I started playing 2 years ago - I was impressed by the grafics and the gameplay.
I came from Clash of Clans and I was quite a good player at Clash of Clans then.
Building my town, upgrading everything - yeah I knew it and it was fun. Even when leveling up meant times got longer and longer - I learned to sit that out so its not frustrating to wait for 10 days for an upgrade to be finished - because during that time you usually can play to have fun.
But that changed totally over the last year !
Its no more fun to attack others at all - why ? Because the troops have become totally stupid !
Its absolutly non forseable how they will act - especially the "gather together" command is totally USELESS.
How often I used that command to gather my troops - only to watch that they dont react at all - this bug is in the game for years and havnt been fixed at all.
How often have I gathered to notice theres no initial acceleration - and no theres no slowing down obstacles in the path - the acceleration just dont kick in - again a bug thats not fixed for long.
And how often did I gather my troops - only to watch them walk back the same way they had come after gathering - even theres buildings narer to fight - they just love to slowly walk back from where I gathered them - and sure they dont defend themselves then and get killed.
2 years ago also troops were smart enough to bundle their forced to go thru ONE piece of wall together.
Today my machine guns fight their wall while the tanks fight the wall 2 pieces to the left and my artillery the one 2 pieces to the right - and even when the artillery got their ice down only the tanks advance truh this gap but my machine guns still fight their piece ... it just shows that NEXON doesnt test and doesnt care at all !
Last bug I noticed - an enemys MK1 came from a bunker and my troops totally ignored it. My machine-guns just walked by him on their way to somewhere else - the only missing was them greeting him while being slaughtered. Yes you read it right - they passed the MK1 maybe in 2 fields distance and did nothing - ususlly they should stop and fight ....
Also nowadays troops tend to NOT stay together - my artillery loves to go right while my tanks go left and my rifles just do what they want - so whatever corner I start placing my troops its impossible to have them orderly attacking an enemy - after 10-15 seconds its pure chaos - and theres NO WAY to order them because gather together doesnt work as expected.
That way my now maxed global troops usually have no chance to win against any other global player - and I dont believe that its me being too stupid to play the game.
I can only place my troops strategically at start - and then watch what happens - but if the troops have no order at all ....
Thats why I noticed that I got mostly attacked by stronger players only - atomic age or higher - like me the other players noticed that theres no real chance to fight a player your strength because its impossible with these dumb troops !
I liked the game - thats why I bought the 2 extra houses and also some crowns from the shop.
In my understanding its ok to pay the programmers for their work that way.
But today - I would like to buy the residence to have 3 more workers - but I wont do that.
I noticed that NEXON doesnt fix the bugs and doesnt improve the gameplay.
Instead they bring out add-ons to buy and add-ons only to make money like the museum.
Its sad to watch another game go down the drain and getting slaughtered for moneymaking only.
