No one has to play GvG. So no need to force anyone to stop playing it. Plenty of players like it just fine.Even better solution.... Just delete GvG entirely and set up a separate thread for all the whining and wailing and gnashing of teeth which would begin...
Time to move on and discard that relic...

The best solution to the GvG issue would be to seriously devalue its impact on guild ranking. Then it could die a natural death at long last. It's been on life support for over 5 years.No one has to play GvG. So no need to force anyone to stop playing it. Plenty of players like it just fine.

From what I've seen you are right about the extent of BOT using, but they have so many ALTs (which never get removed) that they (BOT users) don't care.
At the risk of getting deleted, I would suggest that the easiest fix to GVG is two-fold:
1. Make everything a LZ. (Just remove the LZ CODE)
2. Create another Space AGE only Continent. (Limit AF Continent to AF units and below.)
Just a thought for discussion amongst GvG aficionados, not a demand.
If you truly believe that, it shoots a huge hole in your credibility. Availability at 8 PM Eastern time and membership in a large guild full of PC players are the only two requisites to GvG success. GBG requires more strategy, and even GE requires more skill. How can it be a true test when the max defense army boosts are capped at a ridiculously low number? Get real.GVG is the one area where outstanding players can really shine
Or it could be a sign that these players are like a club of people who enjoy listening to music on 8-track tapes. Or movies on VHS.The fact that there's still a cult following of GVG players after years of relative neglect is a testament to how good it could be if more players were aware/involved.
This is about the only true statement in your post. Ironic, really, that you stuck this little gem in.The fact that gvg weighs so much for guild ranking is dumb though.
See? Even you know what the most relevant requirement for GvG "success" is.If you want to see real GVG, check those servers at 8pm server time.
Another mostly true statement. Although the habit forming was probably done in the days of the dinosaurs and not recently.At this point, it's too low maintenance and highly habit-forming for inno to drop.
Not in the big picture. In a niche segment of the player base, yes. But not in the big picture.GVG'ers may keep fussing about GVG coming to Mobile (it won't). But GVG haters should know that isn't not going anywhere - GVG is alive and well in the big picture of FOE.
Really? Because I've been playing for over 6 years and never once has my game been affected by alts/shared accounts. Ditto with pushing and ghosting. Spying (assuming you mean players who secretly join a rival guild for intelligence gathering) is a valid strategy, whatever your opinion of it is.Alts/Shared accounts are a major problem. Pushing, spying, ghosting, etc all screw up the balance and fairness of the game whether gvg, gbg, or otherwise.
Or, as has been suggested numerous times, just make every tile a landing zone and stop the ability to close them off. And I hear a lot about alleged cheaters, but why would someone cheat in GvG? For ranking points?!? Get serious. If they're cheating just for ranking points that few players care about, more power to them. Seems stupid to risk a ban for that, but whatever.Getting the cheaters cleared out would help GVG a lot. Adding a couple of extra LZs in the SE corner of the AA map would make it impossible to close to beach fixing that issue on most servers.
Adding prizes to a feature that less than 30% of the player base can access? Inno isn't that stupid. You really think mobile players are going to go out and buy a PC/laptop just because rewards are added? That's pie in the sky thinking. You obviously don't know the mobile player's mindset, do you?Finally, adding any sort of reward to GVG would make it much more popular.
The fact remains that prizes would make GVG significantly more popular.
Diamonds are rare in GBG. Those getting a constant stream of diamonds from GBG are doing a *lot* of fightsDefinitely more fun than GBG since I seem to be on the list of people who don't get diamonds as rewards for it.
Yep. Diamonds are rewarded approximately 1% of the time. 100 encounters...1 reward of 25 diamonds. For serious GBG "gluttons" (to use @Aleria's term) it adds up fast.Diamonds are rare in GBG. Those getting a constant stream of diamonds from GBG are doing a *lot* of fights
I feel a bit better now. Still prefer GVG since it feels like I am accomplishing something plus I get to challenge myself against large guilds.Diamonds are rare in GBG. Those getting a constant stream of diamonds from GBG are doing a *lot* of fights
The nice thing about this game is we can pick and choose what we want to do. I don't bother with settlements, questing, swap threads, 1.9, etc for instance since I have limited online time which is usually during off hours. Those are a pain that I don't want to mess with.got enough going on GVG is a pain no one wants to mess with
The 100 diamonds I just got beg to differGE rewords are so bad It's mostly a big joke
I love my face of the ancient upgrades and gate of the sun god upgrades, especially since I don't have money to spend on events.The 100 diamonds I just got beg to differ
Ummm. No, it doesn't. Many, many guilds do no GvG at all. Check the global guild list and then count the number of guilds holding tiles in GvG and you'll see that.GvG is the only way to Build Guild Doinance AND it it engages ALL Guilds.
Well, we know neither of these are going to happen. And you didn't think the second one through. With no LZs, only guilds already holding tiles could participate in GvG. That's assuming you are using "LZ" as short for landing zone.There are some fixes I wish would occur: Space Age GvG Era and eliminate LZs.
