Some things I would like to see in the game. And complaints

[SkyMage1001]

You made the choice to play this game. Supercell is in no way forcing you to pay by playing.

Suggest how Supercell could change this game so that there is no pay-to-win, they still make good money, and the game can function effectively.

Seriously though, lets not start an argument. And following the logic of the posts above me, people were saying the manufacturer gives the right to play their game. None of the posts said anything about human life... Maybe the monetary system is not the perfect system but you've got to admit it works quite well. Nobody can blame SC for how they run their game. It's what most people in their position would do. Actually, they handle it very well, giving us things like anniversary boosts.

I wouldn't say that a system that makes a species destroy itself and everything else around it is "working well" in my opinion at least.

on topic:OP I don't think we can blame supercell for putting profits first, it's the nature if the beast and I don't think we would have such a high quality game without it. If the pay to play business model offends you that much I really don't see why you would play such games let alone be spending time on these forums.

I did a double take when I read this. Are you just trolling or are you trying to seriously suggest that because people are playing Clash of Clans and spending money because they are too impatient to wait a couple of days of building time that the whole of our species is now threatening to destroy itself!? I think a lot of people who have posted saying that gems are ruining the game have to take a look at other games and think how different are they. There are MMORPG's that can be played online that people pay for memberships each month and still spend more on in-game money and weaponry. The vast majority of app-store games that are available to download, free or otherwise, also contain the features to skip levels, buy in-game currency and items. I, quite frankly, think that many people are either too angry and annoyed at the high level players, too angry with not having enough money to buy gems themselves or too angry with Supercell to realize that this is not an uncommon way of setting up a game. In fact over 95% of games give the player the ability to buy in-game items and currency with similar results.

Saying that Supercell has produced a game that is destroying our species is absurd. You are acting as though Clash of Clans is the one game that has this type of game-play and should be instead giving everyone free gems so that everyone can be top players. Everyone saying that Supercell is doing a bad job and only care about money needs to wake up. Yes they do care about money but they do not do a bad job. Take the 2nd anniversary gem boost. You got twice the amount of resources in that week than normal and still complain! In addition those that say that gems are really hard to collect in-game simply need to remove more of their natural spawns. I, on average, get around 5 gems a day which adds up to 35gems a week which is 1820gems per year, not even counting the gem boxes. Sure this is not a lot to boost your base hugely but the point is that you still gain gems and can use these for the gem boosts, if you need a little more elixir or gold, or to cut the upgrade time. And the fact of the matter is that this is done by Supercell for a purpose. Just imagine is everybody was a TH10 with maxed defenses and walls because Supercell gave away 10,000gems for their anniversary and there were free gems that just rained from the sky. That game would be unbelievably boring because there would be no variance between bases.

In the end it all comes back to one point. If you want to buy gems then go ahead but don't get angry with Supercell because they won't supply you with free gems.

Tinkerbell, (or any moderator) please close this thread. The original post had no value and it has degenerated into some sort of debate about the survival of the human species being compromised by the financial success of the video game industry. Nothing good can come from this discussion.

Thanks,

Not one intelligent response, has society become such a bunch of zombies they cant see what is right before them. All I am seeing is 'Yes men' the very reason for the evil corrupt society we live in. On your logic then mankind has no right to life since they didn't pay something for it. I will tell you this now there is consequences to way this world is setup and those consequences are beginning to manifest.

Gibberish.

Seek help.

It has come to my attention that the clan donations done in wars do not help complete the achievements. Nor does it get counted in the database that shows donations. It would be better if all forms of donation counted towards the achievements and were recorded in the database. Also the gem reward for donating 5000 troops is underwhelming it should be increased and for those whom have already completed it give them the difference of gems from the new reward. This goes for the older achievements all of them which are so pathetic half aren't worth it.

You just now realized this?

Anyways, they made an official announcement, posted in a different thread. They won't be changing this anytime soon.

The boost for a week for 1 gem was great, how about giving us a better boost for like 20 gems for 7 days. Acquiring gems in the game is not easy unless pay for it, this game should not be about pay to win. If super cell doesn't want a reputation as one the greediest and evil company's in world they need to give more to players. Doesn't help when they brag about money they making of manipulating players by designing a game which should be illegal to begin with.

There are plenty of large multi billion dollar corporations out there that have that title and Supercell is FAR from it.

You mention it several time but I don't think you truly understand it. This is a FREE to play game. If they really wanted to be greedy, they'd implement a $10 monthly fee, I bet many of you would pay it rather than lose your game. This has been THE best mobile gave I've ever played.

This game could have been made with less pay to win options, the whole reason they make things take so long and such slow process of gaining loot is to make people pay them money. This game angers me more than is fun at times seeing that most top levels players just bought their way to it and super cell has designed the game for them.

I don't think you realize what "Pay to Win" really means. Having a Free to Play game with premium currency does not make this pay to win. Pay to win games are games that have premium items that give you an advantage in competition that can only be received through the purchase with real money. Such games would have that special super dooper BFG that kills everything in one shot.

This item is not available by F2Players and must be purchased. Thus PAID to win. Everyone in CoC is capable of have the best base and the best troops - it either cost you time or money - but it's available to everyone.

What happened to games they us't to be about the fun of the games now days it all greedy company's after a cash grab. Nearly all free to play games cost people more than games they would buy, it is a deception it is a manipulation and is completely mortally deficient. I am surprised their hasn't been a class action lawsuit against these company's taking advantage of the human psyche, they are using peoples mental weakness of wanting to progress or being impatient against them, of wanting to be ahead of others. Why has games become like this thought their was laws that prevented such scamming, that basically what it is scamming. If people are to stupid to see this and realize something is wrong with gaming industry of today then they already brainwashed by them.

Class Action Lawsuit? Talk about promotion of frivolous litigation.

If a company can be sued for taking advantage of the human psyche, we'd all be in jail. That's the whole concept of Marketing!

There is absolutely nothing wrong with making money from impatient people. Otherwise, our own government would be going to jail for something as simple as a Toll Road that costs money but saves you an hour taking the longer route.

I suppose McDonald's should be sued too for taking advantage of human natures desire to stay alive. How dare they dangle food in front of a hungry persons face! THE NERVE!

Many peoples life's have been effected even some ruined because of these greed designed games, even one of the top players he quit because it was negatively effecting his life, he hardly could afford his rent due to the addiction these games encourage. And for the rich do they not feel guilt spending thousands on a video game while someone else in world doesn't even have enough to afford food or shelter. Tell you this now people like this better hope their is no God or they wont be going any were good and this goes for supercell and it owners, only place greed going end you up is Hell.

I'm an adult professional. I haven't spent many gems. I'd say about $30 worth between two accounts and a year of playing. Mostly for builders. They haven't forced me to spend anymore than I am comfortable spending. If you are spending money on a mobile game instead of rent, something is definitely wrong with you and you should quit. That's not supercell's fault that some people have no self control.


Isn't there an empty tent over at Occupy Wall Street you need to get back to?
