Supercell developers are in hot water over the modifications they made in the Town Hall 11 of "Clash of Clans." The modified personal break system has showed to damage the gameplay of "COC."
Design and Trend reported, Reddit forum about "Clash of Clans" issues showed, more than 100 comments in a debate. Most gamers looks annoyed on how Supercell implemented personal breaks.
Last month, Supercell disclosed that it would be making significant revisions to its personal break system. Based on the new policies, gamers are reprimanded for a few minutes after unshielded cumulative three hours online time. The update is now released, it confirmed timer resets if the gamer hasn't been dosed off for 30 minutes or after acquiring a shield.
The reason behind the revision was to equalize the "COC" field with those gamers that can't stay always logged into the game. On the other hand, the hardcore gamers haven't taken this change positively.
There are other occurrences where gamers can't get shields because they are always being attacked. This implies the counter pursues to increase without being reset. One Reddit user posted that he is being crushed by the timer repeatedly and being attacked 27 times.
One factor of the issue is the feature of the new Village Guard that runs to defend clans while their leaders are far from the town. For instance, the time allotment still counts the three hour limit, while the Village Guards are active for 30 minutes during a battle. The gamer is kicked offline when preparing to log in, as those changes were running beyond their control. The issues even affects those that desire to periodically spot check "Clash of Clans" in the entire day for menial assignments like gathering resources or chatting. Again, this contributes to the ceiling time.
Finally, this personal break timer looks like it possibly damages some aspect of the game experience. One fans said, he may not play "Clash of Clans" anymore because he thinks it is not enjoyable after the change. Everyone thinks that watching their playtime makes the game frustrating.
