What Changed in the Maintenance

There has been a lot of speculation about what changed during the maintenance, so I wanted to create a central place to get your information.

Here's what changed:

• A bug was fixed to help ensure fair play. There were some issues with a small amount of players abusing/bending rules and we felt we needed to rectify that situation so that everyone has a chance at the top.
• Bug was fixed that caused defenses won to not be displayed in some cases
• Changes/Fixes for Personal Break

On another note, the gem box will require an update, not a maintenance, to fix. It will be back with the next update.

Please discuss these changes here.

This is a step in the right direction. Your patrons are asking for fixes to existing game content. I'm looking forward to seeing how this fix affects game-play and to the ADDITIONAL game fixes you have planned.

What were the changes? More often? Longer duration?

Didn't work, that tool is still very much alive and ruining this game.

Thanks for the info

This was actually the first thing in a while that I'm happy about! Nice job and thanks for addressing these issues, it's really good to see SC care more about fair play than about gems! :D

Interesting how none of these changes affect you. (Being TH8 and all)

Yay no more graphical bugs!

thanks for making this thread to clear things up, a lot of people including myself was wondering what was happening, a lot of threads getting created and closed.

It's interesting that right now we have 5 players in the top 200 with nothing in the attack/defence stat area.

It's even more interesting that the number one player is one of them.

And thanks :3 :)

I would love it if someone from Supercell could please let us know what exactly happened with the Gem box, I mean it was like all hyped up and it lasted like 2 minutes.

I would really appreciate it if someone could explain to us why it was disabled and if so how long till approx will it take for it to return?

Supposedly, it wasn't giving gems when destroyed. Steve also said the bug was fixed and tested, but there's no way to put it back in without another update. Make of that what you will...my thoughts on it is that if its ready to go, yet not being released in its own little update, it means we have an actual update coming sooner rather than later. Maybe end of this month. But thats must my guess on the matter.

I won like 6 defences in a row without getting a shield and got like 100 trophies, and then lost one for -6 trophies, but when I went on it only said in that message that pops up.... "Chief you got attacked, blah blah blah, -6 trophies"
Is this the bug you were talking about?

That's happened to me before.

I suspect the corporate goblins at Softbank thought that handing out too many free gems (marketing expense) would impact their bottom lines negatively. But broken promise is bad PR and could alienate a dissatisfied customer base even further. So they reached a compromise to delay it.

Thank you Super Cell for addressing some of the issues. Hopefully other points will be adjusted as well in some other maintainance break or update in the future.

cheers,

But what you haven't answered, and many have asked, is what changes were made?

Hi all,

I start to play after the Maintenance and i got the Take a break message, i think the time i have been playing is approximate 6 hours. So I wonder if the personal break change to 6 hours? Sorry for my bad English.

Thanks

Although I am not a champion player but still this is very good thing SC did
Was hoping it would gem box surprise

I hate the fact I cut down all my trees to try and get the box and it was not even possible to receive at the time because of the problem with it.

Was it reduced from 8 hrs?

I started playing after work 6 hrs ago...just got booted for playing too long.

so i hope there will be 6 sneak peeks instead of 5. Gem box shouldn't be counted as a "new" thing in a game.

thx for the info tho

edit: wrong thread sorry

A reduction of the personal break rule from 8 hours to 6 hours is a good thing. Now the players who stay on 24 hours a day can be attacked 4 times a day instead of 3 times a day :) this should not effect 99% of the player base but should help some of the search times for players in champ league.

Sorry if I missed it in the thread / the OP (but I've really been sifting through),
but has the personal break been shortened to 6 hours?

Not that I mind being reminded after 6 instead of 8 hours that I need to pay attention to real life ;)
but some advanced warning in the maintenance notes would have been nice?

I spent 5 mins freaking out with a dragon in my CC...
...which is better than a CC golem, but still... :)

Sorry but there's not much to discuss here like it is. About point #1, what bug? And those who abused it just get a slap and are now ready to find and abuse/bend the next? Nice.

Also silly that SC proudly post on its facebook page an interview with a player which is abusing/bending bugs. GG.

Dear Steve, could you please be more vague?

lol just kidding. But seriously, give us the details. I still don't know what was changed. Now we know the 3 general categories where the fixes were applied, but we do not know the exact issues that were fixed. It sounds like a doctor telling the patient that "hey you had problems with your lungs, liver, and knees. But I got them fixed." You see what I mean? ;)

Oh, just saw this.

IMVHO, forcing us to break every 6 hours instead of 8 can hardly be seen as a good thing.

It's long been established that the higher you climb, the thinner the trophy offerings are:
my clannies approaching 3.7K are already hauling in only 15-20 cups per 8 hours.
When they log off on defense, ESPECIALLY after the last update,
they get tooled for a major loss which can sometimes take more than a day to regain.

Forcing them to log off more often doesn't seem to help very much... but maybe I'm wrong.

Obviously they don't want more people to go out and do some research on how to also abuse.

I agree Maggie. Many of the people that haven't reached champ don't understand the frustration and emotional impact of losing those trophies that they've worked so hard for can cause. Bleh... No game can ever be balanced anyways.

