Prep Day is ♥♥

[Keving42]

Need to put a BATTLE READY button in leaders screen in both clans. Keep the 24 hour timer but as long as both clans are ready it doesn't make sense to wait 20 hours when both clans are ready to fight. Any thoughts...?

While I would like prep day to be shorter, this could cause people to have problems attacking since war day began sooner than expected. If the leader is able to select when prep day is over, it could cause problems for people who want to attack early to get the attacks they want too

its fine and should be left alone. This is a global game and the 24 hours allows for that. And it allows for that last minute grind to upgrade some more walls before the war starts.

That would be up to the clan though. And it wouldn't take affect unless both warring clans have pushed. I see what your saying but if you have a clan that is in war then delegation should be used as to what village hits whom. That's a strategy that should be used throughout. If you're in a clan that as son as war starts and the middle group takes all the easy lower villages then myself I wouldn't stay in a clan like that. Just my opinion.

Why the hurry?

War is declared at time X, war begins at time X the next day. Easy enough. People can prepare troops. Continue farming while waiting the fixed time.

Let me try your thing.

War is declared at time X. Clan A is so efficient that they push the ready button right away. Clan B see that Clan A is an American clan, so they start the war at 3:00 AM ET knowing that clan A would have to do most of their attack while people are still up.

While waiting, both clans prepare war troops and wait because they don't know when war will begin.

So Clan B is controlling the time schedule.

We start war in the evening because it's when most of the people are up. Having a random start time fixed by 2 individuals who might be in different time zones, that's like rolling a random 24 sides dice.

Like many ideas, this sounds like a logical change for SC to make, but there are some potential issues:

1. As it is now, all members of the clan know they have 24 hours to get ready for war, which should be enough time to farm resources for war armies (if necessary), and to scout/plan attacks. It might be kind of annoying for the leader to hear half of his clan say "hit the button and let's go!," if the other half of the clan isn't ready.

2. If the enemy clan hits "ready," the other clan might delay doing the same until an odd hour, in an attempt to gain some advantage.

Just things to consider. I'm not totally opposed to the idea at all.

ETA: "Black Collector" makes my point in a more clear and coherent manner above.

I feel prep day is probably longer than needed currently.

However there are several good reasons for it to be the way it is. Most important for me is to be ale to control the time the war will start and end to coordinate with the times when my clan is most active. Also for international clans the full 24 hrs may be needed due to different time zones, etc.

But at the end of the day if there was a ready button, I could always just ignore it and nothing would change for me.

It would get a bit annoying for some who press the ready button after the first hour only to have their opponent wait out the full 24 hrs, but this is really no different from the current situation anyways.

You need to learn patience.

it 24 hours because people do sleep, and this game is international.

1 clan may be in the US, another may be in CHINA.


YOU NEVER KNOW

it also gives ppl a GUARANTEED time of when it starts

i'd hate to walk away once prep day starts, to come back 24-30 hours later to find out I missed the war.
