Faster moving units with Plarium app?


So, I don't really pay much notice to all these pop up things. But when I saw the Plarium app did announce;

 "Loads faster. Plays smoother. Increase your unit's movement speed" 


This in a banner add for it when you login to the game. 


So HOW exactly does that work with faster unit movement times when using this app? Units move faster on the map to and from things or WHAT? If this is the case, you really screwed the pooch didn't you Plarium?

I believe that if you send an attack/reinforcement while using the app they get a 50% speed boost automatically applied.  It may apply to resource caravans as well, I haven't checked.

IF that is true, then once they get most all on the app, it will go to a fee based app.... watch and see. 

And the rest will be totally ignored, unlike  the mostly ignored currently.

We always get 3x unit speed on the Untamed server

Good for attackers and bad for defenders, because they have less time to organise their castle and get reinforcements etc

Interesting how a small change like this can upset the game balance .... and amazing that devs never understand

Does anybody actually send an attack on a castle without boosting it on that server?  I know here doing that would be suicide, if the target is online you have to boost it to under a minute or you're pretty much guaranteed to run into a wall of defense.

Because it loads faster and doesn't depend on your browser's settings that usually cause loading/lagging issues.

You still didn't answer the question.   If the app is better, why give gifts and a speed boost?  People would use the app anyway even without such incentives.


I use my browser to access SF because I have better performance than when using the app.


Incentives to use something isn't needed if that something is better than an alternative.  It will be used on merit alone.


So again, why does Plarium want us using that app so badly?

The fact browser works better for you doesn't mean it works better for everyone.

As I said, Plarium App has better loading for the majority of players and it also has a fewer number of lags.

It's the reason why we decided to promote it.

Yes, you promoted it.     Why do those who use the app have a speed advantage over those who prefer to use the browser?  Why are the devs trying to PUSH us towards using the app?


To put it another way, why are those who prefer to use the browser being punished with a speed reduction penalty?

I'd guess the app runs smoother with fewer bugs, meaning players have fewer problems and submit fewer support tickets, making the devs lives easier.  That's probably why they've been pushing us towards it.
