The NEW one and only loot is good or bad thread

[Growler]

Guys, just tell your clan mates to put their th outside so everyone could snipe for league bonuses

My TH is always out, even though I usually have no resource on offer.

offering your town hall is even more essential when you have little on offer, the thousands of nexts you will attract will remove large amounts if gold from the economy.

Get your TH's out.

This game is dying...

Pretty scary if sharonsym says the game is dying.

For quite some time now I have noticed that dead villages are not being presented as targets when raiding in anywhere near the proportion that they can be found when l simply searching clans and looking at villages. Please quit removing their availability to be raided. I'm getting sick and tired of having to spend 100k gold to find a village worth 100k gold for three stars and having to use 200k worth of troops and spells to attack it. For months now I have found that I collect and save more loot from collectors by riding shields and reaping the rewards from collectors and saving up. If your trying to get me to spend money on gems to get loot for an upgrade by limiting the fat juicy easy villages your strategy is backfiring. I used to spend money on gems when loot was easy to find and come by. I like many of my clanmates are getting frustrated with this phenomenon of almost no dead villages available to be hit. I might spend some hard earned money on this game again if the easier villages to farm were put back into the game (for example boosting troops and spells, finishing upgrade to free up builders, get the last little bit of loot for upgrade) because the game would hold some excitment again. It gets super boring to raid and raid and raid and not see the big loot numbers available for raiding. If I want to try my hand at hitting fully live villages every time I raid I will push back to champ league, tired of having to do it while farming. Upgrades happen much slower when waiting on collectors but has proven far more profitable in last few months than actually raiding for loot...supercell's profitability has suffered too with the lack of available dead villages. Supercell wants to highly restrict availability of juicy dead villages...and I highly restrict what I spend on the game!

The problem is that Supercell WONT roll this back because IMO it was a way of enticing new players to stay.

They are waiting to see if it works and no doubt biting their nails and praying.

The reason I fear it won't is that the players they are trying to keep were mesmerised by exploding bunny adverts and were NEVER going to be long term players.

They should have aimed their marketing at the demographic that gems....the 21+ market, who have patience, money and are stuck home with young families.

You are forgetting that when people start playing it is EASY ( and fun) to reach TH8..... THEN it starts to be more hard work......they don't quit but play less and less. I have really noticed an exponential increase in underdeveloped bases with low collectors and even when inactive they have really low loot....so NEXT!

I truly believe that the 'success' of media campaigns has brought a LOT of new people in but they lose interest at late TH7 and early TH8 and are now clogging up the game......hence the ridiculous nexting for decent bases.

Many have dropped into silver and gold to barch/ bam to survive leaving higher trophy levels dry.

The improvement over the weekend is simply those who have stopped playing during the week and ridden sheilds. I fear it will go back to disastrous next week......we shall see.

And.... As I have said before.... Lix for walls was the straw that broke the back of a VERY sick camel. It should NEVER have been from level 6 walls but this was done to encourage these new players to stay by making them believe they could advance their walls faster. All it has done is cause a drought in LIX and destroyed active clans.

These are the reasons I believe we are currently in such a mess......the number of poor TH8s I have to next are the result of the 'success' of heavy media advertising.

Today I tried the game after 4 weeks break due to ♥♥♥♥ loot. Loot is still God awful, SC had its last chance to keep me and my money. Would have spent way more on the game.

I finally DID it and deleted the game, now I'm deleting all my bookmarks to anything coc related so that I can finally be free of this game. Was fun while it lasted too bad greed killed the game.

I don't think it was greed per se but poor decisions and improperly targetted marketing ( see my post above).

What Supercell does over this next 4 weeks will determine whether the 'patient' comes out of intensive care or slips into a coma and dies.

Haven't bothered to raid all week because the loot is awful... Something needs to be done or players like myself or going to quit.

Go to masters.
