Clash of Clans Fixing Loot Issues with Update

If you like mobility then it’s likely you are addicted, like me, to the number 1 game for mobile devices Clash of Clans. I have been playing for over a year after resisting the urge to download it knowing fully well that I would become addicted to the game and guess what? I did. So if you are playing most likely the December HUGE update bring things like TH11 and many other updates left you not so satisfied. One of the largest gripes other than the ability to use your Heroes while they are upgrading in war is that they took all of the dead bases out of the multiplayer attacks. This was a huge source of loot and significantly helped players elevate through the game more quickly. In addition to no more town hall sniping, and loot bonus percentage there is a lot of moaning going on. Today however, Supercell, the developers of Clash of Clans have announced a fix to the loot situation. One would think they would just get rid of loot bonus percentages (really dumb idea) and add dead bases back into the multiplayer battles for easier loot. Come on now, you know Supercell wouldn’t make it easy? They would need to further complicate the game by adding the following:

Hello Clashers,
As mentioned in our latest posts, we’re currently working on an update that we intend to roll out as soon as possible. In the meantime here is a preview of what’s coming:
Introducing the new Star Bonus! Win five stars in Multiplayer attacks in order to win a daily resource bonus!
Housed in your Clan Castle, the Treasury is the safest place to store resources. Your daily Star Bonus and War Loot Bonus are automatically stored in the Treasury for safeguarding and only a very small percentage can be stolen.
Last but not least, we’ll introduce the Loot Cart. After your village has been attacked, a percentage of the stolen resources will be added to a Loot Cart in your Village. Once you collect the resources from the Loot Cart, these will be transferred to your Treasury for safeguarding.
Besides these new features, the update will also include a few bug fixes and battle balancing tweaks.
We’ll provide more details soon, stay tuned!

WTF? Why why why does Supercell need to focus on complicating the game instead of streamlining it and adding features the community wants instead of their incessant quest to get more players to use gems? The irony is that many of the communities ideas would most likely make the game much better and net them more gems. Why? People would play more!

While many of the ultra elite war clans have moaned about th9 being too easy, I personally have found it pretty balanced. TH10 and 11 appear to have gotten a lot easier, especially th11. But what really matters is that the Trophy pushers have all gotten the updates they wanted. When is the update coming out? Hopefully soon but no one knows for sure. Hopefully Supercell fixes this latest mess and focuses more on the war community and makes the game more playable.
