who are we?

Clash biggest weakness is lack of identity and in game communication. This game really evaluationized the cell phone gaming world. Can only ride popularity and narrow updates for so long. Game will die out soon if individual identity and better lines of in game communication aren't established. The blue print has been set for lucrative optional pay to play games.
This is not a suggestion just a statement

Clan chat... Global chat... Clan mail... I dont get your so called "statement".

The game is called clash of "clans". Not clash of "identity and talking to people".

This topic needs More Cowbell!

Please come up with an idea for better communications. The several ideas before have been successfully ruled out.

I do believe using secondary mobile apps for keeping in touch with clanmates is a bit over-reaching. Infact we use Group-me, FB Messenger/Group, and Whatsapp all at the same time in our clan. It is a serious issue.

One just can't ignore real world priorities for a game, and if all the communication were in-game it would be so much more simpler, easier and convenient.

Specially a design where one could simply paint targets and call dibs, and only the leaders could modify it. This would save a ton of unnecessary messaging.
A few simple design changes would make this game a lot better.

As far as preserving one's identity is concerned, not much bothered about that atm.

-Can't send a msg to an individual player
-Can't see members in chat rooms (only the names of desperate people trying to find a date)
-Can't choose a global
-Can`t actually identify players except trying to compare stats because about 50,000 people with the same name (clan tag good update)
-No separate chat rooms for leaders/elders
-Can't locate someone again if you were talking to them in global and get disconnected


Do you get my so called statement?
Many people want to see stuff like this

Just put out the message in the clan and that whoever sees him on has to inform him. Or send a clan mail thru the co's.

-Can't choose a global
Can't be so picky now. Randomness is very integral to the game, just the way you can't farm anyone you want. It's random.

-Can`t actually identify players except trying to compare stats because about 50,000 people with the same name (clan tag good update)
Clan tag solves most issues. Player based searches shall provoke stalking, very unhealthy.

-No separate chat rooms for leaders
Every decision must be transparent, that way people would want to stay, and feel like a part of the clan. Am not saying take a vote or something, not at all. Just that discussing in the clan chat is better since there is nothing to hide.

-Can't locate someone again if you were talking to them in global and get disconnected.
Yeah. Been there. Part of the game. But hey, meet someone new again soon!

Here is why it's all ruled out.

Like I said, the game is not about private messaging people. It's about clans, hence why you have a global chat, and a clan chat.

d11, seen other posts of yours and always well thought out. Just saying other games are starting to evolve and clash has got to stay ahead or will lose steam. Ask R.I.M (blackberry the once juggernaut of cell phones) a prime example of product that was so innovative but refused to except what people wanted.
Other games are already chipping away and not too long before other games provide what people want not excuses why they shouldn't.
You know people aren't willing to except "it's alright" when there is something better.
This game is great, but the updates arent really expanded the game as wide as it should. Other games will.

Let me just put it out there. Once a Clasher, always a Clasher.

Like i don't regret enough playing Clash in the first place, i'd never switch to another game. Maybe another hobby though?
Anyhow, people play for different reasons.

As far as improving communications is concerned, you'd have to come up with better ideas than the one's already ruled out. If you keep asking for what's not gonna be given, your voice shall never be heard.

Like i've said before, they should implement ideas which can lessen out-of-game communications which could be implemented in game(it's impossible to eliminate secondary communication).

There is some interesting stuff there but nothing that is substantial enough to rule out identity and more chat options.
Honestly I have no real authority on the subject other than a fellow clasher who likes the game, but I've found myself going to other games with more options as mentioned. This game has so many bad, lude, racist, dirty players because there is no consequence or reason not to be except for decency which they have none of.
Why not be able to be able to identity cool players and be able to track progess withouthaving to use outside applications?

Look, I get what you're saying. But the reality is, the game is called clash of clans. Not clash of players. They have said from the start, they dont not want player to player messaging, it's even in their terms of service. We have two chat features, and there really is no need to for a player to player chat, if you have something to hide from your clan, perhaps you shouldn't be in the clan, or perhaps other members shouldn't be.
I understand where you're coming from, but I've played for 29 months, and the game has evolved HEAPS. And these minor updates turn into something huge. 20 small updates has completely changed the fundamentals of the game. Practically everything about the game has been tweaked, changed made new over this time. And it will continue to for many more updates.
