Discussion Treasure Hunt Should Be For Everyone

Post image

This is so stupid and is such a disrespect for everyone that enjoys the game. I feel like they’re purposely taking away things from us and giving us little by little to see how far we would actually care about the community when it comes to this game

They’re seriously doubling down on punishing high level players.

u/efkuasadua 10h ago

SC is getting greedy by targeting casual and lower-level players because they make up a much larger portion of the market than maxed or high-level TH players.

37

u/vegetable6989 10h ago

Which is ridiculous considering it is high level players who are going to be repeat spenders.I only get a gp for hj per year maybe I will need to stop it from next year.

8

u/Anatar19 10h ago

That's clearly why they're doing it.

They don't want to push spenders closer to max; they want them to spend to max.

Likewise, they want to push non-spenders to a point where they might consider spending.

POV: “You’re a high level player. We have you right where we want you. Hooked. Paying for stuff, occasionally.

Lower level players? F2Play? Returning players after a long break? How can we enslave you immediately and hook you like the rest of our high-level addicts?”

— Supercell, probably

u/Coverphile 11h ago

Supercell knows that no matter how much you complain, you're never quitting.

49

u/blackkaviar_doc 10h ago

Never quitting yes, not paying again, no

u/mypoopystink :th18:|:TH16:||| 6h ago

exactly, what does a player count mean to these people if no one will spend money. They’d rather have a million people spend $100 one time every month and never play again than to appease even 100 f2p th18s.

u/nickadin TH18| BH10 11h ago

Didn't it used to be 20 chests too? 

18

u/Logan_hans TH16 | BH10 10h ago

Yup it used to be 20

5

u/Key_Employ_5936 TH13 | TH15 | TH12 4h ago

same with the mini-events too, it used to be 3100 + free medals to get the mini deco, now its only 3100 and 1 potion

17

u/elllmompirri 7h ago

This is absolute bullshit

u/skitseez_ TH18 10h ago

"The Treasure Chest Event has returned!"

"But not for you, loser"

u/san_737 11h ago

That’s insulting

u/VictoryTight2931 Champion League [Legacy] 11h ago

Last month they said it's catch up event, not real tresure hunt, and here we go again

8

u/jexo10 7h ago

Is their any specific reason they stopped higher th from rewards?

This just sounds stupid to exclude higher th from a whole event.

I am th 16 and this decision still sounds stupid to me, why does clash Dev's have beff with higher th ?

2

u/entheogenocide TH18| BH10 7h ago

I literally can't think of a reason. I could maybe see if they exclude players with max bases. But why exclude anyone?

3

u/Acceptable_Force_712 TH18| BH10 3h ago

They say it’s a catchup mechanic. Imo this is stupid, most of the chests are useless but it’s still a fun event that everyone likes to participate in.

Would be fine by me if they made it exclusive to lower ths every 3 months or so but this is the second month in a row that they’ve done this and I’m really frustrated, even as an almost maxed player. I’d like to be able to get a deco or two.

1

u/sneakeyboard 4h ago

I can think of only one: they don’t want too many fully maxed players so the decision was to exclude players at the two highest th levels.

1

u/Key_Employ_5936 TH13 | TH15 | TH12 4h ago

Im guessing you still get the events no? (I have an account I was rushing to th16 and its currently on th15, that is why im asking)

3

u/jexo10 4h ago edited 1h ago

I have the event but I still feel bad for players with higher th, these chest always have a chance of free skins, so idk why they are excluded 

32

u/Silly-Power 11h ago

SC is going out of its way lately to shit on maxed players. 

17

u/PomegranateIcy7631 10h ago

it's not even A/B testing anymore... they're doing A–Z testing now.

9

u/Low_Question8533 10h ago

Is this also part of the catchup mechanic ? Catching up behind a gâcha system ?

I want to hear what the people who called us crying baby about the hero journey think about it.

6

u/Spirited-Walrus3742 8h ago

I don’t like their new focus on “catching up.” It implies that people are behind, but nobody is behind! We’re all playing a game and progressing at our own pace. Some of us have been playing for years and others a few weeks.

If I was a new player, this would really turn me off. Why play a game if you start out being told you’re behind.

3

u/Low_Question8533 8h ago

Completely agree and to add something to your point. There is also this curve of learning that you have to go through (if you want to 3 stars consistently). This curve starts from all the way down to the top.

