What's Your Ideal Video Reward?

[Warriortoad]

How about improving the villa chest. The rewards for it are garbage, plus getting a villa is impossible

 

[Young kelly]

Crowns mostly then troop tactics, council card can also do but not common councillors

 

[Menaxa]

Crowns, legendary tokens, speed ups, blessings not available in temple, like air training and instant retrain. Mercenaries are only nice if you would finally give out Type 99 Tank contracts, which you totally forgot to add to the game i guess.


Super useless:
Recruits other than heavy tanks, or any kind of planes.

Nice if you added:
Björn upgrade material, T99 type tank contracts,

Why are speed ups not even an option in the poll? They should be #1 easily and then crowns and troop tactics. Stop giving so many lame, pointless councilor cards…completely worthless with the current % chances of actually getting rare or higher.

Speed ups is a very fair call out here. We're certainly taking note to these responses that everyone has been sharing in addition to the poll. We'll certainly forward these suggestions to the team and it might be something we include for future polls.

Greetings Leaders!

We’ve been plugging away at preparing for Drone Age and one thing has stood out to us that could perhaps use an update alongside it. Video Rewards have become a daily part of logging in, and we want to be able to reward that time spent with things that are worthwhile to you!

That being said, we wanted to give the community the opportunity to have a say in what rewards you’ll see in the future. Out of these six categories, what would you like to see the most?

Tokens, Crowns, Black Hawk Medics, Ikes, General TTs

It gladdens me to hear you think that it's a fair callout.

I know it seems like the player base does nothing but whine and moan about speed-ups, TTs, and other assorted sundries, but it's not without reason. At Cold War Age, we're staring down the barrel of 2 week times for upgrades, while only receiving 5 and 30 minute speedups that are supposed to be rewards, and single ones at that. Appreciate the thought, but those do nothing for us, leaving the higher ages to feel like we've been a bit snubbed. Almost better to give us nothing instead of something useless.

The same goes for the rest of the rewards. They just seem like they're a remnant of years past, when they still mattered for lower ages, but weren't updated to keep pace. No one in the Information Age gives a hoot about a 5 minute speedup, or Pirates that can't do diddley against an opponent. We don't care about mercs, recruits, or trade goods. We deal with that on our own. We need museum supplies, tokens, speed-ups, TTs that work.

We don't need Generals for rewards, just really, really want them. I'd rather have more unique troops that fill niche roles, take TTs back towards what they're supposed to be; a problem solver. A prime example would be the Spy, which is fairly useless, but could be awesome. Currently, it's no good because it needs fighter protection, which it can't get because they'll die trying to protect it, while failing miserably to do so. Remove the defender spawner sabotage aspect, make them just go after traps and not trigger spawners, except for Fort Generals like Paras, and suddenly you've got a monkey wrench to toss into the defense works. Flipside of using such a troop would be the immense time involved, threatening star completion and increased war times. That's the kind of TT we want.

I know you have to keep it fair, and it's hard to do across the ages, but maybe the rewards team can look into a tiered reward system? I know it's possible for something like that, because lower ages will have different event tasks, such as building Cavalry troops instead of Heavy Tanks because they don't have access to a Factory yet. Maybe it won't be perfect, but it's gotta be better than what we've got.

 

[Storminoli]

The only answer that should be here is legendary tokens

Troop tactics are good.
Would like to see more instant retrain blessings, particularly 8 hours duration, it's virtually impossible to get value from 24 hour blessings.
Also, on a similar subject, at Marco Polo mart, could you please make the troop chest for 400 rubies more appropriate for Information Age players.

Thank you for the detail here, it’s truly helpful! It’s definitely a discussion worth having. Sorry it’s kind of a repeat on my first response, but I genuinely love and appreciate thought provoking conversation around Dominations especially around the betterment of the experience for all players involved.

Fair constructive criticism I don’t see as whining and complaining. If you’re passionate about a game and love to play it’s only natural to express you want it to be better! So seriously, feedback like this I really appreciate and the team does as well. It shows you really care just like we do.

1-hr loot blessing

 

[FelipeXIX]

Legendary tokens, Taipei oil shipments, speed-ups (minimum 6 hrs), crowns, then troop tactics, and please keep up the food/gold for oil trades.

 

[Spaceboy]

I want to ones that are not in your list

 

[danron1376]

legendary tokens for sure. also, I like that you can trade X amount of food for x amount of oil. it really helps the lower ages. i'm not liking the council cards. i actually don't bother getting them.

i agree with the poster that pointed out that some ads are just too long. i don't know about others but i don't even watch the ads. it's easy not to look at your screen and be doing something else. shorter ads (10 seconds long) would actually make me watch and also not be bothered when a long ad runs but the reward doesn't even register.

the ads are getting worse and worse. That's a fact. I also do not watch them....

 

[Nobody]

for me in the earlier updates you can get rubys,advanced factory troop recruitments,air troop recruitments and other troop tactics besides MBT army or Hellenic hellfighters.they are better than crowns or the silly council recruitments.the ad is worth a premium recruitment,in my eyes.

Ideally make this feature working and alive for all players again, asking for rewards when the feature is not working doesn’t make any sense at this time. Waiting for the fix few months, nothing has changed. No instant retrains, no free videos =no rewards, no tokens. Introducing new age in the few weeks will just bring plenty of different bugs again...
Thanks for understanding.

 

[danron1376]

you still get good rewards on them so I "watch" them. i have more than 1 account so i would start an ad with one account and just battle with the other. no need to watch the ad.
