    Give it back!

    I need to be able to upgrade my walls with elixir... you see, I used elixir to upgrade from lv6 to lv7, but now it's even more expensive going from lv7 to lv8 and you've taken it away. Why has this been done?

    I don't care about the random statements I got from the alleged 'help and support' such as 'making it more balanced all round', I don't care about the extra lv12 on resource collectors - it makes very little, to insignificant, difference, and I also don't see the problem in allowing the feature earlier than lv8 - lv9.

    All I have asked is 'why?' i.e. what purpose was achieved in changing it... can I get a straight answer? please?
    Is it because you want people to buy gems for gold to do their walls??? It's a business after all, but is that the straight truth of it? and will someone from Supercell say so?

    I'm getting cheesed off with this so much now, and surely, making the game a less enjoyable experience should be the furthest thing from your goals.

    The wall change was obviously implemented to hinder you and only you.

    The straight answer for the change was that unrestricted dumping of elixir almost killed the economy. There was no elixir, none. As in nonexistent. To much for th8 is better than none for anyone to even bother attacking. Many people got thru walls without using elixir, and you will too.

    Its a bit strange to ask a question and then say you dont care for that type of answer.

    Its coming across more as tell me I'm right and thats it.

    It seems you are consistent with not caring for other reasons because there have been lots of threads requesting it be lowered and the pros and cons of it.

    But if you care to read on I will let you know my thoughts:

    The reason given for raising elixir wall upgrades was complaints from other players saying there is a loot shortage of elixir because everyone keeps using it up. (I never noticed from my own raids)

    The fact that SC did start this after lvl 6 shows it was not for more money as it was a fair starting point right in the middle area and it was an introduction to make wall building easier. It would have been harder for us had they left it as just gold.

    Letting it happen for lvl 9 bricks makes more sense as it costs 1 million per brick and therefore you would have to save up for it and would then mean you are a better loot base to raid. Also level 9 bricks can only be accessed from th9 where the costs of upgrading is huge and would mean more needed to be saved and given more priority by most before walls and therfore more loot to raid away from. Great as it is for new th7 and th8 the upgrade costs its still a lot easier for this level guys to earn enough in a day from some good raids and ones own loot harvest to be happy to spend the vast majority of their loot on walls knowing its fairly easy to make back.

    It's better for you now to have lower limit but you would suffer greatly when you do go up TH levels and are completely slowed down by not getting enough elixir to upgrade your troops and base when everything costs so much more.

    So you are like a little kid saying "I want it and I don't care". If you told your parents you wanted something expensive and they told you they could not afford it, would you stamp your foot and say you don't care?

    Good thing for the rest of us that your individual needs were not one of the design criteria when the game was put together. Or patched.

    I think you should have your answer by now........ it's for the greater good of the economy. The amount of raidable elixir was so low for certain levels, SC risked losing a large population of players. Bad for business.

    As mentioned, not too long ago, people got by with using ONLY gold to upgrade walls.

    I farmed ALL my legos with gold only, since it was before elixir became an option.

    You already have it better off then me and a lot of others on here, and we never took a hissy fit the way you are.

    Just man up. Get'r done.
