I don't see a problem with PBT or village Gaurd, anymore... Pls read

Everyone is going to get a personal break from time to time, if you play 3 or so a day, but if you log off often and defend attacks and don't do so well, you get shielded and thus it restarts the timer.
where are people having problems, THs out, poorly defended bases, rushed THs, and being in the wrong league!
did you trophy drop, is no one able to attack you and give you a shield, well then you have to sit thru penalty of the 6/15/6/15/6/15 rule or the mercy rule...
are you down in the wrong league and others are just attacking you to trophy drop, are THs 2 levels lower then you only doing weak attacks on your collectors, then you get free Village Guard, that's another penalty as I see it, if your offline, and your constantly getting village Gaurd, this counts as your online play, attacks are too weak against you, thus your in the wrong league, your not gonna get a shield, your picking on weaker opponents, thus you get penalized! Your PBT keeps extending 15 minutes when you keep getting weak attacks, chewing into your online play time! Maybe you should defends your base better, as in pull in the TH, and maybe you should increase your trophies, your abusing the system still, as Supercell saw everyone abusing the system with THs out in the first place!

The problem is people are beeing forced to log off, and arnt getting attacked because they dont have loot. This makes them get kicked all often or forces them to stay offline for 30min every 3 hours, wich imo is to much

If you were in the right league you would be attacked for a shield weather you have loot or not, people attack for trophies too

if you mean you should push so high while FARMING that you get attacked by pushers? sorry thats just wrong

No that's fair, they intend for you to be attacked, not just you to attack and farm and sit back and never be attacked

There is a lot of good loot also in higher leagues to farm, you just can't get away with barching off the weak anymore and leaving your TH out and staying in low leagues to also farm off the weak

I belive th's shouldnt give free shields, im ok with that, every farmer should also be open to get fully attacked atleast once, but i dont see why SC is forcing you to get attacked, if a player has good loot to offer he will get attacked within a few min, if he doesnt there is no need for him to get attacked and he should be able to get online within a few min again.

I believe they are making the game 'fair' as they said many times in the update sneak peeks

If you have good loot and aren't getting attacked, there's a problem, your hiding in a lower league and not getting attacked because everyone in your league is too weak to attack you! Which is not fair, your picking on them, stealing thier resources, and not allowing them to fight back, so you get penalized for being a trophy dropping farmer of the weak!

seeing as the update also increased the chances of finding somone with the same th level as you and also decreased the loot gained from attacking a th one lower then you makes what your saying about attacking somone weakers false. Its so hard even finding somone 2 ths lower, and i belive attacking 1 th lower is totaly acceptable.

Listen, As a war leader you should always be online, donate troops, I don't want to go to defense to get a shield just to be able help my clanmates. I was in champion 2, then master league, then crystal, then gold and now I'm in silver league. I don't want to be forced to push trophies, I'll quit the game but I don't push. In champion league you should always use 5 spells and use heavy army to attack, but with current system you can't afford your attack cost. how you upgrade defenses, 275 level 11 walls without resources? Super Sell ruind this game.

If supercell is dead set on people being in a certain townhall range then why not give us some guidelines on exactly where they want us. I'm in master III as a midlevel/max th10. I would think that's plenty high to be able to play the game normal. Not only be able to get off one attack and then be off the game the rest of the day. No one is attacking me while offline. If you say that's because, 1. I'm not in the correct league, how exactly as I supposed to proceed to the correct league if I keep being kicked? I am able to do one attack sometimes before being kicked off. At best I gain about 30 trophies or so. How long will it take me to get into the correct league before supercell allows me to play normally.

Oddly enough, I was get attacked with the very same base and league I have/am in right now prior to the update. I would get strong attacks against me which either resulted in a shield/win/or loss. However, after the update I don't even get attacked.

