To Those Still Complaining on Loot

[TheWompyOverlord]

i went up from gold 1 to crystal 2, but all i found there were bases with 20-40 k pink and elixir after clicking countless times "next" button i drooped back to gold 1, at least few 100k s in there

but seriously, the reason why the loot is so bad right now is because everyone that log outs spends their resources on walls

as a result they log out with 200 k pink and elixir so there are no bases to raid because almost everyone doing this
maybe an good solution would be to let us steal 100 % loot for bases under 200,000 elixir and gold

as then there would be no more hiding by spending the cash on walls

This is a good idea, if we were able to take all the loot from low loot bases, or at least a higher percentage for anything under 1 million, then we would still be able to function without really taking much from those saving up for higher upgrade costs (who would still offer a lot). The best amount of loot to hold (from a perspective of keeping it) would be 2-3 mil ish.

Yes, as I see it the problem is not farmers getting cheap shields. Realistically it's a necessary strategy to save for expensive upgrades particularly since loot becomes more scarce and more expensive to get. The real issue is the huge number of skint broke bases we have to next past. 35k league bonus in c3 still doesn't make a broke base worthwhile. Risk aversion seems to be the problem. So many players spend everything they raid and even leave their collector levels ridiculously low so that they won't be attacked. Lix for walls made this worse since there's now no reason for these guys to go offline with more than 75k of either lix or gold.

200k is probably too much though and it would have to scale to their th level. Perhaps 10k per th level as an unprotected amount. This would actually encourage people to stay above the minimum unprotected amount.

Sooo... I have to play 8hr a day to make progress? Sorry but working 55hr shift/week, + house chores and all, no thx...

Also, what about those who don't have the necessary troops to push to master? They will struggle for months pushibg, making no progress cause they can't find anything while pushing?

I'm not sure.. I make small progress, loot is not that great, i can farm but it is really slow.. Having idle builder but not i just don't cares anymore

[AxionXD]

Yup. I mean, it's so obvious what started this Avalanche of trouble. Lix for walls. Elixer used to be all over and people could build whatever army they wanted to hunt for the scarce gold. Now, you almost have to gem. The armies needed to get into th 10's take Lix and time. And they are, usually, the only bases I come across holding decent amount.

So we went from so easy that you didn't ever have to worry about having the best army all the time to steamroll every opponent.....


....to having to ration your resources, making the game more challenging....

I'm sorry that Supercell removed your special button....

Still be able to function? Able to take all the loot when below 1 million, that's absurd! Who would be able to break that threshold? Those that have seen the 6 hour personal break? The average player would never get beyond 1 million if all or majority of their loot was taken. This is the most backwards suggestion I've ever seen.

Meh. I haven't had a huge loot issue. Some days are better than others, but I still manage fairly well. No complaints.

Just keep nexting and leagues make a difference depending on TH.

LOL Pfft. Don't confuse challenging with time consuming.

[BodMonZero]

I swear every thread about loot gets out of control...

The last thing Supercell wants to do is go backwards. They're not about putting out an update and then just backing those updates out because a portion of their player base are dissatisfied. They'd rather look at the change (let's say changing lvl6 walls and up being able to be upgraded using elixir) and determine if to their satisfaction it's having the desired effect on the game or if to them (the creators of the game in the first place) something isn't working as intended and may need to be adjusted or perhaps as a last resort, be changed back to the way it was before.

You mentioned going backwards, but how about all of the nerfs they've done over the past year? Witches, hogs, heroes....all nerfed, in other words, moving backwards. Sometimes moving backwards is the best way to go.

As a great shirtless Texan once said, "Sometimes you have to go back, to actually move forward. . . alright alright alright"

I never said they only do bad deeds. I said their recent updates have been geared towards increasing profits, not sustaining playablility.

I'm not playing, I quit.

I linger because I've easily put 300+ hours into this game and that's enough for me to stay on the forums.


Color-coded responses.

300+ hours = 12 1/2 + days... you sir have truly dedicated yourself.. I'm impressed and yeah, I definitely understand that after so much dedication and commitment, you'd still feel compelled to linger on the forums. That makes sense.

You have to keep in mind that with how I play it earns about 6 million gold a day. That's almost one maxed defense daily. Not everyone will have the time to do so and I don't expect them to. What I'm saying is that it is possible, and if you only have time to earn 3 million a day, or a raid here and there, that's great! Do that. Everyone has different goals in the game and my crazy dream of a fully maxed base may not be shared by many other casual players.
