War base layouts ruins prep time?

[TheConfuzed1]

I hope people that do this get caught with their pants down. Buildings scattered all over the place but are either not online to fix it or simply forget. I know that's gonna happen, I just hope it happens to my opponents, not my clan

It's very simple. Design two war bases, and rotate between them. If you forget to switch them, no biggie--It's still a war base.

An easy fix is locking war bases after 12 hours- 12 hours to model your base, 12 for your opponents to devise their strategy.

Great Idea. I hope SC sees this

12 hours is not long enough to allow for players in different time zones to prepare. 24 hours is still necessary in my opinion.
I am in a clan with people in opposite time zones to myself, and they always start war just after I have gone to bed.
My mornings are busy, and by the time I log on, it would be too late for me.
Prep day will still be needed for checking out the levels of opponents defences and troop levels, maybe making last minute changes to your own base (whichever layout you choose as suitable) and planning which clan members should attack which enemy based on defence levels.
If the enemy changes their layout one minute before war day starts, so what? You can do the same thing. It's all about strategy. May the best man/woman win!

I think 24 hours is more then plenty to make a clan strategy and build two armies to attack with.
You will still be able to tell what level their defenses are and what level their troops are so I don't think it makes a negative difference. At best it just means quicker strategy is needed. Players will have to be smarter clans more organized. Sounds like a more fun war.

I live en Denmark and the majority of my clan lives in USA. War search is started when it is midnight for me. When a match is found I'm fast asleep. I wake up, get ready for work, go to work, pick up kid (sometimes)/shopping/make dinner/pass time with the family, eat, get the kid ready for bed, tuck him in, wash the dishes and what else is in the plans that day. Usually at around 7 or 8 pm (in Denmark) I can clash. So with 4-5 hours left I can prep for war.

So just because you might have the time and gets impatient that the prep day is 24 hours it doesn't mean that that everyone else can find the time to clash 24/7.

The world doesn't revolve around you, you know.

Totally agree with you bro

I work for a Danish company so totally know what you on though.....Denmark rocks

Or you can just look at the base when the war starts lol.

Hey there, I just noticed this and it is pretty phatetic. With the new feature where you can save multiple war bases and switch whenever the war preparation day is useless. People will have one base design, let's say it is very weak against air, then, roght before war day, troops are ready and you are ready to attack your enemy changes his base to a strong anit-Air base. This basically means the war preparation is useless since u will come unprepared anyways. I think this will ruin alot of planning wich kinda was the plan with clan wars - to plan your attack with your clan since u can watch the base u are going to attack.

I see this as a bug or an issue, and I think it is simple to solve it. The war base you have 12h before preparation day end gets locked in, that way you atleast have 12h to plan and train up the right troops and spells and 12h to change layout if you want to. I seriously think this should be implented quickly before it ruins the fun of wars, building an all dragon comp and then having to dump it is neither cheap and takes ages to retrain a right war army.

I don't know if other people have noticed this yet, anyway if you have a better idea then mine make sure to drop it below. Let supercell see this - because this will cause problems and a lot of rage, rule one of running a company - Make sure your customers are happy. I still think the update is amazing and the village saver tool is anamazing feature wich saves alot of time.

Thanks for the update Supercell, merry christmas to all of you forumers out there!

Clash on,
