Equal chances in Neighbourhood

DeletedUser11930

The fact that people can get troops from many eras ahead and still be left in a neighbourhood that is below their troop capability makes for an unfair/unbalanced neighbourhood

This factor should be taken into account when merging hoods instead of subjecting players to theft of stuff from city when attacked by much higher value troops but you look at city of attacker and for example its a CA city with PE troops
If you have troops higher than your technological era you should be in a neighbourhood equal to your troop capability or the alternative you cannot get troops higher than the technological era you are presently in

and don't forget the great buildings.
those must also be considered in fair balanced neighbourhoods

high arcs in low era hoods always steal top places in all GB and the rest of the neighbors don't have the chance to get a good place

so if you have GB higher than your technological era you should be in a neighbourhood equal to your GB capability too

Smart thinking. Players that do not like the era they are in can delete their troops and go back to a lower era neighbourhood..

Not to mention that having two military units from one or two eras ahead by no means puts you on equal footing with players who are actually one or two eras ahead.

Here's a BETTER idea.

Suggestion: Only allow players to plunder or defend using current aged troops and below. There. Problem fixed.

Or you know, use the competition as incentive to learn from those players and improve your own gameplay

that still has the unfair GB factor

attackers with Kraken and AO and Castle and Aachen in iron age still have an extreme advantage

so if you allow to use higher era GB advantages there is no reason to forbid main questline advantages (and higher troops can only be gained in that questline)

for GB everybody is saying: everybody can build them
so here is the answer to troops from higher eras: everybody can make those quests and get those troops

yeah personally I see no problem with the troops. I don't consider it unfair for someone to to be better at something then you are. That's just life. Put in the effort, get the reward. Don't work out how something works, don't get to be efficient at it.
 

DeletedUser11930

A better idea is no GB's until you reach the era they are from are accessible and same goes for troops i mean come on how can you recruit troops that you don't have barracks for or unlocked yet lets make it a bit more realistic

Yeah if the game didn't allow you to build future GBs until you get to that era we'd play the game quite differently. The focus on GB contributions for advanced GBs to get the BPs would be lessoned until you get closer to that age given you wouldn't get a return on your FPs until you reach that age

Personally I think a player should be given the option to participate in PvP or not at the point where, at the moment, they become automatic targets. Once the decision has been made it is irreversible. Many players wijust want to build and progress, without the PvP aspect ..... others enjoy the PvP, but players should have the choice.
If a player chooses to take part, then they have to accept that higher level players may wish to plunder their city. They will also be placed in neighbourhoods with like minded players, preferably similar levels.
Most GB's have a specific age attached to them, so should only be available at that age. Getting the blueprints is fine, but actually building the GB shouldn't be possible before the attached age is reached.
Later age troops should only be limited to only from the age above your own age.

The bullying problem was fixed very recently, now only players in your own age can attack you. Which means you can get those same troops they have and put them in your city defences, along with ritual flames and watchtowers. When you're attacked, now you can actually learn something about attack and defence strategies by watching the replays and learn how to be a better player. If you have the next age troops and a few rogues you now have a chance to get revenge, something you could very rarely do when attacked by higher age bullies. Sure glad that's been fixed.

Not true.

Which means you can get those same troops they have and put them in your city defences, along with ritual flames and watchtowers.

And you will still lose.

When you're attacked, now you can actually learn something about attack and defence strategies by watching the replays and learn how to be a better player.

How do you know the player attacking you used skill or auto?

If you have the next age troops and a few rogues you now have a chance to get revenge, something you could very rarely do when attacked by higher age bullies. Sure glad that's been fixed.

Those next age troops will be unattached. Not smart to lose them in an attack. Smart to put them in your defence.

Are you actually playing this game????

Or use 1 with 7 rogues and find a neighbour with 2 spearf def to get pvp points in next age's tower .
