R.I.P. Farming :(

[dahimi]

Is it just me or most of you "farmers" just keep complaining all the time??? It was your decision to farm so stop crying about it now

We have reason to. For many, farming is what makes the game fun because we want fast resources in the least time and that isn't possible if you go for cups.

Making a "decision to farm" doesn't really play into it. We could decide immediately to go for cups and we can get them. It's just not fun for us to do so at this time because the incentive system to gain cups is non existent.

Why is that ♥♥? If hes got enough time to do that he dont need any gems for doing what hes doing in 1800 range!!!

30 minutes to train an army capable of wining means he could attack cca 48 times a day, if he would do that he could win even much more than 2M!

Thank you for a voice of reason. And definitely don't play all 24 hrs a day! Just attack twice an hour during working hours. Nice little short breaks during the day keeps my sanity at work.

Attacking 48 times a day at 30 minutes an attack is not the voice of reason. Neither is attacking during work hours. You may be fortunate enough to be able to do that, many people can't. So let's assume that people sleep for 8 hrs and work for 8hrs with a 1hr lunch. People typically spend an hour or so in the morning getting ready/going to work and a similar amount of time going home. That's 19 hours gone. Let's say you attack twice during lunch and 2 more times throughout the day during breaks. Let's add one in the morning when people wake up and one more maybe when they leave work.

When people get home they talk to their loved ones, etc.

Assuming a typical work day of 8-5, getting up at 7 (fairly liberal really), getting home at 6, and going to bed around midnight. I figure a person may have 5 hours or so to play CoC assuming they don't do much else.

That's 16 attacks a day. That's more along the lines of reason and still quite a bit of play honestly.

I don't believe a person should have to play that much to keep up with 5 builders. I think a couple hours is reasonable and the true voice of reason.

Well i dont knowwhat is your progress in the game, but in my case since every upgrade takes at least five days, i dont really need resources that fast.
Cups are useless, I'll give you that but at the same time, with high trophies you can easily find good clan with good troops (its better to get full cc of archers lvl 5 than bunch of mix crappy troops) but thats my side of view.

Last but not least, people complaining around here are mostly farmers, as i said, it was decision that you guys made so stop crying about it now, there is plenty threads similar to this one (if not same) so go and look for it before you open new senseless thread like this.

I would agree with Dahimi.

Doesnt take a 24/7 mentalitity to make strides in this game. I really didnt gem at all except recently to secure 4th and 5th builder. I really didnt have to do it to be honest. I was past level 50 FYI before I spent a nickle on gems.

Sounds about right Dahimi. For everyone that was fortunate enough to farm at 0 cups for a few weeks before SuperCell nerfed it, then good for you. Since you can't hit 0 anymore, and you'll do nothing but run into very high level players with well protected bases, you won't get the same results in that range any longer.

In my opinion, farming at 0 cups is dead (unless you have A LOT of patience) but, playing the game and obtaining loot at other trophy ranges is not - this should be the takeaway. And, let's be honest, dropping trophies constantly, staying logged in to avoid getting dropped on, etc, etc is just boring. I honestly don't know how some players continue to do it, it's boring. SuperCell bets on your inability to be patient, hence encouraging gem use.

If you can't "farm" to you liking, aka ez-mode mass goblin raiding super low level nubs with 180k+ in their stores, then either gem up or find another suitable range where you'd able to get gold and elixir for upgrades. Complaining doesn't do any good, we're all in the same boat. The only difference is some people adapt, some don't.

I said he could attack 48 times a day, no that hes doing that! You guys need to understand sarcasm and stop being so serious about every sentence you see

hough im off, before it starts again xD

Clans are what you make of them. Having more trophies helps to get into a higher trophy clan, my clan is not one of those but we have a policy of only donating archers. This isn't really much of an incentive to gain trophies honestly.

Of course people that are complaining are farmers. Supercell is specifically targeting them with silent updates that make looting harder. Before most of the threads were started by people complaining about the game not being fair.

Realistically you can view all of these "farming threads" as complaints about a lack of incentive to gain cups and a resource shortage. Both are items that really really need to be addressed.

Sarcasm? Your point was that people can attack more and make more resources. I'm pointing out that what you're saying isn't really that realistic. So unless you're attempting to support the idea that people can't attack often enough to get the resources they need, the sarcasm is honestly lost on me.

[sneakymaori]

Yes, they did. I really feel bad for the TH9s that have to go through this

Yup lvl 9 TH was a huge mistake for my playing strategy / basic enjoyment / now it's 100% work for me.


Hence Ive wound back my in game time considerably.

warm regards, sneaky.
