Q: I don't really see the clan system being integrated into the builder base. What are your thoughts on a clan war system, but for the builder base instead of just the home village? Or both at the same time? Has a "clan castle" been proposed for the builder's base? Where do you personally stand on all of these ideas?
A: Builder Base was always originally designed to be a more "solo" experience. It was something to do to kill time in between upgrades in the Home Village. So incorporating more Clan type things into it is very challenging since it wasn't designed with it in mind. The problem with a Clan War system for the Builder Base is that Builder Base requires your opponent to be online at the same time in order to preserve the head-to-head functionality, which is one of the main points of Builder Base. If we created an asymmetric battle system, it'd be no different than regular Clan Wars. So any kind of team competition would require a different approach. It's something one of our designers is quite interested in, so hopefully his ideas will eventually bear some fruit.
