The NEW one and only loot is good or bad thread

[Aleksander]

Your complaints do not dent their wallet, only your actions do. Your complaints effectively result into nothing. However, if every complainer would quit playing and more importantly quit paying, then this may negatively impact their revenue and result in actions desired by the complainers (the conundrum being that the quitters wouldn't benefit from the change). However, if complaints aren't backed up with actions, why would anything change?

Furthermore, when I'm saying that SC doesn't cater to the masses, it means that the company doesn't implement changes in order to appease the majority of its players base, but with the purpose of extracting more money out of them. The vast majority of the players perhaps make small one-time investments or several minor investments over time to buy more builders, speed up barracks etc. and that's about all the money they will ever spend on the game. And since the vast majority consists of people trying to get resources for upgrades, resources are the most logical element for SC to affect in order for this segment to spend more money. I would hardly call that catering to the masses. It caters to the people who already spend the most since it doesn't negatively impact them, while it does negatively impact the majority.

You actually have many very good points there. I have nothing against anything you said

[Onomatopoeia]

And yet - SC has listened to people and implemented changes based on people's suggestions . I don't know the motivations of people that seem to come on here and say such words of wisdom.

Complaints and suggestions are worlds apart. Anyway, this mode of communication is very limited and I do admit that some nuance can be lacking. You shouldn't regard what I (or people in general) have said in absolutes: I'm not implying that they NEVER listen to the community or that they NEVER do anything to appease the players. I'm talking about a particular issue: loot. So, perhaps now you could give me an example when suggestions have led to a solution which have appeased the vast majority of players in this regard then?

For the records,

1900 trophies. First 5 nexts on 3 different raids, 250+K, 250+K, 800+.

Woohoo the LOOT is back everyone...

One sparrow does not a spring make. It's getting gradually better, but it's still spotty.

Hence the rolling of the eyes smiley.

My th09 boosted 2 hr results.

1.6 Gold
1.1 Elix
13,183 dark

From Gold 2 to just under crystal.

These boosted afternoon raids use to be in the 4 million gold and 2 million plus elix.
But I will say its a good time to get that dark.

I've been very lucky and had good raids the whole time but think supercell should have done the whole boost collector thing after the update! Would have solved the problem much sooner IMO.

[hotrodder]

Hmm maybe the loot has something to do with the bots that i get attacked by daily?

[Prettymessy]

After trying unsuccessful during the past few days to accumulate gold and elixir,

I finally decided to dump all resources into whatever upgrade I can get and go to sleep.

I started with over 3m resources (both gold and elixir), hardly to find base with justifiable loot of 100k (combine),
but was raided immediately looting off temporary.

MAI realised it is an uphill task. Not point continuing, so I dump most away.
Im now left with less than 1m resources (combine) after hiding majority in barracks.
I know now others will likely NEXT my base too. There's a false sense of achievement.

Its amazing how an interesting game can turned into a boring game so quickly.

Happy nexting

[Coathanger]

I am doing pretty ok with loots and nexting, averaged 2:15 secs per raid this morning with the most being 5:51.


Oh you want to question the nexting? Here is a vid see for yourself. Quite a few rich bases I had to next past as I could not compete.



Yes I sped up the nexting so you did not have to watch it in real time.

[xDee]

Well I personally experienced very bad loot in the days following the update, and I have cut back my playing (and thus raiding) time down to almost zero as a result. It's been a week or so since the update, so I'll give loot another shot this evening and see if things have improved. Hopefully it has rebounded somewhat, even though I doubt it's back to "normal".

Perfect perfect perfect. Just from a moderator who understands what we are trying to say. Look at the active bases with available loot, not just in-actives for elixir. How will I save up for pekka3 pekka4, pekka5 upgrade in this economy without in-active bases? Impossible

The moderator is with us and saying bad loot! (2000+ people)
And then theres Harrisman24 saying theres good loot (2000+ posts) and maybe 2 more with him

2000 / 1 ratio

LOL
