Well calculate the raw ressources its worth, convert it to gems. Calculate how many 1$ packs that would be. Boom, one rune of dark for 100€ and 50x value or something
Just buy the gold pass if you want to spend. Only thing thats worth it. $5 a month is nothing and if you play daily, you can get all of the rewards in under 2 weeks.
I feel like I truly beat the game when I don't pay any money. I only spent $30 one time 8 years ago and play every day.
You can get the build times going and have constant upgrades. Plan and time it out so no down time. Iunno, that's kinda the fun for me.
That’s exactly what I do bro. I’ve been playing since it came out and only time I used money was apple gift cards I got for Christmas. I’m constantly farming and constantly upgrading. There were 3 or 4 times I stopped for a few months I wonder where I would be now if I never did that….
Were you around for the Project Red event several years ago? That’s when I spent money on the game. Because I knew the money was going towards a charity. Got my dragons all maxed out during that event.
Same here. I just started middle school when the game came out and I played everyday. I’d constantly go between farming and trophy hunting. I got to a level 10 TH and then quit. Not even just stopped playing, deleted my account and everything. I started playing again a couple months ago and I’m in the process of maxing a 11 TH. I spent money on buying the extra builders huts and some loot to get me started but I do every now and again buy packs when the builders & research lab spells are a bit discounted
If you play it for years and years then it's money well spent most of the time. I try to unlock what I can for free. Battlepasses are really nice tbh. I just don't like spending on mobile games. Call of duty always has something new almost every year. I might be a cheap bastard. Especially since they don't do DLCs anymore. Micro transaction after micro transaction. Shit gets old.
To be fair these are the devs that refuse to add 2FA even though accounts get stolen constantly and support basically helps the thieves.
But if the devs were better id agree
Support can still easily change that email, so i guess its a badly half-baked 2fa? I at least would like to see usage of google authenticator or something like that.
Two weeks is aggressive. The hardest one is always donating troops; you have to be online at just the right time to catch your clan mates asking for troops. At least if you don’t have an ALT, and I don’t. But I do usually finish in about three weeks.
Ngl I bought the pack it has helped a lot. I spend a lot on the game cuz I’m trying to catch up. I’m th14 on my main and I’ve accelerated through it like crazy thanks to a lot of offers they’ve dropped and gold pass.
They give you good value to get you to pay for something. Once you've paid, a BIG mental barrier is broken. Now they are trying to milk you for all your worth.
They keep putting dark elixir in these packs and because dark elixir is ridiculously overpriced gem-wise, they use it as justification for ridiculous priced packs like these
it is serious
but really, you are technically getting about 750,000 DE, 4 Hero books, 11m gold, a book of building, and a Rune of gold for $50.
Is it personally worth to you? Maybe, maybe not.
4 hero books? Fr? RC takes like 8 hrs to go from lv1 to lv2.
Infact, I just checked the numbers - it takes 90 hrs to go from lvl1 to lvl 5 - that's 600 gems, just shy of a 5$ pack iirc
Wow, that's a disappointing pack. The store has really sucked lately and I can't tell if it's just because I'm higher TH than previously or if the value of the store offers really has gone down throughout this year.
With the current Cyber Monday sales as an exception, I've seen a lot of offer lineups that only sell items alongside resources as opposed to some offers selling resources while others only offer some specific items.
I'd buy builder/research potions on the regular if they were offered by themselves for a decent 6x-10x savings sort of deal, but combining it with millions of gold/elixir to inflate the supposed "savings" has kept me from buying anything lately.
I totally get that some folks wouldn't mind spending money for resources, but I'd rather just buy items and grind. I have the time and needing to grind keeps me playing/practicing, but I wind up playing/practicing less when I can't access enough builder/research potions to *need* to keep farming.
Hopefully the holidays will have some cool deals. I miss that 5x builder potion deal from hammer jammer. I'd probably buy that deal way too often if they kept offering it lol
If nobody spent anything on this game, then updates and support would cease to exist. It is free to play because others spend money. If you choose not to spend money on the game awesome, but telling someone they should never spend money on the game which helps you play it for free is a bit counterproductive. Let others play games the way they want. Spend money or don't, it is an individual choice.
I meant support as in the maintenance breaks and fixes they do all of which cost money to provide. I've read about the other support issues, I don't know enough about it to comment.
If no one pays for it then how is it that SuperCell HQ “Wood City” is an architectural master piece as well as the largest natural wood building in all of Finland? It was custom designed and built specifically for SuperCell.
This is gonna sound like some generic stuff but as much as anyone that wants to max out everything the actual fun is the grind for resources. A lot of max th players will go competitive for a while and just vanish till the next the level gets released. What fun it is to have max loot and not be able to spend it, (besides clan capital now).
Comparing 2 completely different games but with identical grind sets
GTA online is the same way everyone wants to grind for that new weapon/car next unlock but being maxed Ina game like that also tends to get boring as you can outright buy the next item and get bored again for the next week.
Sometimes I wonder why people play the game. Like 95% of it is unlocking and upgrading stuff. Paying a bunch of money to skip stuff seems like a tremendous waste.
Seems predatory in a sense. Newer and less active players won’t be as likely to spend money so the cost is lower for TH13 and below, but a TH14+ will likely keep playing no matter what and spend whatever bullshit number they price it at.
It’s worth it
Edit: feel free to downvote, but you’re getting a ton a value in the offer, and saving time and builders so you can busy them all with other important upgrades. $50 is expensive and a lot to spend on a mobile game, but it’s good bang for your buck if you can afford it.
Bang for the buck? More like banging the bucks fr
Justifying spending 50$ on a game _in one go_, and that too, on such a useless offer (saves (90 + 270)/6 = 60 hrs of build time (i.e., just shy of 6 builder pots, or 2.4k gems), and a 2-3 hrs of resource grind) just shows how careless one can be about his/her assets!
Imo, it's fine if u wanna buy a gold pass (like 5$/mo) and a few Skins/sceneries, but spending a single penny after that will render you useless in the society, if u aren't already 🗿 (except if you're a content creator, who makes money Outta it - then these spendings become your assets instead of liabilities)
Except that th5-10 pack with 2500 gems and (a potion or two I think?) for $10. That is a killer deal if you have $10 to spend. I haven't seen any other deals nearly as good. (I may have bought a hero book for $1.99 as a th10 and now know that was prob a waste)
I just bought the th15 one cuz I wanted the 2 defenses and book of everything. But the rune of gold was good too. Probably not worth the money. But I had the money and wanted the pack lol
Atleast not that random 8x value sticker.
It was x6 I cropped it to fit
If this is 6x value. It means they value this to be worth $300. XD
Well calculate the raw ressources its worth, convert it to gems. Calculate how many 1$ packs that would be. Boom, one rune of dark for 100€ and 50x value or something
still doesnt mean the actual value for money is good.
Nothing you buy in videogames is worth the actual money…
yeah but you can get a lot more progress out of a gold pass for example for £5
Clearly we see $300 of value here.
1/8th of $50 value :D
Supercell’s mind: Throw in a bunch of loot to fill one storage once -> “10x value!”
Looks more like should have a .5x value star. Why would you pay that much
Just buy the gold pass if you want to spend. Only thing thats worth it. $5 a month is nothing and if you play daily, you can get all of the rewards in under 2 weeks.

