    The problem with PvP events

    The event itself is great and I'm glad to see it but these type of events should exclude buildings. This was the same problem with the wind farms. People would not reset their Wind Farms which resulted in players not completing the goal. As a player, why would I reset my Command Center? Why would others do it? The collect all button would break it because most Command Centers are synced with other 24 hour buildings, like mine are.

    I would just say this is a oversight but given the news with EB overlayed with WD, I would say this is a stupid move. I'm going to do the courteous and leave mine up but thats still only one attack for that day. The building should have been a smaller building with many "Up" times during the days with no more then the hour payout buildings.

    I mean come on, did you guys take any game theory classes?

    I agree, finished the event 30 minutes ago. I'm sure it will be difficult for level 300+ players though.

    congrats on completeing it you were most likely one of the first couple hundred on when they were still up. that chances from that point went way down hill for anyone getting on a couple hours after. it is a 24 hour regen building so everyone that already got hit is done for the entire event then add in those that are collected.. within a few hours due to design flaw players are lucky to find one (and I mean LUCKY) out of 50 bases they visit and each one they claim increase the odds of failure for everyone else.. this event was flawed from conception.. but yes congrats to the people that were on when event started congrats on a very easy to earn prise.. but those of you that got it need to at least realize that it is now at least 50 times harder.. just for gp why don't you try to find 25 more NOW....and maybe you will understand why players are unhappy

    you all get pissed when they bring something out and get pissed when they don't. Pick a side and stick with it. look harder to find people.

    You dont seem to understand well placed complaints. Its the problem with the world. They are asking each players to raid, in a 24 hour clock day, a building thats raidable every 24 hours. That means the building is "lit" once a day. Put that with all the players looking for them, we can realistically have all command centers down in 1 or 2 hours. This event also depends on people not collecting their 24 hour buildings, which the commend center is synced with or they would repair it once hit.

    The problem here is balance, since there is no amount of gold you can spend to finish that goal. You are completely at the mercy of the player base and thats a bad way to run an event. This would be less of a problem if the building had a 1 hour or less payout OR the goal did not require a specific building to raid.

    I feel so sorry to European and Asian players.

    I did finish but I'm not a selfish player. I see the problem this will cause and speaking on it. The problem is you're not also saying the same thing. A lot of player can't finish. Most cant finish because of timezone. Most players are killing off the entire building for the goal when they only need 1 hit. This event is completely player driven and thats a problem.

    Anyone saying they finished this is just a WindUp merchant. I have now looked at 350 rivals bases. Not 1 CC lit up... Not bothering anymore. Better things to do with my time. Bye
