The FARMING MODE!

[Alex3745]

Sorry, but I will repeat again. My suggesting intents to incentive high TH farmers to go up in leagues. There is no other way of making this than given them some benefits for that.

Secondly, the game is so great because of the masses playing it. Making easier for them to farm will not jeopardize the game. They still need to wait for 1.9 years to finish all the updates using 5 builder nonstop (or gem it)!

If SC just kills the easy farming this will take away the mediocre player. This is negative because we need as much diversity in the game as possible.

There is an incentive for going up in leagues. Go to champs 3 get 1hr village guard and anyone will farm nice and easy with the bonus loot 200k gold/200k lix/1220 dark. Add that to a meager 300k/300k/2500 raid do it 3 or 4 times per sheild and your laughing.

With one?
'Newbie Catch' on Post New Thread Buttons that I had up for ages in my signature.
Personal Break Clarification and Transparency the current one in my signature, which I really need to replace. (Edit: Removed. Got tired of seeing it.)
Purposes Built Bases for Attack Practice which I've semi-shamless advertised for a short while because I got no response, good or bad, and can't just bump w/o breaking forum rules. (will likely be dropped in a few days if still no interest)

The first two were in my signature, which of course will be everywhere, since it gets updated in every post, regardless of post age.

Also, the easiest to link ideas threads are unfortunately only my own threads I've made, via my checking my profile. I'd love to have a bookmark/favorite thread feature so I don't have a browser bookmark folder full of links that only is acceptable mostly in one spot (my computer or smartphone) and could possibly share what idea threads of interest I've ran into. Yes, I have an idea thread for that too, but will not shamelessly link it as well.

I'm aware of what I'm doing, and only 'advertise' where it is mostly fitting. Not about to post unrelated or grossly unsolicited links everywhere. :eek: That'd just be purely spamming, and no one wants that, and is against forum rules. You don't have to click on the links, you know. But obviously I would like it if you did.

Come on man! I agree with you... however just look the many angry players out there. I do think their complains on farming are unfair. My suggestion is not about make farm easier, but about to incentive player with high TH to be on higher leagues and, most importantly, to give a response to may angry players out there. You know... to show that SC care about them.

Best, Ricardo.

Me too, I just don't think this is needed due to it being "unnecessary". But to be honest, whats killing for them? The fact that collector raids are gone or something and they need to learn to attack storage bases? To be honest, I'm having a bit of difficulty farming. All they gotta do is practise using gibarch (highly recommended) and get those storages. Barch was too much for SC if you know what I'm saying. It took barely any skill and resources.

I.. uh... still can't see it working as well. Maybe I'm just reading it poorly, since I am having a hard time clearly picturing it.

But my point is to not make it too easy, since that could backfire.

I'll have to read this later. It just isn't 'clicking' for me right now.

Hey Warren,

New day, fresh mind... maybe I can clarify some points now and promote a productive discussion :-)

Let me divide my arguments in different points in order to check if we agree or disagree in each of them. And I will also divide my arguments into the practical arguments and the more subjective ones.

Starting with the issues and moving on to my suggestion and practical arguments.

Issue 1: high level TH are dropping trophies in the search of dead bases.

We can already here disagree if this is a issue or not. However I tend to classify it as a real problem in the game. The situation in the bronze ans silver league now is many players drop cups in your base. And come on, it is pretty the reason: all of them are searching abandoned or rushed THs. If you think about that the game have a challenge which consists in defending successfully against a N number of player, this trophy dropping things sound as a ♥♥♥♥♥.

My suggestion: introduce in the game a new feature in the game that I am here calling the FARMING MODE. And before I explain it, I want so emphasize that the main goal of my suggestion is to unequivocally encourage farm minded high TH level players to go up on trophies.

How it works: Instead of a "Next" button we would be able to set a "Push" (the same way it is now) or a "Farm" button. This new Farm Mode would: 1- allow to search in the match-making with equal probability any base from our current league a below (the higher weight for TH of same level keep the same). 2-it would give ANY trophy and, immortality 3- have a higher weight in the match-making for bases with high available loot.

Now, before I comment on the benefits of this new feature, let me debunk the first criticism that most people may have by reading up to here: "This will make Farming too easy!".

I say it wont because: 1 - SC will have the power to control how easy and how hard it will be by fine-tuning the match-making weight as they find it fits and 2 - this system will keep the current weight in the match-making for TH of same level. In the Farming Mode the players will still keep finding TH of the same level more often than not. The advantage to the farmer is that they will find more often Storage Raids and they will have chances to find their beloved abandoned bases in any league as far they keep up in the cups.

The benefits:
1- Farmers would climb in cups.
2- More attacks across the leagues. (I am a full TH 10 sitting the gold league and no one attack my base because it is too difficult for the local trophy pusher and farmer. But my base could be nice to farm from a player in Titan).
3- Trophies would have a values for any kind of player.

Maybe one criticism could be: "It is unfair for the defender".

My answer is: there is no difference for the defender to lose loot for a strong TH that doped trophies or to the same TH but instead siting in the Titan league. They will lose anyway. And furthermore, with the new shield system (which I loved) this player can recover from the lost.

I would go to my subjective arguments, but I now I have to league. I write it here late.

Best, Ricardo.

Ricardo is too.

In the Farming mode, the raids could be restricted to opponents of same or higher TH. No more crying of been unfair to get rip from higher TH.

Ruled out, you can't filter what townhall level to attack or loot either.

[Alex3745]

If your a th10 sitting in gold no wonder your nextung so much to find loot. Should be min crystal1 where for find more th9/10s. Best would be masters 1 or champs 3 for th10s now. Cook up a war army and hit em hard for everything. Will not take long to find a th10 with full storages to victimize. With league bonus and loot raided should have min 5-600k gold/5-600k lix/4-5k DE. But if your expecting to barch still that's not going to happen up there.

it is not about to make easier raids for farmers, rater to to solve the problem of trophy dropping. See my post above about the Clarifications.
