- This is why Supercell has abandoned Boom Beach...
When was the last time you played Boom Beach?
Yeah, unless you’re one of the few active Boom Beach players left, chances are it’s been a long, long time.
Since its global release in early 2014, the game always stood in the shadows of Clash of Clans, and before long several other Supercell games.
On the App Store, it’s currently 174th in the charts for strategy games, and the story is pretty much the same on Google Play.
Despite amassing over 100 million downloads over the years, the game is in a pretty sketchy situation, and the few remaining players are left wondering what the fate of Boom Beach will be.
In the last 30 days alone, another 170 thousand players have quit Boom Beach, and UA-camrs and streamers abandoned the game long ago.
Last month on Twitch, the game reached just 123 peak viewers. The game’s lost almost all of it’s interest, and at this point there’s no chance of a comeback.
I mean, take a look at this Google Trends Graph, comparing Brawl Stars, Clash of Clans and Boom Beach. That red line right at the bottom? That’s boom beach. It’s never been even close to as popular as Supercell's other games, even on release.
So where exactly did Boom Beach go wrong, and what is going to happen to Supercell's least popular game?
In my opinion, Boom Beach was destined to fail, pretty much from the beginning.
Being Supercell's third global release, it had big shoes to fill. At the time both Hay Day and Clash of Clans were genre defining games at the top of the charts, so whatever Supercell dropped next had very high expectations.
Clearly seeing the success of a multiplayer raid based casual strategy game as being a highly lucrative niche, Supercell decided Boom Beach was going to be the next big thing.
I remember when it came out and we were all talking about it in school.
When my friend first told me about it and tried to explain the game, he said It’s Clash of Clans but with boats.
So, I downloaded the game that afternoon and gave it a try.
And yeah, at first glance, it’s pretty much Clash of Clans with boats.
But I quit the game within around a week of playing at the time,
for two main reasons. Firstly, you could only attack from one direction.

we are not getting copyright striked with this one 🔥🔥🗣🗣
On skibidi
I call them SNAKERCELL
It isn't cock so yea
On skibidi fanum tax rizz bear
I still play everyday fun fact the devs have the next 2 years planned with HQ updates 🙏
Hopefully they can steer it back in the right direction
@blags2 I mean Squad Busters has Boom Beach characters and a entire world based off the game so maybe they aren't giving up on it
Honestly boom beach is really fun rn, I stoped playing coc even (like last month) instead and play boom beach. Although still not perfect, I still see high potential to this game
Title: "Supercell Does'nt care about Boom Beach..."
Real Title: "Nobody cares about Boom Beach..."
nop i love boom beach
@@terrariagell1604 Same I like how u can moving ur troop around
You ignored some facts:
- matchmaking just got overhauled recently.
- Boom Beach has its own thing going on, no Boom Beach player would want walls because here you have flares to maneuver your troops(which are way better than walls that cost your life savings lol)
- Boom Beach isn't p2w, like wtf? Its true, if you buy a pass then it's a great help, but its still better than the Cash Royale, and still not as p2w as Clash of Clans.
Other than that, I respect your opinion. Its just sad that you didn't give the game another try so that at least you could've experienced the game's actual current status.
The game's status which you are talking about is pretty much the status 2 years ago. Before the new dev team came.
Honestly the new matchmaker isn’t any better and still has some bugs. I am a level 48 player with 650 VP and I’m still getting level 75 and above players and, occasionally, puny level 30 and below players with barely any loot (obviously) Im barely getting any loot right now and my base progression has slowed down massively.
@@spysmocking4536 the reason you have to fight lvl 75 players is that your VP is high. The new matchmaking prioritises bases that have a level similar to your account, however there's a VP adjustment system: Your VP divided by 10 will be the level of bases that spawn on your map. Yes there are some bugs in the game right now, but once they will get fixed you will have to try to fight bases of level ~65. Or just decrease the amount of your VP with some strategies.
