All I have been working on since October is grinding out 125 lvl 10 walls, hero lvls and lab work. So yes this reduction hits hard...wish it had happened 3 months ago would have saved me a lot of effort. Trying to get my new th10 to 30x30 heroes and all lvl 10 walls before working up the defenses from near max th9 specs.

This was not just extra loot that I had laying around and had nothing else to spend it on like some people suggest is the case with everyone.
lol I think this guy is a kid, btw do you really know the definition of DEPRECIATION?Quote:

My god the way a lot of you guys talk it's as if CoC isnt a game and it's a job. Comparing the time with labor and ♥♥♥♥ lol, you'd think CoC was a job or something. Stuff gets cheaper when new things come out.
I love how sharky said in the thread he just closed that the uproar was anticipated and basically SC does what it wants and we just have to live with it. The problem is he's right, if we don't like it then quit and im not going to do that so I guess I have to eat a garbage sandwich and say yummy thank you SC for helping everone under me and not hooking up the ones who earned it. There is a right way and a wrong way to do things and this is the wrong way.
first and foremost, i had almost done all my lavas when the price reduction hit, so I'm sort of in the middle. I don't mind either way, so I'm not on either side. Part of me is actually glad that I won't have to go through all that pumpkin grind like a lot of people did, that being said, I understand the frustrations.
when people use some real life analogies like iphones, xbox, cars, or whatnot, they forget one thing, all these real life products get replaced by the new generations of their own. You don't need to buy an iphone 5 in order to get an iphone 6. Anyone can go to a store and buy an xbox one right away without having to purchase an xbox 360. same with cars. Older generations usually (though not always) hold less value than the newer ones.
However for the walls in coc, every player has to buy each and every single level of walls in order to max them. now every level of walls combined should be considered as a single product. So the value of the final product - max walls - has stayed same, but the total price has reduced.
It's like, say, everyone's building a device that's so shiny and awesome (can dominate the world? or whatever), the device requires multiple parts that one has to work hard to gather. Some people started late so obviously they fall a bit behind, some people don't really care about dominating the world so they don't work hard on gathering the parts. Now some people have tried to be ahead of everyone else and finished building that device, they are proud of their shiny trophy, but all of a sudden, the Creator decides no one needs to work this hard to gather those parts so that everyone who hasn't finished can work not as hard as the ones who have finished. The rest will surely catch up sooner than who have finished expected.
But remember everyone's going to get the same thing eventually, so will the ones who have finished be happy about the change?
This is not a great analogy either, i concur, but i think it's more similar to what we have right now.
EDIT: but i do agree that there's no need to start a petition or something like that. it's a game after all. SC has every right to change the content.
EDIT: a lot of ppl doesn't seem to bother to read the whole post, TLDR: i don't care about the price reduction, i haven't even started pumpkin walls yet. my point is my analogy is bad, but some other analogies in other threads are way worse. period.
This forum is just as toxic as a month ago. Good to know. Thanks, bye.
Can you highlight that point?
Day 20: Still looking for the important point.
You missed the mark in your analogy though.
your saying people can buy the latest thing now with out buying the old first... which is true. But just because you can buy the latest finished product first doesn't mean you didn't buy the older ones first. You paid the current price for the current model.
Thats just life.
Edit: this gave me a good chuckle

That being said, yes I am happy with the cost reduction. It means I won't have to farm 1mil extra per wall for magmas, and also newer players stay interested in the game. People complaining reminds me of MMO players when casuals get equal level gear that raiders. It's the special snowflake syndrome, plus, as newer things are released, the old get cheaper. I mean....it's part of everything. T.V's, phones, computers, seriously lol.
