Hi all!
As Paul said before I heard (and there is another post on suggestion thread too) the beacons mechanics will change soon, devs are working at this and it's one of reasons Beacon Massacre didn't happen in the last months and I hope this will change the balance between off and deff too.
Best regards!
BogdanThere is what, soon 2 months since Alina said in the community chat it was being looked into. Just to roll out the mechanics they got on the facebook version would go a long way, and wouldn't require much effort at all to make happen. As for no beacon massacre didnt happen in the last month, maybe there is no money to be had in those any longer, if no one fight and no heavy loss's then no money to be earned on revives and similar.Hi all!

is because you don't play the game we play.
The only thing Plarium is working on is another thing to throw our debits card at.
And guise who is going to win the debit card throwing tournament. VIP players, who are gifted with 50K sapphires and over 2 million troops per month.
When the beacon massacre was announced that it will come out, I discussed the impact that it will have with many players. Upon realising that it won't be good for the game, I personally contacted Plarium and asked them to pull it out. I had over 200 Marshal's and captains sign a petition to stop the beacon massacre.
Did anyone listen. NOPE. Now what I typed and predicted over 1 years ago has happened. Beacons are dead, the game is dying.
Now I am fighting against the propaganda that is presented as the form of VIP program.
And guise who is listening. NO ONE.
I give it three month, and we will have no forts over level 8 in the darkplain.
You can run and have your international NAP all u like KT, EMPs, Dominus, for your forts will fall. You can translate all your flash codes into whatever version you want Plarium, unless you stop the VIP program, and reverse Black market to its original form. No one apart from your testers will play your game.

Hi!
Remember it's just a game, a product, a good one and it's just the decision of the producer how is managed, what are the developments, the strategies for marketing for a good sell....that's all...
Best regards!

oh yes...i follow everything i can find of Mr. Shalel. be careful....mentioning his name can get you banned. it seems a lot of what he says is the opposite of the CM cue cards.IronApex Turok said:
im pretty sure plarium will go down in history as a text book case of how not to run a gaming community.
a meteoric rise to the top and then a crash and burn. "dont pull a plarium" will be the advice techies give new gaming start ups.'dont pull a Zynga' was around for a very long time .... plarium thought it a good idea to mirror their decline
Mostly due to Avi Shalel's determination to "double revenue EVERY year" (look for multiple quotes on the internet)
Watch out Aristocrat - you will be left holding the ticking time bomb
Afaik the new owners was mostly interested in their mobile platform to expand on. Its like when someone buy up a company to aquire certain techs or components then butcher and liquidate the rest short after.IronApex Turok said:

Because no matter how much we as players we hate the short term money grab/exploitation of the games at the expense of their long term future, the guys that owned Plarium made $500bn out of this scenario. That is smart and unfortunately may well become the text book of how to run a gaming community and make bucket loads of money. Horrible for gamers, horrible for anyone has a love and passion for creating great games.
The fools are the ones that bought it, just as the wheels were about to fall off (but as is the case when buying a private company - when would the owners try and sell out other than at the peak of the value - lol)
We of course are stupid for hanging on so long. We should have left, given the writing was on the wall a good 2 years ago.
It's a shame that it is so hard to put down your hobby that you have invested so much time and energy into (and that is ultimately what was exploited - they knew they could run the games into the ground and it would be a while before everyone left)

BogdanBeacon Massacre didnt happened in the last months BECAUSE there are no Beacons to downgrade :)))
The reasons of beacon distruction are:
1. beacon massacre.
2. excesive coining
3. the number of beacons is to big. Devs inserted to many beacons on the map.
I hope that UPDATE from Devs will be soon...beacause are 7 months or more, from when they promise a change
