Been playing this game almost daily for a couple years now, and although I do still enjoy playing, its starting to get abit repetitive and pay to win focused (although its possible to do well without paying its certainly not an easy path to play and requires long periods of play to get the max rewards from events). There's also a bug where the resource selection packs don't work. Also I now have thousands of epic officer stars and badges that I can't use or exchange for useful items
Noticing less and less people playing, guilds across the map that were once full now only have bentleys but no actual players, even in the guild im currently in ive noticed a sharp drop in the number of concurrent players, the problem is once you get to a certain stage the game gets so repetitive a lot of people living lose interest quite quickly not to mention events that attack bases that unless you play the game daily you might miss an event warning and find your base has been attacked.
The problem is there are no set limits for attacks. I was attacked by someone 40 levels higher 33 times in a row. 2 days later 71 times in a row. Then the next day 54 times. It should be no more than 5 levels above or below your rank and no more than 5 times in a week. I quit playing because i can't progress with my base destroyed and no resources to rebuild.
I have enjoyed it but there seems now to be an imbalance of officers. The whole point of having a rock paper stone system is the strategy of having the correct march to beat the enemy but they have overpowered some of the new officers. For example two gold tank officers of similar rank and with similar weapons should never be beaten by two gold infantry officers of similar rank that just makes a farce of the system. So until they correct this there is no point in playing.
While I enjoy the game for the most part, there are some aspects that need improvement. First officer interaction is severely lacking as are wardrobe choices. Also the very low ability to gather the needed resources without buying pacts is very frustraitng
You should not be able to attach someone when they are offline It's easy to defeat someone when they aren't there to defend themselves. I feel only cowards use this strategy. The rules need to be changed that you have to be online when you are attacked and that you can only attack the same person no more than 3 times in a row and you can't attach them week after week I spend to much time and money on this game to have someone just take my resources. I will quit the game if this doesn't change.
Not just Pay to Win, but Pay to Play. There is no strategy or skill involved. Just big spenders stealing from Dolphins and FTP. If you arent in the top guild of the server, you fall forever behind. I stepped away from the game for 3 hours and my account was decimated. Months of hard work, gone forever. Thousands of tedious clicks in the most inefficient game ever created. If you need a full-time unpaid internship, this is the game for you. Worst mechanics I have ever experienced.
So far, its fun but hard to get into: its a little overwhelming having so many shops/exchange points. Too many currencies (experience, gold, energy, AP, oil, etc) makes it messy. However, once that feeling subsides, its fun to play with guilds. In any case, P2W is quite unbalanced, hope theres a way to balance that out. Also game Mods and GMs are inexistent so really not recommended for young people.
Game for Bulleys. It is very hard nearly impossible to delete your account from the game if you want to leave. When you pass a level around 16, you will be open to be attacked by others .they will keep attacking you which will just destroy your city. By the time you repaired it. Your be attacked again. You will have to spend a lot of money to help you build repair and set up your city. Their is no safe zone. The advert which was used is not the game it just uses the characters from the game.
Been playing it for 6 months, customers services reply to you and never sort out the problem. Lots of epic officer's badges hardly been used as they are maxed . Elite recruit doesn't give you more than epic and rarely legendary ones. It has become as Farmville game , send troops to resources tiles and no excitement at all . Lots will leave the game if stays like this . Good luck playing it.
IT'S A PAY TO WIN GAME!!!! If you dont have money, dont waste your time. The rewards you get for free play are very low. The game constantly matches non-spending players with money players leaving the non-spending helpless with no real chance of winning. The Developers will deny this and say "We appreciate your feedback and your suggestion(s) will be relayed the game team." Every update makes the game even worse. WASTE OF TIME!!!
Could be so much better. Wish you could combine boosts, at least some of them, like shields so that if you used 3-8 hour shields, you'd have 24 hours of coverage.
If you're new to this game, don't even bother downloading unless you have several hundred £/$/€ per month to spare. After a promising initial year or two, the developers' greed has got the better of them and they're now purely focussing on big spenders. Small zones with few mostly F2P players are being matched against zones multiple times their size with overpowered whales. F2P don't stand a chance. To illustrate my point, they've just released a boosted skin which has to be bought for £350+!🤦
I do enjoy the friends I have made in game however this is a pay to play/win game. It also has many gambling aspects and rewards players who spend thousands of real world money. A free to play server and or making it cheaper to upgrade officers would be helpful and make a better experience. If you want to compete you have to pay its that simple.
