It's amazing how quickly people forget the majority of people downloaded clash of clans, a game where you decide who you want to attack, not a game which tells you who to attack.

If the 90% of hate/negativity in this thread doesn't show this was a terrible idea then perhaps SC needs to pay a bit more attention.

I have no problem centering the games around the BB but making 99% of the tasks specific to it?
That's just a company that's out of touch with its fan base.
And before you say the forum only makes up a small % I can tell you
FB and twitter are lit up as well.

Haha, let me pay a visit over those two sm too. :D I’m a player but I’m also a consumer and the best I can do is to voice my opinion. After that, if they decide to ignore the concerns from the majority of players then too bad, time for us to switch games. ;)

Cool story

1) Like it our not, builder hall is apart of the game. You can pretend all you want, but it's a fact.
2) Like with troop/spell/defence nerfs/buffs, the game needs balance. You may not agree with these changes, but it keeps the game interesting and forces players to change the way they play. We need more players to contribute to builder base to keep it interesting.
3) Clouds for top tier players hampering the ability to complete main village games within the allotted time! This is the no.1 reason, as I requested about 5 times on the idea forum that the game types needed to be split to allow those who couldn't find enough bases in the time limits a chance to contribute. I can see that instead of just splitting the games and widening the gap between play styles more, they've incentivised builder base by making it exclusive.
4) I expect down the road we will also get main village only games (maybe to celebrate TH12) which I will have to drop cups to participate in, but I won't complain.

Bottom line, there is nothing wrong with these games. It is a positive move by SC and I hope to see more of it!

In fairness, people who dont like the BB will be the vocal segment at the moment, we dont know how many people think the idea is fine, or dont mind that there are no main base tasks.

Having said that, i agree they could have got the better results, without upsetting so many people, i think these games were a mistep, which is bound to happen from time to time.

to keep things in perspective, as a multi accounter, the positive side to getting the supercell ID outweighs the negative side of the these clan games 100 to 1, but you dont see the forums flooded with I love the supercell ID thread.

Negative views are more likely to be expresssed than positive, so before we are too hard on supercell, we need to acknowledge this is just a small mistep on a long Journey. Of course we should tell them we feel Its a mistep (those of us that do), but at the same time keep the anger levels reasonable considering Its just one step of many.

Not a fan of this but I just noticed also the amount of time it will take to complete the builder games.
On the Main I can boost or snipe buildings to complete some challenges quickly. Apart from the few minutes of boost it is a 6-10 minute wait every time if you drop 1 troop or just disconnect. The time commitment is exponentially longer for this game.

And it hasn't "become" 100% BV, this is a one-off special. CG as a whole will still be as it has been after this event.

are you authorised to speak on behalf of supercell for your second point?

on my mini account in the miniclan i saw one mainbase quest. remove obstacles. i took this quest and cancled it. muhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha



no problem the miniclan is for our inactive second accounts.

Check this thread out guys: https://forum.supercell.com/showthre...k-Quickest-Way

Quickest way to Finish Builder Games.

Hey there guys,

Now first off, I'm always the one raising a brow to people complaining about stuff.

But, here's my first thread on this topic and I feel both ashamed and appalled to do this.

Honestly.... who at SC thought of a full builder base clan games? This is THE worst thing I've seen to date.

Firstly, this won't be so bad. But I mean 80% of the players actually have some sort of real life to attend to even though we would (and will) complete this event.

Secondly, every single battle I'm in has some sort of blessed soul deploying mass archers, like the 2 second nerf was suppose to stop this? I think you guys actually motivated EVERYONE to use this now. Sitting there through 3 minutes of pain because they inject this little unwanted offspring of witch characters one by one till they get some sort of 2 star.

I truly loved doing my daily 3 battles and getting these players, having them come back after 3 minutes of unwanted hell to get their 2 stars just to see they have been 3 starred. But THIS event is completely killing my brain and nerves.

The sad thing is, I WILL finish this as most of my clan (otherwise we clean it XD) but PLEASE, give this staff member who thought of this some unpaid leave as punishment for doing this to us and don't do it again??? This event would have been great for the 1st of April......

Now, back to the suffering. I feel better now... prolly only for the next 3 minutes...:facepalm:

It is no different to moaning about a war event when you don't war or a Hog event if you hate hogs.
The game is for everyone no matter which aspect they prefer and if there is an event that you aren't a fan of then simply don't take part. For example...I hate Curling so during the Winter Olympics when it was on I did something more fun and trimmed my toenails.



NB. Please note the comment about sympathy is only addressed at those forumers complaining about us BB fans having our own little event not people who hate the BB but are quite happy to let us play for a few days.

I feel sorry for players like you to whom the side dish (BB) became the main dish. BB was not the reason we started to play this game. It was simply an add-on to this game. Talking about sympathy, I think it's you who needs it the most atm. Don't worry. You have mine.

I agree I really don’t like builder base but past games were really nice where everyone could do either main or B.B. challenges. Just hate being forced to play be way or another.
