I could said so much about my thoughts about this, but I'm afraid it would put me in the box again for a long while. This is a Plarium issue, its not a player issue. Plarium got a strict its their way or the highway, and sit still in the boat and make no waves. What you see is players that vote with their wallets, and that is what players do.


When I first started play this game, I started to try reach out and connect to a lot of players I came across. Like I do with most mmo's I play. Because, end of the day, mmo's is about social gaming. Hardly anyone of those back then is still playing today. Its just the nature of a game such as this I'm afraid.


Also its not really the players that drop us a mail saying they leaving the game that is the biggest problem its all the ones that just leave without a word at all.

Hi all!


Thank you for your feedbacks, I know some of players are leaving but some are still playing and some are enjoying it. It's just a game and is a personal decision for everyone if he\she playing it or not. 

Also, we can't argue with Plarium, is a game is a business and they are leading it, there are many departaments inside like any other company which analyze the indicators the feedbacks from us and all kinds of factors....


So, in the end all we can do it's just to give them real feedbacks, suggestions about the game and this is it....


ps.: one way to gain more Stoneheart units is playing Stoneheart BG Tournament which just been launched....enjoy it...


Best regards and thank you again!

I don't know what country you are from, but its not just a game, its also a product and players is also paying consumers. Maybe we can't directly argue with Plarium, but we can show our discontent. As with products else, you can find a lot of negative reviews on both products and companies online. Plarium seldom listen to or react to our critics and feedback. No one know their games better than the ones actually playing them, and these are games where social interaction is one of the most important factors to have a game that thrive. 

And you are right it sa personal choice whether someone play it or not, and that is why we seen over time how the game bleed players. Any mmo can only bleed players for so long before it reach a critical mass. Imho, with Stormfall we already passed critical mass with no real hope of turn things around they way things carry on.

I have stayed out of the fray until now.  I have been playing this game for over 3 years.  It appears I am at the end with Stormfall.  Minimum buys at $50.00 american.  I can get a good PS4 game for that and play it for months.  The game cheats at Champions...how pathetic!  Hit a 17K undead with a level 7K and a 4K champion and it clears the champion???? Should be mathematically impossible but it happens continuously.  Business model is one thing...total outright greed is another.  Shame...lot of work, time, and money spent on a game run by fools.  I used to spend about $20 a week, maybe a little more sometimes but I am done.  Plarium will not see another dime.  Way too much favoritism on mega coiners.  Game is supposed to be long term play.  Forget about getting into a castle now with the guardians...Beacon play is destroyed...What is left??  Stoneheart??? That is just another coiner joke.  Developers and company owners should be ashamed of themselves for destroying what once was a decent game

i think the fact that there is a moderator commenting on this thread that i have never heard of before goes to show that too many players are leaving the game. 


Plarium cant even find a player thats well respected to be a moderator.

Hi there Ironapex, its not that Plarium cant find a respected Mod, its a matter of most players in the game cannot restrain themselves from being negative on the forums sometimes and turn down the Moderator jobs that get offered to them, 

when Plarium needs a Moderator they ask around, the last Moderator job some on this forum were asked but they turned it down, it was also asked on the facebook forum so I applied, answered the questionaire correct and got the job, now you may ask yourself, why would anyone become a moderator, well I can tell you why I did

1, Enganging in general conversation where it is constructive is good and can be helpfull most times too, I enjoy that

2, I like to help players out who ask for the help with any game queries

3, being a part of the Mod team gives you 1st hand communication with Plarium employees and I try my hardest to get most bugs to reproduce every time before I pass it onto the team so they can get developers to look into it to get the very annoying bugs fixed as fast as possible

I am a very experienced player of Stormfall, been playing since late 2013, now your Plarium servers and the Facebook server have 3 different things with our games but the rest of it all works the same, 1 thing i do hope gets changed for your Plarium servers is they put in force limits

Sir Dan Saul Knight, its nothing to do with being a brown noser as you say but everything to do with helping out players when they ask for help, being able to get bugs looked into promptly provided I can reproduce them sucessfully as well. 

When we all started to play this game yes it was different but everyone who complained about something in the game was to controlled by the coiners like settlements for example, you have no idea how many complaints were put on the forum about settlements how 1 player was allowed to hold them for the whole duration they were in the game for their time with just 1 archer, and if you took that settlement away, their whole alliance would attack you so you all got hamlets because of this, a 1v1 style player format where 1 person cannot hold a hamlet continuously for the duration of its cycle before it refills again. 

I have helped many players over the years to get ahead in this game with all of the changes, I adapt and learn fast, I also take in other players advice and try it out if I have never done that ingame before, its just a way to get things done faster

Take the stoneheart units for example, while most are rushing to try to get their gargoyles unlocked to build and their abilities upgraded I am still doing pergator upgrades, reason why is because the pergator defensive special abilities are the only thing that will counteract the gargoyle special offense abilities so my defense will be ready if the gargoyle players come for me, being a Mod is not a bad thing, I find it challenging but enjoyable

there used to be "unwritten" rules to settlements if you got there first you got the settlement no need to defend it if someone took it you took it back and if needed with a show of force - settlements could be league defended and gave a different aspect to the PVP game - i cannot be bothered with relic settlements even though i still need some relics - its just a waste of time as are holding fiefs with archers - farms will always be raided so holding a bunch of fiefs only creates a waste of time to reclaim your fiefs


hamlets are controlled by coiners - if they are defended they are heavily defended as shown in a previous post - if a player who does not have massive defense tries to defend their hamlet they lose it to coiners who can wipe them out - a player cannot hold hamlet long enough to collect because of the quest to take a settlement for the free dragons - if they try to defend against this in order to collect they lose because there are people out there who only think of PVP and kill even the small defense in hopes of finding larger amounts there

I agree. Same in our league. So many players are gone, big players, coiners, beginner - all kind of player stopped playing. Some tried to play again but have gone again.

