The NEW one and only loot is good or bad thread

When will everyone understand that SC doesn't care about bad loot?

All they care about is more people starting the game..they could care less about how many quit.

New players bring in more revenue than the less than %1 top player gemmers.

SC's main concern is pleasing the majority stakeholders.

horrific update 1 - the loot system update last December. 10% of up to 4 million does not work. It has never worked. Your data may show more loot than ever before, but its because you now have a 'few' rich ppl living amongst 'MANY' poor ppl (aka the bases with 50k loot). You blind ppl with big shiny 400k bases, but the majority of bases are poorer than ever. Hence, NEXT, NEXT, NEXT...

15% of up to 2 million would help this situation a lot.

horrific update 2 - lix for walls. How could you not see this coming? Lix is gone. Can't find it. And when we do find a base with a lot of it, we can't get it, cuz we could only afford a BARCH attack.

Well done, SC. You are killing your game from your stubbornness and failure to admit that sometimes updates don't work the way you planned.

10 months of this awful loot system, and my desire to play this game is slipping away... I'd rather complain about it in this thread than actually PLAY the game. What's that say for the state of this once great game?

Not admitting you were wrong is a sign of weakness, not strength

And this is exactly what's happening.

I cannot believe the lack of response from SC. Before you quote it again, coat, i have seen the statement from Steve that loot is lower post updates and they are monitoring it. That no longer cuts it and is weeks old. There is plenty of data and its been way longer than the standard update blues. Hell, monitor mine if you want an example.

If the people that are getting loot outweigh those of us that arent, then just tell us that already!

It would be nice to have a statement but do not hold your breath(the forums and CoC value you). The reason why(past history) is that SC will address a problem via an update to the game rather than a statement. Also I do not think they comment due to possible backlash or misunderstandings.

P.S. I was not mocking you in your previous thread. Those were actual ideas I have shared in the past on the forums.

I do not find this, and similar arguments, to be reasonable for one simple reason. The majority of their updates are centered around higher town halls, like the loot update and the wall update.

Coat,

With all due respect, it is well-known that you support SC to a fault.

SC has continually screwed higher lvl players and long term players for what? Lava hounds?

They continue to pander to the masses without giving two shakes to us that have been around the block.

Heroes, walls, nothing about "eye mahd", time bug... the list goes on and on.

Your affinity towards SC doesn't mean anything to me. Not one iota.

One word: advertising. They have had their eyes on growing the playerbase ever since the Android release. True, updates are mostly targeted at higher level THs, but I do think there's a legitimate case to be made that more new players > existing ones in terms of future revenue.

At least one mod gets it.

Exactly, as I pointed out a few posts before. And what is the point in giving lower TH's new things to upgrade, when upgrading their current bases and TH's are their primary focus :rolleyes:
