    Sneak Peaks - Too Revealing?

    I have noticed the last couple of updates that the sneak peeks aren't necessarily sneak peeks. When they are all released, we pretty much know everything the next update will entail.

    I, for one, would prefer to be surprised by the updates. Sneak Peek implies that we are only seeing a glimpse of a much bigger update. I like the sneak peeks, but I believe they should literally only be a sneak peek of what's to come.

    For example, this past update was summed up by the sneak peeks. I was expecting a few more "big" updates to the game, but the only real updates were in fact the sneak peeks. This creates tension when the update comes out because I was expecting much more. I am happy with the updates, but the sneak peek implies there are much more to come. All I'm saying is, they should limit what they reveal in the sneak peeks and forum exclusives. They also need to figure out how the App Store updates are leaking to the public, I found out about the level 13 cannon 2 weeks before it came out....

    Anyone else smell what I'm stepping in? I was particularly surprised they didn't address the xbow glitch, and I was also surprised they didn't allow upgrading heroes to be used in war.

    SC has almost always done this with their sneaks, so I'm not quite sure why you would "expect" a grander release with the actual update.

    Heroes should not be allowed to be used in war while upgrading. It would be a huge hit to their gem revenue. Almost my whole clan uses gems exclusively for boosting barracks' and speeding the completion of heroes for war (we have just under 120 War wins). I for one would be pretty aggravated by such an update.

    Speeding the completion of heroes for war? I'm talking about if you are upgrading your King from level 10 to 11, and if they are upgrading, you cannot use them in war. I don't think this would severely affect their gemming revenue. It would encourage players to upgrade heroes, use them more, and make clan wars more fair. It would be more fair because not all clans gem their heroes, and they do not deserved to be punished for upgrading their heroes.

    lol im in the same boat- we war once a week and I am on the schedule of putting my hero down as soon as I finish my second attack. yes I gem the time on the hero for war and boost barracks- of course I would welcome that addition to save me 5 bucks a week.


    But back on topic- I like the format of the sneak peeks. I would probably wish they kept a few things hidden though.

    Let me predict to you the next big update:

    new troop level
    new def level

    Here you go, the sneak peek for the next two years.

    Now you can stop reading the forums ...

    We don't get exact stats/price in the sneak peaks. We don't get full details. It's something we discover once the update is released. If the sneak peak was just "new clan levels", nobody would have been excited about that. But knowing that you can request every 10 minutes, now we want this update as soon as possible.
