I agree! I am th10 and have been raking in the loot (gold, elixer, and de) in Master 3 and 2. Even sweeter with the bonus. Gotten enough to max all bldgs except for air def and finally turn back to working on walls. Best of all, I never hit "next" more than 10 times and only hit it that often because I prefer balloons and minions to focus on de and need to find the right base.
The new loot system is great. Saved the game.
Yes he said that. but he also said
Since then, two months, and no graphs or numbers, no update whatsoever, or indication that they are even a little concerned about the negative feedback.
Just complete radio silence from SC over the past two months. Except for a statement that the loot is staying how it is, whether it's good or bad and we just need to deal.
Don't want to be too negative here because as a long time lurker I have a very favorable opinion of Steve.
I was frankly quite surprised that the continued updates he'd promised never happened.
The credibility of Supercell and the mods has definitely taken a hit in the forums since the update, right?
Everyone realises that there are millions of new players from the android community, along with the hundreds of thousands of players who just decide to download the game, along with what I assume to be a few more hundred thousand players who have downloaded the game after seeing the advertisements? I don't believe it's all the new loot systems fault, but the fact that there are now millions more players we have to skip through.
Not really.. The lack of loot was a problem even before they changed the loot system (witch is why they changed it), and before all the new android players joined in.
So it's never really been just about the new loot system, but about the fact that a load of new, more and more expencive upgrades had been added in the last 7-8 updates, while no updates at all was made to the mines and pumps.
Naturally, in any economy, you can't keep upping the expences all the time without increasing the income aswell or you will end up broke... And that was about to happend with the old system, but just got worse with the new, as still no new income was created still.
All could have been fixed in the old system by just adding extra level or buff to mines and collectors, so the output from those again matched the heavy new costs.. Just as this is whats needed if the new system should have any chance to work.
but regardless of what system, you just cant spend $1000 a day on a $500 income without running short of money.
If anything, all those new players have rather made the new loot system less terrible than it would otherwise have been, and this for the simple fact that the game is designed (or has become at least, as likely this was not intended to be) for higher th. Players to pray on lower th. Players for their loot..
This meaning that loot travels upwards (from th.6 looting bellow him, to th.7 looting the th.6, to th.8 looting the th.7...etc), so all those new players are actually rather helping to get at least a bit of loot upwards now..
Only place in this game that more loot can be created by the players than they actually need them selves (as in, mines can produce more gold than needed for updates and gameplay) are at the low levels, so this is basickly where all our loot is comming from these days, traveling up the ranks.
Mines and pumps got their last update level at th. 7 or 8 and hasn't been updated since then.. And there lies the problem.. So at and above th.8 less loot gets produced than is needed and you cant raid with profit from them without new loot comming up through the ranks from bellow.
So if anything, all the new players is actually a help, and it would have been much worse without them :-/
My Th9 has been sat in C2 for about a week and the loot was getting worse and worse, yesterday it got to the point where there actually was nothing worth attacking and I mean nothing.
Then I dropped its cups to G1 and now I'm finding the loot to be much better, although anything would be better than C3/C2, including just not attacking and progressing off of mines and collectors alone (as I see many are now doing). I think G1 is the place to be right now it seems to me that it's the most popular league for forum farmers at the moment, because I actually found three forum clan members in the course of an hour last night, one that was from cDTP that I really wish I hadn't bothered to attack 😖
Anyway back to topic, loot is still much much worse than it was before patch and I'm pretty sure that this is all part of SC's plan. As to this thread, I think it's a bit unfair, why target Steve about this? After all he really has no control over what happens in the game.
There is still some loot to be had out there, but you have to move around a lot to get at it. Good Luck.
