These ppl just need some more $$ ..no way they are reverting the changes that will be made. I guess they would take the clock tower in the near future lol! How a great game is ruined in 2 months time!

What's the point? SC doesn't care

When sc are not listening to customers maybe they listen money.

Alas, if forum posts could generate 1.21 "jigawatts" of power. When the Clock Tower was being developed, it was originally designed to be a "once per day" boost. But that utility felt trivial so we upped it to where it's at today and in the shuffle of getting the Builder Hall out, we realized too late it needed to be dialed back down to where it will be when the update goes live.

This adjustment was not meant to penalize players, though I understand it does feel like one and I understand why many are up in arms about it. We are also looking at how it affects long term use as we roll out additional BH levels as well, and at the current rate it would exponentially give users 9 hours per day worth of boost at BH level 8 - an amount that is just way too much.

This is what we meant when I mentioned in the content update thread why it was important to bring it in-line with relative upgrade times. The Clock Tower in its current iteration was just too powerful. Yes it's a useful building to have, but it had become meta-breaking, and any time you have a meta-breaking system that everyone relies on, that causes a bottleneck of reliance.

So we're bringing the Tower down to where we actually wanted it to be at from the start.

The once per day (or 22h) seem to me to be a better solution. Current duration is just to short for attacking. Rather have them all at once.

It isn't meta breaking at all. Just add 6 hours of build time to each of the bh8 structures and no one would be the wiser. We, the players don't know what bh8 looks like yet so the slightly longer upgrade times wouldn't be a shock, yet nerfing the clock tower is. There was a way around it but SC screwed it up. The clock is obviously not op at bh5 (because you inferred so in your post) so who cares. Just adjust everything else.

You guys really need to hire a consultant that will look over ideas that possibly could be seen as a slight to the community. This stuff happens way to often with sc and it could be avoided all together. If I were running the company, I would seriously consider firing the entire PR and forum staff. They are some of the worst I have ever seen.
