Ideas: Attacking, Hidden Telsa + Flower bed.

Hi guys and girls. i have a few suggestions/ideas on how to improve the game.

Attacking:

We all know when we use troops, some seem to go where you actually want them too, but then in some cases theres troops that when you deploy them, you're like why are you going over there?!! or even when you want to destroy something important or in need, they are just standing in the wrong place, getting destroyed by Defences. This might sound totally stupid or not but lets just see.

Now i think there could be and idea for Pointing out what you would like to attack first. Lets Say because 90% of Clash of Clans Players put there Town Hall in the middle surrounded by Defences, I myself would like to try and destroy that building first. So in this case if Supercell could make it that you select a troop that you want to use to destroy the Town Hall, and then instead of placing in an empty spot and attacking the surrounding before you get to the wall ( the non important Stuff ) You place that troops in the open area but, SELECTING which individual Building/Defences that you want that troop to try and attack first, going straight past surrounding and straight to the walls blocking troops, getting through that and attacking nothing else but the Town Hall itself. And the same goes for anything else. People that like to go for Coin and Elixir SELECT the Storages.


Next Idea is the Hidden Telsa And Bombs:

This something that some people might like and some won't but i think it should happen. With the Telsa and Bombs not being visible until you reach that area, the area in which these defences are are practically blank tiles. I think That have the idea of putting a FLOWER BED On the Same area, would be reasonable as it would pop out of the flower bed and do what its meant to do. As goes for Bombs.


Thanks.

Selecting a target defeats the purpose of the game. The whole point is for you to figure out where to drop troops so they do what you want. If you could select a target it makes the game too easy and predictable.

As for the flower bed. Wouldn't that just make it obvious to the attacker where your bombs/teslas are? The way it is now they could be in any blank space. I always think it's funny when someone builds a wall around a tesla because the whole point is for it to be hidden and when there is a wall around a blank 2x2 area it's pretty obvious what's there.

I dont think it defeats the purpose at all. And doesn't make the game too easy. Some people like to attack specific things. You might loose the fight by doing so but it wouldn't matter if all you want to do is take gold or money. You also said for is to drop the troops so they do what you want right? So I would like to drop the troop and get them to attack something that id prefer rather then something that I don't want. You still have to break through walls break through defenses if it blocked.

And as as for the hidden telsa and bombs. I think that players might think it's just a decoration just like what you said " it Could be any blank space, why can't it be just a decoration?

The point about it being funny that people build walls around a hidden telsa, that's it's meant to be hidden. But also I think people want to protect it .

If you want to attack certain buildings then use the specific troop. If you want to attack collectors and storages then use goblins. If you want to attack defense towers then use giants/balloons/hogs. The game has mechanics and AI, manually selecting a target defeats this purpose and would ruin the game.

I have to say I disagree with both your ideas. And here's why:

1st idea. The whole purpose of creating a tactic in 30 seconds is to figure out what troops to use, what order to drop the troops in, and where exactly to place the troops in order to achieve your goal. Once you've done this, you have 3 minutes for the attack. First of all, it would probably take more than 30 seconds to plan and set the attack, and second of all, it would be absolutely abused by everyone in the end due to certain capabilities of units.

2nd idea. Teslas and bombs are meant to be HIDDEN. Hence the fact that they shouldn't receive any "possible" visual update. That would remove the main idea that these are hidden defenses. Furthermore, you can only have a limited amount of flowerbeds in the shop. Knowing that TH7 has 2 Teslas, TH8 has 3 teslas and TH9 & TH10 have 4 teslas, + a limited number of bombs, it would make them completely un-hidden.

Of course you might say that players would have to guess which flowerbed is real and which is a hidden defense, but smart players would just avoid them all and voila.

Anyway,
Just my opinion,
Cheers,
B.

My 2 cents: The hidden tesla and the bomb/trap thing makes perfect sense, and should be implemented.

On the other hand, the "tell troop where to go" idea makes attacking too easy. You have to be ready for attacking strategies, and with this, even noobs would know how to attack well. Just take dragons. Dragons attacking all defenses? going straight for air defenses and things that can target them? Think about that for a bit. A little too OP.

Hey nzxt

I get that there a troops that go for favourite targets first and I'm not disagreeing with you. I just think that you should be able to do this if you wanted to, getting giants to go straight for collectors or storage sand like goblins go for buildings and defences as they are much faster.

And what do you think about the hidden telsa idea, stupid or is it alright.? Cause I think putting a decoration within a hidden telsa popping out, it's hidden in something not just the ground causing an "empty" space.

Sorry Mittzy, It wont be implemented. This would break the game in regards to troop AI.
Regards to tesla idea, no I don't like it. No need to change it, when it doesn't need changing

sorry to say this dude but this is an absolutely horrible idea. It will ruin the game. Second idea is ok though

disagree with 1st idea

it will be problematic
if they implement this everyone can reach masters/champions league pretty quickly
a TH7 can Mass Dragon a TH10 to push for the trophies, the players just have to focus on TH

also, like the above poster said, it kinda defeats the purpose of strategically placing troops, you could focus on a building and go bananas when you drop them, since they'd still go for that building.


with the 2nd idea, it's kinda ok, but not ok at the same time, what is the purpose of having a decoration on a HIDDEN tesla?

it also defeats the purpose of being HIDDEN.

I disagree with both ideas.

#1: the troop AI already does a good job of allowing you to target what you need to target, without making the game OP and making the strategy part of the game challenging, yet fair. If you have trouble in this regard, you need to learn new tactics, or practice more (or max out your offense for your town hall level).

#2: I feel this makes teslas and bombs overpowered. There's already enough mystery around where these things can be placed, to add flowe beds to them creates too much uncertainty that is unfair. The way the game works now is fine.

Okay everyone discard the first idea !! Haha I get it.

The second idea was my first idea and only idea. The hidden telsa will still be hidden. I'm just saying if you plant several flower boxs around your village, and no hidden telsa pop up out of it I think when you put one with it the attacker might be like didn't realize he had them because most time an empty space = hidden telsa. And bombs.

First idea: OP...everybody would always win and there'd be no strategy
second idea: kinda pointless

It's pointless to have Flower Beds on Hidden Teslas man. Don't you get it? It's like buying a Lexus and sticking a Lamborghini emblem on the hood. Everyone STILL KNOWS IT'S A LEXUS! ^^

:)

I will leave the first idea alone since you get the downside to it. Now onto the second idea!

I think everyone is misunderstanding thinking that you are saying the visual for a hidden tesla or bomb would be flowers or some decoration. What I read into this idea is that you can place the tesla or bombs anywhere on the map, just like now, but you have the OPTION to place decorations on top. Doing this would not limit them or make them obvious. Hell I could have a line of flowers just to make my enemies think there are traps there, then place the traps on the opposite side of the base. That being said though... this idea IS ruled out by supercell.
