Loot, League Bonuses and Trophy Offers <-- Discuss it HERE!

[Vikky]

sc thinks new TH & new hero and some other stuff is gonna cover & make this update great, they are grossly wrong...

Even the New th11 are gonna face ♥♥♥♥ as they upgrade...

Disastrous upgrade & nothing much they can bring which will cover for the negative changes they have already announced.

They are trying their best to stop bots, unfortunately they have instead done enough to make even normal players stop.

even with bots the game is going great...

dont fix what aint broken.

SC when you look back dont think this update was the reason the game fell, it happened after the Japanse took over the stake & there were shift in policies... after that it took many many bad updates to wipe the goodwill & fame this game already had...

In my clan of 30, I have 2 ids & so do other 3 guys... we do war of 10 cause 20 have opted out, half have lost interest & half are upgrading heroes, the upgrading heroes cycle went so long & they opted out of wars that now they too have genuinely lost interest...

Guys like us got so badly addicted since the start that for long we kept going on thinking something will make the devs go on the path the game was till 2013 end... unfortunately each update was lamer than the previous... now they have started calling tweaks to game update...

Edit: mods or SC implant ofcourse will come & pacify you guys...

• Town Halls contain a share of loot equal to one Gold Storage, one Elixir Storage and 1/4 Dark Elixir storage

certainly this can't be correct. the town hall will contain 1/4 of the de storage... so my current 72k de will make 18k available to be stolen in my town hall......


this can't be right

These game changes are not at all beneficial to the players, they are only about the gems purchased. The economics of it all is extremely broken. They could have easily implemented the defender antes up the win bonus if a raid is under 30% destruction but they didn't. They created a brand new model for something that no one was complaining about. Their goal was not to stop TH sniping, their goal was to force players to boost barracks and buy their guard for gems because their revenues have been declining.

Their revenue model is what was broken not the game play model. The players had auto-negotiated a truce model in a war game, first of its kind in any war game, which is the TH snipe for a shield in return for 1000 of each resource, the win bonus plus a finite amount of trophies.

The model was beyond good, what was bad for Supercell is that no one needed their overpriced 100/150/200 gem shields. Like all businesses that have decreasing revenues, instead of developing innovative new features to attract players, they are changing the model in hopes to capture their lost revenue. Supercell might be a great video game developer but it doesnt make them good businessmen. What they needed to realize is that by giving more they will get more...not by taking away, and their proportionate minimal increase in league win bonus is not giving it is actually taking. (For example in candy crush, a really successful gaming company, your friends can give you lives, or you can spin the wheel for gold bars redeemable for lives or the specials they run sometimes for unlimited lives for a certain amount of time). This is what is broken in the COC model. They are forcing out player innovation from the game. They are forcing and almost dictating troops composition and player behavior.

As for stop the complaining comment, this is not complaining its providing critical constructive criticism to a company who has been making 1B$ revenue a quarter from a loyal client base.

You can support their decisions, that is wonderful, but telling someone not to complain because they will eventually balance the game is simply bad business.

This statement is false and TONS of players were disappointed with this model and were threatening to quit or stop purchasing gems. Supercell had to weigh their options: leave it and wait for the game to die out over time or change it, make a huge game changing move and appeal the ones who are active and so passionate about this game. You cannot rightfully speak for everyone in the game because I personally believe this needed to be changed.

Barring significant changes in the war system, does anyone else see this update prompting a surge in war farming clans? Hey, if it's tougher to get the loot in the normal attack realm, go where you can supplement it. And more war farming clans is exACTly what the game needs.....

the supercell would not run the risk of losing so many players , for sure this system will be better. First test. Before getting whining.

There's so little point in commenting on any of these mega-merge rant threads, but here goes....

I don't know what it will be like.
But I'll find out first.

Seems to be a lot of half-blind hate. In a similar fashion to: loot is already terrible, I don't find nearly enough dead collector bases and that's the only thing I attack.

[R0ver]

Surely if you want to encorage defensive play then rewarding it with say, hmmm, i don't know, maybe A DEFENCE BONUS AND FREE BASE RESET might work better than to punish mercilessly anyone who doesnt adjust to you wishes? Or is that just too simple?

You're entitled to your opinion. We shall see.

So if the TH is now a storage building, and goblins do double damage to it, does that mean also that it will no longer be affected by spells such as lightning and earthquake like it's other storage counterparts? Same question for the cc.
I can't seem to find anyone discussing that.
