Yeah, it isn't the end.

I think people need to reevaluate what the term 'farming' means in CoC.

I already beat you to it on the idea.
This update is effectively Clash of Clans 2: Back with a Vengeance.
(can even search for it)

I can't vote on this poll. Title is too fictional from what I understand. There isn't an anti-farming update that I can see, neither past or present.

Are you guys aware that you can easily compensate for the resources you may lose since attacking in multiplayer doesn't completely remove your shield? Seriously, most of you complain just because you think the game got a little too hard.

Q: What if my resources get looted since I can't leave my TH outside anymore?
A: You can raid other people and easily regain the resources you lost for only the cost of 3-7 hours of shield.
A: Your attacker's advantage is also your advantage when you're the one attacking! You can use this feature to loot villages with awesome resources since they aren't protected by TH snipers anymore.

Q: What if a TH10/TH11 player attacks me? I can't defend that easily.
A: If you're TH9 and above, you either have decent enough defenses to fend them off, or if a TH10 can 3-star you, it won't make a difference with a TH11 player, anyway.
A: If you're TH8 and below, don't forget that loot penalty means they'll be getting significantly less loot from you. Chances are, most TH11 players will pass you by.

If my answers still do not make you rest easy with the shield update, let me know your woes and I'll assure you otherwise.

We will see who is going to wear the tinfoil hat at the end. We will see how this really affects gameplay. If it doesn't or improves it we will tip our tinfoil hats to you. I hope people do not leave clash of clans because they made the game impossible to upgrade items. If this happens , Than you will be wearing the tinfoil hat. We will see how the tsunami of an update transgresses. We will talk a month after the update. I hope it does improve gameplay for our farmers.

I hope your comment does put people at ease and the game balances itself nicely. But hear me, we are getting sick and tired of the updates that do not benefit the masses. I believe they pushed too much on this update. They should have made a series of baby step and implemented the changes in steps.

Step one - Increase town hall loot
Step two - Sniping a town hall no longer gives you shield
Step three- get sheild with 30% destruction of base
Step four - .......

This way people would have slowly adapted to the changes. Now Clans are going to have to change, bases are going to have to change. It is a major restructuring of clash of clans.

I agree with you on this prosper. It take the heart out of the game. Now it'll be harder to collect resources because you have to basically get all your loot stolen to get a shield. This will decrease popularity. I'm sorry SuperCell but this new shield is just downright terrible.

How on earth could you classify this update as anti-farming with all the buffs farmers get?

Farmers get more loot per raid, higher league bonuses, and less nexting.

Probably you understand the term farming differently. My definition for farmer is someone who attacks a lot to max his base fast.

With that definition this update is very pro-farming.

This is most definitely not an anti-farming update. What this is: A way to make it so you can't ruin the economy of Clash of Clans. This does means you can't use your TH outside, however, you still have the chance to get all of your resources and then some back even on shield, which means you aren't really losing anything. Also, they changed it from 1/2 the army to 1/3, AND they also increased loot bonuses, which as long as you 50% a base, you should be fine and receive 80% of the league bonus. Sure, it'll mean you will have to use good attacks in HIGHER leagues, but lower leagues will still have all of those dead bases, where you can still use farming strategies... Think about it... Also, you can attack while using your village guard. If you don't see the point at how those help farmers, then I don't know how to make this update make sense. I also forgot to mention in their latest recap; they also stated, "Trap cost, and x-bow costs to re-arm have been reduced by 70%", effectively making it a lot cheaper to re-arm traps, even if you were three starred.

Not going to work as they say if 50% of the troops are not deployed you will not get the shield. There is no way around becoming a farmer any-more.

Now when you get a precious troop such as a golum or drag in your cc for a war. Using a troll base to get a shield during the war to secure your cc troops will just make it harder for our clan wars. Our team will keep replenishing these troops and just give up.

With this new update I believe they took the heart out of the game. Its the people that made the game evolve to be one of the best interactive games out there.

I heard no one complaining about farming other than Supercell. Huge mistake guys. Hold off on the update and do some market research before you throw it out there. Mark my word. At least 25 million players are farmers if not more. You will not only lose them but other players as well. Folks get out your Next gen systems. It is time for a change.

First off farming isn't dead. Yes you have to attack just like everyone else and you have to take attacks. This is awesome for the game. Look at the description of the game.

"AN EPIC STRATEGY GAME
Answer the call of the mustache! Join the international fray that is Clash of Clans. Customize your village, build an army and crush your opponents. Like using friendship to strike fear into your enemies? Join a Clan, or establish a Clashing legacy by creating your own. The choice is yours in this millions-strong community of Barbarians. Download for free and Clash on, Chief!"

What part of that says put your townhall outside and never defend?

I personally love every part of this update so far. If you are a farmer you can still work 50% on barch pretty easy.

Lol, They aren't taking the heart out of the game but they are addressing us to put that heart in the middle of the base! Just saying what you feel is easy but taking cumulative decision is what which takes time, SC just did something like that and fixed so many problems that dozens of players were facing! Still if you care for " Anti Farm Update" then you are just neglecting those benefits you will get after this update! Have a broad mind & look at the whole picture!
