Interesting PoV, what do you dislike about Alliances?

Game was completely hands off unless you wanted to maximise resources. Combat is slow, uninteresting and often times too easy/impossible depending on how someone has built stuff, and other than PvP it's a joke because the forgotten camps/bases/outposts could be cut through like butter. Having a second base was just more resources, as were any of the subsequent bases.
Command point system was bad; spending way more points to attack the "stronger" forgotten bases for less resources or way less points to attack the weaker neighbour/friend next to you for extreme amounts?
Gaining new tech took way too long and by the time you had it you realised that Pitbull spam or Firehawk rush was the best anyway. You could easily just focus on defense instead of offense and you would never ever lose because of how the combat in the game works. Resource management wasn't fun.
I left when they added those resource packages or whatever and even by then it was becoming some pay to win festival. It felt like a complete grind. Only thing I liked was forums for the guilds (but our guild was one of the best in the entire game).
There are some people who might like it but I don't exactly like doing nothing and being limited so fiercely in a game. At least it's a beta but I feel its too far gone to save, which makes me hope it fails hard.
Also Varrok's points are pretty valid.
