    Frontline Match Ups

    Anyone else having an issue actually getting a match up. Been waiting over 30 minutes for Frontline and all we see is message 'war will begin shortly'.

    My guess is that it depends a lot on where you fit in the food chain. I don't play either of my factions in FL any more because the only strategy is tap like made in the last 2-4 minutes which requires no strategy. Plus at the teirs both factions fell into matchups average 30-60 minutes so it was a waste of time.

    I'm with you, brother.
    FL used to be better, not great, but better.
    Sitting for 50-55 minutes erupting in a 5-10 minute flurry of tapping is boring.
    Plus, the prizes in a Cracker Jack box or a jawbreaker machine are better.

    Gee, dad, they're swell. LOL

    FL could be trimmed to 15 minutes.

    That way for those afflicted with the worst cases of TAPITIS could get three or four action packed FL sessions in every hour.

    There's really no need for FL to an hour.
    Truth be told, neither should WD be an hour.
    The same result would be achieved, for those that seek and value such results, would be achieved in 15 minute increments.

    If revenue is an issue, for those who worry about such things, more money would be tapped away, certainly not less.
    It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.

    SPEND it, if you got any left.

    Just curious...What level are your factions? We don't have a problem with match-ups, but we are currently in the 350 range. Totally agree; 60 min for this event is too long.
    MW: 723 733 538 / 766 013 376 / 837 581 025
    MW: Faction 48th TFW 326 189 720[/SIZE][/FONT

    Maxed bonuses: Output, building defense, health regen, all defense, Infantry, Ground Attack, Air Attack and Sea Attack.

    Try Empires and Allies...you actually get to control attacks and need to use strategy!

    You ask if anyone is having problems getting a match up. Yes, for the last 5-6 FL events, we've gone to entire event with no match up. Gree says nothing is wrong. At least our score is easy to add up. "0+0+0+0+0+0 = 0". Gree did compensate us once but since then nothing. So, yeah just a few minor match up issues. Oh well

    I've read the same issue again and again. Have you tried to all move to another faction just for the FL event? Sure, there is an FLTQ going on, so you need to coordinate timing, but rather than saying every frontline event doesn't work, try to figure out a solution yourself. Don't look to gree or you may be waiting forever.

    problem with that suggestion is with the fltlq and fl beings two days that is 2 days they would be locked in another faction abosilutly no work on fltq.. personally we are in top 100 we get our match ups pretty quickly think longest wait was ten minutes.. sucks that others are having theproblems

    Yeah lets shorten FL and WD... why not make each match last one minute and the event last one hour. Of course the regen would need to be adjusted. Maybe that will satisfy.
    LOOOK INTO MY EYE...
    Join my faction--
    Must: use groupMe, make weekly donation, be active... simple as that.
    No: absurd WD, stat, level, daily donation minimums here.
    Leader matches all cash donations!
    PM me for more information.

    Problem is the level factions are at determines matches. I don't doubt that top 100's are ok. It's down in the top 1000 that we have the problems from what I used to see. Granted this may wind up being a moot point as more players just say screw it and stop participating or as I suspect gree want is for them to be forced to join a higher level faction if it has space, sort of herding the addicts into the same corner...

    There is some strategy involved. We don't wait until last 5 minutes with full deploys like many do. We haven't been taken over on the nodes we want because of that strategy. It is obvious when other teams will do it so you prepare for it. We are close to top 100, 127 this past FL. We have withstood Top 50 teams like SUP subs and won because they waited until last minute. FL is my favorite event because you don't have to be on your phone or device every other hour like WD. We fight every 3.5 hours and do well. We haven't had problems with match ups but if I had to wait 30 minutes or not even being able to be matched this game will be like a fart in the wind.