It was to much in the last weeks. The updates and the new features - much to much.

Hi there Sir Dan Saul Knight, this forum is easy compared to the facebook forum, and as far as helping other players go, I see players here even you giving  good gaming advice to others who ask questions in a positive way most of the time so that destroys your theory of no one here ever  posts any help to other players

Why did they choose me? well that I dont know, but it possibly could be based on my behavior on the facebook forum as I do help there too without getting angry

Yes agree with you I don't have an ego, egos in this game will get your troops killed very fast for your 5 minutes of fame, I don't plan to exit this game, I will still be enjoying working out new stratedgys to kill some killers with my offense and to watch other killers die on our mobile defense walls, I have a responsibility to my league to guide them to many victories not losses, only place most of us post the kills is on our league page now

the 3rd part was not really out of context, making complaints on a forum many times in a bad way is being negative, I used the settlements scenario as 1 example from many of real facts

I see all of you here are very helpfull, this forum is like Icecream, mostly sweet smooth and easy :)

I thought about applying few months back. But, Plarium is ONLY looking in the native English community. As I am not English, there wouldn't even be a point for me to apply.

I think what they are looking for is someone that can grasp the English language, you seem to write okay enough. I seen mods in the past that had way worse written language.

I think Gadheras is right you communicate well with your English and would be helpful to others who may not be able to interpret it as well as you do ...


Bio you know we like you!!


I would apply to mod but I still feel there are more qualified people that would make better mods than me .... also I don't wave the Plarium flag and shout their praises!!

Settlements were never controlled by coiners.  Hamlets, yes.  Settlements, no.

The experienced players are the ones who come to you guys with the problems. not you running to the Devs to get them fixed. For your coiner theory, a coiner joins a league, makes friends, then leaves it?  Bragging rights to what?

Dont worry Lord Gadheras, I am well known on my server, I have only shown a very small amount of screenshots to backup what I say when I do comment sometimes on here because you don't know me, its not to brag or boast saying hey I'm better than you, its to proove to you that I do have a lot of ingame experience and can backup what I say, thats all its for, some posts here I dont comment on because a Mod or Player has already given the correct advice to whats being asked so I click like on the comments instead. 

I'm a thorn in the side of some of the biggest  bully coiners in the game on my server because of my never say die attitude in gameplay, I have even gone as far as to wait for them to port from their homespot to go killing beacons and I then port into their homespot and will sit  there for weeks just raiding the castles they killed for resources just to get under their skin, I really can be that evil in the game if it is necessary 

you know I used to complain about some changes to the game or bugs over the years, but I realised that complaining on the forums really got me nowhere so I used to private message the community manager and I did get better results there, the main time I will do a post on the forum is when the game goes down worldwide, I see many of the same people who say I'm quitting the game on the forum are the 1st to post  and complain about the game being down meaning they never actually quit, its just calling bluff 

I have a few coiner friends who play server 2 also and it is virtually all coiners and who has the biggest ego, big coiners vs big coiners and they are still fighting hard at it, many players on server 2 with 200k dragons + to go killing with so yes on some servers coiners will keep on fighting coiners just for that ego trip to say they are the best

Lord Gadheras, Oh dont worry I have seen some leave, but I have also seen many more of the big coiners just call bluff because their league is already sitting cosy in good rank and still hold their own well with a large beacon field, the coiners I have seen actually quit for good are the ones who have lost all of their offense in a beacon counter kill or lost their whole army into battlegrounds, those are the main reasons I have seen coiners actually quit the game for.

If your looking to blame anyone for all of the new addons to the game, blame every player in the game who complained about how boring the original game was, how many times have you seen players complain about old features in the game like can't compete in any development tourneys because they have everything upgraded, have thousands of soulstones and nothing to spend them on, beacons are unwanted and dead in the game, these are just a few that I remember players complaining about so you all get change, Stoneheart so you get upgrades to do, units that require soulstones to build so now you have somewhere to use your soulstones, now its going to be sapphire beacons, its been released on rise of balur game, any beacon on the map can be upgraded by the marshal to become a sapphire beacon, now I saw many complaints about forts being to difficult to get to level 20 because it requires top 10 rank and 5 level 5 beacons to get there, on the road map there will be superforts, I have no idea what it do to our forts though

As far as Plarium goes our voice is with the higher up the ladder employees for the company on the forums from what I have seen but correct me if I am wrong there

Lord Sir Dan Saul Knight, they never asked me which would be much to your surprise, it was advertised on the facebook forum, I applied, done the questionaire and was approved (I wasnt the only one who applied from the facebook forum) and 9 times out of 10, its lack of confidence that stops most from applying who are on the same forum because they know they will cop negativity from their friends on the forum and if the Mod has to place a bann, I have seen players attack a Mod ingame non stop and lose gamer friends because of that and that's something they dont want, me I'm very tough skinned, sure you sometimes get on my nerves a little too much like you but its nothing I cant handle, I've dealt with way worse ingame, 

I can tell your strugging to accept the fact I play on a different server to you, its not like you or Gadheras can just attack my castle if you dissagree with me but I am also used to my castle getting attacked often, not through being a Mod but because, well we are not a nice league to get on the wrong side of in the game, it just doesnt bother me but I do attack back if the player is agressive enough for me to wipe out their offense on them

are you bragging that you are not well liked?



also...


another one of our huge complaints is admins that do not play on our game server.  it was bad enough when it was just the CMs.... now we have moderators too?  that arent beholden to their actions  on thr forum in game?   whats to keep you in line?  how are  you to moderate a game discussion if you arent in the game with us?
