"city-dropping"

[GoldenRico]

I highly doubt someone who can buy that many coins would really be counting pennies rofl. Im guessing you are some good ole fashioned american blue collar who makes less than 100k a year. Sorry speedy I use $100 in thirty minutes at a bar or restuarant so to use on a game is just like giving money to a bum on the streets. Bottom line this game is like society, us rich control it and you poor here to serve us. Thank you its been so nice

That's a very arrogant and disrespectful thing to say.
Like akd said, it's a game suggestion. And your taking that over seriously

if he wants to be presumptuous and whine about how the elite lget the job done then a tongue lashing is what he will receive from me. He acts as ifcity dropping is easy when there is strategy involved. I will not be one to take it quietly :p

Your lashing consists of nothing more than a shield of money you create for yourself.

And Tongue lashing is poor in itself.

I'm with akd on this. It's a game and it's an idea for improvement. He's doing the sensible thing by not looking at it with money.

A game completely built upon the one who has the most money is dominant, is flawed and meaningless.

And you say the elite get the job done. You mean the one who's willing to spend the most cash is supposedly better than other gamers?
That's a pathetic view to be honest.

I appreciate you having my back Sameh, but this guy is not worth arguing with. His arrogance knows no bounds, and one day it will come crashing down on him that he's no better than those he looks down his nose upon. I'd like to have him in our server.. Maybe sic stB on him. Let him see how it is having a city-dropping maniac breathing down his neck, scouting him nonstop waiting for the slightest misstep... StB would be all over this guy, drippin' drool on his "popped collar"... That would be epic. I would PAY stB for the screenshots of that prestige grab.

Too true.

I was done anyway. What started as a simple game suggestion became an arrogancy show.

Oh well.

Ive seen people use more money than me and still not hit top 5 ranking. To city drop means to constantly be scouting and stalking your prey. Also having a constant vigil on the hunt screen pop up. Just so you know to make finding prey easier an excel spreadsheet was created of the top 200 players that would have 10k prestige plus with the last known locations of their subs so if I wanted to I could city drop and wipe them. Starving also another strategy so you know when the individual sleeps so you can recall them back efficient and suffer 0 losses. Bottom line I was that city-dropping maniac so I know how to counter it.... be active lol bottom line. Just like how you lose troops if you dont command them in forts you will lose troops if you aren't there to protect them. Also similiar to how they will starve if you dont feed them. This game is more based around how not to slip up even for a second, not just the money invested. Just a bit of advice before you say it is all "Just about the Benjamins"

I agree with ak completely. And yes I am a victim of Stb and my alliance leader is a city dropper. I have considered it and just thought it took the fun out of it. Yes there are strategies to defend against it but the bottom line is that it is an exploit. It's like shooting the A gap in the old 2k football games to block FGs. Most of you are probably too young to remember that but it caused players to always go for the 2pt conversion because it was damn near impossible to kick the FG. Exploits take away more from the game than they add. Sure we could all buy coins and city drop but what fun is that? I actually enjoy the excitement of constantly scouting my target while my troops are marching on his/her city. I have spent coins call back troops when my attack has been noticed and my target pulls back more troops than I can handle. I have also spent coin on upgrade speedups and on level up items. I spent coins just today buying resources to speed up the rebuilding process after being city dropped. Eventually Haypi will be left with two types of players: city droppers and noobs, because all the legit hard working players will quit. Hope this is addressed in a update in some form.

Goldenrico- That's the first decent post I've seen from you. You used real information to get your point across, instead of trying to justify your city dropping methods with feudal elitism. It wasn't dripping with arrogant condescension as the others all were. You're human after all. Kudos.

Guys it's quite simple it took time to build your city it should take time to rebuilt that city if it's moved. You don't see the us army erect a city for there troops when there invading a country in a split second, place a time delay on the ability to launch attacks from it once it's moved. I city drop I've been dropped on I know where akdragon is coming from, and his points are valid. Damm it take about 30 seconds to reboot the game what if u get a communication error or ur connection drops out, you cant tell me that cause someone moves right next to you it doesn't slow you connection speed down as I can assure you it does (more data surrouding your area plus the incoming attack data) it all adds up. Having a time delAy is the right way to go.

isnt this the loyality today?

i have to agree with rico, city dropping is 1 strategy as it is the surprise element we want. however, to counter this type of strategy, maybe u can consider building ur subs away fromeach other with a decent distance like said 5min away from each other, also always spread ur army, it will need them to hit u multiple time before ur rmy is completly crush. also turrets or traps should not be ignored as useless, it will offset their prestige gained from u. imagine having to deal with lvl10 turrets multiple times, because ur army is in different city. just a piece of advice.
