i really wish you would test it before running the event,what ever happend to not running the event for a while? my castle looks someone pissed off a cave full of dragons and ran into my castle

Every single one of your buildings would be on fire at 100% if that happened. It just looks like you were defeated...

i like to war with real players not a computer.esp the computer that is selling me tools and troops. with incoming demons and armor tools. does this make sense? i write in with proof i lost troops and have to show bank statement to receive demons i buy, and the game gets them for free to attack us with.

Well I really like this event , it will teach my lower players how too attack and how too defend , be a good practice for them for sure . I really like the reward are very good and I like it give you the honor points also , could help give my members the chance reach terrible title if they attack those castle often and at the same time the points are been adding in the alliance level

only think I don't really like is why are they all around our main they should be more spread around the map or some at 75 miles 20miles 200 miles ETC... anyway I do really like the update , hopefully it not here too stay but could come around every month or so

Maniachist · 27.06.2014

I CAN'T believe the outright stupidity of GGS.

We were in the middle of setting up defences for 6 incoming attacks when you took the server offline for an hour. Why didn't you pause the attacks? We lost them all, and several thousand defenders. Really pissed at the sheer incompetence displayed here. This seems to be the most OBVIOUS of things. Duh, is all I can say....

I agree however I hear some people are being attacked too often... I've only been attacked once so far...

legoszic (NL1) · 27.06.2014

In one day( not even yet) I think we lose more troops than on a few months .do you find this fun GGE ?beacause I see no more fun on that

Hertogin (NL1) · 27.06.2014

I would like to get some sleep now :P
Call it a break for the night and ohh fix the bug Im tired of logging in all the time just to see new attacks.
And how come some players get multiple attacks and others none at all?

dont be ridiculous you cant even hold 6k troops at green

You can easily hold that many if you have 3 8 food outposts with 16 farmhouses in each along with level 4 bakery and filled with Castle gardens/festival square.

Some players will love this event and others will hate it. Sometimes you will get a bad hand in the event. One of my members was attacked 4 times in 7 hours. He had just recently been attacked and we didnt get that much support there so he lost almost all of the troops and only had a few hundred left. We supported and won all 4 attacks but things like this really suck. For larger alliances there are about 10 attacks coming in at a time and its hard to communicate where support should go to who. But for me. I have attacked 2 of them and have not been attacked in return yet. So for me i love this event so far. I can very easily understand why some wont like it. Sometimes you get dealt a good hand and sometimes you don't. Just a part of the game

GGS has sent the USA server foreign castles marked as Russian, I am sure you are dealing with American server castles. The different alliances we have all fight or not, some act like this game is farmville, others love fighting, we just had a multi-alliance server war. I and my alliance did participate in that. so we are treating this event as a way to train our players to be ready for anything, and also support techniques. other players here are crying about this. the variables are all there, and I think this allows a different style of play , and glory with out complaints

I'm with Lenzabi on this one, and although sadly we didn't get in on the server war (God i wanted a part of that), our alliance loves a chance to stretch our troops' legs, so we're enjoying this. I for one, have not found that the attacks are very overwhelming, our alliance has been handling them fairly easily, this is a war game, so i'd say this is a nice way to get people out of farmville mode

Haha i can, this company wants to loose all its players

Hvv64 · 27.06.2014

Please stop with this event. I would like to sleep a few hours every day, i got a job wich also takes some time, i got a wife that needs some attention too. If i am being attackted 24 hours a day by somebody that i do not even know and i cannot communicate with then it is game over for me. Nobody can play 24 hours a day. Very bad event.

D0MINAT0R · 27.06.2014

This is ridiculous. Seems like just another way for GGE to make money. Some people are at war and these extra attacks (some of which are all deathly horrors with ruby tools) are preposterous. Making us defend heavy attacks as we are already defending against real players just forces us to use more tools and build more troops than we already are. I personally want to opt out of the "test run" I have other things going on other than fake players attacking me.

Blade907 · 27.06.2014

yah this is just another way of them sucking more money out of us by wasting our tools with a constant bombardment of bot attacks. Stop this event now gge!

RulerGoo (US1) · 27.06.2014

EDIT

This sucks.

GOLDNSTAR · 27.06.2014

I'm going to be quiting this game, I don't like this new system I got 10 Rusian castles within shouting distance and hit twice in less than 10 hours and I had allot of troop to defend and lost over 1400, I'm not going to keep spending money for rubies becsuse they come up with a wayu to make you spend more money and I'm not doing it. This game is expensive enough and there not getting anymore of my money.
It's like they are playing the game with us they attack us take are men and we have to turn around and spend money to hire more troops an tools only to be hit again by them.
It's stupid in my opion and anyone that continues playing is going to have to spend more money and I'm not one of them.

I thank you and your alliance for the help and info on the game it was fun while it lasted.
Sincerely Goldnstar

I'd love this, if I was all done levelling up and in a big strong alliance.

But I'm not. I'm level 34, trying to develop a baby wing of a small alliance, as well as my own castles. It is difficult to rebuild troops in small alliances. I don't have time to do it between attacks, so can't provide the support I'd like to.

I'd love this too, if I was a ruby buyer, and could replace the tools required to deal wth all the attacks easily.

But I'm not. Like most humans, I have limited resources, and am selective about what I spend on entertainment - a game that keeps getting broken, and which communicates so poorly with its player base has no chance of getting any of that budget.

The update is actually good - really horribly implemented (in the usual half-baked and contemptuous way) - but good. I would definitely have opted in, if I didn't have a bunch of other stuff I was trying to do, in-game. I like the game. But I'm tired of the contempt. No-one likes to log into a game and go "aww, what NOW?"

*grits teeth* If you actually solicited and listened to the opinions of your player base instead of treating them like rats in a laboratory, you might find it useful

slumlord w d · 27.06.2014

Has anyone been attacked unprovoked ,even if you are sure there was no 1st strike by ANYONE in your alliance? I think it is blow for blow against entire alliance. If you don't attack 1st will they attack anyway???

Endboss · 27.06.2014

Constant incoming, from crappy to very heavy attacks.
For the heavy ones you do need armourer tools to be able to win.
This is not a player attacking for honor or glory, or even personal beef.
These are bots, non human controlled castles with an infinite supply of units and tools attacking, spawned for no other reason to make real players use their tools/rubies/money.
When you beat them, a new one takes its place and repeat..

What a sad day for this game that was once a lot of fun
