When your coalition partner did that, could you see it too?

yes

I felt like Snowden when he first saw how much the government (US) spies on us. It felt illegal lol.

wait until you realize how utterly broken revealing troops with spies is in combo with radar

Exactly! That's how I learned just how powerful it is. I've never used it and I never will (just as a point of pride).

See, that's the way I do it. I feel like that is at least fair because it can both be countered (using stealth troops and counterspies) *and* it is much more realistic.

Face it, the game is pay to win. The thing is that actions are so expensive in gold, that not that many people use them.

i object. They are so cheap that player overuse them and spoil the fun for everyone.

I think the important thing is the difference between: pay to win and pay to have a good time/have fun

I don't see why people complain about golders; in fact I pity golders.

They will spend; I will quit, they will end up spending money to beat a miserable AI.

That being said, I've played several games without seeing any so I'm guessing they're not as rampant as some think.

I love golders...and that is not being ugly to anyone. I use very little and I try to make the game more enjoyable and challenging to all who defeat me. Most do but still "someone has to lose"It's not a problem. Just have fun and be civil. It's a great game .

Reading the earlier post, I did not realize how much people were spending to win ??? I just figured it was a game, a way to pass the time . For some it must be a job.

What are the devs doing here

bobqz · Feb 6th 2021, 4:11am

elj, it is a job for them. But I dont think they are playing a game either.

Unfortunatelly game is becoming famous as a Pay to Win on most game groups.

Pay to bomb airports , reveal all units, regenerate infinitelly are features known as pay to win in other war games. mThe is no strategy while soemone keep using gold unlimitedly.

Price for getting some dollars is too high for the playbility.
Who keep the game are who spend, yes, but the others can't just become fresh meat.

The early heavy golders that blow a game apart in the fist day or 2 are my fav - I just send straight to archive. Means I have not invested wasted time in the game ^^.

I get a bit unnerved when I take off a bunch of HP from a unit and the guy immediately repairs it.

At the end of the day without golders the is no game so its all good.

Alot of sore losers who see someones paying to win and you just run away?

For me the most feared thing is intelligence, that reveals all units, has to be the most frustrating, but i believe thats how Nazi Germany lost, because the allies had the reveal all intelligence and the Germanys didn't even know.

I dont think this game is as "pay to win" as people believe, unless your blowing huge amounts of gold, the advantage you get is minimal.

But reveal all, its hard, they know all your units, they know all your movements, they see all your strength and weaknesses while your literally blind and its not just the player, but the whole alliance and further more, that intelligence can be shared over chat.

You don't even need to pay to win, just join an alliance and spy, relay the informantion. With things like discord, is really easy to share images with your friends, alot of games i find easier without help, seems pretty commonplace for the above strategy to be used against you. Hence why its my most fear usage of gold and abuse of the alliance function.

Personally i like the pay to win function, it adds another aspect to the game. Its like a rally cry that can stop your aggression dead in its tracks forcing you to think on your feet. No plan survives first contact with the enemy!

Those are the most satisfying to stick around in on the off chance that the early golder goes MIA, which has happened about 1/4 of the time in games I've been in. And if they do stick around and make it to you, you can surprise them by being active. Then it *really* gets fun because, let's face it, most golders really aren't very good. :evil:

You give me hope. Next time I’ll stick around when I see a golder...

Agree
Horrifically disagree. What would the game be if nobody except people who paid to win played?

Still a game
Just with 0.1% of the playerbase

where is the strategy when your airports are destroyed in one click using 2.5k gold?

where is the strategy when the enemy can see all your units with 15k gold?

where is your efforts and tactics when the enemy can heal all troops unlimitedly?

I want to talk specifically about these questions.
