They are bored and want to play again

I redownloaded the game last week after not playing for years, apparently everyone is doing the same
same bro. I played this game in 2018-2019 and i got all the way to town hall 9 but i stopped playing it and i started playing it again about a week ago (i have 7 town hall level now)
I downloaded it again but unfortunately lost my th12 acc n i just don't wanna start all over again
You didn’t mention the major reason to downfall is Global Chat
It was a right decision to remove global chat ....as it used to expose toxicity of players around the world
@@sourabhSharma-nr1dwlol I don’t understand how people can’t handle online abuse 😂
@@Sarmad-125 majority of the people playing at the time were either childer under 10 or teens, supercell was gonna have trouble if the game and online hate kept growing
4:41 2 steps ahead supercell is always 2 steps ahead
Two steps ahead, I am always two steps ahead. This has been the greatest social experiment I've come to know, certainly the greatest of my entire life. It's alluring, It's compelling. It's gripping to bear witness to observe all these unwell, unbalanced, disoriented beings roam the internet in search of stories. In search of...ideas. Of conflict, of rivalries. Where people develop a distinctive desire for direct engagement where people feel involved with the stories and therefore become product of influence. Thirsty for distraction, from time spent from lackluster lifestyles spoiling their minds while stimulating at the exact same time. It's brilliant, but it's also dangerous. It's dangerous. I feel as if my life has been positioning to where I'm monitering ants, on a ant farm. One follows another... follows another... follows another. It's, it's mesmerizing, it's enthralling, it's spellbinding. just look at all these consumers, all of these lost and bored people, consuming anything that they're told to consume. I am the villain. I make myself one, and people will consume these stories year after year after year. Stories that, the stories that shock, that confuse, stories that are deliberately made to blur the boundaries between fact and fiction. Stories that permite, infect, and linger. In the minds of the ants. Influence the ants, brainwash the ants. You, are the ant. I woke this morning to money deposited into my account for simply not doing something. For simply going through with something. People are the most fucked up creatures on this planet. And you will continue to consume and I'll continue to be two steps ahead. Today, I thought it would be a splendid idea to go out and get some food. Gee, are you surprised? Have you forgotten the story? Are you not paying attention? After all you're here to consume, are you not?
@@ClashNork reason is simple they are not listening to old players we want global chat supercell only needs money nowadays greedy i know your restrictions you can't talk about that you will get blacklisted for talking about greedy supercall
40€ scenery 💀💀💀 but The events are fire
I mean the scenery is worth it, the said that it took months to design it
Bro for 40€ you can buy a whole as video game that took years to make and not just a background @@just_hanys
@@just_hanys bro they would make as much or more profit if that costs 20€ and if the desing Team is as good as I think the desing took many 1 Month. I feel like the bigger issue was getting it to run on mobile
@@JuliusLinkrer but the work on the scenery take long time and clash team neads funding to create more good updates
The reason no body hates this game is
1) They listen to player feed back and work fast on it
2) Its not pay to win , so everyone enjoys it
3) Most of the player base is very helpfull
@@alpha-echoseven if it’s pay to win you still have skill based matchmaking so you’ll attack people your own level unless you trophy push
Played from 2012-2015. Just came back and enjoying once again!
I started playing clash of clans about 3 months ago and today i got to town hall 10(i was a fully maxed town hall 9),and i gotta say the game is very F2P friendly atleast for these lower town halls,and they keep on doing events like the sneaky goblin event that just happend that boost player progression alot
@@icy2kmobile648even with gold pass?😭 I’m going to th10 in a few days
@@ursensitiveinagayway4016it’s gonna get pretty slow around th12. Make sure your in an active clan doing wars and clan capital to make sure you have other parts of the game to focus on besides farming for loot. And don’t be afraid to take a break
Coc is f2p at all townhall
It's just pay 2 progress fast at higher townhall but the new update just might tackle that issue too coz the walls were the big obstacle and with the new looting %age from collectors and storages being increased it will slightly pull back from pay 2 progress
If they got me playing the game again they are doing something right.
i just returned a few weeks ago after like 4-5 year break. this game is refreshing and the boosts and stuff help. not many people have time for 12 year games but with the season passes and the return boosts and town hall upgrade boosts and the consistent updates for town hall upgrades and clan activities. I'm fully back into this game.
