Why changing the login procedure?

BHG changes the whole game login procedure. Why in the first place ?
- why messing with the whole account base mgt? The risk is too high
- why this xsola login thing? What is this external service?
- why dominationsworld? Who asked for this?
- we are playing for 9 years with multiple accounts? Wh now this becomes urgent to change?
- is there nothing more important to do in the game to improve or fix?
- sorry, but there is more behind this stor that you are not telling us. The exit from Nexon is probably linked to it. the Fact that you oblige people to register with another account is really strange. This will become a paying game?

You are not obliged of course, but giving more background information on the upcoming change would secure rhe Player base and give some extra trust ( if this is still possible).

up to you…

In the past, those of us that had multiple accounts, could switch from one base to another from in-game functionality.
Now, after google made changes in the login process, we have to log off, rerun the game , select the base we want to load, load the previously base first, then asked if we wanna load XXX base, select Yes and then we will see the base. This is horrible and unacceptable.
That is why they are moving everyone on their own base selection method and I stand by their side on this.

Also, dominations is a game that is not favorable to read as all the letters are too small. And guess what??!! Most of the players are grown ups over 40 ysrs old that have trouble reading artifact lines and ingame chat. So, having dominations run on a big PC screen is a blessing for all of us. If only we could fight from a PC....

my 2 cents

Is this mandatory as I play on an iPad with my 2 accounts?

Hi Spaceboy,

I gave an answer to some of your questions here. This is a massive undertaking that is required of us to do as a result of our transition to a new parent company and does have a more immediate deadline. Sure, there are other things that we could tackle and work on, we tried to address some of what we're still working on in our AMA last month, but this is a momentary focus point resulting from the Long Tale Games/Xsolla partnership.

As far as I understand the google documentation, the new system also offers an option to switch quickly.
BHG just decided not to integrate it into their game.
I thought that we would be able to switch ingame, according to Harlem's post here.
"Players will have the ability to link all their previous accounts (iOS, Android, or TOY) into a single Full DomiNations World Account that allows them to switch bases directly in the game"

That functionality is coming in the new mobile release this coming week.

Thanks for the confirmation. Let's hope all goes well and the 'fix' fixes everything - and you guys can get on with fixing bugs like the broken heli range.

@mduffor one of my teammate asked me to contact you since I'm one of those players stuck in the limbo with logins. Over this weekend I fixed my dominationsworld web login - unbeknownst to me, that broke my ability to switch all my 3 accounts in iOS and my ability to meaningfully participate in Wars and do war hits. The accounts are "BratBoy", "KnightFury" and "SmokyBunny" (all auto age) - could you please help?