@@raitonadamthanks for explaining it for other people. The new dev team has donde nice changes. And it's not pay to win, that's what I like. If they changed that I would instantly quit as I did with cash Royale like 6 years ago because of the huge bs pay to win is
every supercell game is pay2win and always has been, paying for progress is pay to win
@@neonoir__ no, that's different. Pay to win is when you can get stuff only from paying, and not from playing freely. Paying for progress that you can make playing free so you don't have to wait that much is totally different
Boom beach is a hard game, harder than any other supercell game, especially once you hit about HQ 17. Only the best keep pushing
Absoltely not. Offense is busted. Just play smokey warriors and you win
Go home homie..get to 1200vp...9/9 boosted ice and shield gens will make your worriors toast and dust...have you tried duplexity? Worriors don't work on ops@@etoiledechue1080
@@etoiledechue1080I just do scorchers and maxed out GBE, troop damage and troop health on masterpieces and normal statues
@@Viewer-zs6xj 16 scorchers is a very strong strategy. No brainer strat, in my opinion, but very effective. I like using Bullit (shock knuckles) Mechs (8) bombardiers (12) and smokey warriors. It depends on my mood. Anyways, I agree with you because the more you push, the easier It gets to win
@@etoiledechue1080Not really. With the flamethrower prototype and magnetron this combi is meant to fail. It is the other way aroundy the defende is too strong
The game only needs a good QoL and some improvements with big updates and they would make a money print
The waiting times for training troops isn't that big of a problem, because you can reuse troops who didn't die in an attack
Unlike CoC
Boom beach characters does make appearances in a squad buster so maibe a little chance boom beach get saved but it's like 1% chance.
Every other supercell game appears in squad busters, so no, they probably won't save it
@@Szynka666 yeah but all those games are successful so...
same
Fr because my favorite characters from the game are hammer man and gearheart and gearheart has one piece of offcial art and that’s kinda it
Boom beach was and still is truly a game for hardcore people just like me
You get stuck in hq 12 mostly, that’s when things start heating up and you find 600 vp players with overleveled hq
They changed it so you get against players with similar level as you, unless you are way to high in VP, where the game will put you against harder opponents. Love this change
I am at HQ 22 on my main, another account at 17 now and one small acc stuck at HQ 12, due to not playing much and very low resources. I do feel like the game gets better and better the higher you go up, stronger offense is always more fun
Well, the new dev team puts a lot of work into Boom Beach. It gets updated every 2-3 months.
Also, they announced that they will release 4 more HQ levels within the next 2 years.
Yeah they are still updating the game, may not be a lot but more updates still gives us hope.
The best part of boom beach is doctor T. no argument can be made
i'm so exited about my super weapon that i made a song about it
-dr.T
My dad really enjoyed boom beach, he had been playing since 2015 and was on top of the leaderboards in my country, but he stopped like a year ago bcs he got bored, i would be sad if they just removed it completely
:(
I'm still playing this game right now aaaaand luckily I'm almost at HQ 15 (or maybe not) but the fact is HQ 15 players are able to unlock the 3rd hero which is kinda interesting
me too
I recently picked up the game after 3 years .. only changes I saw were magical items and paas
The only Supercell game you can realistically max out lol
Im not gonna lie I don’t particularly like boom beach but the equipment ability things are a fantastic addition compared to clash of clans. It’s my favorite aspect of the game. Being able to redirect your troops or damage specific buildings and recharge your equipment through destroying a base feels like a natural addition
the forgotten child 😢

Hayday_COC_boom beach_CR_Brawl
@@aibrawl6493there's also squad busters but that's basically brawl stars like gameplay with all game characters combined
"When was the last time you played boom beach?"
Never, I know how it is, but ive never played it. Lol
I stopped playing it, when they stopped giving real updates.
Amazing Video really enjoyed enjoyed it, nice cutting also, keep doing these you've got potential
The biggest reason why I stopped playing was how hard it was. It's much harder than clash of clans. I liked the game for a while but getting matched with people higher than me just made the game frustrating for me so I stopped. I wouldn't mind going back tbh if things changed drastically but I'm sure it's not going to.
