Random Revenge

Dear Supercell,

It would be nice if we have random revenge button. The revenge system will automatically select a random player in your revenge list. Of course it will not select those online or shielded ones as per usual.

Guys, please vote if this is useful feature to add! Thanks!

Thanks,

This is for lazy people who don't wanna check if anyone can be revenged themselves.

Perhaps this is the only solution to help us efficiently find applicable targets. Check your revenge list now. How long did it take you to find someone you can attack?

This idea is useless to me. (note what is listed in red in my signiture)

Proper and meaningful revenge attacks cannot be random like that. Most bases have a shield up 90-95% of the time, and even then, when thier available loot isn't always worth it to spend the the time and opportunity on. You only get one shot at a revenge attack, and days, maybe even a week or more, before things line up to make it worth it to attack. Personal record for the longest wait has been about 14 days. They start falling off the defence log after 12-13 days, so lucked out on catching that one. :cool:

From personal experience, this would be an unused feature for me.

As you have mentioned, That's the reason why we need this feature. The rate of available targets in your revenge list is way too low. The main benefit of Revenge is not resources at all! The mere fact that the players who have attacked you can simply have used it before going offline. It's the Trophy points!

This will be beneficial if you are gathering points.

I actually use it to help reclaim stolen Dark Elixir, which has helped quite a bit I might add.

Also, I've been looking into the issue of this, and many other common complaints. After awhile of repeating common fix ideas, which wouldn't have worked as well as planned, I've since gotten more progress towards figuring out what could fix this, and several other problems as well...

Unfortunately.. :( fixing the perception and feel of being on the defence side of things is going to be like pulling teeth. The gameplay side of being raided is so badly done and managed, players rarely care to tolerate it, and use counter intuitive means of metagaming to get around those problems; which causes a cascade of problems and issues across several aspects of the game, both in obvious and subtle ways.

In respects to revenge attacks, if people where less put off by being raided, to the point of not hidding behind a shield generated via a 'farming base' just to have an attempt to have fun and make some meaningful progress in-game, then more bases would be available to attack back on. (And no, don't make ideas to 'outlaw' having a Town Hall outside the walls. It won't end well for you here in the forum, trust me.)

So until defence problems are addressed, revenge is going to be stuck being being a rarely used feature, if not also a sad joke.

The focus here is we are trying to improve the current gameplay feature. The revenge system is fine. It only needs to improve how can we efficiently select the available targets. The issue here is not being lazy, it's difficult to find available target! Instead of trying, spamming, clicking all the revenge buttons, in all your list, much better if the system can do this for us randomly.

There isn't much that can be done to the revenge feature. Part of the reason for requiring a click is risk of losing your Shield if they are attackable.

Unfortunately, people have to fill in thier own blanks as to why an indicator or anything close to it is ruled out, and deleted on sight (amoung other ruled out ideas)

Anyway, I have made a few suggestions on the revenge attack feature (recent ones, ignore the very old newbie one), that gets around some of the other issues with it. Not much progress was made on them, due to forum spam and seeming lack of interest on different methods that could be used.