Yea that's odd, so far in our family we have four players, and I was the only one having a problem til I increased my trophies to at least back to crystal after I trophy dropped to hit dead bases, which I didn't make much anyhow, so far I still haven't got hit and got a shield at all, but getting hit more often, I've been hit by about 30 trophy droppers, and only 2 weak attackers since the update, and no shield, but my account is the only one having an issue in my fam, I figure I've got to go back to champions, but it's also odd I'm offline a lot, and upwards of 18 hours can go by before I'm attacked, then I'm attacked back to back for a straight hour 5x by trophy droppers, then not a single attack for 18 hours again, not shielded, and offline ??? Bug, am I not being put in the rotation at all, and I have mad amounts of dark E in my storage

I'm thinking it's a rotation problem as well. I had 120k dark at the time of the release and almost max gold and elixir. I was getting attacked quite normally within master III and master II quite regularly prior to the release. When I first got kicked after the release I figured I would get quite a bit stolen. I still had the same base active so usually the most people get is around 300k of each and 3k dark. However, when I was able to log back in I wasn't even attacked. This has persisted since the update. I've only been attacked with a real attack maybe twice post update.

Part of the reason for this post was to help people to understand the village guard and PBT if your possibly down in a low league, that isn't going to be very active to thier respective TH level, and how the extension from village Gaurd may be effecting them while even offline, it's not a bug, it's a good system
but I also was hoping to hear from others that were in higher tiers and not even getting attacked anymore, that to me would be a bug, to go hours without a shield, with a lot of loot, in a higher league, and to not be attacked at all or in tiny busts maybe once a day, not even to get a shield, seems like a bug were we are not even put in the rotation

Yeah, I think there is definitely a lot of misunderstanding of the personal break/village guard going around. However, even if that part works perfectly then we should still be attacked while offline. From what I've seen that's not really happening. As I've tried to put out there on many other posts so people don't feel like they are alone. Since no guideline was given on which league we should be in. I still contend Master league should be high enough. I was getting attacked prior to the update I would still like to be attacked post update. I guess if the personal break was how it used to be I wouldn't mind not being attack but since it resets the personal break to be attacked post update I'd like to be attacked when I'm offline lol.

It makes me think all the hard core players, active attackers are jumping ship and dropping trophies, so we're not getting attacked? I've been hit by soooo many trophies droppers just in the last two hours, I'm back to crystal 1 and on my mission to go back to masters soon, then hopefully back to champions, I've been only legitimately attacked 4x now since the update, all hailing no shield... I'll let ya know how champions is when I get back there

Totally agree, we want to be attacked now for a reset, so where are the attackers, if the jumped champions and below anyhow, they are only mainly facing the same TH lvls as is in the higher leagues, so why go down below masters?

Truthfully it's a joke why should you be able to tell us how long to play your game especially when most have probably spent more on this game than any ps or Xbox game. Utter ♥♥♥♥. Peace out

I kind of agree with those sentiments. It's a hard balance between making everyone happy in any game. I'm hoping they figure out it's not working for a lot of the clashers and they modify/fix the system. If anything, extending the personal break past 3 hours would allow people to feel like they aren't being told what to do in a game. People really loved the ability to play how they saw fit prior to the update.

I think consecutively playing for 3 hours is a bit much, but cumulatively, we aren't really over playing, and gave chances to be attacked, whether we were or not, it's those that run bots they are also trying to punish, so I think consecutive 3 hours, you need to take a break, if you cumulatively play for 3 days before you hit the break, and in all that time weren't attacked... Thats not fair

Yeah, I can see that. But 3 hours isn't really that long. Especially when looting. I used to hit the personal break when it used to be 6 hours. I would boost my barracks and nonstop attack. I never cared about getting kicked off because I would immediately be attacked which then let me log back in.

See you said 'immediately' and that's not happening to a lot of us after the update, as were all stuck in PBT hell lmbo ;)

I think the biggest problem with the PBT and this update in general, is the developers basically telling everyone how to play and when to play. This is a game that's supposed to be played for enjoyment. As such, we should be able to play it how we want, when we want. Multiple forced breaks because of a cumulative timer means that I can't play when I want how I want. Today is Sunday and our regular war attack day. I will sit on my couch with my iPad running CoC all day watching attacks, donating, talking strategy, talking football, talking nonsense with my clan mates. F U for telling me that I've been playing too long and need a break. And double F U for doing that again 15 minutes later. And a triple F U for doing it a third time. I would run into this prior to the update and log off for a bit, not a problem. That wasn't a problem because it would happen after the 6 hours and it's actually a good reminder to me that I have spent too much time on the game, it is time for a break.

Beyond the forced breaks telling us when we can play, the elimination of easy shields and farming has changed the entire dynamic of the game for a lot of people. SuperCell basically forced everyone to play it a certain way, rather than giving them the option of how they want to play the game.

