Update FEEDBACK

Hi there,

I informed the members of my clan about this post and asked what they thought about the most recent update. I have compiled their comments as feedback for you. I am currently in one of the top 10 clans and don't wish to name it, however I mention this because the bulk of us 'gem' and there is a comment in specific reference to that.


Comments:

1. In general everyone liked the new Hero ability.

2. In general the ability to boost the recovery of heroes was very well received.

3. In general people liked that the update seemed to take cost into consideration. Since we gem we obviously spend real money on the game, we fully realize that no one is forcing us to do this but since we do I thought this bit of feedback might be of interest to you.

4. Some felt that defense was now more difficult because of the Hero ability.

5. Some felt the air defense was not strong enough because of those (blasted) sky lizards, i.e. dragons.

6. Members who have more than 3800 cups discovered they could chat while searching for a raid and really liked this, however once they dropped under 3800 this function was no longer available to them. Since a good part of the Clash experience is 'social' cuppers under 3800 felt that not being able to take part in clan conversation because they spend so much time 'in the clouds' actually took away from their enjoyment of the game.

7. Lastly and not really a feedback comment but more of a question and possible 'bug'. One of the members discovered he was raided while editing his village. He was in clan chat while editing and said that tombstones suddenly appeared. When the other members checked his base it had in fact been raided. Is this perhaps a bug or is it now possible to raid people while they are in edit mode?

Anyway, that's all for now. Thank you for reading.

Is it that hard to refresh the experience with some new gameplay content? Every update is the same. A few tweaks to the user experience in chat, menus etc and then cash grab troop upgrades. The new hero abilities are toted as "free" but in actuality it's just an effort to get people to upgrade their heroes another 5 levels. For me personally the best part of the update was the ability to speed boost hero recovery. Also the ability to chat while visiting/replaying. I would really appreciate seeing some new gameplay content added. Ideally it would be best if the new gameplay was interactive for the entire clan. I am not a software developer and have no idea what it would take to implement live clan wide events or even a "clan wars". However I now play battle beach and samurai siege and both have implemented these ideas and my clan has all shifted their interests. Also other features I have noticed that are successful is having a clan profile and the ability to level up your clan. This is really exciting as higher level clans have perks available that benefit all players as each new level is achieved. One example is at level 12 the entire clan receives a 5% boots to all their troops effectiveness. The clan leveling is well received by all former clash players i know. Also the clan rewards during live events and wars are well worth competing. The last war event was very successful for our "alliance" and we were able to unlock a few rewards for all our hard work. We received a few new temporary attack/defense units and a temporary maxed elixer mine. We all competed as a clan and felt rewarded after all our hard raiding. You can see everyones individual participation so it makes it very exciting and fun. Clash of clans easily has the best raiding AI and graphics but they just don't reward their players for playing. Even the looting has become a major chore that doesn't pay. Yes I am a TH10 player but still I have seen samurai sieges's currency system and they just aren't stingy with the available loot. I can make 5-10 million jade (gold) in an evening of hard raiding. That would be great for me in clash as im currently working on level 9/10 walls. Anyone that know clash knows that making 10 million gold in an evening with a TH10 ain't happening. Yes I understand the loot penalties to help prevent big accounts smashing smaller ones but I get pillaged all the time in siege and it just doesn't bother me that much knowing I can go out and make serious loot in one evening. Anyway this sounds like a samurai siege endorsement but in all actuality I just wish supercell would make an effort to freshen things up for players such as myself that have dedicated a year to this game. Its just not as fun anymore. I think we need a big update next time. Something literally game changing. Sorry for the novel but i feel like this is my last effort. Hopefully someone hears me.

Thanks for your time peeps,

Knox

Hi,

I posted yesterday but a clan mate of mine had a couple new comments so I'm adding them.|

1. He said a friend of his, who has 2900 cups, was able to use clan chat while searching. Previously I had written that this function appeared to be only available to people with 3800 cups or more. I have just over 3000 cups yet the chat while searching function is not available to me.

2. He said he had an issue where he was raided while searching for a raid himself. He'd been searching for about two minutes then when he went back to his own village he found he'd been raided.

Thank you.

I posted yesterday as well but my clan wanted to add more issues we are experiencing. When I and about 2 others went to raid, the action froze. We troubleshot this issue by using several devices and other wi-fi/internet servers.

The issue as it happened: drop troops, nothing occurs, time stops, then about 20 seconds later everything unfreezes but the deplyed troops are dead and we lost the time from the raid itself.

Wonder if others are experiencing similar issues.

Possibly you are using an iPad, have multi tasking gestures enabled, and were deploying troops with 4 fingers, and accidently slid it a little (the way u switch between apps) and then when it came back the troops were dead and time gone. That happened to me before so now i am limited to deploy troops with only 3 fingers at a time, but that is nothing of Supercells fault if ur issue is the same as i have had

this might have been answered already but how many gems were the gem boxes supposed to give you before they were bugged and disabled

Edit: I liked the update but I really want some single player missions if its not too much to ask

My friend got 20.

My feedback is that this is a great update, but I hope to see the gem box re-enabled soon. That was one of the cool parts of this update that got me all happy and jumpy :D

Share similar thoughts as you, though I have already expected nothing worth returning to CoC before this update was released.

Good for those who found reasons to rejoice over this new update, but for some of us veteran players, there's still nothing to entice us in coming back.

Doesn't really matter now though, since I can now spend my time better on other things. I'm just checking the forum once in a while when I happen to have free time.

These are the ten most requested Forum posts that I had seen leading up to the new update. I tried to order them by how desired they seemed to be. SC got one of them right, in my opinion the easiest one by far, but none the less, they did it. The other nine were left to wrought.
The Hero abilities are interesting, and the Level six minions, while they are being highly criticized, are a nice shade of purple. However 90% of the content that was actually commonly requested wasn't even acknowledged.

I have taken several days to write this to calm down, and be sure to fully evaluate the new features, and upon reflection, this update was weak.

If you want your fan base to truly "ooh" and "aww", or more importantly play longer and recruit their friends, give us an update that we ask for. Nothing fancy, just read the Request section, and skim the General section, and send your Cells to work on that. Then we will be happy.
