Yet another event with new heroes. Dear Lord, iām here still unable to ascend a simple Sartana pulled more than one year ago and content keeps popping up like mosquitos in the summer. The feeling that the situation is getting out of control is growing stronger and stronger. They will eventually bring us to a point where thereās so much to play and pull, that none of it will really be of any interest or fun for us.
On the other hand, weāre stuck with a trial with Scarlett Skittle and Domitia as bosses (citing the actual one just for laziness, but every single trial would be worth a mentionā¦)
So the game got so stupid updates to come that even Guvnor, the primary source of entertainment in the forum is tired. So much respect for everything youāve done.
Iām no longer playing but are we REALLY seeing the game fall apart due to zyngaās idiotic stubbornness to implement a water damage rana and a paladin yunan that are worse than the original versions even though they are dated heroes and those ridiculous limit-breakers?
let me laugh 'cause itās not like we havenāt warned them a million times.
and the salmon loki? my godā¦ since you want to use that art, why donāt you release him as part of s1 as a new hero? a candy for the players wouldnāt be so bad. If costumes are cominā, why only Yunan and Rana? Are you lazy or expect your āidiotā costumers to summon all over again next year for Rocās costume?
and jesus christ, do you want to add yunan, roc and rana to the level 10 academy? ONLY to make NO other improvements, I suppose. because it wonāt make any difference to further dilute the chances of getting a good hero in that place. all this while you guys release other totally broken OP heroes.
the next heroes of the month are another couple of just so so heroes again, with situational abilities. The ice guy that increases critical damage to boards is interesting, I admit. but my god.
Do they had to mess up the game that much and make half players quit this bullcrap ONLY to add those small little game changing scum? Also beyond that the improvements of life remain non-existent. I learned that the buttons to train food heroes and item is faster. Congrats only took almost 4 years for something so simple.
Horrible costumer support, beta testing usage and management
they are really trying to push us awayā¦
its stupid to repeat anything anyway.
Maybe last resort could also be a boycot of all moderators? Maybe that will get their message if it even counts for anythingā¦
Its like they are making a game based on ideas of one rich kids millionaire, who has an influental daddyā¦
Beta Update
The new topic is up and running for the new Tower of Magic heroes:
Thanks,ā¦ very nice feature to hear, are the costume only legendary or rare and epic also included?
Unfortunately only Legendaryā¦
Cool! thatās great, rare and epic is easier to get from portal, and I only missing Gormek costume. Thanks!
Can we change the game name to Heroes & Pulls already?
*No new stages,
*No new events or quests remaking (when I say new I say new, no another copy&paste),
*All that riot for non-s1 costumes and all they did was give Rana water damage instead of sand and gave Yunan an useless class. WHO is going to spend fighter emblems only for turning them into ā ā ā ā ā ā ā paladin???I know he was a tank in past but??? Zynga, you tarnished your image for so little. you guys are very dumb.
Empires & puzzles? Nahhh. Empires? We barely can do anything to the village. Last building was Hero Academy and itĀ“s so annoying and frustrating that itĀ“s just a free 2* troop pull portal.
Puzzles? Heroes are so overpowered nowadays that everything is decided at your starting board. If you canāt fire your specials in 3 turns, ninjas, frigg, odin, elizabeth and kadilen gonna just fry all your heroes at once. Strategy helps but wonāt save you. All we have to do is loop stages and see more and more heroes being launched. LetĀ“s just change the name for something that fits better.
Heroes & Pulls, Gamble & Loop and Copy & Paste are my suggestions.
oh, put the limit-breakers deep in that place as well.
Iām myself no big fan of most new features and because of the huge mass of different portals where itās nearly meaningless to pull because in the next month there will be the next portal with brand new āmust haveā heroes I became f2p around a year ago.
But no new stages? We get new stages every month and when they revealed S4 around half the forum was mad because it was to less time between that and S3.