When you returned, was your hero equipment same level as the ability of Heroes before you left?
@@jschannel2892 So, do you remember if they were all level 1 when you started playing now ?
people can say what ever they want… clash of clans is literally the best mobile game, been playing it for years and i’ve never found a game that can compete with it
the minispotlight event isn't that F2P friendly... with the amount of medals you get you can only get some loot... not even an obstacle nor a skin
But you get a lot of free resources / gems / magic items, free super goblins for the whole event, 50% of all troop training times (!). I am very happy with it.
True! I haven’t played this game for nearly 5 years but now in 2024 maybe all this algorithm of youtube just make me play this game again
Whenever i starts playing clash of clans ,this game is on peak ,i started again 3 months ago , now they are regaining their glory back
If they bring back global chat the game will explode over night like if you agree.
@@aanavnayak3130 yeah at least give us co leaders and leaders a private chat to talk about our members kicking ect
I just noticed my files got corrupted when uploading to youtube, sorry for the small glitches in the video. I'm really angry because some animations I worked on are missing
:(
From playing this game since 8th grade now i am doing post graduation still its there in my phone..
Clash of clans is so back and seeing many new youtubers for this game too is great,
Biggest reason of comeback is returning of opd players who shifted to pubg and free fire I'm also the one in 2019 i was on th8 then suddenly my id lost i start again from th1 rhen i quiti t and for 5 years then after downfall of these survival games (their update sucks destroyed their game by own self) i came back and i see there are a lot of major changes now I'm playing from past months
I left COC around 2022. The game was known for simplicity and strategy, now slowly it is becoming so much complicated and kind of feels like a RPG game.
true builder hut itself was a struggle now they have introduced clan village
That's why the complexity is drip fed becoming more complex each town hall. If TH16 was just as complex as TH8 the game would be dead. It is natural for any game to become more complex as you progress to higher levels.
The simplicity is still there. You don’t really need complex strategies until like th11. And by then you might aswell start actually learning how to get good at the game since you’ve invested so much time into it. And when you get that deep into the game, the gameplay starts becoming really slow and these added events and villages add a new spark to it
I got coc in august '23 and now 1 year and nearly and month later I'm just a few days from town hall 13 and it has been such a fun journey!
6:31 The skin is not really for free to play players, they still have to pay the event pass if you want enough medals for the skin.
Great video tho, just wanted to mention this.
i just came back cuz of the time reduction, i hope they keep reducing it more... 3 years still a ton of time without spending
I'm playing COC after 10years.. My 1st surprise was, now we don't need to spend elixir for troop training.
This video feels like AI 😭
I worked 40+ hours on it, the Voice is AI, the script is from google translate as I'm not a native english speaker:)
Thank you ❤❤ sadly it wasnt exactly how i wanted especially at the start, my files got corrupted:/
I think it's thanks to me, I stopped playing in 2017 and just returned a couple months ago. I'm the main character in my story so of course the matrix makes this game popular again
It was hard keeping it in, Im glad you uploaded so I can finally let it out 😛
Nice video, as always Norken ;)
Removal of global chat is the most important factor which lead to its downfall.
Rn rushing is the meta . Quickly rush ur th to 16 and upgrade other defensive buildings. Note: troops and storages should be upgraded to max level at every th.
The mini spotlight event is dissapointing because free to play players can't get many medals, not even enough to buy an obstacle😐
i redownloaded it after 5 years just to see what happened, now i feel left behind because of builder base and other stuff which i cant understand why cant they just release new town halls instead of other bases
7:00 unfortunately , these skins not free and you must buy event pass to unlock one of them.
However That's cool update
@@Mands1989 bro it does worth every cent image having 10$ skin with 3$ + all the runes it's like a mini gold pass
True but 3 dollars for a skin and all the extra runes and gold/elixir/dark elixir it gives is insanely worth it
@@OTCLASH05 and mashup madness last year was basically free gold pass. I wouldn't say that the newest is nothing too special.
Hero equipment has given so much more life to the game. Gave people way more to do and reasons to War/attack more. Added more strategy and options for offense. Like the game WAY more now. Just need to slow down on the nerfs.
Honestly I do think that Clash of Clans over the years has aged like fine wine.
