Star Bonus, Treasury, Loot Cart and more!

[Jaelle68]

2. The bonus paid out when you are attacked feels to me to be more of a losers bonus than anything else. The more I loose the greater the bonus.

Can you imagine the situation where we have the opposite of placing our TH outside our base to one where all of the collectors and storages are placed outside with the Town Hall securely defended inside. The more we loose, up to the cap limit, the more loot is transferred into our secure treasury. We should easily get a shield and the attackers get our Loot and their bonus and cups.

A reversed Town Hall Snipping.

I tend to agree with this. That could indeed create a whole new loophole

I would prefer to win a defense bonus as a reward for a good defense. And I really mean a good defense, not a "clever-defense-loose-willingly-30%-to-get-a-shield". Still not happy with this 30% double rule. I don't mean I don't currently get shield when successfully attacked, that's not it. I manage with ou without the shield (well...until up to 3 millions gold saved and there I get trashed, can't save more since the update). What I mean is that the concept of designing a weaker base to be able to save some loot behind a shield still doesn't feel right to me... Not to mention the distasteful 29% serial attacks...

Hmmm it's a start. Looking forward to seeing this in action. Hopefully it comes together well

DItto, it's a start, but not the thing to end all problems.

Yea appreciate the effort but not enough. A daily login bonus and a small return on the 3 times I get attacked a day mean almost nothing. Let's see what happens though, maybe I'll still be around

The game have gone from: Active players vs. retired players to active players vs. active players. It used to be kind of PvE. Now it's genuine PvP. And some players just don't like a challenge. The idea of them having to actually think while defending and attacking is unfathomable. Defense should be mediocre base with TH in the corner. And attacking should be spamming barbarians and archers next to collectors on a dead base. Anything beyond that is just – NOPE!

They will whine until they get their cheap shield back.

You should hear this guy's rant about people that don't like the types of foods he likes either. Whooooweeee

I don't think I understand the concept of the Loot Cart. <scratches head>

I get raided .... they take all my loot .... "x" percentage of the loot they took goes into my Loot Cart .... which .... in turn comes back to me. I don't get it. Why not just decrease the % that they take? wouldn't that have been easier?

confused.

And then u're the 1st one whining on 'less loot available to loot from others'....sigh

[Chris4stars85]

Amusing how so many folk talk about how this isn't enough as if it's going to be the final system of aquiring loot that's implemented

It's a good start...and begins to build on what will be a better game. A need for TH snipes and dead bases is cheap and implys a broken game pre update (being popular doesn't mean otherwise)

[Chris4stars85]

Also people still finding this complicated?! How low is the average IQ on these forums?!?

1.You click a button after you've been raided to recover some lost loot - it goes into your CC

2. You gain 5 stars a day to achieve the daily bonus

I mean seriously, can some of you even dress yourselves in the morning?

[lordgc]

Wouldn't it be simpler to bring back sniping and 100% loot bonus at 50% attack damage? Also return the loot stored in the town hall to the loot stores.

I think so too. What if this is just pointless complication and I dont even feel like opening this website.


Please bring back what was working!

Hello Clashers,

As mentioned in our latest posts, we’re currently working on an update that we intend to roll out as soon as possible. In the meantime here is a preview of what’s coming:

Introducing the new Star Bonus! Win five stars in Multiplayer attacks in order to win a daily resource bonus!

Housed in your Clan Castle, the Treasury is the safest place to store resources. Your daily Star Bonus and War Loot Bonus are automatically stored in the Treasury for safeguarding and only a very small percentage can be stolen.

Last but not least, we’ll introduce the Loot Cart. After your village has been attacked, a percentage of the stolen resources will be added to a Loot Cart in your Village. Once you collect the resources from the Loot Cart, these will be transferred to your Treasury for safeguarding.

Besides these new features, the update will also include a few bug fixes and battle balancing tweaks.

We’ll provide more details soon, stay tuned, and let us know what you think!

This gets a thumbs up from me...excited for these changes

Additionally why not have an increasing star bonus

Like win 5 stars for this amount
Win 10 stars for bigger amount
Win 20 stars for the biggest amount
Just my suggestion

Straight refund is problematic. If village is inactive, it keeps getting resources to refund storage every time someone attacks. Now active player gets benefit on refund via loot cart. It has limited capacity, so loot doesn't add up on inactives as it shouldn't.
Imo loot cart refund should be higher on lower th levels. I'm th10 and rarely lose more than half lootable resources, i don't have problems on losing loot. Th9 and lower get steamrolled, i feel bad for them.

Actually, that makes a lot of sense. Good point about active vs inactive. It should be 40-50%. Since I'm only working on walls + heroes, this isn't absolutely needed (not complaining though if it really makes saving easier). But seeing clanmates that are early 8 or 9 getting crushed and dismayed with the game pains me. I grew up to a more advanced base with the cheap shield so I could progress a lot faster. Very rare did someone attack for more than the townhall.

I hate that just now the game has completely reversed course and just now are they starting to try to change things. They should have anticipated more of these problems honestly. Many threads detailed exactly what would happen after all... and of course those all came true.

My biggest problem with all this is the lack of a beta test. That's inexcusable IMO.
