Alliance Wars - How pointless is this?

I'm just curious, but was there EVER Any benefit or gain from being in the number one alliance?

Peeps give you props in wc so you get a chubby?

Im more interested in the fact that once you donate you cant redistribute the res coins and cash around the allicance. its trapped in the alliance war theme.

what would be good is if the alliance leader could pass off the stuff back to alliance if they decided to. im guessing if the leade disbanded for what ever reason all that money coins and res would dissappear into a void.

for a personal view its ok cos i havent spent any coins on the allaince only res which i could make back though its not good that coins go unused!

Giving resources to alliance members has been denied many times

Just hope your leader doesn't abandon your alliance, or that haypi makes it so leaders can be replaced

My point exactly.

and btw, nice post sin

Most alliances are starting to realize that this new system is pointless and are going back to working on their own cities. If there were rewards implemented, this might be useful

well, the point of the game, is to get PRESTIGE....bc without it, you cannot rank up....and the only way to REALLY help the alliance is to rank up....so why would anyone put this new 'mine' thing ahead of there self, when it doesn't help me get to the goal of level 20? i donated SO much, and the only thing i get is a top 2 spot on my alliance 'contribution' and some catapults our alliance builds. the mine thing is fun, yea..but it'd be so much better if it actually helped us that put the alliance in front of ourselves.


just thing, in ANYTHING where teamwork is used, the team gets better....and you grow with the team. NOWHERE does a team get better, and the leaders of the team stay the same...

Yahhh Honor totally sucks,I mean was fun at first donating all resources workibg at a mine getting attacked every 15M but now uts pointless

[QueenofNo]

The entire mine/alliance war system is flawed -- and we are suckers for even playing at it.... because:

1) the mine attack reports are 0,0,0,0
2) the useful work around is to dispatch to a mine after a scouting attack -- or retake a mine after a full attack and you know the opponent's troop size.
3) the dispatch glitch means you will lose your troops and your opponent will gain them if the dispatch occurs after an attack is initiated.
4) the newly worse server lag helps insure that an attack may be initiated while you are trying to dispatch -- thereby increasing the chances of your opponent gaining the mine and the troops.
5) Haypi will take many days to replace your lost troops, if at all. They won't replace any coins lost in the process (i.e. coins used to speed up production of troops immediately lost in the glitch)
6) alt accounts can create alliances that will keep a mine under attack and thereby safe from other attacks -- insuring that an alliance keeps the prestige from the mine.
7) there is no way to get rid of troops made by an alliance other than losing them in battle (or a glitch)
8)alliance assets and troops are all lost if the alliance leader quits -- leadership should have been made transferable with this update...

I could go on.. but isn't that enough?

LOL QueenofNo you do make a good point.

The whole point of Haypi is pres... the floor in the current system is that the returns for the invested time effort and those who have sent coins is to low making it pointless

i cant tell the whole pres sharing from a mine but building troops outside of AW gets you pres so why not inside, and equally this could be distributed to all contributors, its a far idea since there will be no sharing of res or other benefits

the first response i had when i read the up date was "what is the benefit to me?" or my in game player? to this day im still guessing what my in game player gets from AW.

i can understand the alliance working togeter getting worked up to defend. There is small fun factor but until all the bugs are fixed i think it is disheartening when you see 30k cats disappearing due to a glitch