It's because you got too many medals and therefore ranked way too high. The game basically punishes you for being an active player, but compared to clash of clans you can't just easily drop trophies and get in a lower league fast.
It can be that way for lower lvls but at higher lvls the game is defenseless, proto troops make the game trivial, even more so than root riders did in clash of clans
I was grinding boom beach in 1th grade 💀😭
Ahh the famous firth grade
boom beach has so much potential and nobody is taking action ?,
I really like the work you put on your videos man
I played Boom Beach for around 1 year,at the beginning I found it super fun but then I just started to get smashed by the grinding boringness.Just attacks after attacks,Warship battles,and waiting days for an upgrade with that damn 1 building upgrade limit.
I used to be a die-hard Boom Beach player but quit 4-5 years ago. It wasn't because it was particularly boring; only that mobile gaming consumed too much of my leisure time. Therefore, I left the game "on good terms". It's sad to see activity has dwindled so much. I have to take issue with your criticism of the graphics/artwork. I've always thought the graphics were among the best on mobile gaming--I still do. The art style is quite superb, fun, and whimsical, and the game is highly polished, something players of Supercell games come to expect. The problem is most certainly not the artwork or style; that's one of its strong suits, even today. They need some big new ideas, maybe play modes, not a complete change.
I love so much this game since 2014 and now 2024 im still playing.. ❤❤❤
Underrated, immediately subbed
I still play it everyday. Warships and mega crab keeps me around for it.
I like Boom Beach and I would hate to see them kill this IP :((
same💔
I started playing boom beach since 2017 and I still play it
My favourite part about boom beach is that the memes about it lasted just as long as the games actual popularity
dr t best character in sc universe
Bro i have watched the full video but have not found any Amazon gift voucher
The beach is the wall replacement
i am boom beach active player and when i see some boom beach characters in squad busters i get some hope that boom beach will remain alive or it some players will play it wondering how heavy and tanks are in the main game
I’m still a long time player who’s always active. I share every single complaint about the game in this video and think it’s hard, but at least that’s what makes it fun for me. I would hate to see the game get shut down.
Been playing 10 years. 🫡
boom beach is good ngl
Wow it’s like you’re only using 5 year old footage and never got beyond level 10. If you don’t know sh!t about the game, you shouldn’t post a review like this.
Yeah so true
At least the operations and warships adds quite a bit more fun to the game though, right?
Forget about @AdepojuOmosimisolasimex. You found content that people enjoy, is incredibly high quality considering your young channel, I assume you enjoy it too since you’re making it, and is growing your channel. Keep up the great work 💜
Thank u!
I got a boom beach ad while watching this 💀
Nahh no way
I love this! 😂 so much misinformation in 9min is a little bit impressive. And it’s announced the biggest upgrades during the next two years then ever, so it’s a weird way of pulling the plug on a game 😂
yeah let me know how that goes. At the end of the day the game makes up a tiny fraction of its revenue, and no matter how much money they throw at it the game just isn’t doing nearly as well as the other 5 games SC has out
@@blags2 100% not doing as good as the other games. Never done, and still lasting.
And I agree that bb has been neglected for many years. So it’s where weird video to put out now, now that sc finally are giving some love to bb for the next two years.
How many weeks/months do you think it is until they pul the plug?
i played this game in 2014 i stopped playing it that year mainly cause i wanted something else 2 play while waiting on clash of clans troops to get ready
Ironically right before the video started I got an add for Clash and Brawl stars
Me and my father still play together.
0:06 today 10 minutes ago set my mines to upgrade
0'13 More than 7-8 years ..
I used to be a teenager who played this game..when there are no heroes in it..
Scorcher was the newest unit at that time..
(Even critters was not an option as in Gunboat arsenal,I am that old player)
If boom beach didn't get its own hypercharge, super troop or evolution update its probably be best if it stayed the way it was
Still gonna play Boom Beach.
I'd probably be playing boom beach right now if the loot wasn't so hard to get, i always feel broke and it's so unsatisfying
Get rescource reward statues!
played it for more than 5 years had maxed out but yeah the game was negelcted like crazy
The PVP Mode which got released 6 years ago is really good. Too sad the game was already dead there
Boom Beach is the Red Headed Step Child for Supercell
great video bro keep it up ❤
The nostalgia.
