Spring Update 2019 - In-game Economy Changes

These changes dont address the problem with heroes lagging behind. Sure you can max out a th9 or th10 super fast now but your going to either:

1. Have low level heroes when your village is maxed otherwise.

2. Waste hundreads of millions of resources waiting for heroes to finish before advancing.


The reduction in time just helps rushers rush faster. With CoC being a strategy game, it encourages people to play the game poorly in respect to village advancement compared to practical hero advancement. If one doesn't know why hero levels are important compared to village development, disregard everything you just read.

awesome, i wanting to reduce the cost of giants to make more donations :)

And no, the clouds fix is not in this update. We've never said it was.

That is not REMOTELY close to a feasible comparison. For starters, the car wasn't free to drive, with faster MPH unlocked for a price. Apples to BANANAS comparison.

No. It seems the clouds update is actually that June 2034 date everyone chuckled at earlier. In the meantime they're still working on giveaways for the newbies that the people who are stuck in the clouds ALL paid for, one way or another.

Cheeky.

This makes me wonder if they are gonna shut the game down soon. Since I have never scene things go so cheep before. Sorta like when a store is going out of business everything much go. I hope not. But it seems they want to get every last bit of gems sales as fast as they can all you kids be fearful.

They haven't been "so cheap" as now because they consistently decrease the prices and times, for the last 5-7 years they've done this. As they add more content, the make things cheaper and quicker up front. This is nothing new.

How is speeding things up driving gem sales? Do you need MORE gems when your builders are free MORE often?

Or you're going to stop neglecting heroes, farm DE, use your builders more on heroes, and finish everything at relatively the same time. Having heroes either ahead of or lagging other upgrades is a direct correlation to how well you manage the resources you have and which resources you target when raiding.

Nonsense.

Obviously you don't understand that gold and elixir is accumulated at a faster rate even when dark elixir is what is the priority. A rate so great that it does exactly what I explained. And here is no need to use the pronoun "you" as this is not an aspect of the game that I ever said I struggle with.

Tbh i dont like the supercell staff attitude towards older player on this update. I undersand that this update is necessary to keep new players playing so that the game doesnt die but you could at least say to the older players we're sorry we have to do this or give us some recognition instead of darian talking to us in a condescending tone saying that us feeling upset is bad. I think in any field of life you would get upset if you worked hard on something and invest a lot of time and money only to have someone else achieve the same result much easier. Also i disagree on what they say about focusing on your own game. The sense of competition is very important in clash of clans, i think it is untrue to say that we play this game only for ourselves and not for the recognition of clanmates/friends/players

Whenever a big new update like this goes live. Most of the people returned back to clash of clans from pubg.

"you" is the pronoun you used, I assumed that meant the general "you" as opposed to anyone specific. Funny how you're so offended over your own wording though.

If someone isn't smart enough to figure out how to balance their upgrades and resources, that's not going to change just because of this update. It's actually VERY simple to focus on DE at the expense of other things...go make elixir heavy armies, go dump your gold into walls, don't attack a base unless it offers significant DE, and only target the DE there. Most people just don't WANT to do that. It's simple to do if someone is concerned about balancing the 3, most people just choose not to because other methods which result in higher gold and elixir at the expense of DE are more convenient.
