I'm sick of this game but ! I can't stop playing it

What you are experiencing is the realization that the developers have very brilliantly constructed a casino. (Note, that’s why they have to give you the odds of winning at the summons - although they probably were in compliance with the law when there was only season 1 heroes and they split odd by *'s, now they have to split out odds for each season or even special characters. But they tiptoe right up to the line by not publishing odds where you don’t have to pay directly, like trainings and such. It’s a crooked approach or at least a sharp one.

This casino they’ve constructed never pays out money - it just pays out “fun”… the ability to win. If you approach like you are expecting to win then you will be shelling out way too much money and, just like at the casino, probably go home empty handed. And all the more bitter because someone next to you will hit the jackpot.

Just like an alcoholic shouldn’t hang out in a bar, if you are someone who get s compulively drawn to games of chance, I suggest stay away from this (and most other) gimick “captive currency” games. This concept originates with the carnies - the “trade your greenbacks for tickets at the gate” framework. And just like carnies, if you can avoid telling the customer how many balloons they have to pop for a prize, or you can guarantee “everybody wins” and give them a prize that is worth 10-cents, the developers of this game are masters at the art of tricking you into paying for nothing. And in this game, you don’t just get a 10-cent cupie doll, you literally get nothing.

Well, we all pay for fun everywhere, not just here. Go to the movies, bar, whorehouse, circus…anywhere, you will pay for fun. That’s the true concept but it’s up to everyone to set their limits

When you complain, you make yourself a victim. Leave the situation, change the situation, or accept it. All else is madness. - Eckhart Tolle

Why do you think it’s strange?

That’s the absolute truth my friend. :slight_smile:
I know that with my newly acquired attitude there’s no point in competing super hard. My mid-level alliance fits well with my current goals. Titans and wars are still super fun and competitive. It’s enough at this stage of my game life. We are where we are. If I had a chance to do it all from the start - I wouldn’t. :see_no_evil::joy:

I would not have defined it better, I hope that as I have done, many read you and understand where we are, although the sad reality is that even knowing this I love the game, that is why I am one of the million and a half of the last players who have not uninstalled the game and not of the 6 million players who already uninstalled it :joy:

Because you are missing a lot of mats from titans and it shouldnt be that difficult to find an easy going alliance where you hit the titans if you are on, in your own interest for a good loot tier and can fill your war chest if you have time for the war.

That is the reason I am ftp! :slight_smile:

You can park your account in a “cemetery” and play by yourself. Hit the titans when you feel like it. Do war when you feel like it.

Some “cemeteries” are war-barred so choose one that isn’t just in case you feel a nudge to war once in awhile.

there is a big mistake to think that SG is like a casino… there is one big difference, casinos have to give someone their money sometimes like win prize, on the other hand SG gives you literally nothing they can generate their gems colored pixels whatever to infinity… :wink:

Likewise I’ve just attacked three 4300 power teams in war with 5000 power teams and lost all of them but people will say the boards are random well there not its a algorism where i decides before the board has loaded if your going to win or lose i think its time to take a break.

I would personally enjoy the game more if POV didn’t include war milestones as war is a choir and lets be honest like most things with this game the rewards are generally awful.

Been there. Break sounds good.

I am heading for one once I clear this “easy” pov.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend. :)))

This post was very confusing with a lot of words at not say very much.

The only thing I agree with or that made any sense was the titan reward loot fir A+, I get A and + with most titans but get far better loot fwhen I am in B .

The rest just made no sense to even comment on.

The probability of an A+ not getting the best rewards is expected, you are confused by a mathematical illusion.

The easiest way to explain this is to consider a deck of cards. If you add 4 more aces to the deck you will have a set of cards with 8 aces and 52 non-aces. Your probability of pulling an ace is twice as high as pulling another card, but that doesn’t change the fact that not pulling an ace has a much higher probability than pulling an ace.

So it is with titan reward levels. The A+ player has a higher chance of better loot than each of the other players when considered on an individual basis. But the odds are still higher than someone different than the A+ winner will get the best draw. People want to think that the loot system is somehow ‘broken’. But it is not as long as rewards are randomly assigned.

I have thought about that a lot as well, my friend - if something caused me to have to start this game all over again, would I? almost certainly not… I don’t want to go through all this all over again lol! :slight_smile:

as for competition, I just now compete against myself - can I rank higher this time around? Or if I end up in the same tier, can I at least make it easier to place that way :slight_smile:

cheers to having a healthy attitude towards this game!

I am pretty sure one of us is nd quite certain it ain’t me,lol.

And that changes the fact that the titan botin for doing 500,000 damage to a titan of 14* with a+ booty … is ■■■■?
I say no. They can make up as they want but this game goes straight to the black hole

Well, we already agree on something, what I don’t see is players saying that it’s a good game, if not rather players complaining, if you don’t ask the 5 million who have already uninstalled the game.
