No to shield buster

Another one of those claiming “if you hate shields, you must be too dumb to know strategy” guy lol
Yes, I hate shields. But I can cut and paste my reply on another thread to show you that I most probably know about strategies more than you, you know.
Don’t assume. Just because I don’t employ shields to score wins doesn’t mean I don’t know how to use them.
@J6niceLYes, you may have. Ed spends money. Not hacker. He runs out of stuff. Not 50 MBs. Who knows if you won. We have lost 2 times in last month.. mostly cause 3 people with level 15 mag and monster will beat one guy with it.
We run out of stuff. We work and go to school and have families.
When I say shorter wars would be helpful I mean it. Shields while annoying shortened the game and allowed a life.
Yes, teams with 9 feeder cities will lose now maybe. But when you don't have them. They pick the weakest city and bring em back, and kill them again and again at will now.
Hacker or not, what is the point in even trying against a team where one guy does 50 MBs?
Anyways. Doesn't seem anyone truly favors the shield buster. Or they haven't had it used on them yet.
I get it, but limit the use, or shorten the wars so when we lose by 100k in first hour we can move on faster than 36 hours plus 12...
Maybe they want people without a life.
I didn’t think Ed is a hacker, btw. A hacker will either form his own club with 9 feeders or join a likeminded hacker club to easily demolish the opponents. I don’t think most legit teams will want a hacker to join them anyway.
Yes, I do think that war is way too long. I had mentioned it several times before on this forum. Even with shield buster, for the last three wars, the activity on both sides dropped significantly 18 hours later as lots of us had gotten our chests and we were running low on war stuff. Since there is no hiding, the period near end of war has become pretty peaceful actually. So long hours of war is really pointless, even with the introduction of shield buster.
One way to counter opponent using shield buster due to wanting to maximize active jackpot on a just shielded city is to put dud or umbrella.
But still I think need to limit the usage of shield buster. And make the cities impenetrable to shield buster for one hour right after being shielded (this can be indicated by change in the colour of the shield).
I played against a club that had a player with 300,000 inhabitants, a city with few inhabitants. his attacks completely full, fraud, he scored over 100,000 points ... and had other cities in the same club in the same situation. What's up EA? Won't you take action ???? They were Chinese.
I had reported several hackers a year ago, and guess what, they are still around lol
If EA is not going to do anything about them, we just have to let the hackers have the fun with each other instead. Make good use of those hackers to get war stuff instead. Strike a deal to have open war with them. Since they can attack non-stop, it’s golden opportunity to harvest war stuff from repairs. I do this every time when I’m up against hacker teams. So I’m actually pretty fine with fighting a team of hackers (not the lame 1 cheater + 10 feeders team) since I gain something from it.
Btw, I no longer report them.
