Then for the long term you can discus the alternative options and make a long term discission (and please let us know then when you made your discission).

unfortunately that's not a solution as clans are not region based (you can be a US based clan with chinese members etc).
there isn't really a 'quick fix' for this specific timezone situation

what is there to discuss can u explain? china vs usa clan both super active, on day 1 are tied on 40.000 fames than what happens? china get their midnight cooldown reset faster than usa because of time zone and USA Rip. This means dishonoring the clients especially those that put money in the game.

there's a lot to discuss. say hypothetically, i agree that there's a problem. then what? we as a team have to:

  • figure out a bunch of alternative options that do not end up with the same problem
  • which of the alternative options is the best option
  • build it
  • implement it
  • test it etc

this is what i'm getting at when i say it is under discussion, we can't just remove a feature/put in a half-arsed feature quickly as that will no doubt cause more harm than good.
i hope that clears things up for you

Comment

it's under discussion but no decision made yet. it was a design choice so it's good to get feedback and data on this before making rash decisions

Comment

we are aware of this visual bug, ty for posting

Hey drew sorry if you answered this already, is there an estimated date when the optional update will come? The game badly needs it.

we're gonna squeeze a few more things in and submit it to app stores for approval soon. we're estimating a release next week

That's awesome Drew, I love your new shift in communication. I would even say you got some coaching on how to change it so that it evolves in a right way with this tricky and schizophrenic community. By the way it works and I really like it.

To come back to this point. I love duel in CW2 and there is no debate for me that Duel should be extended to other parts of the game.

Thank you for your huge communication. Be sure that mine will continue at this level.

thanks for the feedback, glad its a noticeable difference.

no coaching, just amazing what can happen when an update is released and there is actually stuff to talk about ;)

Thanks for this, Drew!

Quick question: Could you share the reasoning for why we can no longer search for clans while in a clan?

just an oversight. the function should be returning

Please put tokens in the weekly clan war chest. Does not make sense to me you removed them from the CW loot. You said many time CW2 is the best place to level up cards, but if you remove tokens from it I believe that's a wrong statement. Thanks

there is a discussion about this already. as i remember certain tech issues meant we couldn't get trade tokens in for this update so we adapted to more gold instead. is definitely a discussion point!

thanks for the feedback

It's almost definitely a bug or at least very poor design to have the 'add defences' button still available then. Very confusing.

it's a bug! it's meant to be greyed out

Hey drew, As a heard in recent CWA video, you as a single community manager for such huge game is doing a great work. I used to be mad when you don't interact with community but now i think it a difficult job.

This post will definitely will get ignored but, the optional/mandatory update will change some UI features. Will it include clan chat UI change as well? because the community seems to be unhappy with the new transparent UI.

thanks for the message! i appreciate it.

the optional update is dedicated to bigger bugs and gameplay issues.

i have already gvien the UI feedback to our artist, but just because some members are unhappy with it doesnt mean all players are, and i'm going to trust my UI artists' thoughts on this one.there has been a lot of time and thought spent on the UI design so it isn't one of those things that we will be changing within a week etc.

thanks for the feedback!

They haven't had a shield in 2 days, and still have 4 boat defenses left. I can't attack their boat.

do you have defenses set up on your boat?

can you give me a quick step by step rundown of how you get this error?

thanks!

Darn, there goes that conspiracy theory. Guess I'll have to go back to rigged matchmaking conspiracy theories.

they're my favourite conspiracy theories!

i always wonder what happens to the winner in the 'rigged matchmaking' situations. do they also lose?

Drew, c'mon now, the ONLY value assumption is for gems/gold, even if you lower that down, rewards are NOWHERE more than before. Literally NOWHERE. He is right when he says a token is worth its max stack gold you get, and even with assumptions on wins and losses, it is CLEAR that there is NO BETTER rewards. In your post you didn't explain how they were better. That's because they aren't. Also leagues progression has been MASSIVELY NERFED, now you lose trophies for a 3rd place whereas before you would gain something, as there are no win trophies to mitigate the one you lose as before. Overall, clans are gonna get DOWN in leagues, and even if rewards were better, and this is not the case, majority of community would still get worse than before. Also, pretty please do not fill challenges and stuff with tokens, give something that actually helps progression (gold, cards, chests, gems). Tokens are the worst reward ever, they should have never been a reward, but some free thing to give, o...

i don't know what i can say other than that the rewards are more. the statistics are all there in my rewards post. we make it a point not to make things worse when taking things away (we have learnt that the hard way before) so any changes that we do make now are always with the mind for anet positive for the player

Comment

while i appreciate the effort that you have put into this post, you have used incorrect values for gold calculations (you even stated this yourself when you talk about card conversions) and made quite a few assumptions about other values which makes your overall calculations incorrect.

questions for you!

we have provided clear stats in our rewards post, and full transparency with those values, so i would love to know why you think we are actually not being truthful in that post? what made you want to make this post etc.

i would also love to know how we could improve those reward posts for the future so that we don't get misinformation like this in the sub.

After giving it a few days to play here are a few of my thoughts:

1) best of 3 duels are completely pointless in this format

-If you do not have 3 maxed decks, you do not stand a chance

-format causes decks to become progressively worse without the ability to repeat cards (ex. Multiple deck structures require spell cards. If you used 3 in deck 1 and have none for your other 3 decks it changes how people play the game )

-you waste 3/4 of your war day decks on one event

Personally, I believe it would have been better to let people choose from 1 of the 5 decks they have already designed in the game for each duel match and have this count for only 1 of their war day participation slots. It takes more skill to prepare for all cards/deck combos, rather than finish games 1&2 and not have to prepare for a fireball, zap, xyz card.

2) The matchmaking system is TERRIBLE.

-Right now the system is factoring in card levels, but it nee...

thanks for your feedback:

RE: grand challenges feedback

- a constant feedback is that we need to cater more to casual players/the masses, which grand challenges are not for
- duel system in challenges would be awesome however. question for you - why do you think it would be good in a challenge but your feedback about duels in your first point is negative?

- we can't do any form of betting in games without legal issues or being removed from the app store

From the table I don't see how the legendaries we have lost from the quest chests like mega lightning, kings chest, legendary chest, etc have been put into the war rewards - the legendaries we get will go down

Also before you had many chances to get a 1st chest in a season, this is not the case anymore - so war rewards go down again

Also, this rebuttal shows that none of this is true https://www.reddit.com/r/ClashRoyale/comments/ilg9wu/do_we_get_more_rewards_from_the_new_update_or_did/

If you check the new war season chests you can see the Legendary values there. The rewards are not lowered just because you have less chances to earn them. And you also earn 4 Chests every month rather than 2 chests

that rebuttal post uses incorrect values. the OP even says they are using values that they believe are correct instead of the correct values, they halved the value of cards for example.
i don't know what else i can do to convince you if you don't want to take our official statistic/fact based posts at face value, so any feedback on this would be great.

have you got some screenshots or a player tag you've experienced this on as proof of this?
there was a bug in the first day where incorrect gold was given but that was resolved with a maintenance on tuesday.
