I got through 1m 50 seconds of the update to GBG video, then had enough. I see trials are being introduced. I used to like GE until trials came along. Same happening with GBG. Settlements was another fave area of mine, until timings were changed to 5 hours and multiples thereof. Can't get it co-ordinated now. GBs are much of a waste of time. Events are rehashed version of an original. I've just about given up - put all collections on 1 day as I honestly can't be bothered to log on and play now. Countdown to the end of my playing this has already started.

we are all doing that now i come on very rare i can not be bothered these days i still do my fights in gbg but it just gives me more time away from the game now and i will not be spending on diamonds there is no point in having powerful buildings as your fights just get nerfed down when the game devs decide

I took a look through all the settlements (they used to be a favourite part of the game for me) and specifically rewards in terms of main and secondary settlement reward, plus emmisaries for the town hall. Having done them all before in an earlier life, they used to be great, worth the effort and added to the gameplay. Now playing through again, none of them are worth it anymore. Literally none of the settlement buildings are worth the weeks it takes to get through all the upgrades. Good grief.

I find them helpful for the QI boosts. That said, there is more than enough event buildings with good QI boosts nowadays that it will soon be tome to get rid of them yet again.
 
lol checked what i need frags of in what can be bought in GBG and they are eather costing to much or not worth it so for now after having bought 600 diamonds and 3 TG's am back to buying diamonds this is bull-crap at least i'll be getting more diamonds then i used to but side rewards if recent cost to much thats my feedback after almost one complete round of this new GBG and i'll eventualy after a few rounds of GBG be caped in buying diamonds so those coins will be stocking up till cap gets reset

Think with these proposed GBG changes I will be giving up, Inno is systematically killing the game, think I will start by pulling out of GBG, it's a total cluster f**k already, inno don't listen, so no matter what feedback they get from beta it will go live at some point, they may tweak it a bit but whatever happens don't think I will be around, still it's been a entertaining 6 years, sadly however, for all the wrong reasons, will just play the game my way until I finally go and ignore any inno changes, a friend of mine in the UK is now compiling a case of corporate theft against Inno and the owners of FOE, to be ready in case any compensation from inno isn't in line with the losses players will be hit with, he will be looking at all aspects of the changes and thinks he may have a case under European law to force inno to pay in real money, not just fps or diamonds, I will be keeping a a close watch on how that progresses.

They've made collecting your city a thing you actually dread to do, that's sort of the beginning of the end right there. So many fragments and kits to assemble, and everything makes so much stuff it doesn't feel like it matters
That's a sign of game inflation - the classic Monty Haul syndrome. It's fun to get unbalancing rewards for a while, but then the only way to go is upward and it fairly rapidly becomes simply tedious.
Inno periodically try to rebalance things, usually to the accompaniment of howls of outrage from those who are, for example, farming hundreds of repeating quests per day or churning through thousands of GBG fights, but the genie is pretty well out of the bottle, and has been for years. It's one reason I don't min-max everything; that's not *fun*.

They lost their way long ago. It started as building game. Build your empire though the ages. That was their moto. And GB's were in the center of everithing. FORGE of empire. Forge points was the main thing to get. Now nobody cares for anything of that. Just build-up combat bonus to endlessly click in GbG. And what is the goal of the game players should try to get? Nobody knows.

Actually everybody can know, cause each player can set his/her own goal. You think forgepoints was the main thing to get, so that must have been your goal. I never really cared about that.
 
Isn't that what players have been asking for, for a very long time. The most seen complaint for years has been that the game took up way to much of their time. At least something about that has been done now.
yea loosing less time on game means i have more time for real life am realy loosing interest in FoE cause of their stupidity that makes me enjoy real life instead of hiding in a game