I swear, up until like 2 weeks ago I didn't even know that this game was still running.
Boom beach made a come back for a month. But now, they don’t even put weekly deals in the shop any more. they even stopped doing the “this month on boom Beach” videos anymore 😢. Clash of clans is screwed too, the developers pandered too much to the top players rather than the people in the general public.
Graphics? Boom beach has a really good looking “robust to advanced” graphical design, this militaristic style which employs a different approach to graphical design than CoC. But I think I can agree with the scenery which maybe some 3D but not too cartoony could boost the game in this aspect? Not exactly sure how that’d look tho
it’s definitely tricky to nail the cartoonish / military combo
They are also releasing new skins including island skins through the new boom pass. It's not a lot but if the player is willing to purchase, they get more content
Sorry but this video is full of errors...
Player since 2015 (10 years in the game)
Boom Beach has NEVER been P2W! It's one of the rare games where you can spend your time on this game,
For the rest of the game, we were unable to do an FAQ with the game developers, it works up to HQ 30 (HQ 26 currently) and the dev team is larger than that before the start of the game , we have skins and new features to better progress in the game.
The ONLY thing I agree with is the graphics, it would be awesome if he worked on that!
Anyway, I'm a complainer but who likes his game prefers lol

playing boom beach for 5 years and true
this is the real issues
warships is still highly competitive
It's so bad that the better you do, the more impossible it gets. bc you can't pick your opponents (like coc legend league), you will get stuck no matter what. even in coc you can avoid legend league
Damn blud never held back 😂
I still play this game actively I started a month ago 😂
I forgot it exist, for good
Since they abandoned it, is that why they’re adding the new hero?😂
Talks about Clash Royale in your next video
Honestly I think i like the story of boom beach, if they just made it into a series i would 100% watch it.
Imo the best Supercell game out there. Clash Royale = p2w. Clash of Clans = waiting years for upgrades. Boom Beach has warships which is probably the only game mode in any Supercell game that‘s completely based on skill. It can be really rough in the mid HQ levels as you get matched against overleveled opponents but if you know about the game mechanics you can easily progress really fast. Always rush your HQ, only build red and purple statues and push offense really hard, ignore defense. Only attack other players when your builder is free. In the last year i managed to get my HQ 16 account up to HQ 22 and my offense is so strong i can basically beat any opponent. It‘s a lot of fun and recently the devs really improved the game by adding a new HQ level, experimenting with warships, adding a pass, adding skins, improving matchmaking and so on. The concept is great and i never got bored in the last year (was taking a multiple year break before though) whereas Clash of Clans bores me after a couple of days at most.
When was the last time i played?
Over 10 years ago jesus christ im old
I abandoned Boom Beach before Supercell did 😂😂😂😂
Played it for like 3 months it was.......interesting
I quit that game a long time ago
Nice video
As some one who used to play boom beach a lot but not much anymore, the reason it gets boring is that attacking people is not challenging, the game is defenseless, people complained that root riders made clash of clans too easy but the proto troops are much worse, there is no chance to defend and the game is less interesting because of it
That is kinda the theme here, most of the fun is with the offense in the game, attacks are the most fun part (unless you use tanks only)
I like to describe this game "tactical" compared to CoC being "strategic". The tactical aspect is more fun to me than the strategic and hence I actually like boom beach more
@@Hagurmert where is the tactics behind dropping ur army setting ur phone down and coming back to a win, defense is too weak
U didnt even mention the warships wich are great imo
Make a video about cr man😭😭
i enjoyed the game as a kid, but it got stale even for kid-me.
yes i love boom beach butt game charge 3 dollar for extra builder and hard to attack opponent's in low HQ
I left the game miss the old days 😢😢😢
Boom beach is kinda back as clan capital 😅
I play everyday. I might log into clash of clans maybe once a week.
