View Full Version : Is War is Dying?

I'm not trolling or looking to get flamed. Battle weekends were supposed to be the ultimate team events...Show off your fancy stats, going heads up with rival teams and talking smack after. Guess the point I'm making... without a boycott, scores are around half of what they are normally are. It's very difficult to spend a couple hundred gold(for me) or multiple vaults for big timers with temporary mods and terrible prizes compared to other events. Especially with the two major Events Epic and Raid bosses are base off your Raw Attack or some form of them. I hope future Battles will carry better prizes or mods that will be effect different aspect of Crime city besides % Def or Att.

For a lot of people (majority?) the battles are the LEAST favorite event.

Let's face it... aside from bragging rights, wars don't really add much anymore. Now this game is all about waiting for the next time they give us a way to farm an infinite amount of weapons in the next tier of stat inflation. It's cheaper, too.

I think the use of intel hasn't helped. It removed much of the team approach and replaced it with mindless attacking. Maybe that was part of the reason for the accomplice fiasco?

Dipstik
05-04-2015, 08:19 AM
Heh... I agree with that. I was in a top ten team at the start, then I spent a long time in gold-free syndicates before going back to a competitive team. I was amazed at how much more precise the intel has gotten.

War weekends are still my favorite event and where I spend the most gold. War prizes have always sucked which I've never understood, but thats the way it's always been. As Dipstick said, bragging rights plain and simple. That's what war weekends are about, climbing the ladder and attracting new members based off your rank. Maybe I'm in the minority but I still think it's the funnest. RB 2nd.

The war replaced the pvp events. Pvp was so popular that gree gave out virtually nothing in prize value yet we played and spent some gold.

War is probably still most popular event so now they can give out token prizes.

Definitely agree with intel spreadsheet/Dockbot have dulled the war experience. Within first hours of Wars, Top 50 teams are scouted. Simply find the most delicious targets on Intel, and Proceed to tap and refill or use any strategy you choose.

Wrong.

The great Indian Nation is still alive and kicking. We choose which events to toss our money at and war is not one of them. We are still a top 100 team in war and top 50/75 in SA when prizes are worth our time.

We complete Raid Boss / All days of epic boss / SA streaks and SLTQ.

Like I said. War is just not worth our time or effort.

Indians as a whole were never the biggest spenders in the game. A few spent big; others less so. Fight Club (comprising almost all the real big spenders) was put together with the sole purpose of beating Indian Nation when the syndicate wars began.

It is funny how you all say Indian Nation™ are irrelevant now, but here you are still talking about us. Other than SAS and TAW, who else gets that attention? HTC Blue once, when lots of forum regulars were members. Now it's another refuge for spenders either retired from or unable to get into the top two, who cares. :)

1) One of your members, your leader even, is the one who brought up the subject of indian nation in this thread. People have a tendency to respond to comments posted with at least semi-relevant replies.
2) Who else gets attention? Any syndicate that chooses to come to the forum and post about themselves. It's not always good attention, but that distinction is irrelevant.

Third party app on a third party chat app. It's against the ToS to use a third party app to modify the actual game. Saying you can't use a third party app within another third party app is like saying you can't use 3-ply when you "you know what". None of Gree's business.

ooooh, so two 3rd party apps cancel out each other. Got it! JK.

My syndicate is not dependent on DocBot, so I really don't know or care too much.

Yeah, dockbot is for lazy people with a little spare change laying around.

Scouting the good old fashioned way is where the fun is. For the first day or so... Then it's mostly repeat match ups and you can just reuse your own intel.

I can tell you for fact that has nothing to do with using a VPN for watching video advertisements.

The link deals with account sharing and proxy servers. A VPN isn't a proxy server. There is a difference. Your information is correct in what it relates to. Unfortunately, it is unrelated to VPN usage and does not apply here.

Might want to do some research and educate yourself.

Well that's pretty different from saying people can NOT use VPN to watch videos. Can NOT means it doesn't work. And it does work. If someone has to be reported before this becomes an offence, unless they go around telling or showing others, nobody will ever know.

So people CAN use VPN to watch videos. Just because people aren't "technically allowed" to do something doesn't mean they cannot do it anyways.

Actually my guess is that the amount of gold given out by those videos is tracked easily. The most I've ever gotten in one day I think is 40, and I think that's a hard ceiling. If someone managed to get 200 gold in one day, I bet they get caught.

I never said that's who CC is "for". I've said that's who Gree preys on to earn a living. I know and am friends with many people who play freemium games, none of whom are dumb enough to actually pay anything for them.

If prizes will continue to be unattractive top 25 will soon have a problem. Many will step down and use little to no gold in war, just like SA. SA used to have big scores, but with 1-2% mods it's quite unattractive. Same will happen in war.
