I suppose their target audience with this business plan model is billionaires or morons with cash from mommy and daddy.

In a dev interview ages back, this is the gist of what they said. Im not saying its right, or that they havent had to alter that view slightly over time, but that was the original plan.

I don't think the inactive bases are gone, I think they are getting picked off by the new bots and auto-nexters.

the facts are simple, clashers are using there loot to build walls and little else. Which means you need a more expensive army to breach those walls. We all know that, the best defence is no loot in the base- so build more walls....

with the inactive accounts gone (haven't seen one since the patch/upgrade) a major source of loot for upgrades is gone.

eventually the loot will return as walls max out, but you can't breach those maxed walls with barbs and archers, you need more expensive troops, meaning your return on each raid is less.

The solution is simple, make a huge loot bonus for 3 starring a base- perhaps doubling or tripling the loot taken, a little less for 2 star, and nothing for a single star (bite me town hall snipers). This would allow clashers to go into battle with full armies, instead of the boring old barch.

This is will keep us clashing, even with lower loot in the base.

I don't even understand why they want to bury those inactives so far back. Ain't our fault they quit. Maybe they quit because they :
A: Lost interest because of the ridiculous amount of time needed to complete an upgrade under this new loot system

or

B: Were not progressing anywhere

I beleive it it would show how many players have quit, because of the two reasons above, supercell doesn't want that..

Recently my clan has had a few people join that knew each other from old disbanded clans, all with a similar play style. They hang around in masters, have medium th10s, attack between once and 5 times a day, using whatever troop comps amuse them. Obviously they get some loot, but not enough to hammer out max level upgrades constantly, and if theres something they want enough, they will gem it.
These are the people playing the game as SC imagined. Its why they introduced leagues and bonus, to attempt to make players more competative and stay in 🏆 ranges appropriate to level. We know that its not the fastest way to progress, just as we know the current loot economy isnt sufficient to support intensive farming.
But when they analyse/monitor the loot for months on end, they will probably find it is perfectly adequate for what they intended.

Why don't they just stuff louds more loot in that th and ditch the free shield for 1 star, problem fixed, there is plenty of loot to get you just need to have the time to find it fast enough it takes minutes before a farming th outside gets taken out, imo thats the biggest problem with the loot system

I don't get why so many TH8 are giving a speech as is he is representing every farmer that loot is so good, getting 200k elixir per raid bla bla bla....Noob TH8, I'm here to tell you, upgrade your TH to 10 otherwise 9. And post your atk log everyday to prove that you can find minimum 200k to 300k elixir in your every raid. I used to have 300k elixir almost every raid when i was in TH8, and my elixir is almost full all the time during TH8, that said. I am not getting enough elixir and in fact, i have maxed almost all my DE troops but my elixir troops is stopped ever since the lava update. Once again, don't represent and criticize everyone here that complains about bad loot, because you are just a noob TH8. And remember, get your TH to 9 or 10 and show us your atk log if you want to challenge me.

I agree completely. The loot was bad, now its worse it what i'm saying.

Of course a complete solution would be to the benefit of everyone, but are we going to get one?

The ONLY way anything will change is if income drops.

Exactly, they'll only change the game when we all quit buying gems.

You boys have fun boosting your barracks and barching tons of ♥♥♥♥ bases. I will pass on that.

100% with you man, i'm in crystal 1 same deal :(
