The game itself isn't dying but it sounds like some people's interest is. That is normal with any game. Lose some players then gain some new players. I can see at some point it's popularity will fade but I don't see this game shutting down any time soon.
The funny thing with this game is, if people leave, it leaves more loot for the rest of us. Thus making you want to get the loot, causing more people to join, and reinvigorating the game until people want to quite again. It doesn't die, it just goes through cycles.
well it was diagnosed with cancer,but doctors said there is still hope
My girlfriend has cancer so that's not exactly funny...Quote:

Condolences to your girlfriend but no one likes that guy who takes something completely out of context and makes it about themselvesQuote:

There are a lot of long time players getting bored. To some extend this is because they have been playing the game for such a long time and this is simply the way things go. No game I know has lasted so many hours as Clash of Clans.
On the other hand you can see that the big boom is over, simply because of lack of new stuff and there are still a lot of problems that need to get fixed:
.) Trophy pushing is broken noch only because of clouds and nexting (which is the reason I will never even try it seriously), but also loot gets worse the higher you get up.
.) High players have no chance to get in any clan that does not completely suck, if they are not really good at war, because if they cant beat their suggested opponent, they hurt the clan a lot, but it should be different.
.) Clan wars are nice, but we need to get a league
.) The whole "max everything before you upgrade" mentality is really hurting the gun of the game. Many players get bored at high th8 or mid th9 and stop farming, because the dont get so see new content. There is content, but they are not allowed to get it without the disadvantages of rushing. Balancing was good until th7 where the cost of the th is high enough so you are strong enough the time you can afford it (without gemming). At th8 and above (especially th10) this does not work any more.
.) Loot at th10 still is worse than at th9, especially in the beginning and if you are not so good at attacking to beat the higher th9s with a cheap army. Bad loot at th10 before getting all the th10 upgrades is what kills the fun for most players. In my opinion the whole loot penalty system was bad and should have been solved in a different way like increasing mine production, storage capacity and upgrade costs so much. Until th8 there is no need for a loot penalty and until th8 the balancing was good. You can clearly see that th9 and th10 was added afterwards and the loot balancing is simply not good any more.
.) In clan wars it is more about ♥♥♥♥♥ing the matchmaking and not building certain defenses on purpose just to get easier opponents. Clan wars should be more about attacking skills, good planning (who attacks which base), and base design and not about using instrumented bases.
.) Bunnies. A lot of fluffy bunnies eating all the carrots in my warbase
