Clash has slowed down to the point of being a little dull. I used to be addicted to this game (actually, I still am) but I can't play as much anymore because it doesn't make sense.
It actually makes sense to play less. I used to dedicate an hour or two most days to Clash (2/3 times a week on boost) but now I'm just bored, waiting for an army.
This is gonna get old... fast.
What did you do while waiting for an army before? And why aren't you still using that army?Quote:

Chat is dead. We - just 5 minutes ago - lost another long time player.
Every raid is gowipe, or equivalent, with 3 to 5 spells.
I no longer war because I can't make enough elixir to war and push and make a bejillion spells.
It takes so long to make a army for mm, I feel like everyday is war day...
on war days I don't play as much, cause I make full troops, everyone needs donations, I log in, donate, log out, eventually, I get the troops I need, then go do my war attack, log off
now MM is like that, so I put the game down, a couple hours go by, and I'm either busy, or just forget to play now, I think I'm logging in some days once a day, some days none at all, my clan stopped warring...we have no loot
A waiting game is still a game :3
plain waiting for SC to fix it....login/ collect from mines and drills, dump it in walls/ nothing new/ log off... that is as much fun SC made this game
I am getting sick and tired of people who are trying to condescend members, which I feel is the majority here that dislike the update. Yes it does get boring when you have to build a war army every-time to get loot. Not only that it makes us less active in the game. For example I would Prepare my war army than do something for that hour or two. than I may have actually forgotten about the game. My wife is finding that I am spending more time doing things around the house now. She actually teases me and constantly thanks SC for this update. I feel I am not the minority here. Does anyone else feel they are logging in less to clash since the update?Quote:

Ignorant forum goers post that "supercells wants us all to be using gowipe," and for some reason people believe them.....
Yes, I would imagine the game would get boring if you had to wait for a war army to build every time.... So don't build a war army.Quote:

Unfortunately, that army and raiding style required a system that supported farming; this one does not (as stated by SC in multiple in-game support responses).

The game still supports farming. It's ludicrous to say it does not.Quote:

I could go down to crystal/gold/silver/bronze, and Barch I'm sure...
Ill just get pushed back up daily, and I am just trying to play the game as intended...
im thinking soon they may eliminate a way to drop trophys and we will all be pushed up...
so im going with the flow as of now...
if they do eliminate trophy dropping, all the players doing so, barching down on the weak bases... Will be gone
then everyone will be going thru what some of us are, that aren't dropping trophys...
possibly wrecking the game more, unless they adjust the league bonuses, and maybe give a defense bonus...
or heck, they might bring farming back...
im not quitting the game
but the game now feels like it's a quick log in, 5 mins of play, log out game... Kind of like those games that only generate 5 lives max... You get to play, run out of lives... Then have to wait at least a half hour for a new life, pay for lives, or request a life from a friend to play
thats exactly what I am doing, attacking for loot, once or twice a day, with a full army, in master IQuote:

You know there's this new feature called dark elixir spells, right? Cuts your spell waiting time in half if you mix up your spell usage, in addition to lowering your elixir costs, at the expense of a small bit of dark elixir. Also, if you have to use all your spells in every raid you do you're probably hitting bases that are too strong for you.Quote:

The cheapest possible army now takes 25 minutes and even then you have to wait on spells. I can fight two fights pretty hour max. There is no way, even boosting, to do what I did before. To most folks, that is farming. Now, You are just fighting and slowly accumulating loot. Not farming.
Again, your definition of farming is skewed by your ignorance. You can't miss something you never had.Quote:
