I honestly wish I could create a device that would stop people's tunnel vision. So I'm going to put the "other sides" point of view in a clear and concise way to make it clearer.
So why are people asking for a change in comforting.
- Account sharing and bot comforting has made it almost impossible to cap cities. In Age 2 this is of a major concern because HC's have a huge strategic importance.
Ok you'll have notice I've underlined two words. These two things are key as to why a change will be lucky to last a month before further frustration.
- The first key thing is that botters will change their codes, if there isn't a glitch that will allow them to stack comforts. They'll either place alts nearby all their cities to constantly reinforce their city under attack and program it to truce at a certain point. They won't need to worry about trying to comfort up, their bot will apply a speech text. By the time the truces ends, city will either be fully garrisoned or placed in holiday. It may even be programmed to port away.
- Account sharers will just jump on to the account and defend it.
Which will make truces and holidaying the next agenda which will apparently need fixing because, shock horror it's made the game unplayable. And oh cities will need to be locked in place too. Can't have them porting away, can we?
- As for HC's which can not be truced or put into holiday, Age 2 will see an explosion of noob or flat fillers blocking the surrounding flats to make it impossible to get close to various HC's
Leaving the legit players to pick the pieces up thanks to another change. Until the root problem is solved, in this case botting, alts, account sharing and various other magic imps. Then it will keep going around and around. That is why a comfort change won't work.
