Should the match cost be scrapped?

[dahimi]

I think the cost should be maintained, except instead of it going to supercell, it should go to the base that you've just skipped. There should also be a notice every time you log on as to how much money you've made from being skipped over.

That's the one that is ruled out.

As much as I like saving resources as much as the next person: this feature has to stay in place. Otherwise people can just skip to the next opponent, looking for hoarded resources to steal, without paying for it in anyway.

There has to be a cost in finding them to be a balance in the game eg. If u had a army in real life it would cost money if fuel.. To move it to attack.

Someone around here posted the idea of having the cost decrease. Something like the first 10 nexts costs the listed amount and each next after drops in cost by 50 gold (or some percentage...say 5%) until the cost is 50% of what it was.

Might have even been in this thread. That's an idea I'd support. I think the cost is important, but I also think it can be prohibitive.

Maybe not scrapped but they should DO something with it as opposed to sucking all this loot out of the game!

It amuses me that they acknowledge there was a loot problem but did nothing about the things that remove loot from the game. Troops, spells, they help you get resources...search cost is a tax that goes to no one! makes no sense.

So, today I have raided around 1.5m but only have 794k in my storages - thats inclusive of loot bonus! Thats how bad this searching has got this past week. Ive clashed for well over a year and never have I ran at a loss. I would literally make more if I didnt play and just collected my mines.

The poor loot would be half bearable if I was just wasting time searching and not my gold too.

Give us back the gold if we win, give it to the defender if we lose, but do something with it!!

In Boom Beach you only pay for when you attack, obviously they are different games and it would be quite a change to do that. Perhaps lowering the cost of searching and adding a larger cost for attacking would be a good balance for CoC.

I doubt anyone finds opponent to attack 4 times click in avarage. Should be like 20 clicks.

lol yea most people hit next way more than that… me particularly because i farm and its hard to find a base with 200k plus gold at 1500 trophies… i probably waste at least 20k gold an attack, not even to mention i rarely profit elixir but thats a different story.

No. And can we please remove regular posts that keep popping up about this. There are a lot of good ideas that end up going to the 2-3rd pages of this forum because of repetitive posts.