We get a new event next week, and a completely new maybe tower like event in fall. And people are already complaining about it although there isnāt any information how it will really be.
And complaining about only copy and paste events, Ninja tower for example was a complete new event with complete new mechanics and many (most?) people on the forum hate it.
So although Iām not the biggest fan of the devs I sometimes pity them, regardless what they do, they only hear complainsā¦
I see your points butā¦ The magical thing is called ātowerā and the heroes have the same mana mechanic as ninjas. Circus and Villains are 99% the same as the other challenge events, what to expect? It is not like Iām already complaining, Iām just expecting the worst based on last events, and honestly, Iām not even guilty. Specialy after finding out about the current beta contents.
Yep, it was a new event but with 50 unrewarding stages that demands a load of time. Of curse many people dislike it and now we are getting another ātowerā event like that? Sorry but I canāt just say Iām happy with it.
I meantā¦ The special effects in S4 are cool but they way too repetitive. ItĀ“s only some elemental power ups, why 4, 5 or 6 provinces with the same ābiome effectā elements? Iāve seen people complain about this around Line and here in the forum so I felt confortable to say it as well.
Iām also talking about daily quests that are the exact same forever. in the end I donāt want to offend anyone or say that the game has been the same for years. I mean being bombarded with new heroes every month is really frustrating when you have gameplay problems and a whole forum of disgruntled people.
Thatās a fair pointo, so Iām going to congratulate the devs for the minimal balance adjustment they made to the S1 heroes a few weeks ago and for inserting a wave counter in the stages. But what else?
It doesnāt make sense to organize summons and strategize anymore and thatās really rubbish, in my opinion.
I kinda like having a packed calender. At least theres always something new to do. Rather than s1-s4 map stages.
The biggest complaint is the things they havent address the issues that have been by many of the players of the game.
They havent balanced the game in a while and instead of balancing the game, the developers now want you to pay for a balance with new costumes.
The HA hasnt address the issue with duplicate 5*s which they promised they would do 3 years ago.
What they keep introducing is new heroes that are way stronger than the previous year. The 1st 2 years, the HOTM was up to par with the season 2 heroes as far as power goes. Members of my alliance wont spend gems on AS anymore unless its for Miki. What about balancing S2 heroes?
Now they are close to 20 TP less then whats being introduced by the S4
Ya, the complaints are valid because the mats are nearly impossible to get unless you buy them and by the time you get them now, the hero you wanted to ascend, its nearly outdated.
The Ninja tower isnt making the revenue anymore. So instead of adding new ninjas, a whole new, 15 TP stronger, in less than a year portal that will make cash rather than address the concerns that have been voiced over and over.
I love the mechanics of these heroes but hope they decide to wait a lot longer before introducing them. Its overload
This is the best word to describe my feeling. I do find a lot of the new heroes intriguing. But I do not feel excited, because itās too fast, too soon, too many.
I donāt exactly hate or dislike themā¦ but Iām still trying to absorb everything being thrown our way. And I have trouble feeling excited too as I will get very few of these heroes anyway (as I do not spend)
Yes that for example is really sad, most of the Quests are already outdated, for most things you will find a map stage somewhere, where you get the same things like from the quest but better.
It has, nerfs are also some kind of balance and the outcry was huge ( sorry had to say that) yes I can agree here, there are so many mostly old heroes who are completely left behind comparing new ones and costumes are definitely not the solution.
100% agree, thatās not even something only the player base wants, thatās something the devs promised and till now nothing new about the duplicate problem.
The current Beta buildās testing is ended yesterday, but a new build will arrive later this week. (Most likely tomorrow)

Interestingā¦
Please encourage beta testers to test the crap out of Finley, Alfrike, etc. Including all the previous issues with them (like blind), as well as making sure Mitsukoās reflect doesnāt break the chain BOTH for reflect and bypass cases.
It appears that beta is the entirety of testing for this.
Chain? Why the heck was this implemented as a chain?!
Anyway, thanks again.
