Confusion and possible *cough* glitch *cough*

[Jhenry02]

You ever face a faction multiple times an event?
Happens to me all the time. But today I seen something, well something downright spooky.

I'm simple and confuse easily.
How can a team with the same players, DL, and name add players during WD?

They weren't there the first time, but we battle again and voila they have like 10 new accounts all with 1 ally. Now crazy me, I thought alright, name changes and ally drops can be useful.

But I happened to look at one feller.

That's not a name change and an ally drop.

Can someone elaborate for this old simpleton?

last wd they made changes so that factions werent completely locked anymore, they followed the rules of FA.

You can join a faction if you werent already in one but if you leave you are done.

Given all that, I cant blame you at all for not knowing because Gree just simply has given up and doesnt see a need to communicate major changes to how the game works at all. Even though changes to the game are required to be in app store releases etc they are fine with just putting whatever bs they want. They dont post ANYTHING in game, and have stopped posting any information on the forums too.

Shouldn't even show up on list till level 10

Thank you andy2,

So, that's awesome of Gree!

Let me elaborate on this stupidity.

Matchups are based on average statistics or total statistics of faction correct? We don't 100% know, well, because I don't think Gree knows.

So make a bunch of low level **** accounts with blue stacks or some other emulator and you can manipulate matchups all event.

In the immortal words of them Guinness commercial fellers.

BRILLIANT!!

I just elaborated a glitch or exploit on the forums. Can't wait to get banned again.

It's not a glitch when they let you do it.
It is a strategy, but I wasn't sure of the benefit prior to this war. It used to be you would get 200 points for hitting a low level and only 80 for Command Center. So adding +1 made no sense. But now, with the points being lower this might make more sense...

[What?]

That is the latest thing to skew the matchups. Had a team with about 12 members with 400m stats and 31 lvl 1 players. Of course no points for attacking lvl 1 players and no way of beating the real players. http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj105/slowmotionnoob/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-05/332515BB-A2A7-4CCE-A30D-B526711BE1DF.jpg (http://s270.photobucket.com/user/slowmotionnoob/media/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-05/332515BB-A2A7-4CCE-A30D-B526711BE1DF.jpg.html)

Its sad that people do this. I would kick factions out of WD if I were GREE for doing this. Its kills the spirit of the game and shows bad sportsmanship.

No, that's not sad. What's sad is the number of people infected with the belief this thingy means something of significance. It's not even a game, just a thingy.

Until GREE removes inactive accounts, Factions will continue to clone their MW app and create multiple accounts to add to their guild to lower their stat averages.

How is this a problem? Everyone in your faction has a target for easy points. Unlike before where all you could hit was a CC. Either way they will outspend you for a win.

With the new unit update unless you get final unit prize with boost trying to go for win streak or wins total is totally pointless when you can buy better units with little effort ;)

We faced a team like that. Possibly a streak team called Burning Out....they had like 20 lvl 1 Alex's. Also most had very few allies. Only a few of us could even hit them. Such a pain in the ass playing teams like that and very irritating.
