    Angry Kill your cash cow with an awful updare, a few weeks before a new release?

    How many of you think this is all a deliberate ploy to get Clash players to try the new game.

    this would be the worst tactic ever conceived by humans
    why would entirely dissatisfied players move onto a new game by the same company.
    this doesnt make any sense whatsoever

    does anyone even think before they type around here?

    I was totally thinking this after the announcement this morning! haha......

    And then when everyone is hooked on Clash Royale, they'll finally implement tweaks on COC to bring back the fun factor and double their revenue from gems spent on both games overnight.

    Gotta love it

    Dedicated Clash fans move over to the new Clash derivative while hoping to a hope COC gets fixed in the meantime.Not inconceivable. Sorry you lack the brains to grasp this.

    I think its the biggest Marketing blunder by SC. Very bad timing !
    Perhaps they thought they were too smart to get things done via youtuber, much cheaper(free) + larger audience (CoC player base) + avoid expensive ads.

    In a nutshell, a NEW game was launched with 2 tickets to Finland. Wow. You sure are a miser Mr SC

    Different games for different people. I don't think they are competing with each other. That's just bad business. But since they have a vision for Clash that so many people disagree with, they may as well try to net some of the players who clearly don't want to play a game like Clash2.0 anymore.

    Bare in mind most casual players dissatisfied by the update don't even think "Supercell" when they play COC. They pickup the game, play a few hours and put it down. This is evident in the number of fresh spawns joining after the update.

    Kids for example will have just got sad about constantly losing loot, go on appstore and boom....oh shiny....new clash of clans......download and viola..........

    Then they announce a character from Royale will be added to the COC rooster as a new hero or whatever and boom.....they go back

    It was most likely never planned this way, but I can see it happening............

    This would make no sense. Why would you kill the game that was grossing the most money in both google play and the app store to get people to try out a risky new game? If that was truly intended,
