New matchmaking and game difficulty

[Sinos]

Ranting will never end no matter how good the game gets.

Quote of the day!!! U can't please everyone, ppl complained, it was changed to suit the complains, but then they complain about the changes. Maybe instead of all this ranting we should think about strategies n helpful hints to beat the higher lvl n protect ur trophies count.

I really like this matchmaking system, anybody talking about hard or impossible for farming, but with this new system i can find tons of resources, really smooth and fast, ty supercell

Come on super cell, it is clear you just want more money from gems. I think so far this update s worse than the dreaded update everyone hated. It seems with every new update you try and get more and more gems out of us. There as to be a balance. Sure you got to make money. But every good product serves the consumer. It seems this game is being run more and more like a casino. I hope you listen to this cause it's a great game if we are not screwed too hard

I'm at 1575 trophies and level 44 and all I find is level 55-65 and if I find someone close my level then they have less than 10k gold. It should at least find people with 70% elixir of my current force otherwise fighting isn't even worth the trouble. We should at least be able to select whether we want elixir or gold to avoid spending 5k just to do 1 fight.

Please fix matchmaking way to hard now. All my battles have xbow and black walls. Icant find ones my offence can win on. Half of it was picking ur battles to win. Now u just cant win. Iv talked to lots of others and they agree i hope more start to realize it too!

Well, if you are not strong enough to win a fair match in your current trophy range, then you can adjust your trophy amount to find matches that are closer to your village's strength. Like said in the original post, we didn't change the difficulty of the game but rather only the perceived difficulty changed because you are now offered matches that should be closer to your strength and thus more challenging.

That is so untrue. Why should I have to lose trophies I earned to get better matches. If I fought low level people in the past I would only get one trophy, so there was no point doing that. I am Level 7 TH and now only get level 9 TH matches. You should factor in the TH in the matches. It is sooooo simple, but of course then people would not have to spend as much. We all know these changes are for profit only. Also the change means there is less resources to be found. Of course this change again is for profit.... Oh well I will go and lose a heap of trophies on purpose and see if it helps, I somehow doubt it........ was thinking of buying another builder (my 4th) but certainly wont be spend ANY money now. And just logged out and won so my trophies just increased.............

It's easier to just say to "earn your way up", especially for those who took advantage of the old system. Let's not kid ourselves here folks. While I am pretty much over this whole thing and I have found a way to adapt to this new system, I still believe that it is flawedand geared towards to those who are willing to pay for gems. We will all agree to disagree regardless, and I agree that no matter how much they improve the system, it will always have flaws and people will complain.

You'd all be lying to yourselves if you think that you got your way up to the top by simply battling foes that matched your abilities. Everyone at one point preyed on the weak and farmed their way to the top. The game was set up that way.

Everyone spent money on defence now we need better attacking troops they know that too. Cleary for money but ya what can you do. Lol wow

A few things I have noticed about the update that will help and hinder the game are,when things settle down you will find that your trophies will be reflected on how strong your defense is and not on your level so if you are like me and are a level 63 and on 2150 all I will find is battles that I can't possibly win,so I guess the strategy of fighting your way up the ranks without spending lots of real money is gone,i find that the ppl who do not spend huge money on this game will hurt the most.what may put new players off playing is that you will get a lot more ppl dropping all there trophies to farm ppl for there recourses which may put off ppl wanting to play.i do understand what supercell are trying to achieve with the mm but getting resources at my level seems impossible unless Iam happy to lose every battle and farm lower levels.i hope you take on board what I have said supercell and I know it's not easy pleasing everyone,thx for your time.

To keep things short, I really do like the idea of the patch. My huge problem is that I am having an EXTREMELY hard time finding bases with enough resources that I can actually progress from.


Trophies are cool, but we need resources to advance ourselves. Resources are extremely difficult to come by, and are just not available in high enough quantities. The whole gaining / spending resource system in this game is REALLY out of whack. Things are just way too expensive for how much you gain and how fast you gain.

HERE WE ARE ! SEE ? THE FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM : So they patched the game to make our life "easier" to win more trophies BUT NOT ENOUGH LOOT TO PROGRESS and then we come here and complain, and what are they answering to us ?
THIS : "Well, if you are not strong enough to win a fair match in your current trophy range, then you can adjust your trophy amount to find matches that are closer to your village's strength." FROM Rauta.

What an hypocritical suggestion ! We don't care about trophies if we can't find enough resources to protect these. It is that simple.

One more thing, I noticed that you, moderators and developpers, are answering whenever you like.
