WAR CHEATS! HELP
Hi guys! This situation are really critical now! A lot of clubs are unhappy because of cheats in war. For example our club had previous war. And our enemy was cheats. 1. They made more energy i...

Unfortunately, you are not alone. Our club reports cheaters weekly now. EA support does little to keep honest players in the loop about what is being done. Honestly, the best thing you can do to send a message to EA is not play. And certainly do not pay for card packs that get you nowhere against cheaters.
Right now we are playing Koreana who has somehow managed to defy time and get more Energy than is possible. Also, they only use Magnetism....every player, every attack, level 3.
Impossible? No. Improbable? Definitely.
Wake up EA! Or shut down wars and refund our money. Obviously, it's not working out too well for your honest customers.
- Hi! I play the game since the very beginning and think that the war feaurure is really great! Especially fort those, who already have built their cities. (PS: never won megalopolis league in CoM, even though I participated almost in every season and chose only the tasks with the highest amount of plumb points. Maybe need more luck...).
Our club has lost a lot of wars but we never thought it could be cheater. How is this possible? We always thought "they are just better organized", or "they have more active players, then we do". And never thought of reporting a Club just by losing the war.... Now we are much better, have 21 active players and we basically win every war (ok, still in top 1000 and not top 100), but we have fun working on strategy etc. Many of us have magnetism Level 4, because we pay for card packages and we love to use them: does it mean we cheat? Why is everybody reporting a club after losing a war? I think, what is more important, that EA fix the dome (bubble) problem: we often played against clubs, which decide to stay under the dome for 35 hours!! (Just after the first attack). Don't know what's the funto repair 9/10 and wait until the war is over, but EA should really put a time limit. 12 hours and afterwords we can attack? As I understand many mayors complain about that "strategy".We know they are cheaters because they expend more energy than is possible at the beginning of the campaign. It's not possible for one player to use 7 or 8 Magnetism attacks in the first 15 minutes of the war.
We had a cheater, more energy used at start of game and how does any club get that many hydrants, 186 Magnetism attacks 372 hydrants! I have high level Magnetism and our club finds hydrants to be rare. Definitely cheating. And we do buy card deals.
Hi lelik19900,
You have touched on 2 major issues in the war games and contingent where you are at the moment dictates which one is more important. The bubble issue is frustrating but it is legal, our intent is to propose a “shot clock” that is fair for all parties which is why I press for 18 hours.
As far as cheating is concerned, it is illegal - it’s a liability to the the game, it creates dissolution for active players and it’s just plain wrong. Until you have faced teams that take shots and immediately hide in the bubble, who build energy at a rate that is well beyond normal, who shoot you while you’re conducting repairs inside the bubble, etc. it’s difficult to determine what is more important.
Simply put, the documentation that has been provided and subsequently removed from this forum has shown a clear picture of what’s taking place and the good news is EA is slowly and methodically addressing the issue one report at a time.This is about so much more than a club being upset because they lost. Good luck to you and your team.
(PS: I’ve played the game since the beginning as well and have actually won the Megalopolis level a few times prior to the exploits running wild in CoM).
- @PinnacleValley ok, I'll do so! I never could imagine HOW one could change the energy and i am sorry you guys experienced that! But yes, I'll keep an eye on that ! The question is why doesn't EA ban those people? ☹️
Any advice for winning megalopolis except choosing the tasks with the Hughes amount of points? I have never won, not even one time! ☹️ Sometimes I think it's a Game Policy: if I'm in any way paying for simcash, they don't give me enough high points tasks - so I buy even more simcash.
- I absolutely agree with this ridiculous magnetism cheat! I’ve bought war cards a few times and basically want my money back now. Why pay to upgrade my attacks if we’re fighting a club who’s cheating using only magnetism attacks? It has taken the fun out of wars. We’re playing a club now that is ranked 50 star points below us, we were 717 when our war started and they came out with 2 players using nothing but those attacks.....second time! Fix it, ban the players or refund honest players their money!
- I got the same problem
- Tttony,
You are absolutely right. Cut EA’s income from war, see how fast they will prevent it.A few wars back my team reported a cheating team. Guess which team we just got matched up against? The same one we previously reported! This proves to me that EA does not address the cheating issues. We are very disappointed to say the least. That team should have been taken out of the game but EA did absolutely nothing despite the 10 or more separate reports we sent in.
@roccodonovan8 *snip* I've dealt with a couple hacking clubs that had 4-5 members dropping nothing but some sort of hydrant attack all war. I did the math and it was like 300+ hydrants between all the players, 2 did nothing but mag attacks with every single energy the entire war. We even faced one club that somehow had a member sit under shield for 24 hours while still putting up points. His attack history showed only 10 damage when we took him out in the first hour, then somehow between then and when he actually got up the second time he'd put up 16k points smh. I get that some clubs work together and give their strongest members all the hydrants, but the amounts used that war against a club that was ranked around the 1,500 mark, I don't see them having that kinda of strategy. Now my club is pulling into the top 200 when our war ends in about 5 hours and we haven't run into any hackers the last few wars, but I've seen screen shots online of people who had like 20k in hydrants alone, their storage showed around 80k of 600. My club is all legit and can't stand cheaters, if I found one in my club I'd remove them immediately, just don't see the fun in winning by cheating......
