I am pretty hard core when it comes to farming on clash of clans, I constantly have gems that I have paid money to get, to use for boosting barracks.
I have been testing out over the past few weeks and came up with a conclusion or a theory, which I feel is a shady business decision.
First off, I am townhall 10, I'm working on maxing everything out that I can, I use the popular BARCH farming method 2 rax barbs, 2 rax of archers.
When I first started farming, day 1 I experienced my very first time getting the break timer after 8 or so straight hours of farming With boosted barracks, I gained about 2 to 3 mill gold and elixir per hour, the more I farmed no matter what league I was in or dropped or climbed to, the loot just kept getting less and less.
Long story short; is there somewhere in the coding of clash of clans. If player [A] farms for [X] amount of hours, chance of gaining better loot drops down [Y] %. If player [A] quits playing game for [X] days, he recovers [Y]% at gaining better loot, to lure player [A] back into maybe being interested in CoC long enough to purchase more gems.
I have tested it out where I would go crazy nuts frenzy and farm for hours so I could get enough loot and I'm having to boost barracks multiple times per day just to try and get 2 to 3 mill gold/elixir, I quit for a few days, came back to the game and for the first few hours it was good, but then went right back to being ♥♥♥♥ loot again right after I would start another boost, and that 2 hour boost would be technically wasted.
My opinion on the matter from Supercells standpoint is if players aren't getting as much loot after farming X hours, and need more gold for an upgrade we will gem the other gold (which in my opinion is a huge rip off), thus making the company more money than they really need (greedy).
From a players standpoint I understand this becomes frustrating, because rather than having to only play for 2 hours on boost to get an upgrade, I am now playing for 4 to 6 hours trying to get an upgrade, and so many days/weeks have passed and now I feel like I am getting nowhere.
My question to you Supercell is this, if you will even answer, honestly.
If someone who knew what they were doing or looking for, looked through your APK files, would they happen to find such a formula that was put above? And before you or anyone else says "It is not even possible to do such a thing!" It is possible, or else you wouldn't be able to have it so that everytime we upgrade our TH the loot gets worse.
What is your opinion? And can we get this so much attention that maybe Supercell will step up and give us an honest answer.
Thanks,
Trax