People dont even know what boom beach was 😢
Play it daily
Boom beach should add clan war type content
There is operations ik no the same but 😊
@@pankekitoBSops are kinda the equivalent to the clan capital (it plays the same role, given that clan capital works exactly the same way as ops in 3 different points). I do feel like there is still room for more updates within task forces (clan equivalent) and develop some sort of a clan war system.
I actually thought of something in my mind that could potentially be very fun. Let me present it;
You and your clan get to build your own massive operation base(s), using what you get from operations and/or other clan battles to improve your bases, make them more difficult to crack, expand more space and higher level defenses and prototypes and the task force who uses the least attacks/most damage (buildings destroyed) would win and earn high quality rewards for your task force and your home base. * There could be a few other ways to progress, maybe other things too and balanced matchmaking between task forces (either using total VP, total points of task force or total level of players) and match task forces of same size against each other when a task force is ready to fight other task forces with a click of a button.
This is what I had in my head... It feels like a lot but instead of Gearheart generated bases, we get to make our own bases and battle others. This would put a higher emphasis on defense
The addition of this would be nice but if they were to add other temporary events alongside this, that could be too many things, just like CoC
Me, I play both Clash of Clans and Boom Beach.
I am still an active player after many years. I have gotten a really high rank many times, but after a point, I start a new game and start over. It's really more of a habit than anything, though. It's not a great game, but it serves its purpose on the crapper.😂😂
Dam I love boom beach warships ….i hope they don’t take it away 😊
The graphics is the reason i never got into boom beach. It's not that I don't like simple graphics. I play games with ASCII graphics. It's just that the art style is bad
I mean the game wasn't supposed to be extremely high quality... They are trying out different quality with the skins but I don't expect much difference
1:17 RIP dr. T
Many players leave after trying unboosted Tmeds with Forlorn Hope, then gets booted from their raged task forces and starts a tantrum, often in UA-cam. The game is fine, lots of players still on it.
Boom Beach still has a lot of potential, Supercell team or you can call Tencent team have to redirect their thoughts and tweak some changes in this game, do some marketing and advertising and it's good to go. The problem is, they're spending all their energy and new ideas to Brawl Stars, Clash Royale and Clash of clans that's why Boom Beach is getting even more downgrade as the time progresses.
Yeah, sadly for BB fans Brawl Stars is doing insanely well so it seems like all their attention is mainly on that. Hopefully they can take what's worked so well there over to their other games
i always prefered boom beach gameplay to coc, but yeah not a lot of troups, and slower progression
The last update people are getting wrecked by players with over 500 VP points.
I am at 640~ VP and yeah I do get wrecked sometimes as an HQ 22 but it is not hard for me to almost instantly regain those resources and more due to having enough resource reward and a plenty of npc bases to instantly destroy
Also why would they bother making a competitor of clash of clans if they did update it, it would be drawing away from the hype and looks tat clash of clans gets
I really loved Boom Beach but couldn't stick to it. The biggest issue for me was the single builder.
Single builder makes such a big difference, and such an easy fix to make
Me too lol😂
It is only 1 builder but at least the upgrades timers are only like 1.5 days at HQ 22 for example whereas CoC equivalent (that would be th13/14 where upgrades are like 9 days long.
We even have boom pass now, you don't get much for f2p players but you still get free resources, including a free build token to get 1 one-time builder to work on any builder upgrade you want and classified items to skip one entire upgrade for either troops or buildings
@@Hagurmert hmm coc has 6 builders tho so in 9 days, 6 upgrades would be completed. while in boom beach, 6 upgrades would also be completed in 9 days as well making them effectively equivalent lol. i guess it's more of a psychological effect at play here. yea this also assumes you have the resources to start all 6 upgrades at once but this could be alleviated by staggering the upgrades, which should work out to have a similar efficiency. also, idk if at the higher levels of boom beach you always have the resources to keep your upgrades running non-stop.
i think this has made me reconsider coming back tho lol
Clash was easy compared to boom beach way back when but boom gave up on updates and it became boring so I switched to clash for variety.
You're welcome.
i used to play boom beach but none of my friends play it and besides clash of clans is way better
