COC - Time Consumption & Game Play

Soooo.... I've hit a road block recently... Im level 107 now and nothing is under $6,400,000 for me to upgrade.

Ive ran out of stuff to use elixer on, but whats most frustrating is how much time it takes to make money to upgrade something.

At this rate, i have to Search through 60-100 towns JUST to find ONE over 100K raid.. problem is i spent majority of my winnings looking for a town then have to wait 30mins to raid again. All in all what im getting at is the game isnt even fun anymore and is more of a chore.

Seems like everyone in my clan is starting to fall off because its just too much time to make money when your at TH10 and everything is so expensive. I struggle to keep ONE builder busy and im an active player. Between my job, my girlfriend and my social activity's I just cant keep up with the game anymore. Still manage to donate 2000+ troops a week but i mean it feels like thats all i can do now, thats all im worth.

The game is moving at a snails pace, walls are 500K a piece (for ONE WALL!!!!)

Please do something to make this game not so painful for those in higher levels.. Give us lucrative bonus's for winning raids.. you know, a bonus that actually makes a difference for us TH10 ppl, upgrade all the mine's and collector's as well as storages for LVL 10 TH.. easy to do and solves 90% of the problems for people ♥♥♥♥♥ing about this game

but most of all... add a new wall system.. Im about to spend 3 months spending 6 hours a day turning my digital purple walls to black... you know how fuxking sad that sounds ?? LOL

add new cheaper wall levels in between the ones you already have set so you dont disturb the system already in place.

Just please... do something cause i really dont wanna stop playing but i cant even find the motivation to play knowing my hours go basically nowhere at this level.


not trying to be a ♥♥♥♥♥ and complain but i mean ♥♥♥♥, ive spent almost 2 years playing this game and it sucks to get so far in it that its no longer fun.

i dunno what wall you are buying for 800k... Lego walls (lvl 9) are 1 million.. and skull walls (lvl8) are 500,000

Can't say I didn't miss that either lol

I honestly dedicated too much time to quit now lol

what the hell can i do to keep my motivation there through the tough times.. everything is a chore at this level.

Watch some pushing videos, godson's stuff, or chief pat for motivation...or just take a break

Th10 with ugly pink walls? I had them all Skulls at Th8.

lvl 8 are easy, It gets tough when walls are 3m each. Then balancing defense on that is even harder. Find a new range.

All the levels are easy.. it's simply about how much time you can put in. Icarus seemed to blow through 3mill walls.

I'll agree with the op, the game begins to feel a bit like work at some point. The nexting really hurts. I used to play quite a bit while watching TV. Pause for a couple of minutes and attack. Go back to watching TV or unloading laundry etc until my next army was ready. Sometimes now it takes so long to find an attack.. instead of getting other things done I'm staring at a screen hitting next. A lot of times if my first few attacks take forever once I'm home I'll just quit for the night. It's really slowed down my progress but if it's not fun then why play? The only reason I really try anymore is because I feel like I have so much invested already.

There are only so many bases and once the collectors dry up people start going after the storage bases. Eventually, there's nothing left but bases with 7-60k. The weekends can be brutal at times.

this is exactly how i feel, Ive invested too much time to quit.


Also, i dont have pink walls lol there dark purple and im not looking forward to spending 3 months of my spare time turning my dark purple walls black. 500K = 5 raids these days.. its too hard to find good towns to raid so its too time consuming. I dont get why they needed to make upgrades such a big difference. just make more upgrades for items with smaller differences and keep us active and busy rather then long winded upgrades that take months to save up for.

6 lvl lv 8 walls equate to 1 level 10 walls - puts it into perspective?

Lvl 3 - X Bows
Lvl 2 - Inferno Towers
Lvl 7 - Hidden Tesla's
Lvl 11 - Archer Towers
Lvl 11 - Cannons
Lvl 7 - Air Defense
Lvl 8 - Wizard Towers
Every Drill Max'd Out
Troops Max'd out with exception for Golems which im doing now
Barbarian King - 11
Archer Queen - 10

Just take a break from the game. Trust me, it will do you good to get away from clashing a little while when your mad.

I feel your pain.

My townhall 10 is completely maxed for all troops, defenses, etc.

The only thing left to upgrade is walls. I am currently doing level 10 walls at 3 million each.

The problem with this is it takes 30-50 raids to make 3 million gold for one dang brick.
Nobody seems to have anything anymore.
I easily go through 100-200k of nexts to find someone over 150k gold to raid.
Then if I only get half the base, I fall behind even more.

On top of that, it takes almost 4 hours to rebuild my spells, heroes and army.

When your at a stage like that, theres one thing i can recommend for you:

Use an app called quick thoughts. It gives you $2 per survey. There are plenty of surveys around (on the ipad version.) You might have to click for a survey several times however before one pops up, and the average survey takes about 15 min. However, the catch behind this is that the chance of qualifying and completing a survey is 20 or so %. (once you use it a lot, you'll know some tricks to qualify.) Use your time on this app rather than coc, because in 2-3 days, you can earn $10 easily. Transfer that to 1200 gems, and theres about 4 free mill gold.

Hope this helps :)

I'm sorry, but this is by no means a 'solution'. You're suggesting that because loot conditions are bad for TH10s, that they should instead pay supercell more money to level up their bases? At the same time, your 'solution' also means people would have to go through the trouble of completing surveys that as you say, they may not even get credit for. That is NOT a solution by any means. Actually, it seems like it would take a lot longer, and if you pay gems for resources you are hardly even playing the game anymore....

My advice is to take a slight step back from the game, look at the big picture, and play at a frequency that you are comfortable with.

Sleeping builders are okay if you don't have much time to play during the 2 days before he frees up. It's not the end of the world.

Not being able to max everything within the shortest possible time is also not the end of the world.

Remember, you play the game, the game doesn't play you.

The real bummer is that even once you find some energy to somehow get your base upgraded, all there is to do is push to see how far you can get. Then you'll realize the trophy system is rigged to force even more gem sales and is the most pointless system in any game system ever made.
Even flappy birds has a better reward when you get far than clash does.
Defense almost doesn't matter anyway with over powered gowiwi and super powered heros so just give up and go play the competition. They've got all the good clash has and almost none of the bad.

Thats not a solution your just saying buy the gold....and recommending they work for $8 per hour.

On topic, L8 walls are not that bad even L9 are pretty easy and quick, it's L10 and 11 that take forever plus you have to go high enough that you are a good target.

I would love L11 walls but would rather they stay were they are (maybe drop L10 to 2m) since attacking would be a pain in the ♥♥♥ if they were cheap enough everyone had L10 or 11.
