Very bad update !!! Especially for clan wars !!!
Hello,
With this update, it is now impossible to compete based on skills !!! The one who have the strongest dark troop will succeed !!!
This is due to global increase of around 4000 hitpoints on 40 buildings with this winter update.
I am TH9 but as till now it was quite impossible to improve dark troops (just one drill from TH8, impossible to steal as there is only one storage, usually very well protected, elixir to share with Heros updates and dark troop updates very expensive), I really suffer this update !!!
I have strong pink troops (level 3 dragons, level 3 pekkas). They are all maximized, including spells. Thanks to good tactic I was able to get 3 stars on TH8 and 2 stars on TH9 almost all the time.
Now, due to this 4000 hitpoints increase on 40 buildings, it is quite impossible to get 3 stars on TH8 with those troops...
In war, we have lost a lot of efficiency due to this update !!! We can now bring 2 stars on almost all villages... Same as our opponents even if we are able to destroy 90% of their villages and if they can only destroy 60% of ours. So finally, we do not know why we will lose or why we will win... It is just a question of luck now !!!
Note that we can have a average score of 2.0 stars with 90% destruction. If our opponent has reach 2.1 stars average, even with 60% destruction, he will win the clan war... Do you believe it ? Superscell did it !!!
This game is going in the wrong way !!! It is nonsense...
Moreover, if your opponents is a few month older than you in the game, he will have already upgraded his dark troops... If so, he will have level 4 golems and level 2 witches, level 2 lava dog and you can be sure that you have lost before entering the war...
That is so so bad !!!
Before this update, with strong pink troops, you was able to take your chance against the ones who had strong dark troops... Now, with this update, Supercell has created so big differences between players that boundaries now exist between clan with high level and clan with low level dark troops... The weakest ones will never be able to cross these boundaries and beat the strongest, even with better team spirit, better organization of better strategy !!! It is a pity...
I am quite sure that clan wars will lose interest everywhere...
BR,
Fully Maxed TH8 with nothing to do
I have a ton of elixer and nothing to spend it on. I was gonna upgrade my walls but...they took it away. Thanks Supercell. It was nice being able to upgrade the walls with both gold and elixer.
REDUCE Pumps upgrade times
The new level 12 drills are awesome and something we've suggested for i don't know how many months...and you turned in down or ruled it out for the time being. Then finally decided to listen to us and implement it in the game....so how about reducing the build time since it's something you added because you finally acknowledge there is a loot problem.
I don't see many people upgrading their pumps as I've been raiding for the past week since the update came out. I believe one of the reasons is the absurd 5 day build time you have on it. When I could use my builder for something else like defense upgrades...
Plain and simple if this is your fix to the loot problem then it should be something that can be done immediately or take 24 hours to upgrade.
FYI I don't see any improvement in loot yet...
Love it, but a few things I didn't like...
Awesome update for the most part, I especially loved the Multiple Base Layout Editor and that the Dark Elixir Drill is now available at TH7
However, I really don't understand why you can no longer upgrade level 8 and under walls wills elixir.
Also, the Level 7 giant upgrade is pointless... High Level Players use golems as a tank troop so the new giants are hardly being used.
Overall it was a Fantastic Update!
