So its the players fault that they haven't or don't want to play the BB and don't want a link between the bases ?
Oh and to be clear I'm fully maxed on my main base and the BB....as I knew this kind of introduction was a risk (even though SC suggested this kind of introduction wouldn't happen)....so I'm very well placed....but I still totally disagree with having a sixth builder being made available in the BB for the main base...
The issue isn't that there's a connection between the game and the silly little side game.
It's that for years, since Builder Base came out, the key response to people not liking builder base bas been
"If you don't like builder base, don't play it then, you aren't disadvantaged"
- and now, clearly, you ARE disadvantaged
It's not the connection has been made between the two bases, it's that overnight, the message has totally changed.
I'll be clear, I play the barest minimum of BB. I do trivial challenges, but not even enough to get three wins daily. It simply holds no appeal for me. I'll grind for the 6th builder because it will be useful when TH13 comes out. It won't be useful to me for this new update unless there is something new coming we haven't seen yet that needs a builder. 3 builders for heroes, one builder for mortars, one builder for walls...

I’ve been following the thread, but mostly not posting since the first day since I just don’t think one hut is important at all (I expect to care much more about the legends change), but I keep seeing this statement. I know some moderators have said it and I know some players have said it, because at the time it was true, but has that been an actual official stance from SC? The closest I can think of is our community manager Darian maybe in response to some requests for stronger gear-ups that they didn’t want there to be such a big advantage connected to builder base, is that what you are referring to?

Contact SC here. Click here for how trophies are calculated. An idea to improve legends here. I wish max players had a separate loot bank as described here. Caution, I often discuss for the sake of discussion and enjoy having my opinion challenged (or approved of) even when I care little about the actual issue. My balance wish: get rid of tornado trap, make it a decoration.
Yup
again and again and again this is said by moderators especially when closing threads (I think by Darian too, but a search like that is beyond me)
Supercell Moderators are official mouth peices, what they say holds a lot of weight, even if they aren't employed.
people who dislike the builder base, and had the gall to say so!, have been told if you don't like it and don't play it then you aren't disadvantaged (so effectively just shut up)
now I am not complaining about the update or the extra builder, just pointing out that this is a BIG change in philosophy from what was an optional sidegame to something that opens very important content
i dont think is that much too, but i have to agree that this builder hut shouldnt be added in war layouts, since at the high level plays, such as champions 1 and world championship, ONE building makes the whole difference between a 99% and a 3 star - i've experienced this a lot at my clan and our champion 1 CWL.
TH12: maxed
BB 8: maxed
Waiting for new updates![]()
I am one of the players who simply dislike the builder base. There is no depth to it. There is no cleverness. It is beyond dull. Once you reach a given level your chance of winning plateau at 50% more or less. upgrade anything and you go down like lead. There is no balancing or fine tuning because there are too few troops and buildings, it is a very digital gameplay: win or lose.
I even haven’t bothered upgrading my main village archer tower or mortar. Being a software developer, I am against free to play as a core principle. Force me to maintain my main village by playing something I do not want to play, I mean PLAY, not having to do something under constraints, and I will immediately drop the game. Because it is about playing and enjoying a GAME.
I haven’t understood what SuperCell encrypted message means yet on linking the two bases. Hopefully I can carry on not bothering with the builder base. If not, then time to move like so many others before.
Countdown to OBS sneak peek... can’t wait to see it.
Nothing here stays the same forever. You must learn to change as the game changes, or clash will force you one way or another.
