are really used, sabotage armor and betrayal. If your using the rest of them good for you but my guess is it's unlikely so if they want to force us to upgrade them find a way to make them useful. Back to the point the game needs a bit of rebalance. And there's more then just food and gold. All the new units most arnt being used at all and paratroopers are the ones I see used the most. Correct me if I'm wrong howitzersor arty tanks med heavy riflemen are the most used units in this game y try to force us to use other units when they just arnt as effective. Balance and this game needs a better balance across the board

Honestly, I'm fine with food being largely useless. Sure, it's wasteful to just throw it away after a raid, but on the other hand on those rare occasions when I do need to spend a lot of food I always have it ready. And being not having to worry about defending my food makes it easier to lay out my base so it does defend the resources that actually matter to me.