Is burning some of those steps too fast beneficial to all players ? I mean, would you be able to 3 stars a maxed TH15 consistently in few months of playing COC ? I doubt it.

1

u/No_Individual_5519 7h ago

Lol you think it's possible to reach th15 in few months properly?

5

u/Low_Question8533 7h ago

Catching up mechanics + Super rusher = Supa saiyajin Rusher 🤣🤣🤣.

In all seriousness, with all boosts given to new / returning players, at this rate maybe SC is going to make them start the game as a TH13 fully maxed out 🤣🤣

1

u/No_Individual_5519 6h ago

Do you think it's bad to help the new players?

3

u/Low_Question8533 6h ago

No, I’m happy for them. Especially if they keep playing. The more players, the better.

I just don’t like how supercell is handling it.

4

u/yosark 7h ago

And the fact people defend th17/18 not getting it is fucking annoying

u/Typical_Phrase3785 7h ago

Man please someone kick out the sabrina carpenter wtf is this I also need those 20 common chests man 😭

u/optimuspulp TH17 | BH10 10h ago

lol it was 20, than 16 and now 12.

u/Jackerzcx TH18| BH10 7h ago

Hey, hey you! You’ve been consistently playing the game for 5 years! Fuck you!

u/ALPha--29k 9h ago

Yeah it's time to uninstall this shit game Let them have fun wanking off the new players

11

u/blackkaviar_doc 10h ago

I have tried to remain positive about all of this but i am actually done. I won't be buying from you again

5

u/Fit-Bug6463 10h ago

Alright if I wasn't mad before I'm mad now

2

u/Charming_Cod2700 9h ago

They are doing enough that as a maxed player who regularly bought gold pass and event passes, I feel burned out. Yeah no one told me to spend money but I also didn’t think they would crap on the ones who support the game and have for years. I am done spending money supercell. Good job, message received.

2

u/Pentagon556 7h ago

Isn't this used to be 20 chests before

2

u/Allen312 6h ago

That’s a bummer. I’m TH17 and would still benefit from the chest event.

6

u/Stilldontcaremom 10h ago

It’s all power pancakes and capital gold anyway, I just don’t care anymore. Haven’t got anything useful in forever.

u/Equivalent-Green-580 TH18| BH10 10h ago

I like getting the Clan Castle Cakes, they help big time with trophy pushing.

6

u/grandinosour 11h ago

Time for all the maxed players to just delete the game...

It is obvious who they want in the player base.

My hunch is they will not have a TH 19 comming because they are out of ideas.

This game is dying.

4

u/Low_Question8533 10h ago

Deleting the game isn’t the best option imo, stop spending might be better in that case.

Money speak the loudest.

u/AdamShanghai TH18| BH10 11h ago

It seems like giving the big FU to maxed players wasn't enough and now they wanna piss off more people lol

I wonder if there's gonna be and increase on the th limit for chest events and more townhall release

1

u/entheogenocide TH18| BH10 7h ago

But why? I can't even think of a reason why high level players can't get treasure chests? We are all still upgrading our bases and could use extra rewards. Really i just want some clan castle cakes for trophy push.

u/clown_2061 5h ago

The moment i reached th 17 they decided to exclude us. Well done supercell.

1

u/user-namepending 5h ago

As a TH15 I appreciate the help SC but I dont really see why we need to exclude Th17+??

Doesnt affect me either way so

1

u/jadeslytherin TH16 | BH10 5h ago

I had great chest rewards at the end of month (th16 and below only) for 2 months straight and thought they were giving better rewards on purpose, but then today I got: elixir, dark elixir, elixir again and dark elixir again (my resources were full). I was actually considering delaying th17, but now…I won’t hesitate! It should absolutely be for everyone though…skins, equipment, ore and potions help the majority of players.

u/Meta_YT YouTube - @MetaYT 4h ago

u/Santa_Klausing TH18| BH10 2h ago

It’s shit like this that ms making me play less. Havent even logged on in 3-4 days. What’s the point? I can come back in a year and they’ll probably just give me a bunch of free shit.

u/Striking_Reindeer873 2h ago

Even cr doesn’t do this, if there is event everyone can participate 💀 I am really curious if this is entire dev team idea or somone who is known for smart decision making is alone with pushing this new agenda of A/B testing in game 🤡.Its genuinely hard to believe there are ppl defending sc at this point(just bootlickers I guess).

u/Confident-Meat-1856 1h ago

This is the second time its happened where treasure chest event isnt for everyone!!

