Im extremely unhappy with the new "improved" loot system. As a maxed th8. Ive lost 800k Coin in one day. i break my shields because i want to attack. Now i just get wiped out by th9 and revenge is sometimes tough. Very tired of it. I would probably quit playing if it werent for my co-workers in my clan. I no longer find 200k+ bases to raid. Now i will just milk shields and see what happens. I will never spend another $ on this game.
I don't know what it is that has happened, but I notice that I am clicking longer and longer nowadays to find any decent loots. To the point its getting tiresome. If its not the new loot system, then it is something else... Maybe I am just wearing out on the game after over a year of playing, but it used to be easier to just clash and think I am not only burning my resources. Now I can attack less often, as only place to get loot is on high trophies.
Very nice post from OP.
The new loot system does not improve loot for most of players that saving resources for upgrades (you could loot more but lose more as you save more). The only exception is you spend all the loots and not saving it (loot more and not lose more, ie. gold on walls)
The fact that people need to search on average lot more than the old loot system, combined the fact that SC removing inactive base from game searching (concluded by hundreds of post) meaning less resource in the game, was the cause why people struggle with new loot system.
Reduced the cost of search by 50% and double the time to become an inactive base.
Obviously it's different for different level of players, but it's ironic how the "intent" of the new changes appears to have had the complete opposite effect for the mid level TH's.Quote:

Worst update ever.
Wasn't the original ratio 20%? or did I do wrong in that calculation?Quote:

15 million in one night?!? Really??? Is that just gold or gold and elixir combined. Even still, that is more loot than I have ever gotten in a session of raiding. Admittedly I am not a good raider, but I couldn't get that much in 15 hours of raiding, never mind one night.Quote:

Oh, yes, I recall that update. it didn't give me too much concern back then though as the cap has not changed.Quote:
