Why do we have a maximum of 500 allies?
you want players to spend gems but they pick and choose which quests to do and nobody does the normal quest chain all to avoid leveling. There is no benefit to leveling it in fact penalizes players during wars.
If you remove the ally cap and level 200 players can take 3000 units, weapons and armor to war players will race to level 200 and even spend to get there just so that they are better prepared for battle.
I think it is a great idead CC...give incentives for leveling up. Right now, it's a punishment.
Although I like the idea, my guess is the code for the game cannot handle the information 500 allies gives you. At this point it does not allow me to see all of my allies, only about 463. All of my most recent do not show up and if I go back in the list to try and remove really old ones who have stopped playing, after selecting to remove one it brings me back to the start of the list.
The race for 200 will happen if they change the level cap to 250, but I think with the smaller player base and idevices many more play in the midlevels and stop. This leaves less players to test the new content and more importantly to spend into the new content. Of course this is just my assumption and I could be incorrect.
You have 'grunts' in your army. these are free ally's provided when you complete certain quests. your grunts and allies add together to give you your actual total number of allies. That is why it only shows say '470' allies. if you then add more allies it will either add them to your list or it will simply discard them but the other person will have you as an ally.Quote:

Is the real issue here -that leveling up is a terrible thing?
Yeah and this is what I would say is a good solution for itQuote:

Gree code can't handle information period. How many major screw-ups have there been since the last war? Bwuhahaha.Quote:

IMO GREE should look into
Increasing the amount of allies (set this by tear) lvl 150 gets to have 600 allies
Lvl 175 gets 750 allies
Lvl 200 is allow 1000 allies.
Make rewards. (Unit buildings and money ) into tiers
Lvl 150 (allow the purchase of better units)
Lvl 160 allow an option of more gold buildings
Lvl 170 (unit building)
Lvl 180 gold building
Lvl 200 ( unit building - stats per unit once max out 500attack as a reward for reaching lvl 200.
Increase the lvl stats to at least 500.
It gives the senior members an incentive and at the same time they feel appreciated by new rewards.
GREE wins, players are happy!!!
Happy player , spends more on gems = happy GREE team.
fixed that for youQuote:

The number of screw ups is amazing, it feels like we actively test code for them as opposed to the engineers testing prior to release.
I think changing the level cap would come with some sort of reward and make those at 200 move up in level, some unit or new maps, but possibly not enough players to make it worthwhile for gree on the financial side. If they were to add levels and those whales started leveling up, others might start to level for whatever gain or reward they set for the 200 milestone. The problem I see, and again am only making an opinion, is that the player base much smaller without the android devices and the monetary incentive is not there for gree to expand levels.
No screw ups there. It is a rather simple process and I just spelled it out for you. It is nobodies fault but your own that you can't grasp the concept.Quote:

Once my allies reached the cap, my new allies are added but cannot be seen, I can only see new allies by removing old, but the code makes it difficult to do that. Perhaps you are not having this issue, but myself and others I have spoken with are experiencing it. As a leader it makes it hard for me to communicate in game with folks who are not on Groupme.Quote:
