it seems pretty apparent that they're trying to keep servers alive by preventing exactly what your alliance and many other strong players are trying to do. stack a few servers with all the strongest players to completely dominate the game in capitol and vs. I'm not sure why you would think that would be good for the overall health of the game? every aspect of this game shows they're trying to keep things balanced as possible from a macro perspective. i personally hate my server because we have so many weak players that we have to negotiate with when my clan can decimate everyone but I understand the necessity for it. it's annoying for the whale players but if they allowed what you wanted, many players would quit.
I don’t get why they add options to watch ads for gear instead of paying they would make money from people watching ads. This game is focused on people spending money when there’s avenues to get more people to play it and make more money.
Yes I like these types of videos, it gives us an idea of what may be happening to the game because it matters. I’d rather know ahead of time. Keep up the good work!
LLama-153 and CapTin-159 have both been out there fighting the good fight with logic and reason as well, but also being largely ignored and distracted by Advisor shenanigans. And before anyone rushes to judgement and accuses people of wanting to build super servers please understand it is far deeper than that. I don't care about dominating in regards to power. What I do care about is finding a group of likeminded individuals who want to play the game in the same fashion and push to achieve common goals. The server I am currently trapped on is full of fine caring and kind people but they would much rather use this game as another form of social media than to engage in competitive activities. As is evidenced by a 41 person warzone duel turnout when the server has more than 570 active players. Is it so wrong for me to want to play somewhere with people like me even if I am the world's smallest elite? #FreeTheNacho
@@gasiacaligasiacali7384 yeah, your aşs will get beat regularly 🤣 I spent and had to keep spending to stay competitive.

Sure you can play F2P casually but you won’t be competitive at all, knowledge of the game only helps you get so far then you need money

This must scale by how new or old the server is. I am on a server in the 100s and Elite is 11.5m+ - I am almost 8m and I am contributor. PS. I posted this early in the video. Will update if you mention this later in the video.
Adding info to this for context, I will share info on both servers I play on. Server group #229-264 Elite 9.40m+ Contributor 2.70m - 9.40m Pioneer 365k - 2.70m Server group #101-132 Elite 11.50m+ Contributor 3.70m - 11.50m Pioneer 441k - 3.70m These are ~ 3 weeks apart.
Thank goodness I quit the game and gave my HQ30 acc to a friend in 647 This is by far the worst game I’ve ever played with regards to money spent 😂 I’ve spent a ton and regret it
@ I’ve played up to the beginning of S2, so I have enough experience, I still help my team via discord and the game is no fun if you don’t spend money. F2P is a waste of time unless you’re not competitive and don’t care about helping your team win VS, Capitol war etc. I Gave my account to a team member and 3 T10 24m+ squads in arena. You can’t be competitive in this game without spending proper money. The F2P way is not for this game.
Agree with most everything you said. However admitting you were trying to trick them by lowering your power isnt helping either. The whales going to one server were part of the problem that started this. You cant essentially be mad at them for not being upfront and lying while youre trying to lie to them. You sre correct though that you likely shouldnt be the same as a 50 million whale. But ill also say a 40+ million march shouldnt be the same as a 35 million march. Its a broken system and its sad we cant a better gaming experince for the money thats spent on this game.
ahhh. that makes a lot of sense. this kind of game doesnt reallly have an infinite lifetime and the pay to win players wont pay forever unless the gameplay gets better, and theres not much to improve on without drastically changing the game play... thats a really good point about them selling. makes me not want to spend much more money.. im one of those that only buys the absolute best deals, although, free to play is the best deal of all
Your point is invalid. If all elites dropped their power then became a pioneer. Then you’d have servers with 30 real elites. I’m glad the game made an elite and elite.
The bottom line is that dev don't care as long as they make their $$. It's a product, they work to developed it, and they want their profits. Like any other business. Nobody is looking at "whales", elites, etc. The game will continue to be alive as long as there are profits, as it should be with all products.
I think you are upset this cloud your judgment… If you look at 3v3 most servers has top 10 ranging between 105-130 for the top 3 squads, you see outliers especially in top 3 So 105-130 for top 3 squads are really considered elite Allowing strong players to gather and create super server is a bad shortcut for lazy leaders who could not build their server and grow the server, some people do not spend much because the server sucks
The thing about a "dolphin" is, they can still dominate 90% of the other players. You might not want to be grouped with a whale but putting, say, 10 of the dolphins on a single alliance on another server with other whales and dolphins will completely wipe everyone else out. Our president has allowed a certain amount of transfers per top alliance and of course he is keeping the top 6 transfers for his alliance. Why wouldn't he? Imagine if he could bring in 10, 15 or 20 of those levels.
This whole game is dying. Anyone with 2 brain cells to rub together knows that with power creep, the game is going to die. That’s what happens when you can pay to win. Live fast, die young.
@ Moderate spenders like myself don’t even want to spend anymore because every season outcome gets determined by the 5 assholes who sell their house to be the best in the game. All that’s gonna be left is the big spenders.
@@catatestrophe7499 youre not entirely wrong, but if you have a whale on your server, you can at least compete with other servers. season 1 was fun for us.. our alliance has 2 whales, but was pitted against an alliance with 2 whales, they were stronger by a small margin. overall it was fun but yeah we coudldnt do anything unless our whales were on. in the end, neither alliance won, since we both ended up wasting ourselves against each other and another alliance with a whale ended up winning. an ally of ours.
#2 prevents contributors and elites from slipping through the cracks as followers.

This game is broken down into two groups. Farmers and Fighters. The farmers play for the conversation only.

Makes sense why would they want all the top players on 1 server. Spread out it encourages more people to spend to catch up.
There needs to be some limits but not as restrictive as it is.
