CLAN WARS - Can we organise our thoughts?

CLAN WARS : Improvement Thread - Keep it Constructive please!


So this thread is about the forums opinions about Clan wars. I wanted to put together a list of all the issues and suggestions and hopefully if we can keep it on track then maybe SC can have a look. The OP contains two distinct sections: Issues / Improvements.

There may be a need to have additional sub-sections so if you can be clear about the area and specific about the aspect you have an issue with that would be great. I have included a couple of my own

I will update the OP with peoples comments and then maybe run a poll after to see which is the most concerning for most here.


ISSUES THAT NEED FIXING

HEROS
* Upgrading Heros should be permitted to attack in War
Match Making
* Unbalanced - Extend the search time frame to allow better match ups


******************************************

Suggestions or improvement to Clan Wars

• Increase DE reward significantly
• Clan member "Opt In/Out" feature
• Clan War Donation stats
• Extended battle time (i.e. 4 minutes)
• War Stats Page
• Revenge War/ Grudge Match
• Star Loot Multiplier
• Clan OPT in / out - this allows all clans into the same pot. Then match making happens this should improve the match making
• Tag a Oppoents base as a "preferred target for player x"
• Abandon WAR - allows strategic withdrawal from war before war day. opponent gets some free loot

correct me if I'm wrong but are troops donated to war bases counted to your friend in need?

Nope, and they shouldn't be either. They should, however, be recorded somewhere.

Also, we need an opt-out.

the hero thing is the only glaring issue for me. And maybe a war trophy system where your clan gains and loses trophies based on the results, which might help with the matchmaking.

That wouldn't be fair to many clans would do it. I like the way it is sometimes super hard others very even and after a couple losses how good is it to come across a super easy win

1 minute time extension!! Im sorry, hate if you want but this is war, not a regular attack. So many easy 20 sec more 100% destructions... Time extension..... Because its WAR!

What wouldn't be fair? An opt-out? People are opting out already, by either leaving the clan or booting before war, or having a separate war clan. This is less than ideal, as it can be cumbersome, and donation stats are lost.

there is so much more strategy that could be added to this..

1. A strategy page where leaders/coleader can assign who is attacking who, it could even have a small note if we want to put in specfic strategies and comments etc
2. Allow clans who want to war against other to do so, not always random. A grudge match, a revenge match
3. Allow for more dynamic match making, eg we believe that our clan of 30 can take on higher level clan and we want that challenege - ege th9s taking on more th10s, let the leaders have some adjusted search parameters
4. Reward the most heroic defence/attack - we dont want low town halls trying for it just for rewards - thats a clan management issue but some reward even if its just a star beside their name until next war. The same for MVPs, most stars won, most successful defences
5. Reward the stars more, keep the same CW bonus for a 1 star win, double it for 2, triple it for 3, make it really worth while
6. As this is not regular attacking and the same principle dont apply, eg upgrading defence and heroes can be used, then tweak some other things - surviving troops return to camps etc

Longer search time frames for more balanced match ups.

they seem like good suggestions.. But you raise no specific issues
