Added time on upgrades?

Yes, read it and just trying to place the concern to some kind of level. I would be very surprised if the OP can always get online anyway when his builder is freeing so does it really matter that there is a time bug in the game? For example just before the builder gets free your parent/partner/friend calls and you talk for 10-30 minutes, spending valueble building time, right? Would you open your playing device if you were in a movie theater just because your builder is freeing in the middle of the movie or would simply skip the movie since your builder is freeing?

Personally I feel that the complaint on time bug is as silly as complaint on personal break.

It is a bug but Im sure the analysis on the amount of time required to fix and deploy the bug against the added benefit to the game result in the bug being given a low priority.

Are you serious? He's not the only one experiencing the time lag, you know? Try 40c x 100.000's. Of course, as long as SC is taking money/time out of ignorant customers, everying is fine.

Thats the problem, you assume that 100,000 of people will gem the extra time which is ludicrous. Id hazard a guess that less than 20% even realise there is an issue and of those only a handful will actually gem the time.

Waiting an extra 2 hours over a 5 day upgrade isnt that bad. Its not stopping OP playing the game.

I understand it is an issue but its been blown out of all proportion.

100,000 is a very conservative estimate compared to the millions playing this game.

Seriously, you are trying to argue that 100,000s of people have gemmed the extra time required to move their wall breakers from lvl4 to 5. And im not talkling about thiose who just staright out gemmed them. Im talkin specifically about people who said my troops should have upgraded 2 hours ago right I need to gem those extra 2 hours, thats 100 of thousands of people is it?

If you have any links to back up these facts Id be glad to see them? Otherwise this continues to be a non issue in my book.

I have often gemmed the last two hours of upgrades because the time bug meant they would finish after I had gone to bed and I am sure I am not unique... must be just sad I guess...

Exactly, I did this the whole time until I realized it's a hidden feature (against Apple's and Google's developer guidelines) that Supercell had incorporated in a sneaky fashion. Even the heroes' clock runs slower so you are tempted to gem their finishing time for raiding with your full army.

This topic has been beaten to the death, and nothing new gonna derive from arguing over it. It will be close by mod very soon.

SC's response on a previous reddit post:
> The likely cause is the intentional bug created by SuperCell to increase their profits.
This is incorrect. This bug is not intentional, but we are not able to fix it at this time. It would likely require an entire update cycle to address and we feel there are many more critical demands from players than fixing this particular issue.

The critical demands from players are to nerf heroes and hogs, and make pekka and useful again??? interesting