Very saturated game. Heavily favors their own country's players. If you play against 5k servers don't bother. Do not join a zone that is a farming zone you will get bored fast and mostly likely won't be taught the correct way. You don't have to spend money, but eventually you will if you want something. 3 years
Fun and social game, with lot of options to spend (wich is OK) for something you like, but ! 1 once your research, construction, reach maximum level those months of speedups are worthless 2 officers badge and stars should have option to be exchanged 3 resources, gold, speedups, Action points cost definitely must be dropped My review is fair and I took one star for each issue I'm happy to change it when developers keep up with players requests
Fun and I enjoy those I'm playing with. But EVERY event is only winnable if you spend in some way. Either directly by buying the $5 then $10 then $20 then $50 dollar packs, OR spend on items to manually fight enough to hopefully get enough credit to claim the item. Devs are super money hungry and every event is the exact same formula. *Yes all the events are playable without paying, but not winnable without paying*
It keeps on closing down by its self and after doing so won't let me log back in!!!!! What a surprise!?!. Otherwise the women characters were very sexy and beautiful and the game play (what little I got) was fun But it isn't worth downloading till the bugs get sorted so I've got Rod of this game from my phone.
This is one of those where everything is great at first....then the frustrations kick in. So, dont even start this game unless you prepared to fork out serious money. I'm only at a mid range level and the upgrade times etc are ridiculous. I understand that this isn't a free game but I dont like the way they purposefully make things so unattainable that you either give up or pay big bucks. There's more...like glitches they cant seem to sort out, or are purposeful so you have to spend more
Game can be fun but exxessive amount of lag/ game freeze. Game caters only to those spending big money, now. If you spent $$$ in the past good chance it becomes a waste later on with devs constantly changing things. Been playing for 2 +years, still am long way from unlocking certain new ship. No loyalty from kow to the ones that built/ played/ paid for this game early on
Not as advertised and waste of time. New people stand no chance and are completely at the whim of the long time powerful players. Lost everything I built up within seconds and it's far too expensive for resources at the upper levels
Review Update - Been playing for more than a year. In recent events, the game is entirely focused on Stashing through Cashing. Only one who spends money can take the lead in Bio & Normal Fights too.. Others who grew without spending, end up wasting all their resources & troops against big spenders. Which has become lot irritating recently. Many servers are kinda dead due to matching irregularity against servers & many have already left the game.
With the game only having 2 per zone is a little too limited to really enjoy the game overall. The events that are a week long and too focused on spending money is a big problem for a lot of players. Several big guilds bullying the smaller ones is a massive problem for why people just quit the game altogether! The bullying needs to be addressed ASAP!
Stay away from this game, to play at a high level you will have to spend 100 thousand usd or more, for a low spender or free to play, it will take close to a year or longer just to become decent but still very vulnerable. Any tap4fun game should be avoided , developers and customers service is the absolute worst ever.
You have to be able to transfer stars and puzzle pieces to other officers once others are maxed. So getting stars and pieces for blue officers so you either have to buy or wait for good ones says yes this is basically for p2p players. The events are awesome the game play is fun but opening chests and getting the same things over and over gets redundant.
Very Expensive and good game! Get ready to get addicted and breaking the bank! The developers are very greedy. They are not fair. Especially when the game glitches, the rewards gifted to keep the players happy are very cheap. You will feel betrayed on multiple occasion by the developers. You won't move up fast in ranks, until you spend alot of money. Costumer service isn't good for anything, you will hardly get any results if you reach out to them. It's set up to keep you spending!
Game dynamics are good and players are awesome.. but the Devs cheat by omitting info. 5 day event for big prize needing MUCH effort is actually only 4 days as on last day you can suddenly not earn last few items to exchange for prize.. thus they coerce and try to force you to spend money to buy packs, else you lose out on the prize .. from my perspective it's fraud.
If you're gonna play this game, you'd better come with a fat wallet. If not, tons of patience. It takes forever to advance after the first few levels. Great game though and if you get into the right guild and act personable, you'll make some friends and be rewarded accordingly. 😁👍
KoW is starting to get a little too profit driven. Free to play gamers will find it very difficult to compete and become easily discouraged. Pop-up adds at the beginning of the game only reinforce this purchase to play effectively mentality and and do nothing but annoy us long term players who remember when pop-ups didn't exist.
I really like the game but I have one issue.... When I first started playing it was all good. The further I progress into the game the more it freezes and I have to restart. At times it completely locks up my device. Love the game and especially love my guild! But this freezing.issue has become quite annoying. It has gone from a mild inconvenience to a major disturbance. Definitely discourages me from spending any further!
