I actually have the war rank 74
i have been playing since SimCity wars began.
I have a couple team mates with 4 or 5 attacks now at level 20. They are high 70s and even low 80s with war rank.
so, I know there is no way a war rank in the low 30s with a 200k-300k scoring average with level 20 magnet, shield buster, and mellow bellows only with nothing else even opened is not possible
Apparently they duplicate war items as needed with hacked sim coins to purchase rebuilds
this is a hobby for me that I enjoy but recently there has been no response to do anything about it
I’ve noticed no regard to duds if there is no skin in the game to collect the parts honestly within the rules of the game
@c9851c972984a3d1I agree entirely. My war rank is a humble 34, but it has been achieved honestly and by playing the game according to the rules. I've managed to upgrade Mellow Bellow and Magnetism to level 10. Other disasters are at various levels between 2 - 8.
It is just so depressing to have my club to go war, only to see our opponents with multiple level 20 disasters, and knowing that fighting the war is a useless activity, since we can never hope to match the cheats' rate of scoring.
EA seems to be quite sanguine regarding this stage of affairs, and long ago I despaired that EA would waste money or devote SERIOUS attention to removing what is a hideous affront to all those loyal players who play the game in the spirit which was intended/expected.
I am only war level50, started a few months afterstart of sc and reported a lot of foul play players. Last year most of them were succesfully removed, this year, none of the reported players were removed, i followed them at group level and they still play, some of them i followed at friendly code, and also there, no removal, evan after reporting the same user repeatedly. What happened with the helpdesk, if they can or will not act.
Agreed
there was a time when it was getting cleaned up and the legitimate teams were coming back to the top….
The last several months has been nothing.
There should be a reasonably easy way to report clubs as a whole, and an abnormality that can be seen and verified for ‘outside the rules’ play detection to eliminate the cheating hacks.
Interesting discussion, I did wonder how some of these guys had either the time or cash to put together some of the cities and war chests required. Increasingly a war consists of getting a few shots on, maybe knocking one or two opponents down then being smashed at a rate you have to spend so much time recovering that you spend most of the campaign doing two full rebuilds and have no time for anything else. Always assumed that they effectively cheated by spending a lot of money on extras but in reality those who chose to do that for whatever reason and pay should be protected from actual cyber cheats.
Increasingly also rather than a couple of basic items to repair a building now it's advanced items you have to search long and hard for or have three levels of waiting whilst the raw materials get through the process which isn't practical in the time.
We get they want you on it all day and watching adds and paying but even then progress would probably be slow, and if competitors are doing dodgy hack unprotected then it's basically fraudulent to take people's money for the rest of it.