For me, I haven't really changed anything about the way I play. I've been in Masters I as a TH10 with max D, L26 heroes, and simply grinding through the walls and updating 1 hero a week after war. I use an army mix of giants, wiz, healers, archers and gobs with heal and rage. I search out the targets I can 1 to 2 star and get my loot and loot bonus. This hasn't changed since the update with the exception that I'm now in Champion III and have hit my highest trophy at 3325. Some of that has been others trophy dropping on me, some is me continuing to win my raids. I'm still just grinding walls, so I'm always going to be below 3M in gold and elixir. Because my base is stout, I don't get attacked. Because I don't get attacked, I never have a shield and this ♥♥♥♥♥♥ed personal break timer is always running on me.

I've been playing this game for 2 1/2 years and I do not want the game telling me when I can play or can't. I've spent $200 on gems to fix my own mistakes when I rushed my base. I've read these forums since I started playing, but I've never had a reason to post until this update. I also have never left a rating on an app, but I left a 1 star rating due to this PBT. I see that as of right now, there are 839,733 people that have done the same. I wonder how many of those have come in the past 3 days...

Your PBT keeps extending 15 minutes when you keep getting weak attacks, chewing into your online play time! Maybe you should defends your base better, as in pull in the TH, and maybe you should increase your trophies, your abusing the system still, as Supercell saw everyone abusing the system with THs out in the first place!

I buy gems, and I don't have a problem with this feature, neither does my family, nor my clan, I think the people complaining don't fully understand how the new system works

It's working exactly as it's intended, and I understand it 100%. That's the problem. It's a horrible system!

I'm complaining because I just received another 'Break extended' because no one is attacking me. I have a good base and I'm in the proper league...TH10 with max D, currently in Champion III and I was just attacked by a trophy drop that increased my trophies to an all time high of 3348. I'm working well within the system, and I'm still really f'ing irritated.

Do you understand that people do not like an app telling them whether or not they can play it when they want to play it???

I've tested champ III and champ II since the release. Obviously supercell is saying we should be higher than that. I'm going to climb up higher and see if I'm attacked more because in champ III and II I'm not attacked.

Yeah, I'm just going to keep on keeping on. Just really f'ing irritating when I just logged in and received the notification within 1 minute of being back online. I had the 15 minute VG, and logged in on minute 16. So, I wait the next 6 minutes before I get back again, and will be booted after 15 minutes. Again...FU SuperCell for telling me when I can play my game!!!!!

Actually 30 minutes because I'm in Champion....Such a stupid system that needs to be removed IMMEDIATELY!!!!!

Supercell has crossed the line. In no way, shape, form, or fashion should they be telling me ( or anyone else ) how long or when we can play. I get the 6 hour break forced logoff so marathon gamers can be attacked. I don't mind a 3 hour break forced logoff. But, the current system using cumulative time is effin sporked. I've been in and out of the game numerous times today. No session more than 30mins or so. My offline time is far greater. Yet, now that I actually have time to play I'm in forced personal break Hell. And it keeps forcing me to logoff.

Why the H*ll should I or anyone else be punished for not being attacked? I have trophies and I have resources available. I also happen to have a finely tuned base. No one wants to attack me and I get punished?

The current system is freaking broken. Fix it.

The idea that people should be in a specific league is ludicrous. If this was the case, SC would make it so that u can attack anyone ur th lvl or 1 below, regardless of league. The game is already set up to pick on lower guys, how is it any different being in a lower league? This update makes it harder to get and keep resources, thus making people want to spend $ to progress. The PBT makes no sense at all as it makes people not attack based on other persons actions. I agree that they should dictate how and when we play and I think SC is just trying to squeeze $ out of people.

Yea I didnt hit my first break until 60 hours after update, so in 60 hours, I was never attacked for a shield, while offline 57 hours, I think this cumulative thing needs to go, maybe a 6 hour cumulative, and a 3 hour consecutive, or just rid of the cumulative altogether... But I do think if it's here to stay, some adjustments should be in place, a timer would be nice to know when our times about up, and I'm all for the mercy rule if not a single player hits attack on you, but let's do something else with the 6/15/6/15/6/15... Maybe 10/15/10 then reset?
