BRILLIANT! :D

No really, people don't understand, or don't consider, that they can stop playing early. The details of that are in the sneak peek post. The purpose of the Personal Break timer is to get people off line for just a bit of time so it is fair for others to attack, just like they are attacking others. You don't have to stay on for a solid 3 hours. You can stop sooner, and after a realisticly short time (idk off hand what that is) the 3 hour limit will be reset.

1.Last day, as all we know, th snipe no more gives shield was frustrating but thought it will be something good to see today, now it's something good but really? I mean VG gives only 15 mins to be prepared again? As for farmers, they barch, it takes 20 mins at least to cook 200+ army with barch. Now if th gets sniped, 15 mins VG is given, what about other 5 minutes huh? It would be great if these 15 mins can be increased by at least 5 more so than each & everyone get the fair chance (here farmers need fair chance).
2. What is about PBT? If not get attacked then 18 mins to wait? Why? Too much longer in every 3 hours. This update seems pretty cool for Top players but for causal players, it may need some changes.

You have to stay offline for up to around 10 minutes I think it currently is for it to reset now. If you close the game and come back it doesn't reset the kick off. The kick off was put in place to stop players staying on 24hrs. Back when Jorge Yao was #1 he never logged off and as a result was never attacked. They implented the 8hr kick off the next update which was later reduced to 6hrs and now it seems it's going to 3hrs with an extendable village guard.

No where does it say that the new 3 hour break will reset by logging off. Maybe it does, but we do not know that to be true.

It says "cumulative" not consecutive game time. That means that you are adding time any time you are in the game. Logging off would not reset a cumulative time.

Nope loops. It won't be paused at least this info wasn't released.

also, not sure if it can be done tomorrow but is it at all possible to have a second mod post below anoushka's linking to any mod / staff comment in the thread. It would be really helpful to pick out any responses. Kinda like a FAQ for each thread. Normally threads are this long in the update.... Not each individual part!

This would be extremely helpful :thumbsup:

The first two sneak peeks can both be directly correlated with more revenue going to SC.. No snipes means less "free loot" that they're providing, and the second is just getting gem greedy. I don't play the game for 6 hrs straight but I do find myself on there for a long time while watching/ preparing for war. This is beginning to get ridiculous.
Hopefully the rest of the sneaks are better for the players themselves than the first two have been.
Disappointed with SC

The reason they make updates is to increase revenue.

i can't wait for the update after the update to fix the update!

My my biggest concern for any update is that they will cram too much stuff into the game. Nothing wrong with simple.

This is a game,not a lifestyle. What do they expect from us. From what ive seen so far its been a update completely unfair for people who dont have the money or time for this game,but still love the game dearly and try to get on everyday. For me,this has so far really made things harder,it feels like a terrible experience is coming.3hrs long? Really? I cant even load 2full army comps(like you Developers want us to) within 3hrs and the only way to get yourself from being forced off is by adding time on from the personal sheild? Completely ridiculous. I love this game and have played it for 2years and im afraid that i wont be able to compete or even show my skill off in this game anymore. I dont hear anyone that likes whats to come right now(by majority) and if nothing comes out to balance this. It will be the end of a great game. You will truly be making a mistake if this keeps up. Im still hoping for some good news to come out of this,because right now. The farmers and the players who dont spend hardly any money on this game are getting screwed over badly right now. I dont know if anyone agrees with what i said,but that is truly how i feel right now and im scared its going to get even worse,for the game we all loved is completely changing.

oops... Forgot to add game specialist comment to the last part! Shame on me!

Boosting back to back rarely affects me. But occasionally if I have the time I will. So I was just curious.

thx for answering Saleh :)
