War of Legions

I love this game! I’ve played it for like 10 years. Truly an amazing game. I wish more people played it. I’ve never encountered a video game that is more enjoyable for me.

I used to play two years ago, had a level 75 account I got a new phone and haven’t been able to data transfer at all. I log in and it still doesn’t work. It’s broken. Every option you pick has a load times and it takes a few seconds and it gets tiring and it doesn’t have smooth gameplay. I don’t care much for graphics or visuals but it doesn’t run smoothly at all. They barely get any new incoming players coming in so the community is full of high levels and it’s hard to even find a battle with someone who’s even the same level as you to get Relics. Expect to be battled by commanders higher levels than you and have a higher ratio loses than wins. Sure, you can join a guild but they’re all dead, half the time you are the only one who’s participating. You have to pay to even have a chance to even get far into the event challenges, I get it the company needs to survive, but it’s just ridiculous the amount of jewels you need to pay for such simple things.

I've played War of Legions since about 4 years ago, when I had already played Dark Summoner for several years. I liked Dark Summoner, so I tried War of Legions soon after it came out. I've enjoyed War of Legions, too, and I created an A-team ID, connected to both accounts, so that I could easily transfer to new devices. Through several device upgrades, my A-team ID worked fine. I upgraded from iPhone 4 or 5, to iPhone 6 and 7, and now to a new iPhone XS. Unfortunately, it seems we've hit the proverbial wall - somehow the game is not now processing my data transfer to the new device. The game downloaded fine and the A-team Data Transfer portal accepted my login, but the game never (through many attempts) processed my data transfer. All elements were in place, but the game would not process the transfer. Though that was bad enough, the situation was further aggravated by the A-team support people. I don't know whether to chalk it up to language barrier, or disinterest, or incompetence, or some other cause - like maybe they were hacked - but A-team support sent me a questionaire to collect details about my account - so they could "verify" my account. That was the purpose of the A-team ID - to always have built-in verification and to facilitate the data transfer process. I wasn't suspicious until they sent me, again, the same questionaire - within hours of submitting my answers to the first one. This makes me believe they are jerking me around or maybe they were hacked - and the hackers are just having a merry good laugh at my expense. Other reviewers have mentioned that A-team might treat "free," non-paying players with disinterest or disdain, and I suppose this is certainly possible. I know my A-team ID works because I transferred my Dark Summoner data without any issue - and that game has continued without any issue. It is only War of Legions that is being troublesome, and it seems I am virtually against the wall: as the game will not transfer my data and War of Legions support will not help, I can only start over or abandon it. I will not start over.
