Thanks @ef-ef119, I enjoyed reading your posts.
Again, unfortunate that the game developers make the players guess about how the game works. This happens in no other games I can think of, only electronic games that are too cheap to develop manuals that explain the rules and parameters of their products.
No where that I am aware of is there a nice table of information about even the most basic of things such as:
- how many squares wide x long is the game map?
- how many expansion zones are there?
- how big is maximum inventory?
- What are all the population boost buildings and how many epic points does each permit?
- How does club war scoring work.
- And so on...
No, players are left to attempt to discover all these answers manually by scrolling through game elements, and by other self-discovery, self-intuition detective work.
Or by coming to "Answers HQ". But don't think you get answers from the game developers here... no... it is a forum for other players to give answers to other players. Well, that assumes that other players know what they are talking about. I'd much prefer getting answers from the game developers directly. I can do my best to help others, but I'm only struggling to discover things for myself, much as the rest of us are.
Lazy.
Cheap. And lazy.
Boo EA!
@ModernThinkerI mainly aggree.
The good news is that occasonaly EA answers the querstions. E.g. they say, they use Elo's sytem for war ranking.
The bad news is that they are wrong. It clearly is NOT Elo's sytem - for seeral reasons. :-)
That is, the one who wins gets points fom the loser. (That is the only similarity to Elo's sytem.) Who wins barely, gets less points, like 5400:5100 gives 16 points, and who wins much, gets much points, like 78500:7650 gets 31 points. (Numbers are just estimates. I't possible to reverse engeneer the exact formula, but I lost interest.)
- 8 years agoHi All,
It's not really ELO system. What I experienced is, that's it's always about ~30 points at the beginning of the war.
For example, your team earns 10k after the first attack and your opponent has 0 - in that case you have +30 points, your opponent -30 points. After that your opponent is trying to come back to his previous ranking and you are loosing the points every time he is shooting back.
Correct me if I'm wrong 😊
All best
