Supercell, it's time to....

[synchronizex]

The best bases are balanced bases... in simple economic terms it's worth people upgrading, the argument that says I don't want to waste time building them is not a long term argument, if you have no collectors or very small collectors your game stagnates when you don't play, considering the sheer time required to level up high level buildings those collectors and mines pay for themselves thousands of times over in how much time you save yourself attacking people to try and get loots.
If you are not planning on playing the game for several months you are not going to really get anywhere in this game so there really isn't any point discussing that.

Invest in the collectors and mines early and reap the rewards, don't and every minute you play this game the more you lose.

In the end it's your play style and play it how you like but your blanket statement lacks a deeper understanding in the global mechanics of this game.

Finally found a reason.. Haven't thought about long term profit and the global mechanics of this game before.. Maybe it's because of my individualist side lol.. Now I understand..

But how about now.. Is it too late for me to upgrade them..? Almost maxed out TH7 and will upgrade my TH in the next 5hrs.. Which is better ? Upgrade my mines/collectors before upgrade my TH or after I upgrade my TH ?

Edit : I have 6 lv8 mines and collectors

Lol you think supercell will follow your idea? Remember its a buiness that they own money if they follow your idea they will go ruin soon

1) it solves the problem of less loot, and still support the loot penalty system

2) it doesn't exactly make supercell lose $, but i understand that myopic-thinking players will not be able to understand such an approach and more whiners will appear.

so what your idea/solution to this then?
1 criticism + 1 contribution would be great for the forum.

I personally can find 200k/each resources just fine, just that at times i need to be extra patient with that "next" button.

I think it would be very difficult to retroactively change this rule, it would probably encourage more people to quit than to upgrade that said perhaps we could come up with another incentive for people who upgrade their collectors more.

maybe if your collectors are a maxed for your townhall level it give an HP bonus to all your buildings... something like that...

or maybe a 5% discount on walls (for maxed mines) and 5% discount on troops (for maxed collectors)

Yup, they will need to readjust the collectors/mine, like shorten the duration of upgrade, up the resource collected per hour. or some other incentives to make up for the extra time spent

Lol seriously who care about that ??you?as farmer I don't care about that,I just steal from my enemies to upgrade my base

I suggest you sit back and think on it a little bit rather than jump to conclusions.

I'm talking about the big picture. Imagine the entire clash of clans market having a total of hypotethical 100 million elixir, and a production rate of 1 million elixir per hour from collectors. Then factor in perhaps 2 million elixir per hour consumed to train troops. So in the long run, if the collectors are not upgraded, the total amount of elixir will dwindle at a rate of 1 million per hour until there are no more left (due to collector production not able to keep up with troop training usage).

But, if the collectors are upgraded to say 3 million elixir per hour, then the game will have a steady influx of elixir. The higher level the collectors, the higher this influx. And at the end of the day, even if the elixir from your collector gets raided, it's still in the overall market, available to be raided back.

So my point is, upgrading collectors increase the influx of resource into the game, and increases the amount available to be looted.

Lol if they follow your rules people's get bored and quit game... And what happen when people to quit game????I don't have say what happen later right?and why you think we have to max collector before we can claim TH lvl????sound like a dictator game lol remember there lot gemmer in game and they dont want wasted money to upgrade those collectors before they rush townhall to unlock new defense

1) it solves the problem of less loot, and still support the loot penalty system

sooooo whats your solution to this problem ?

[TNT]

Your idea is bad,maybe you can send a support ticket to supercell and tell them about your idea and what they thinking about it

sooooo whats your solution to this problem ?

[Sandalhat]

sooooo whats your solution to this problem ?

He doesn't have a solution, he said he is happy with being able to raid for his upgrades, as if none of us are doin that.

Back to the topic at hand. Whenever someone asks for more resources, the go to answer would be upgrade your collectors.

The main reason people are short of resource is they use a lot for upgrade, but give back so little via collectors. It's a zero sum game after all.
