No to shield buster
I write this as a loyal Sims buildit player. Spend countless hours and real dollars. Sims does not care about us. We give them our time and money. And they slap us in the face, while forcing us to c...
I have no idea what you are talking about @PinnacleValley. And I am far from inconsiderate. I don't see any fun in getting pounded by an obvious club full of hacked cities so I can collect war items to be used in the next war against a hacker club. I would rather do a matchup war among friends, although I am not a fan of "open" wars. I've been playing this game since it began and my strategy was generally not to hide in bubbles. But against a club full of mag 15, mb 15 cities I would have gladly done so to secure a victory. To me, the war has always been about winning. Sorry, no way you can convince me that the shield buster is a good thing, except for the hacker clubs. I do have the shield buster and will use it where necessary, but I find it to be nothing more that a device to overcome poor play. If our club had all mag 15 and mb 15 attacks and unlimited supply of hacked war items, we would have beaten the hacker club to a pulp. He never could have kept up with us. As it was, most of us lost interest. I suppose the hacker is happy, but I know a lot of folks that I have been playing against and with for the last few years are not. Enjoy your game. I am rapidly losing interest.
Obviously I must have been mistaken you certainly sounded like a “strategy” proponent...especially as I went back and read a couple of your prior posts. Since I was incorrect I extend my sincere apology to you. If you would like to understand my position on the shield busters go read the original post in the thread “Time to shift the paradigm” and you’ll see some unique suggestions that may or may not work. Regardless EA must address the hacker issue as well as the “strategy” for the game to grow and thrive.
Just a side note everyone that plays the game comes to win. The big difference is some come to compete to earn the victory and others try to back into it. Again, I apologize for my misunderstanding.
