Star Bonus, Treasury, Loot Cart and more!

[rein817]

I generally spend most of my time lurking and watching, I have to ask what all the fuss is about? I have a th8 and a th9 and while yes i lose much more loot now that i can't park my th outside I find that i'm making way more bank now than i was before with both accounts. Not every defense was a snipe before so it's not like i got to cash in loot for free all the time. Also i get in two or three attacks if i'm lucky before my shield runs out so for every 200k i lose i probably bank at least 600k. I've also never been the type to attack without a real army because i feel like if i'm going to play the game i should probably know how to do more than just mass spam barbs and archers, maybe this is why i don't notice that big a difference in gameplay.
pushing a th9 into champions has forced me to become what i would consider a passable attacker and also taught me that if you play in a high enough league the loot comes easy, i mean the bonus is almost what it costs me to build so anything i raid is a gift. I think a big part of the problem is that most people are playing at a level too low for their th.
I guess i just don't understand why there's so much hate out their for an update that i personally found didn't change the game all that much for me except allowed me to pretty much attack whenever i want without needing to worry about loosing my shield too soon.
I think the proposed update is only going to augment current gameplay and make it even better.

nice analysis, i am just wondering how you manage to be online all the time while waiting for your next huge army

i think for me that is the main problem, attacking with full army is fun, but waiting for it to be cooked is not

not everyone also has the time to be online for long so i can imagine frustration of some people who wants to attack, log off, wait for army to cook, then come back (might lose more than you earn)

when is the update gonn acome

[Vinnie009]

I'll start off by saying I haven't really liked the last 2 updates and this next one seems like it will be another buggy flop like the last one. Clash is trying to play catchup with the other clash clone games out there that do more for their players. I've played 4 still halfway playing 2 and I like em but these Clash people still got me....I can't quit. I'm a clan leader lvl 9 war clan. Can't leave my boys high and dry. Just teamed up with a stricter war clan because we needed a wake up call. Too many go wipe war attackers. Not an end game strategy there...teaches proper drop timing and solid 2 star attack. Anyway. Might have made myself an out by aligning with another clan.

Back to my point... Loot, attacks, losses of loot are basically the same for my mature base, even though I'm a new TH 10 defense wise (9.5 full TH 10 attack force TH 9 defenses) my rushed bases though are basically dead. My first account I gemmed to TH 10 waaaay to fast. Had him nursed up to working TH 9 defenses pre update but post update I have to keep him loot poor or he gets leveled and can't drop trophies to hide these days. Other was a test base 7.5 he gets matched up in war just fine but brutally stomped by TH 8&9. So no more gem buying on them. Let the little one just die and keep the TH 10 for troop donations.

Tips for the people not having problems. None, keep being awesome.

Tips for the people having problems:

-only save one type of loot at a time.
Going for gold use full war troops to keep elixir and DE down.
Elixir use hogs and golems and use gold for walls.
DE use Giants wizzies wall breakers with goblins as filler and use gold for walls

- new TH people there is a place where if you push low enough you get past the trophy droppers and hide but not much raiding down there and need to stay below 800 trophies or you start going up fast.

-don't try and go all the way to the top of the trophy range of you don't have a few different attacks that work. Say low next a lot of bases minimum 10 and try and find one that works. Pre update or post it still takes a lot of "next" to find one I like with the loot I want.

-experiment. I've seen "successful" loot raids with just all goblins. I'd personally throw some wall breakers in to avoid splash damage at walls. But whatever. Think outside the box. Don't be the laymens definition of insanity and keep doing the same things and expect different results.


This nonsense is here to stay and they will continue to make more "improvements" to the game mechanics instead of just adding new content like has worked in the past for them. They won't revert TH shields. They might relent on some of the other topics, percent for league loot, percent for shield, collector rate increase (still "loot problems" and they've been making people pay for how long?), or a real increase to league loot bonus. Things of this nature. I don't see them ever giving Heros during war. That seems like a no brainier nice thing for you players, but they want gem sales on starting and finishing them early so you can continue to enjoy the game. The other clash clones allow hero upgrades in their "lab" and your "Heros" never is un-usable. Which is smart considering it is a fundemental part of the game and to attack and defend without it seems...well "not like the game was intended" lol

hope that helps someone...I'm currently here to stay but probably will be posting more helpful things moving forward. Don't get it wrong though. I cut my gem spending down to basically nothing and am not happy with SC dev team. I think this was a bad business move changing game mechanics in such a drastic way when there are true paying customers playing and paid because they liked the old method. Shady move...not even going on the release timing right before a holiday and how long it's still taking for any kind of "honey" update instead of all "stick" making things...kinda harder in a already long drawn out grinding game.

Good post
Mind if I ask what other clash type games you are playing?
I play on one that's pretty decent (can tell you in a private message), but I wouldn't mind checking out some others in case they catch my interest

I don't find myself on clash as much nowadays. Not only do I find the grind getting boring, but the biggest factor is the loss of the social aspect of the game. Less of my clanmates seem to be around chatting. Also theres always a few doing a hero upgrade so cant participate in wars, which adds to the problem of less activity.

Dont be a condescending ♥♥♥♥♥.

Well don't make posts that ask for it then.

Assuming they didn't start work the day they announced the changes it has certainly been a week or two. So according to your own timetable it should be done.

Any reason for lying about what I said?

Maybe SC shouldn't announce these ♥♥♥♥ teases with no firm timetable of release. Or spend some of that money we give them and get a team that can do the job.

I am quite sure they have an excellent development team.

I am in pretty much the same position, but you have to remember that at the moment, loot is being artificially exaggerated by the 1 gem resource boost.

Take that away, and there will be a shortage of loot.

I think the proposed update is only going to augment current gameplay and make it even better.

That rather depends on the values when it is implemented. If they are high enough to inject as much loot into the game as the 1 gem boost is doing, then yes. Otherwise, we could still end up with a loot drought.

Hi Anoushka,

7 Days and no details about the new changes. I think "soon" should be a little faster.
Please let the community known about your progress.

I hope we get details this week!

still waiting formore sneak peaks

[Abernathy52]

Like a lot of others I am waiting for the next update because the existing scenario is not much fun. Progression has slowed, clan mates absent as they build their war raid armies and endless nexting to find a base to attack that actually pays some profit in a raid is just too weird. In short, the game has become a grind and fairly boring. I keep coming back because it used to be so much fun. But I play less and less.

What makes it even worse is that the clan wars have been impacted as fewer participate and those that do frequently must deal with the dreaded modders. SC seems reluctant to deal with them. Why not freeze their accounts for a week with a warning and kill the account on a further infraction? I guess they are too busy fighting fires elsewhere or counting profits...
I hope they can improve things soon because I'm verging on moving on. Yes an update on an ETA for a fix might be in order....