I stopped playing in 2019 and now all of a sudden i came back, recovered not only my main but 4 more alt accounts 😂, and im so addicted
It will forever be a successful game for eons 🎉
im so glad bro i love clash
Absolutely! It's been 2 years, but I'm finally getting back into the game and reviving my TH12 base. It feels great to be back in action!❤
Biggest Clash of Clans comeback = GLOBAL CHAT!!!!
I'm a player who came back like 2 months ago and so far I'm enjoying it. When I'm getting bored, they are launching new event or new season so I have new things to work on
I left this game in 2016 and started this year playing daily ❤
Supercell is better than it was in the past but being better also comes with few drawbacks like how unfair the equipments would be for new players. But now it looks like sc is trying to give new players also a chance to get the equipments for free and hope they'll bring these types of event in the future too.
The decorations and scenery being overpriced can also be a thing but at the end of the day it's just cosmetic and doesn't affect the game that much.
Been playing for years but recently i gotten back into it and started pushing again on my old account
because supercell has decided to do the one thing no other company does anymore LISTEN TO THE COMMUNITY!
Ngl this mystery event has become a mystery for SC 😂, anyways its a cool update.
Also nice video nork as always.
nah I wouldn't compare the coc chest with clash royal.. these are much more exactly the brawl stars star drops
I quit playing clash of clans in 2019 later I started playing it again from the beginning of this year⚡literally enjoying.vintage vibes.Clash of clans is the GOAT
They removed "global chat" that was a mistake
Me who came back and my friends Stop playing. It's hurts and then I made i clan . Then looking at me my friends all came back . We are running Full active clan with people of 50 people ❤️
No, I don't want this game to come back. It has caused me a lot of loss and this game should end. The downfall of this game has begun and ended. This is what I want.😌😌
I used to play the game like a decade ago. Recently came back and started anew. I have been having lots of fun playing the game
Bring clan wars like it used to in "battle of zombies" it will be in it's peak.
Abolishing the Global Chat was also the major reason for its decline
Clash of clan's team is always finding ways to give players FREE resources. They're introducing chests similar to starr drops form brawl stars to give more players rewards by just playing normally. We have so many ways to get free resources and rewards, basically giving us more ways to get free gems as well. Clash is only evolving and i hope it keeps updating.
COC start dropping because of Clash of Royale and.....
Delete Global Chat 💀
This is great and all, but let me use my heroes while they are upgrading.
As a med school student at John Hopkins SoM, my new friend in class got me back into the game after about 5 years lol.
also when they cut upgrade times by a ton which got me back in. I was going insane waiting a week for a mere cannon to level up and now it takes less than a day!
I start to play coc in 2014 and max th you can upgrade was level 10, I heard it was level 8 before that. I always adore people with th10 that time and be like wow must be hard to achieve that😂...everything was lava
That was one of the best time because after school me and my friend will prepare strategy for war. Everyone were very serious like it was a real business, we fight, we argue, we laugh and all. Soon later, I finished my school and everyone got buzy with their lives like work...go to college etc.
After that, we rarely met again and the 20 people in the clan were all silent. I left it in 2015 but then last week I opened it back again and read the last clan chat was 3353 days ago😢
Good ol days, time flew so fast man. Some of my friends already have 3 kids. So cherished these times and appreciate those you love because you'll never get the same chance it again.
I 100% agree, true words man. I Don't know if you See my reply but I wish you all the best and I mean it. I just got to college, university and its not the same anymore. I really hope you guys the best, time flies, make the most out of our lives alright? ❤❤🙌🙌
the new scenery is expensive but it is the best scenery till now in clash of clans
how did you know i was playing coc again?
are they two steps ahead?
The facts which are showing in video is absolutely right. I started playing coc after long 3 years...
i quit 5 years ago when global chat was removed, i barely returned now
now its overwhelming how much objectives players get
2 weeks ago I convinced my 8 friends whom I used to play with during 2016-2019 to comeback again and start a clan. We nine people have nearly 14 accounts. I was the only one who continued with little breaks. But now we all play together having a lvl 4 clan with a 10 war win streak. Also many players have started joining clans after the new update. The only bad thing I feel is too many Townhalls, many players are rushing due to all good things on high TH but it is the harming game. Also Tencent the Chinese company who had majority share of supercell is making not just COC but every game super expensive and pay-to-win. Clash Royale is nearly dead but I don't want Clash of Clans to die. Clash On🏴🖤
Downloaded the game in 2015 and stopped playing it for 3 years from 2019-2022.
