Star Bonus, Treasury, Loot Cart and more!

[Chrisyshalala]

Only thing that will benefit you from the sounds of things is reduced cooking times - that or more dead bases to use weak troops on

Can't see that happening any time soon sorry

TH 11 farming in high leagues is lucrative enough, so much so I got a week shield to wait for a couple of builders to become available

I know... But waiting for troops is super boring... And I saw myself slowly stopping playing, dropped to lower leagues but the fun is gone really. And btw i never relied purely on dead bases, nice when they come but I'm not the one hitting next only to find one. I like to use smaller troops, or the max i use is balloon and minions, i used to boost them to have session of 2 hours playing once in a while. That is clearly impossible with the base defenses i encounter in a higher league as a th11... I need a war army there... And in all honesty i doubt elexir wise it is that profitable in compare to farming strategies of before...
Mainly it's about fun really... And this is not fun for many people. I want to chose what I want to do and that is having little raiding sessions, chatting while troops cook and so on.... That is totally gone...
Anyway, i more or less moved on to another game, just collecting, I will give it one last shot with this update but hope and most important: trust in SC are totally gone for me...

..so I can hide down in bronze and live off my collectors like the old days :,)

may cover the war loot bonus that was reduced

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

Surely this is to just going to encourage rampant bullying.

Fact is people are lazy. They will always take the minimum effort route possible.

To get the loot bonus they will just find the lowest level th they can and flatten it with cheap troops to get the full bonus.

Unless their is a clause that it has to be at the same townhall level this is going to mean a lot of lower ths are frequently going to be wiped out by higher level ths they have no chance of defending against.

There HAS to be a limitation to prevent bullying.

While I am happy to see they are preparing an update...

These changes will not bring back the SOCIAL game we love since they do not include cheaper faster troop training and spell generation. There is NO SOCIAL aspect to a game where you only raid 3-6 times per day. IMO boosting barracks and spell factory is not a solution for this as you should not be required to boost to attack and have fun. It's no fun to wait 1.5+ hours to attack.

Nor does this allow you to play when you want to play and shield when you want to shield and protect your cc troops if needed for war... nor use heroes while upgrading for war ... nor ...

Barching at champion currently with my th10

giants, anfew wizards, archers, barbarians , goblins and wallbreakers at master 3 with my th9

plenty other quick armies or semiquick armies you can use.

Ahhahahaah.... But then everyone would exploit it and then it will be removed like the sniping 😱

Agreed. Every update lately has turned a relatively simple, easy to understand game, more and more complicated. If we get back a % of what is stolen, why not just reduce the % available to steal? The net result is the same...

I hope they don't screw up the quest thing by giving like 10k gold for 5 stars, but I have no confidence it won't be an insignificant amount. And it's still just a 1-time bonus, so it's really just like collecting a little more resources. It won't help much unless it's a bonus for EVERY 5 stars.

The difference between a loot cart that refunds lost resources and reducing the percentage stolen is actually pretty big. The first generates new loot into the economy where none existed before, the second method you suggest doesn't create more loot but actually reduces the amount we can steal.

Doing so will only compell people to move to a higher league simply for the bonus (same as th sniping), instead, base it off what army the attacker uses.

That will give people incentive to build stronger bases and put thought into it. What league youre in, and how advanced your base is will determine how much loot you get.
Wouldnt make much sense for a th7 in champs to get barched and get the same bonus as a th9 that gets pentalooned.

[awalsopm]

Will suck it and see, if it tastes bad IT WILL be spat out.

[mfield]

you log in after an attack on your village, click a button and a % of loot stolen from you gets put in your cc...how people find this elaborate is beyond me

How is getting "free loot" for being raided any more dignifying or any more "the way the game was meant to be played" than TH sniping? Now SC is just messing with our heads.

Also, the name "loot cart" sounds strange. Why not call it "salvaged loot" or "hidden loot" or "reserves".
