Disclaimer: Yes I'm in an hte clan, but I rarely end up in one. I almost never have seals because I don't spend money on KaW. Lately (or since forever) I've seen countless threads bashing HTE. They all basically follow the lines of "it was limited time what happened" along with "devs are greedy" and maybe a "people who worked for years for their stats are neglected by people who spend" sprinkled in there. Please don't make any more threads, we understand that people don't like HTE. I'm going to address the "limited time promo" and "devs are greedy" points. Yes it's true, HTE was supposed to be a limited time promo. But after a while devs realized how much money HTE generated, so they officially made it permanent. What people don't understand, is that ata is a business. Businesses are supposed to make money. Why would a business owner ever turn down the opportunity to make more money? Wanting to become a more successful business shouldn't make you greedy. I know someone is going to mention that fixing HTE would make everyone happier therefore bringing in more money (because people are more willing to spend on KaW then). This could be true, and I really have no response to it. Anyways, while HTE is certainly frustrating to people who can't spend money on seals, it's not entirely unfair. The people who spend thousands of dollars on KaW are the people who keep the game running. They are the people that invest into KaW and ATA. Considering that KaW is a free to play game, the people who spend tons of money are especially essential to keeping the game up. And of course, since they invest into the game, the devs give them an advantage over the people who don't spend. I have no problem with a little criticism. In fact I encourage it. Except 20 threads repeating the same thing isn't exactly constructive. The devs know HTE upsets many players. Hopefully the devs can think of something to please the spenders and casual players By the way, feel free to point out any arguments against HTE that I didn't mention. I only talked about a few common ones. -GRIMZY no h8 pls
Its like me going down town and telling the meth heads to stop doing meth makes me soooo mad they don't listen.
Ive lost count of how many seals ive bought. But i can count how many hte clans ive been in, its zero. That said, i really just dont care if people spend more than me. Hell, i dont care if my seal doesn't get me as much bang for the buck as others. I can successfully hit a lot of people and i cant atleast fail hit even more. Im good with that. I dont play this game to chase the illusion of winning. I play to stir up trouble. Good luck to those though that spend money to build kingdoms that will never hit anything other than ebs. *golf clap* Hmm.. Sounds like a waste of a kingdom.
Very true. Some Big spenders for HTE just grow to hit more ebs, and never use the stats for anything else.
Hte would be fine if they could fix the issues it creates, Titan tried to get them to listen and they didnt. It doesn't need to be removed. And the spenders are needed to keep the game running. But we do need thousands of small dev price limited max plunder allies so everyone can have an ally. And we need a faster way to grow. My biggest personal gripe is that of I buy a seal And just for argument sake redstar does. At the end of the hte all actions being equal He will have double the value for the exact same real expenditure. This puts many off spending. Would you shop at the same grocery store if they have you half a carrot whilst the next customer gets a whole carrot for same cost. The easy fix is a set return for gold for the seal user no matter size. Leave the clans plunder linked to size as an added bonus it's free at that point for them.
I think devs should put a cap on how many hte a player can participate in so that it isn't the way like it is now. But of course devs love their money.
I think it's fine that hte is there except that others grew faster (mids) and those who spend is (just like what you said) the #1 priority of devs but.... Without other ppl, this game will not survive for more years. I thought an idea about a limitation but no one gets what I mean so yeah, pretty useless... But I wish that if we all get a lot of ideas to make the game better, the devs should too and do it themselves. And also make the game fun for non-spenders too...
Dude, are you high? Wth would big spenders spend money on a game if it was all equal payout. Lay down the meth pipe and think about this for more than your 1 min thought processing brain allows please. They spend to grow big and make more gold each action. Plan and simple. *disclaimer- I made my stats the old fashioned way, hard work. Learn it. Now I use it to hit HTE and enjoy. You should have joined KAW over 4 yrs ago like lots of folks did, or been more active. You chose not to. Quit complaining
Yes at least If they joined 4 years ago they would only be 1 year behind :lol: lucky star what you fail to realize and acknowledge is how unattractive that statement looks to any potential new player :lol: yes it is true and that is the problem the 5 year+ gap is staggering and why would they attempt that when there are on other games that they can start without the huge disadvantage.So enjoy the "good times" for they are predestined to end at some point.. This is what is killing the game and selfish self indulgent and self glorifying attitudes of many players plunge that blade deeper still. Good luck getting that precious bfa luckystar when no new players want to grow and others become inactive and quit, two mods in as many weeks have quit/retired.
That is a terrible idea as it is impossible to balance. The idea that someone with my stats could get the same amount as red star is terrible. Either i will get way too much gold from hte, or red star will get the equivalent of peanuts