After restarting I had lots of things to do there.
I upgraded my townhall to the max level 2 weeks ago and take my time to max everything else out.
I have the fear that it's getting less interesting when you are done with everything, because then it's just aiming for trophies.
Had the same thing with the builders base. Since there is everything done I just grab the jewels and remove the trees. I'm just attacking if the clan games are active.
But overall coc has done many things right in the last time.
I honestly quit because the active grind was horrendous, dozens of battles a day for minimal loot. I even did mass Sneaky Goblins and still didn't feel rewarded enough. Burnt out and lost skill just lead me to abandoning a game I enjoyed until it felt P2W but these updates look good for progression.
Ive been playing for twelve years and honestly i took a seven year hiatus. Ever sice the updates ive come back and ive been playing every day.
Coc is not a game its our emotion.❤
The reason is simple, I started playing again a couple months ago out of boredom and I got a bunch of people to play with me. I'm already getting bored so expect a drop soon.
I lost my main id in 2020 which I was playing since 2017, and i dropped the game as at higher townhalls it felt repetitive. But now in 2024 i installed the game again and i have the same love for the game i had in 2017. Its only been 3 days starting it again but im all for it ❤️❤️
5:18 If really they planned to put the skin in the GP anyway it's actually brilliant; they are both testing the waters to see what they can get away with and they also show to the community that they listen, it's a win-win.
i started playing in march from a brand new village after like 6/7 years. I was surprised from how easier it is to upgrade. I remember getting to th9 being a crazy grind for me. Now I went from 0 to th12 (not rushed, i wait to max every building before upgrading th) and i only spent like 10€ in total.
@@ClashNorkthanks. Btw this video's quality is crazy. I thought you were like a couple millions subs channel i felt bad discovering you only have 2k. It makes no sense that a video with quality this high only has this few views. Keep doing video like this and I'm sure that results will come with time. I'm not a native english speaker so i surely made some errors but I hope I explained myself well and you understand what I meant. Btw I just subscribed 💪💪
is it a repost from a bigger channel or what? I expect this quality from channel like havoc not from a little channel. If you made this video then you really are a great creator and deserve way more success than this, and i wish you the best luck possible for your channel.
Finally someone said it it’s understandable for a game to have pay to win do to fact that you need money to pay creators to create to content new designs and so on even then playing with out paying to win still moving quicker then ever
I re-installed the game after multiple years of not playing. It used to be upgrading building would take so many days and resources. Now the max upgrade time im getting is only 2 days. This makes the game a lot more fun to play daily
Well all things are cool but one thing is missing that below townhall 7 players can't unlock the hero skin and main equipment 😢 that is bad for below townhall players.😅
Walls are stilll nightmare to upgrade
I quit Clash in 2020 at TH12 and came back last month and I'm loving it every second of the game, the clan capital is the best addition ever! But it sucks that they made the Treasure Hunt a temporary event, it should be like the Star Bonus
in my opinion, what really keep player playing is clan wars(also for me) there are tones of stratgegy you can use on different type of base you are attacking .
Idk what it was but I just returned after not playing in 4-5 years and I started back in 204
all that's missing now is a clan capital update
When I started playing this game, TH10 was the max town hall level💙
I’ve been playing for months straight and even starting to watch clash of clans videos I’m part of a super active clan that just brings a different fun to it as well
I just got back on after 5+ years of being away. I like it again! When I left it was only up to TH12. Crazy.
Only thing now required is improvement in support system
I do also appreciate they are becoming more f2p friendly. The game nowadays is very p2w optional.
you misunderstood the event. For the skins you still need to buy the pass.
The coincidence is crazy I just came back yesterday
What Do You Think? Is the game finally back in its prime? 👀
Not yet
Now everything is money.
Nothing in this update..... You forgot to mention sponsored content
Nah
Everything since the heroe equipment update this year feels like a big final money grab. It's becoming more of a NFT-style rip-off than a real game.
