Likes and dislikes of the new patch

Massedamha had some great feedback as well.

I think it’s time to vent a little more about this new version. :(

Again, since there is so much, I’ve put them in different topics.
Sorry for the length. I was on a roll.
Please feel free to chime in.

What I LIKE about the new patch.

Like #1
Nice to upgrade our buildings in our mains. Why not be able to upgrade the Market and Tavern too?
Market upgrade = more trade carts.
Tavern upgrade = higher chance to get epic heros and maybe chance to get a legendary.

Like #2
Ability to warp castles. It’s about time! :)
However, warping still costs too much. It’s 5 U.S. Dollars to warp a city. That’s a LOT considering this is a phone game. :(

Like #3
I actually do like that sorcerers don’t overwhelm now. It makes players think a little more about strategy.

Like #4
Mail that shows exactly what kind of troops are coming your way.


What I DO NOT like about the new patch

Since this patch came out, at LEAST HALF the players have quit the game.

Dislike #1
The map. Yes, it’s nice to have a little more space, but it’s VERY time consuming and costly (crop) to send troops now.
At the same time, you changed the speedups to not give as much and cost more. This is coming across to the players as a VERY greedy move to try to force players to buy more coins. Why else would you have done that? Stop thinking that charging more coins to do things will result in higher coin sales,,,, it doesn’t work that way. In fact, it forces people to stop playing because they don’t want to deal with it anymore.

Dislike #2
Map, again…
Map is nearly impossible to scout and search because of its size and its lag at refreshing. If you pan around the map, you have to pause, let it catch up, then pan around again. It’s nearly impossible to find people now.
I’m actually okay with NOT being able to search for people by name, it makes it easier to hide and adds another degree of difficulty to the game.

Dislike #3
Chat
I can’t watch all 3 chats at same time? Why can’t I chat with someone in a different region other than World Chat? I’ve missed people trying to tell me something in Alliance Chat because my chat was set to World Chat, and people just don’t see Private messages anymore because they don’t pop up like they used to. The chat needs to go back to the old style.

Dislike #4
Not being able to view profile of people in other regions. What’s the point in this? I can’t even view my own alliance members or people in WC to see what alliance they are in, etc.. Why was this taken away?

Dislike #5
Marching.
This is a big one… There were mines and cities next to my main. I PAID real money for the coins to move my main city there so I could be close to certain things. NOW,,, I’m not so close anymore. Marches that used to take 2 minutes, now take 6 minutes because you slowed down Knights to a snails crawl.
What’s the point in slowing them down like that?
Was it to slow people down and make them buy coins to pay to get marching times they used to have before the patch? Seems greedy.
Sending Knights between my main city and my manor used to take about 20 minutes.. Now it takes well over an hour. This is unacceptable.
Speed knights back up to where they were before, if not faster to compensate for this huge map. People don’t have all day to wait for this game, and when you do things like this, it makes them leave your game to go play another.

Dislike #6
Crop
With the larger map, slower marching, and longer times, we have much more crop usage.
Why deploy my troops to get 100K of crop from a city when it costs me 90K to get them there?
The cost to deploy troops on this new map is ridiculous.
Also, to revisit an old topic from the Beta, what’s the point in charging crop to send troops? Maybe consider removing that requirement or cutting down drastically. Also, if my troops aren’t in my city because they are marching… Why am I still feeding them from the city?

Dislike #7
Royal Ruin
Interesting idea… But it’s just not worth it to use them on a regular basis.
First off, if they idea was to use them to protect city troops from a massacre, that doesn’t work because if someone is attacking a city, they likely stole all the crop. Without crop, you can’t get to the royal ruin.
Also, what you get in return from a ruin is terrible for how long they tie up your troops.
I sent 10K archers for 24 hours just to see what I would get.
I got about 20-24K of each resource and lost 10% of the troops I sent. What I got in return for resources doesn’t even cover the losses for me to replace the troops killed.
Why does everything new have to kill troops? What’s the point? Why are you dead set on killing the troops of the players that are playing your game?
Why didn’t you just introduce hunting like in the old Haypi Kingdom game?

Dislike #8
Large Royal Cellar or Royal Hoards
Haven’t seen one since the patch, but that might be because the map is just too big and laggy to search.
Even if I did find one, I don’t think I have the time or the crop to get to it.
Why invest 1 million crop to march to something for an hour just to find that someone else got there first?
OOOHHH,,, I get it, you’re trying to sell warp cards here at 50 gold the first warp and 100 gold to return to where you came from. That’s $15… NOT worth it.

Dislike #9
Game still has bugs.
Crashes all the time now. Just randomly freezes and closes…. Was a bug before the patch, and it’s even worse now.

Dislike #10
Where’s the world boss you said you would bring back?

Dislike #11
This patch turned on peoples defenses without their consent.
There were people that I have been farming because they are taking a break from the game, and now, suddenly with this patch, their armies are set to defend.
Why?
It sucks to be those people who took a break and lost their army because this patch turned their defenses on. Now, if they decide to return to the game, all their troops are gone, and that player will likely never return.

Dislike #12
Instant finish for buildings got more expensive
Why?
What was wrong with 50 coins?
Now it’s just a combined total of the shorter speed ups.
It doesn’t even make sense.
I’m looking at the cost to instant finish something that has 8 hours remaining. It’s saying 22 coins to instant finish.
It’s actually CHEAPER to buy the smaller speedups instead of instant.
I suggest making this a flat 50 like it was and don’t make it cost more for longer times..
Making it cost more means I’ll actually be LESS LIKELY to use it because I just don’t see the value in spending $10 to finish 1 upgrade for 1 building in 1 city for a phone game. I’d rather wait.

Dislike #13
Where’s the Android version?
Seriously, it’s been over a year since the beta came out and we were asking then.
Hire some Android developers and make it happen.

Dislike #14
Full mail message
This has got to be one of the most annoying things every.
I can fill my mail in a day with war reports. This is extremely annoying to see this message pop up every time I open my mail. Yes, I deleted some mail to make it go away, but it doesn’t make it any less annoying. Why does it matter if I have 23 pages of war reports in my mail?

Dislike #15
50 coin try your luck – Who does that? It’s a total waist of coins. At $5 a spin, I’d rather just go to the casino down the street.

Dislike #16
Red ring in normal try your luck doesn’t actually do anything.
In-game support told me that it brings extra luck to get better items on next spin.. but the last couple times I’ve gotten it, I’ve gotten stone and metal.. This just seems totally pointless.

Dislike #17
Heros
What is wrong with letting people have a CHANCE at getting a legendary hero through a normal tavern refresh? Maybe a 0.5% chance?
Seriously, don’t be greedy.
Also, the people that bought and used cards before the last patch and didn’t get a legendary got screwed because now they have to buy 15 more cards to finally get one. This just made people more and more upset.

Dislike #18
Blue (gold gear) drops from hard mode Dragon cave?
Seriously, fix this already.
Make the reward of the task worth it for it takes to complete the task.
To give someone blue gear when they have to have purple gear to complete the task is a slap in the face.
Just like giving people the blue hero refresh card for the login rewards. It’s pointless… Nobody needs the blue hero card unless they are new to the game and still collecting heros.

Dislike #19
Haypi just doesn’t listen to it’s customers.
How many suggestions have people given you, some of them REALLY GOOD, and you just completely ignored them?

Re: Likes and dislikes of the new patch

No. They only provide support on the Chinese forum. Yes! They have their own separate forum!