If they are on 24 hours a day like you are saying they are either ♥♥♥♥♥ing (so therefore contributing to the issue) or need to get a grip on reality as sitting on a iPhone game for more than 8 hours at a time can't be good for anyone.

Personally I think SC should just change it so we can be attacked while online, the reasons we couldn't have been addressed now and would fix a lot of exploits people use.....and dare I say it improve loot.

ggreat changes!

there are lots of things to do yet to avoid che a ts up there

If these changes work... and cause these players to stop abusing the game then I'm all for it... Hide the details!

I'm completely disgusted with some of the things I have found out after watching a youtube video today that was posted approx. 1 hour ago and has all the details of what these "top" players are doing. I always thought Supercell had a pretty good handle on things like this, but, now I'm finding out otherwise... very disgusted... Thank you for starting to implement changes Supercell...I hope you watch the video I'm referring to and follow the advice given.

I'm seeing a noticable change in available cups in champ I think.

I agree. I started at 3371 this morning and got to 3453 after about four hours. The most noticeable thing was that it did not take hours of "nexts" to get good cup offers.

Don't know if you used to be a politician steve.. But you kinda say a lot without really saying anything ? Lol

Would be great if you could maybe be a bit more specific, so we could actually dicuss the changes in this tread instead making it a guessing tread about what may or may not have been changed :-)

Like the "Changes/Fixes for personal break".. Is it a secret what was changed, or any other reason to not just say what the actual change made was ?

6 hour forced break?!?!!!! What the heck!!!

Maybe tell us you shortened it before we get locked out of our accounts in champions league with no defense cc troops!

do any of you guys know can you buy gems with a itunes gift card?

Yes you can buy gems with an itunes gc.

Which brings me back to the question:

Can we have official confirmation as to whether the personal break has been shortened to 6 hours?

'Tis so from all the anecdotal evidence,
but something as big as shaving 2 hours from the maximum number of hours I can stay online should be made known officially.

-----
The little (thumb twiddling) Potatroll

Shortening the break by a few hours isn't that big of a deal...
Sheesh! :eek:

Good boy Steve, good boy

No one should ever complain about a 6 hour break. I don't want to judge peoples lives, but come on. Either you are staring at a small screen for 6 hours or abusing the system by keeping your device active, what has this society come to?

Most people sleep 8 hours, leaving 16 hours awake. Hardcore players will play 2 exactly perfectly even sessions then sleep. Now you play two 6 hour sessions then a 4 hours wasting 2 hours of the time you have allotted.

Maybe SC wants us to play 18 hours a day:rolleyes:

If you play that kind of schedule you better have a maxed out base and be top 10. If not, then just quit because your wasting your time haha! Not intended for you directly, just anyone who plays on that kind of a schedule. Thats redicilous

That is a lot of time dedicated to playing with your CoC.;) Hats off to you for that kind of dedication.

Its a good thing that they fixed this loophole. But it's pretty funny how something as simple as the Gem Box takes one update to fix :rolleyes:

What actually changed with the maint in regards to the forced break anyone know or is it like the builder bug how in 1 update they said in the description they fixed without actually fixing it so can anyone say what they did

thank you we have all been waiting for this day!

YAYY! hopefully we'll get a new #1!(:

I am writing this as I am "enjoying" my second forced break of the day. I have never heard of a game where the company actually wants you to not be playing it too long. It feels like this is designed to "fix" a problem that only affects the top 1% of trophy hunters. For the other 99% of us the pool of matches is big enough that someone staying on for a long time is a non-issue. I feel like I am being punished because some of the top 200 players use loopholes and angles to get around the spirit of the game. Deal with that issue in a way that doesn't negatively impact the vast majority of us. SC seems full of pretty smart people and my hope is they can come up with a better way than this. Thanks for listening.

will that make you sleep better at night? ;)

You are being punished for not going out and doing something with your day. Nobody should have to set such a lenghty time limit. The fact that you are complaining about it is a certain sign that you have a gaming addiction.

Agreed completely. I admit I am addicted to this, but not even close to that extent. I mean, can you not by pass this breaknby signing off for 5 minutes? I have personally never spent more than an hour straight, but surely 6 hours is long enough. If you are bypassing loopholes by keeping your device active, also another sure sign of strong addiction.

I noticed a bug in the friends section, it shows none of my friends in leagues, but when I look at their profile, it shows their league perfectly fine.

Even without taking the multitudes of "Loot Sucks, SuperCell" into comparison after an update,
I hardly think that what a few of us in this thread can constitute as complaining.

We have merely noticed a difference in the time that we are allowed to play uninterrupted
& am asking for a formal confirmation if that is the case.

Now, how we spend our 24 H in a day is entirely up to us
& should not be the subject of scrutiny.

After a year of playing, I have mastered the art of keeping my iPad alive
whilst going about my daily chores / work.
That is why I love my miniball army.
It gives me time to paint my nails, cook, score an A, etc...

(I won't even touch on the subject of the difference of game play
when you are say, 3K cups above and below;
and if you are trying to push trophies vs. farming low collector raids.)

And quite frankly, how each and every one of us closes to spend our time
is none of your business & shouldn't even be open for discussion.
