Sneak peeks!!!:d

There has also got to be something to increase loot (lvl 12 collector/better search filter) or else tere will be worse loot than there is now. Everyone will be dumping both resources into walls.

I for one, welcome this change for certain reasons.

I always considered elixir as wastage. now i won't. I can now spend both elixir and gold before logging out and DE zaps will be less due to people becoming stingy using elixir to zap ;p

Anyways, i still think, with troop usage, out of 4 lavas, i will only be able to upgrade 1 wall with elixir and 3 with gold.
This doesn't make elixir more important than gold. Now both resources are equally welcomed.

Though i wish this change came earlier. I already did 140 lavas ;p

ITT: People complaining about an update in a video game.

First world problems to the nth degree.

Thats me with maxed defense upgrading walls to legos now. At 8m elix and nothing to spend it on. Love this sneak peek!

Down the line is is the exact same thing: the older partner needs to do more work for the same result. The junior associate only spends 25 years and the partner 30 years. We are looking at identical players like you mentioned earlier, so the qualities are the exact same. The junior associate earns 5 years of partner priviliges compared to the partner, whom has the exact same qualities, does not.

As stated, this is because things change. I work in an industry (public accounting) that has undgergone tremendous change in the last 15 years. Pre-2001 (Enron and other scandals) you could make partner in about 7-8 years. Now that is unheard of blasphemy. This has nothing to do with the relative skill or value of the employees. The fundamental nature of the business changed.

Did you play the game pre december loot change when there was less competition for dead bases? Then you played in a different era of clash, and your experiences, challenges, and/or advantages cannot be compared to a player starting now. Much like I can't compare my career progression to someone starting public accounting X amount of years ago. You need to just get over it, and understand that things change beyond your control.

not a good idea doesnt make much sense

im just a th8 but ive got skulls and i can imagine the grind for higher levelled walls.....there is actually some prestige in farming high level walls...this just doesnt cut it

we'll start seeing things like "farmed all legos: gold only" and stuff like that...just no

SC needs to reconsider...make some other way to use elixir continuously....not sure how the game economy will change....definitely cant talk about "useless elixir" now but this is not the way to go

the row thing is cool and has been coming for a while now

im sure some thought must have gone into the elixir wall thing but youre constantly alienating older players....cant blame you for looking ahead to the newbies but that doesn't mean blatantly undermining players who have been supporting this game for quite a while now

not confident about the chances of the sneak peek being pulled but im hopeful something happens

With walls now costing elixir, TH9s will now be able to upgrade their walls to lavas at a much faster pace than th10, where elixir is much more scarce!

I still remember the days sitting at TH9 not knowing what to do with the overflowing purple elixir... well, at least SC solved that problem for all TH9s and below.

I somewhat agree, at townhall 8 I could farm 8 million a day rather easy. If we could've used elixir back then, that's 32 skull walls a day!

Irony in your argument. It doesn't mean that you enjoying this update means that the top of the tree has to accept you. Your mind is incorrect. You stating that we the hardcore players are selfish and do not wish new players to catch up. I'll be right damn straightforward with it. I do not want them to catch up. Why? Cus it's obviously ridiculous to shorten the time needed to achieve the same results. What bout you? You wanting to enjoy the benefits of this update and we do not enjoy a single thing? Damn you're so damn self-centered.

Your the one with the silly argument. "Oooo I had to grind and now they have it easy." So what, who cares. I am th9, lv 91 I have never spent a dime on gems, I still have only 3 builders nearly max weapons, maxing my walls and heroes and I glad for the update. Shut up and suck it up. Especially the SHUT UP part.

[Blubberblase]

Stop moaning it will be amazing!

I have no problem if you think like that, but please explain why

What are you talking about I followed your link and found a post by Steve but it wasn't about walls?

In the first post GodDan has cited what steve said in seattle:
"There is a bad economy and it is tough upgrading walls" Steve-"I think you will be very happy about walls and the economy soon"
