great game, bad developers and player base. summary; Supercell surely hates Boom Beach.
don’t get me wrong, it’s really fun and a good game. but there are too many unsolved and unchanged problems from the beginning of this game.
1. (matchmaking + toxic high level players.) for the start; Boom Beach’s matchmaking is by how many medals you hold from well succeeded attacks on other players islands.
if you win, you gain medals.
the problem is; high level players knows about this system and they abuses it. how? they simply attack less to avoid getting medals and grind up to fight fairly against same level players. instead, they simply keep farming onto low level players. it’s pretty much a fatherless / motherless / affectionless behavior, but they just gatekeep other beginner / low level players from level up or have a more fair game play.
that’s why devs decided to add; Dr. T’s Island and Lt. Hammerman’s Imitation Game and Prototype Troops. (all temporary)
2. (Matchmaking + Victory Rewards) another problem is; low level players always will match against those fatherless / motherless farm players.
but, even if you manage to destroy their stupidly strong defenses, you can earn too few resources to upgrade things on your own base, because ALSO upgrading costs are stupidly expensive in this game.
you basically need to attack like 10 islands to get enough for upgrading stuff.
but, there’s more! if someone attacks your base, they basically can steal your resources in an amount of 10 well succeeded attacks.
additionally, unlike Clash of Clans, you can’t simply find players to attack. you need to wait they invade your map, and it takes like 4 hours to get 2 base.
