CPR for farming please-

I'm a th10 player, and I've been playing for 3 years. We were all excited about the update, many things were said and what we fear became real. Farming is dead, no matter which th you have, you are stucked unless you buy your way up.

Supercell said that we were not playing the way they wanted us to, they said people are attacking only th to get ti major leagues... And its a lie, because when you get to cristal 1 there are no th outside the walls, you have to work your way up.

So... Why was so wrong to play like that? Farmers were in lower leagues, and never crossed path with competitive players, supercell made tons of money and players were happy... What else they can possibly want?

the reality is we are all stuck, its impossible to get the resources we need to upgrade defenses unless we use gems... You don't wanted us to play, you just want us to pay our way up and that isn't play.

please:

-restore th shield.

- 3 hours allowed to play is killing clan activity, people are not getting in to talk or donate because they are losing playing time, if we have 10 hours shield we dont attack, we use that time to collect resources.

- listen to feedback, for 1 happy player there are 20 that are not.

- the only happy players are the ones that use gems to be at the top and upgrade everything... And according to your own stadistics, they are like 20% of all players... Aren't you at least worry that 80% of players unhappy with your game?

too many people are saying that the game was already perfect, and you ruined it with this upgrade.
For me, there is no more fun in playing, and I feel ripped off.

Hey bro th snipers were even in champions u never heard of the clan savage seven they th sniped the whole way to champs and being th-7 and i completely agree with the personal break system u said but they did good by nerfing th snipers so tht the game will be more competetive

I recently worked my way up to champion, i dont know how they manage to find th out to snippe, because from cristal 1 to champion I may have found 1 or 2, and that is not enough. You have to admit that taking away th snipping affects more casual/farming players that trophy pushers.

... And I'm one of the few "sisters" in COC ;)

I don't normally snipe th's, but I also search for abandoned bases with full collectors and mines. The new algorithm prevents me from accumulating loot to upgrade my troops, defenses and walls. I am spending more on troops than I gain in elixer and dark elixer. At this point I will never be able to upgrade my heroes or any more troops. VERY FRUSTRATED and thinking about quitting the game after 2 1/2 years.

While I don't like farming food chain gone, I do find farming gold and DE easy so far. I'm TH9 lvl 103. Was on Gold 2 when update came, now on Master 3. Quite easy to find rich TH9 base, and I target the TH and 2 gold storage, usually get 250k + loot bonus. For DE I target DE storage and then TH if possible. My troop is already quite strong though for a TH9 when the update came. What's probably harder is farming elixir, coz even with many DE troops to bring, still need like 120-150k elix for wiz/balloons and spells. So costly, hard to make big profit from it.

If you're still underpowered as a TH10 and the game keep giving you non premature TH10 bases to farm, aw that's gonna suck big time. Won't be any strategic enjoyment whatsoever. That's why I insist that the game needs food chain in farming, so in case like new TH 10 without any troop upgrade yet can still farm enjoyably. Farming should be relaxing and enjoyable coz the game is so grindy, going toe to toe with someone your own size or bigger anytime anywhere is not it. Also the game need interconnecting food chain to climb in the long run, otherwise no reason to be bigger and stronger.

Currently, upgrading TH only means new level of harder enemy to farm, from the top dog you become the weakest guy in the new weight class, everybody pwn you but you cant pwn anybody, still long time and lots of hard work and suffering from it, all your previous hard work counts to nothing, from hero to zero. What's the fun in that? That's awful long term outlook for the game. Better stop playing than upgrading TH lol

Compare that to food chain concept. You become a predator, you build your strength so you can take down prey easier. Sure bigger predators gonna come and wreck you, but that's what motivates you to be bigger and stronger, to climb up the food chain. You maxxed out TH 9? come upgrade to TH10, as new TH10 sure you have full strength of TH9 so you can reliably farm TH9. And you can upgrade your strength even further, be more fierce of a predator. Ain't it awesome in the long run?

Farm somebody your own size, said Supercell. You ever heard of a grizzly prey on another grizzly of the same size? xD

Farming is not dead.

All my lower th's (got 5)
all are played inactive, purely by doing 1-2 attacks a week + war income (we war 24/7) and i still progress.

as for my TH9. Im in master 1 (was in 3 at the start of the update)
and by doing 1 attack after i got my 14/16 hour shield i actually still make profits.

i often attack twice in a shield. in the first 4 hours i got it. and when its about to run out.

no way you can say i cant do that. everyone has lunch breaks. everyone has toilet time etc etc.
train the army when your shield is up. attack when you have time and queue the next army.

by doing this you need about 5-10 minutes for an attack and almost everyone can do this.

Stop complaining farming is dead. since it isnt. people just like to be lazy and hoard everything they got.

i loose around half a million resources each attack. and get it back in 1 or 2 attacks which i can easily do in a 12 hour shield period.

how hard can be for a lower th to get the resources to upgrade? Cmon, be serious, getting 1.5 million its a lot easier than 8 million. Of course your low th are still growing... Just wait and see ehat happend in th10, you will see the middle finger raising up in front of you from a corner of your lawn.

Who cares how an individual chose to play the game? That didn't force you to play that way. Great if a th7found gratification sniping to champs. I for one applaud them cause I would never have the patients for that and am sure not many people in the game would considering how few th7 were in champs. It seems like this got under the skin of everyone that wasn't in champs because I guarantee when a th10 in champs saw a th7 for trophies the last thing that went through those mind was "gee what an ♥♥♥ hole for being up here". I also find it hard to believe that SC did this because they felt people were not playing the game the way it was intended to be played. It had been played like that for 3+ years and all of the sudden they have a change of heart. SC has never dictated how the game "should" be played. I'm curious what the real reason for the change is.
