Introducing the Friendly Challenge!

[Miladeth]

♥♥♥. Kidding me? So anyone can copy war opponent base and let his clanmates practise on it over and over again to find 3 stars strategy. So what the ♥♥♥♥? Just release the mod then! Cause there is no difference atm!

now the enemy can take as an example my war layout and keep training in clan challenges...
then attack zzzz
its like legal modding

At first glance the new update sounds great, yet everyone knows it will be totally abused. I do not see the point of all of the fairplay emphasis and then introducing this. With certain restrictions this can be something to add more fun to our game we all enjoy. Without, all the good that has occurred for the war community the last month has been for naught. It has been a breath of fresh air to go into war knowing that the best clan will win. Now, that will not be the case after giving a clan all of prep day and war day to practice on a base. Yes, we will not know with 100% certainty where traps and teslas are but most of the time it is not hard to guess. I have hope that SC will put some restrictions on this challenge or else it is one big slap in the face to all the people who clamored for and enjoyed fair play wars. Anyone see a bright side to this update?

i think you fundamentally misunderstandd FairPlay vs cheating. Modding is not FairPlay primarily because its against the TOS so by definition only cheaters can use it, secondly its a uncontrolled third party app not regulation by supercell and capable of anything technically possible. The specific things offerted by xmod can be assessed individualy whether they would improve or hurt the game. Thats a different debate but its important to understand that the specifics offered by a third party cheat app are not the salient consideration, the fact that it is in fact a third party cheat app is the issue that makes it not fair play.

Yes! I was hoping for this! We can finally settle disputes on who is the toughest attacker!


YAH!

[DanielRomanski]

All of this talk could be settled if Supercell treated us like big boys and girls and told us all the information up front.

SC, there HAS to be some way to keep this from being used to replicate enemy bases. If not, I think it will be the biggest mistake of an update that there has been. This is completely going against your "commitment to fair play" stance. It would make that update to punish xmodders look like the ONLY reason was because it mucked with your intellectual property, and had nothing at all to do with fair play.

Please tell us that you left out some detail(s) that would prevent players from copying clan war enemy bases for endless testing. PLEASE. Otherwise, this is HORRIBLE.

equal access to features is by definition fair... if its in game for all to use it can't be unfair.

Bro row people are still using ipod in war and pushing, read the Reddit forums, lol; the iPod people patched it; looks like SC and its psychic octopus is already history; all SC did was clear the botters, war people still using tools.

Maintenance in play now so we'll see, won't we???

My 10 year old asked why we can't attack our clanmates for fun. I explained that people would copy enemy war bases and then practice against those bases. The 10 year old immediately understood what a bad idea this would be. Lets hope supercell is half as smart and only allows this feature when the clan is not at war...or just backtracks and does not allow it at all.

[cnaf]

This is a horrible idea - unless there are restrictions.

You don't have to make a copy for every base...most are so overused and predictable its not worth the time. One or two bases could win a war....

Exactly. And for those that think players won't waste their time doing this-

what do you think mod and ghosters have been doing for the past 2 years?
