March of Empires: War of Lords

addicting, BUT game is still unstable even after latest update. It will kick you out and it wont load past 71 % for a few minutes. Sad, even after all these updates :(

Has numerous bugs that appear and disappear. Some are from original game install and after 4 updates. Customer care is a joke. Gameloft only cares money. Reboots on its own. constantly loses connection. Last update was better, but still flawed

Game graphics, awards and ease to upgrade city are great, 5 stars. The players who play the game, on the other hand are a mix of alpha bullies and folks who just want to have fun playing a game. Revenge and bully blitz attacks happen constantly. Developer should include a cool down period for alliance jumpers and limit how many times a city can be attacked in a row. I am a full grown adult and am amazed at how much bullying goes on in this game and everyone either accepts it or instigates it, so -4 stars. This game is not for impressionable kids or nice good-hearted people. Overall score 1 star.

You have to accept the game as-is. It's quite a good game if others are playing, but many players have given up. In the end-game, I imagine only 100 players or so per realm would be active. Getting in early has it's benefits since it's easy to get free gold from events. Down the road, it may be more difficult for new players to win the events. Lots of bugs, such as chat filtering. Simple words like 'our' and 'speed' are censored. Even 'gameloft' is censored. The VIP program is buggy as well; not giving you the perks that it claims to distribute e.g. gold, energy refills, etc. There's a discrepancy between the phone version and computer version where trading on your phone gives you 1/10 of what you can do on the computer. Finally, there are a few hackers already. Gameloft isn't known for addressing hackers since it drives other people to spend real money to catch up. That's only a observation, and it might not be completely true, but perception is reality.

The game still crashes more than it should, however it's getting better and customer care has been outstanding. One complaint I keep hearing is, "Where are the instructions?" This is a complex game and learning it is a months long process. That part can be tedious and frustrating. Then one day you look back and think, "Ah, if only I knew that at the beginning!" Big hint to Gameloft - Publish the basic instructions and rules! It will make the game more fun. Overall I am rating this game a strong 8.5 out of 10, with 10 the best.

The game itself is great fun. I've been building up my castle, fighting enemies, banishing enemies, competing with my fellow kings and queens, earning points and receiving prizes to help me advance in the game. I love playing this game because of these aspects. The graphics are wonderful too. I'm disappointed with the following points. Better instructions/links inside the game would be EXTREMELY helpful! Microsoft & Gameloft (GL) Customer Support are a joke! They don't answer people's questions & don't respond if a customer has a problem. People have lost their accounts due to GL's updates, and GL doesn't give the people their accounts back to them. The biggest complaint I have is that the game's a money pit - in order to advance, you must have gold & silver to get resources & build your castle & troops. Nothing you do in the game's free. The download to play the game is free, but if you want to get ahead, you need to spend money. Not everyone can or should do that.

I started playing this game,and I love it,i spent 30$,on it,tohelp get started building my city up,now I cant log into the game,it keeps saying no internet connection,retry,when I do have connection.now I just threw away my 30$,plz fix this,or give me my money back .ty..............its fixed now.great game,lots of fun.

This game is horrible, their are people who literally spend thousands of dollars, yes no joke, just to build massive armies so they can run around attacking everybody smaller than them which doesn't give anybody who doesn't spend tons of money a chance. Most of the players play dirty with no rules or honor and the game is geared to work that way. Not a lot of active players in any of the realms due to reasons mentioned. Lots of people start out in a realm then the lil rich kids rush straight to the throne without upgrading anything then they spend all day attacking people who don't have a lot of money to spend. It's really sad at how serious those rich kids take the game, spending 24/7 online and spending thousands of dollars all so they can pretend to be the tough guy that they aren't in reality, lol, very sad. I would give this game negative stars if the option was available, yea it is that bad and it moves horribly slow.
