Clash and Boom Beach

I'm sure many of you know that SC also has Boom Beach out there. I play both games, and like them both in their own right. I know that they are meant to be very different games, but I wondered what features of Boom you would like to see in Clash?

I like that in Boom you get to pick your fights, and can check out the enemy base before going for it. Not sure that would work in Clash in the same way, but something along those lines would be good, and I dont mean thirty seconds to decide to attack or not. It would remove the constant nexting people complain about.

I also like that you get rewarded with gems based on how much you play, instead of random gem box drops. If you want to encourage play then Boom has it right.

One of the best features of Boom that I would like in Clash is that you get to keep troops you don't lose in battle. I think it would go some way towards some of the loot issues in Clash if you get to keep troops that dont die in battle. The downside would be players living with full PEKKA (or other) armies, but you could introduce a limit on troop types within the army to get around that.

So, has anybody else got any thoughts on what they like in Boom that SC should consider bringing to Clash?

boom beach is rubbish i don't even need to attack to play i just live off collectors i don't think anything should be the same

Exactly.
10chars

Frankly the game would be broken if your surviving troops stayed in your camps in clash. Chief pat made a very good point in one of his videos about this. Just imagine if you are a max town hall 10 way down in trophies attacking town hall 4's and such with all max dragons. Sure yo would get a tiny bit of loot but none of your dragons will die so that raid costed zero elixer.

Oh sorry just noticed the part of how supercell would have to implement a way around that. Still I think it would not work well in the playing style of clash.

The loot system in boom beach is completely different but I really like some parts of it.
One point is that there are no shields. You dont get smashed the second you go offline and at least at th10 (there are 20 in boom beach) every attack covers the cost of the troops.
The bad thing is that you cant attack as long as you want.
I think shorter shield times would be much better. The biggest problem at the moment is loot getting dry if there are too many attackers and the worst bases stay in the queue.

In boom beach it i OK that you keep the units that survived because all units cost more or less the same so there are no expensive dragon armies like in coc. You also have an instant win after destroying the th an you get all loot from the th. In coc you would have to quit as soon as possible to avoid getting your troops damaged. In boom the match is over after the th anyway.

I too play Boom Beach but at a very slow pace.

The feature from Boom Beach I would like to see added to Clash is the little daily bonus.

I just hope there is never some kind of "Cross Over Event". It would be like Game of Thrones meets Gilligan's Island.

(not that that means I don't respect the game)

Lol, this is going in my sig.

This is sort of outta left field, but Hay Day, the other SC game, has a really cool player info screen that Clash could borrow from. For clash it could show things that aren't in the profile, like favorite troop, visits today, average nexts, cool info like that. Might even help players tighten up their game if it were the right info, like amount of gold spent nexting each session.

Nothing!!

I've been encouraged by the clan to join their Task Force. Unfortunately there were problems immediately. The first being I won the initial matches againt the computer. Yup. I won, gained the medals and was immediately matched with opponents much harder than me. I had to wait seemingly forever to be able to switch a match and then the opponent was even higher again. I got 'stuck' very early on. I'm still stuck now. It never seems to be like this in Clash. Sure I may get tough bases and I may get bases with no loot and there may be a lot of nexting..., but to sit looking at the screen knowing that are unable to atack any of the bases on offer?
You may get to keep your troops but you lose lots of available attacking power due to the fact you can only have one troop of each type on a boat.

The only difference I like is the operations side of it. But that maybe because I am so low leveled it doesnt make a bit of difference

I play both and Boom is far less tactical than Clash. The advent of the task force has improved Boom and invariably you meet players who play both. In terms of features there is nothing I can think of in Boom I would want in Clash although in the other direction a Global chat in Boom would be nice for recruiting and the odd poke a troll visit :cool:

Boom Beach is rotten compared to Clash.At least Clash has some fair matchmaking. Boom Beach is rubbish.Face it. You wanna attack a HQ 11when you've only got HQ9?You don't always get the same Town Hall in Clash but at least you get most of them the same.VP matchmaking is RUBBISH.I would like most CLASH features in Boom Beach but NO to BB features in CoC.Want to see a mod's view on this.
