Is there no way to fix it to where the territory maps can still be upgraded with gas and crystal, because with troops we are gettin no where. A lvl 29k guy got mad at my leader because he took a few bases from him in the player tourny and yeah the lvl 29k guy ended up in 3rd place. He is "poofing" all of our high level bases that we put troops in...it would be one thing if we could upgrade the bases back but we cant, and we cant make troops fast enough to make up for what he is taking from us. Please Kabam figure something out to help with this matter...

You can still use C & G to upgrade bases by moving yours. The problem is, there's a 2k max. A 29k guy will walk through those with 5 marines. LOL

Honestly speaking,

That is the consequence of challenging a person that got much more power then yourself.

You can't blame that 29k guy. Your leader made a wrong decision, and the alliance surely deserve to suffer from it...

It's tough, but this is a war game...

Back to the topic... I do agree to allow C/G upgrade until 2k. Otherwise, there will be no point farming.

Very wrong....the $ players and the HIGH level players will DOMINATE....oh yea the rest will NOT PLAY.....after they figure out that there LOSES of shrikes are GONE from there total...then there ALLIANCE will suffer on the REAL map. Just a waist of time....not my time or resources and not my $ until they fix the damn FLASHDRIVE BUGS that pop up all the time ....then you go on a 6 minute timeout from attacking on the MAP just after we use the 5 min 8x EXP.

You were right, by the end of the tournament the only ones that did good were the $$ and high level players,but i had fun.

I have 3 accounts of 3 sectors, on one I have spent a considerable amount of $$$ on (nearly $1600) - Lvl 5600 and nothing on the other two, lvl 1500 and 1000. It was on the other two non paid accounts that this great update has really helped me progress those accounts, giving me a chance to win Cores for upgrades (which I did on both accounts with ease) as I very rarely win cores in zoot etc. On my paid account I realised that in order to get first prize, I would have to invest in a minimum of 2000 plat to come first (if not more depending who's in your sector.) And do this right on the last hour of play upgrading core bases to 10k but only with the help of my lvl 11 silos, alliance and lots of 30% speed ups. So chose not to - this time. This also leads me on to the frequent posts I read about players gaining thousands of levels in a very short space of time... they are not cheating just using their brains/cash with the above method to good effect...

This update is nothing but good for free playing players, and has giving the paying players something to fight for as well, in short something for everyone!!

When is the next tournament? When they were released i kind of expected them to be quite regular, having a player tournament, 3 day wait, then an alliance tournament, 3 days wait and so on. Is this not the case, if not how regular will they be and when can we expect the next one.

Also can you make the map have various levels next time as it gets a bit boring taking 20s so in the end many players end up taking other peoples high bases. Also to improve this I feel the exponential use of Crystal and gas is a fairer way of upgrading the maps as otherwise players dump loads of units on at the last minute and so players who spent days getting loads of bases, lose out to people who have less than 20 just because they have the units to do so.
Final thing I'm going to say is can you make the high bases decrease by 0.5k or at least 1k as, the high level players seem to just take the 10ks and it is a bit disappointing, wasting 10k units on getting a base up to 10k when a player attacks it and it becomes a 2k.

+20

or just have a tournament where "most # of bases win", and not "highest map score". that way, the first few days would matter more than dumping units at last minute.

not saying the "highest map score" sort of tournament is bad. but we could alternate between the 2 modes....