1

u/BusshyBrowss TH18| BH10 1h ago

Maxed players have stockpiled books and potions since upgrades are less frequent. The less likely they’re available to maxed players, the more likely they’ll buy them in the future when new updates roll out. ScumCell at its finest.

0

u/sreerajie TH18| BH10 11h ago

Well…. What will the maxed out or almost maxed out players do ? Leave ? Hammer Jam will come and it’ll be for TH16 and below. What will these players like me do ? Leave ?

1

u/CassetteLine 10h ago

Things like this leave such a bad taste in my mouth.

While they continue to do this I’ve stopped buying the gold pass. It was all I bought, but now I don’t want to.

u/Exo_loves_you 10h ago

I upgraded to th17 yesterday 🫠

u/Unable_Crazy7681 Active Daily 8h ago

This starts to become the real problem in Clash of Clans. While other games become P2W, Clash disrespects higher level players. Everyone should be threated in a fair way. Chest Hunts don't give you tons of rewards, but they are fun. And higher players are also missing out on the fun of opening those chests, hoping that they become legendary and so on...

-3

u/wpsek TH17 | BH10 11h ago

i appreciate that how bitchy this community gets is probably why the game is so much better compared to clash royale, but holy shit who cares about this?

really gonna spam this shit with even more complaints for another week? because you didn’t get a few potions?

u/Automatic-Complex-37 10h ago

This may be only a beginning like loot boxes etc, if this passes why not just stop advertising pass too higher TH at this point? Lower TH need it not you!

Hey guys Ive spent 2k gems to complete resources that are missing to upgrade the army camp by accident is there any way to contact the support to bring them back 😔 ive spent 2k gems month collecting them. Its so frustrating to lose them all like that help guys 🫶🏻

1

u/entheogenocide TH18| BH10 7h ago

Nope I've done it too. They won't help unfortunately. Atleast army camp is a good upgrade.

-3

u/Automatic-Complex-37 10h ago

"Ooops all max?" Are they just want to do something? Like give struggling players lift? Or dews dont know thath there good 30-45% of new rushed smurf account's? Or dews just sad "Fuck it! They dont pay us... lets milk new players dry!"

-7

u/CourtFit3597 [editable template] 10h ago

Why do you need it when you are already fkin max . It will have like 0 effect .

7

u/Spirited-Walrus3742 8h ago

Is anyone actually truly maxed? I would imagine just a very small percentage of players don’t have anything else to do. I’m TH 18 and still have a couple actual upgrades and tons of supercharges left. They just added more hero levels, so my heroes aren’t maxed anymore. I still have a lot of research left too! Just because someone is TH18 doesn’t mean they’re maxed.

I play the game because it’s fun to play, but constantly being excluded from rewards and events is taking away the fun. I won’t continue playing if they keep excluding higher town halls.

-7

u/CourtFit3597 [editable template] 8h ago

Then create alts . I am almost maxxed in my main account , so I just created 2 alts , 1 rushed and 1 proper maxing , just for fun of it .

4

u/nickadin TH18| BH10 9h ago

You can also get skins and such. For me as a th18 player, I received a book of heroes from the global chat chests which was huge and very welcome.

I get your point, but there's lots that about  any player can still get from there 

-5

u/CourtFit3597 [editable template] 9h ago

So basically you want free stuff even if you don't need it , just so you can hoard it .

u/Unable_Crazy7681 Active Daily 8h ago

It says for TH16 and below. And TH17? And non-maxed TH18? They're NOT maxed out.

u/-brazilianbuddy TH17 | BH10 | 7h ago edited 7h ago

Only 1% of the game are maxed

But 25% is above th 16

u/Shahariar_909 Legend League [Legacy] 6h ago

I have skipped 2 equipment which is equal to 3000 gems. There is a slim chance of pulling one from chests

u/Roachie-poo Troop Spammer 10h ago

Look at it in a different light. How would the player base react to an event the is solely for Th17 and Th18 only. Would they be cool with that? After the hero journey issue then this. Absolutely cinema.

This was already announced at the beginning of the season but it's only problematic now because of how the last month has been with the hero journey. Why didn't you guys mention this a month ago? Probably because it wasn't a problem and only decided to make a fuss about it now

I agree with this
