Update 01/07 - FEEDBACK thread!

How can a th 8 like me revenge an almost maxed th 9?

A TH8 shouldn't be able to revenge an almost maxed TH9 unless the TH9 has been badly designed, or has been left long enough to have lots ofloot in collectors.

To completely have done away with zapping storages and with poison spells available, lightning has very little use to anyone, anymore.

I disagree completely.

For people who only have one lightning spell, they are at a level where they can't get poison, so it will still be mainly used for zapping CC troops, as it always was.

For those with more than 1 spell, lightning was always used (and still will be IMO) mainly to zap defences - 2 for a mortar, or 3 for an AD.

I have rarely seen anybody use more than 1 lightning for attacking CC troops.

Yes, some people did use it a lot for zapping, but I never really understood why.

Go create a base with a ring around the middle and watch attack after attack circle your central compartment, failing to get to middle! this is not fine, there is nothing to learn to play with, all troops should have one aim, and one aim alone, get to the middle of base, .

That has never been true of any troop. Which is why my "ring" base has always worked very well in war

No troop has ever been set to target the TH, or to target "the middle", so why do you thni they "should" do so now?

Go create a base with a ring around the middle and watch attack after attack circle your central compartment, failing to get to middle! this is not fine, there is nothing to learn to play with, all troops should have one aim, and one aim alone, get to the middle of base, not a merry go around, it seems the AQ does anything but go to middle, even if you have a jump,spell and have broken the walls - chief aim seems to be to clean from outside and get to middle.

LOL.

So globally your vision of the game is that you should be able to drop all of your troops in a corner and wait for them to destroy the base as all troops should aim to the center. Is it really what you are awaiting from a STRATEGY game ?

I have been attacking lots of those ring bases. I never had any issue getting my troops to the center of the base, but you need to first break the ring for this to happen, which requires a minimum strategy (wow, this comes back again).

btw, if all troops are aiming to the center as you state, maybe I should simply put my TH in a corner, and you would then complain again that those stupid troops are going to the center instead of taking the TH ;-)

Try dropping to gold 2. I'm a th8 and having success their. If you for some reason get smashed in gold 2 by th9's all the time then the trick is to not have like over 2 million gold and elixer at once if you can help it and not to have 25-30k dark elixer along with over 2million gold and/or over 2 million elixer. Why would a th9 want to raid you if you don't have tons of more then one resource especially if your town hall is outside and not trapped. Dropping to gold 2 and not having tons of loot and having your town hall outside and un trapped is a good way to keep strong attacks from finding you and it deters them from attacking you. Don't always believe people that say there's tons of th10's and th9's farming in low leagues and that it's impossible or at least hard for th8's to raid and hold loot.

Well, Rocket, there you have hit on my problem...as I am just a few wall segments away from going to TH9, my elixir vats are full, and my dark tank is (was) getting there (I was sitting on about 65k before the update; after upgrading Poison and Earthquake I am still at almost 30k...so my max of 1800 is on offer for a TH9). Like I said before, I left the Gold leagues because of TH9's and TH10's eating me alive. So it's not that I'm listening to people say it, I have actually experienced it. But thank you for your advice!

And before anyone says it, yes, I could go to TH9 now. But I'm a little compulsive about finishing everything at one TH before going up...and I'm a little afraid of going up, since the TH10's would now have me very much on their radar.

I've been playing for less than 3 months and love it however the latest update has made it less enjoyable.


Barching cost increase is fine for me, just keep searching longer for a higher value base. Even before the update I'd happily spend over 10k in gold clicking 'next' again and again for the 'right' base.

AQ AI change doesn't affect me as I'm TH 7 so if I do gain the AQ I will only know the new AI and learn to use it.

What irks me is the WB AI. Diagram below and I kid you not about this. My WBers breach the outer wall labelled A. I then send in another WBer and instead of running directly forward to wall labelled B, the WBer goes to point X to plant the bomb. A WT* moment when it first happened. AI doesn't seem consistent or at least it has purposely been 'randomised' within the scope of the 'random' response function.






A ) --------------------(breach in wall gap) X----------------------

B)--------------------------------------------------------------------



As I said it still enjoy the game just not as much now.

Since the update, this game doesnt make fun anymore. A Lot of high lvl th 8, 9, and even 10, have come down to the silver leagues, and are guess what, raping it. I trink, ist just because of the really totaly cool idea to make storages immun to Spells. Lightning on storages wasnt the Gentleman way to get Mojo, Butter it was fair, because everyone was able to Do it.
Thank you! Nice Move.

No, it wasnt fair if you ask the anti zappers.

But I think its bad parenting of SC.

Like when you go to the stores to buy something.
There is always that lil kid that wants ice cream.
The parents say no, So the kid start whining and screaming till the parents say yes.
What did the kid learn? That they will get their way by whining and screaming.

Thats bad parenting.

Storages shouldnt be immune, at least not in a revenge.
Bring back the order in this chaos

Troop AI is better for sure. Esp Golems that dont get stuck on walls when thier target gets destroyed. Lets them actually do thier job and tank. Saw this many replays in war!

AQ i dont like as much, as she is way more likey to not help in the core and just pull a pekka. I wish the Aq would be switched back, really we spend SOOOOOOOOOOO much time on her and have to sit out wars while she is on UG bc SC wants those gems. This is irritating. Mine is lvl 25 and now i feel like i have a long range pekka.

Storage Immunity! Yes, its about time! Thanks for making ppl actually learn how to farm and not pull a sissy move. Yes we all got beat up by bigger guys, its part of the game for all the ppl crying about how unfair it is now and how u cant revenge ppl.

Spells, less time, pre trainable and DE spells AWESOME X10!

nerfing Barch by uping building xp BOOOOO, BC some ppl didnt like thier base baing 1 starred in champs? Maybe they should have a better base. Bad enough that the building xp was raised to ofset this, MUCH WORSE that they now cost more. BOOOOOOO X100 on this...


Overall I like some additions, but ruining ppls farming and making the AQ kinda suck after all that work take away. Glad most of my def is max and i have all lavas as now its harder on lower ppl to catch up.

What really sucks is when the golems leave the area to find another target, but all the troops they were tanking for are still in the area they were in and they get destroyed. Yeah, that's definitely better than the golems staying and pounding on the walls to get in the closer targets.

Ok, so I realize that a TH8 complaining about something is getting old hat. However, I feel it needs to be said...

I have been hovering around Crystal I-II (about 2300 or so trophies) for the last couple of months while I finish out skulls before heading to TH9. Most times I will get a snipe, occasionally, a TH9 will come down and flatten me...SOP, no complaints. However, since the last update, I am getting pounded by folks up in Master I-II. Not only that, but I don't see any TH7 or TH8 on offer when I attack anymore (I kid you not, the last one was literally 2 weeks ago). It's all TH9 and TH10 now.

If it was 2 weeks ago, then it was before the update

But seriously, I have never seen many TH7s in Crystal, and am still seeing as many, and a fair number of TH8s. I probably average 20 or so "next" when raiding, and at least 4-5 of those will be TH8, and on average about 1-2 TH7 (but hardly ever with enough loot).

I thought the matchmaking was supposed to prefer to pair us with our own TH level within our league/trophy range,

No, TH level is completely irrelevant.

It matches more or less randomly with people within 200 trophies of you, taking no account of anything but trophy count.

How long after the attack are you checking, because people can move up pretty fast if they are trophy hunting, or if they are being regularly attacked for no stars.