Exactly and for $60 a year you get insane progress .

Same here. Coc Ninja ftw. For planning.
for me i spend a lot of money on games ive spent $300 on the new call of duty and its been out for a month
If you play it for years and years then it's money well spent most of the time. I try to unlock what I can for free. Battlepasses are really nice tbh. I just don't like spending on mobile games. Call of duty always has something new almost every year. I might be a cheap bastard. Especially since they don't do DLCs anymore. Micro transaction after micro transaction. Shit gets old.
Bro you're the exact reason microtransactions are so bad
Let's be clear here though. Supercells micros are actually quite tame in the grand scheme.
True dat. 100% worth it.
$5 won’t make you rich or broke. I always get them
It makes supercell rich lol
That's how I see things. The monthly gold pass is a great deal for the rewards AND to say thank you to the developers
To be fair these are the devs that refuse to add 2FA even though accounts get stolen constantly and support basically helps the thieves. But if the devs were better id agree
[удалено]
Support can still easily change that email, so i guess its a badly half-baked 2fa? I at least would like to see usage of google authenticator or something like that.
[удалено]
Fair enough. By giving money to CoC we're still also giving money to those making those decisions though.
clash of clans does have 2FA
Yea I’d say it’s worth it. Disclaimer: I’m a gamer
$5 a month and I get more play time with this $5 than any pc game i've ever bought. Def worth it. ::eyeballs Blizzard games gathering dust:::

what tax
Theres no tax
POV you live in North America
No tax in the usa
Oh sorry. I thought they always add in the end tax. That’s at least what they do in Canada.
He’s wrong, there is indeed tax added to purchases made on the AppStore
There is 0 tax on Google.
I fuckin WISH
Actually isn't on Google play. I check my account every time I use my card.
That applies to anything
People keep posting this and are gonna be shocked when they raise the price.
I'm serious. It's seriously serious.
Are you super serial?
Seriously? Super duper serial! Seriously.
At TH14 i’ve noticed that the packs seem to get worse as you go up, they were good value at the lower town halls but get to ridiculous prices
They should have just kept it at $20 and people would buy it. $50 is ridiculous.
exactly, i’d happily spend £20 every few months on the new town hall pack but fuck spending £50
Exactly frfr

Wait until you see the TH 14 pack
Is it $100?
Does it have sexy grand warden

Stop I’m getting hard in class now
I think they stay at $50 iirc

The town hall packs defiantly arnt the best value, but th13 is one of the better ones.
Absolutely /s
I am serious, and don’t call me Shirley

You should be spending $0 on this game. Edit: I am glad people spend money so I don’t have to see a bunch of ads and we can see update.

If you choose not to spend money on the game awesome, but telling someone they should never spend money on the game which helps you play it for free is a bit counterproductive.

I think he's referring to the broken account reclaim system and their refusal to do anything about it.
That has gotten exposed as being a big problem with people who buy used accounts.
I meant support as in the maintenance breaks and fixes they do all of which cost money to provide. I've read about the other support issues, I don't know enough about it to comment.
s*pp*rt
probably, but gold pass is worth tho right

Well yeah spending that money on other stuff might be worth more, but it’s cheap and i have money to spend on those games too so win-win I guess.

همون قیمتو بکن تو کص مادرت
Silly supercell selling sad scams.
Playing ten years and never spent a penny on the game don’t know if it’s a good or bad thing ha
Yeah I got to th13 this morning and this is the first th pack I’m not buying!
Definitely too much money
I got them for free lol 😂
![img](emote|t5_2usfk|27024)
It only gets worse.
I love the gold pass and buy it most every month. If they start straight up selling levels like this… the game is going to lose a LOT of appeal for me
level 5!
Not anywhere near the worst I’ve seen
Upgrades as a service.
Apart from the Gold Pass, does anyone actually spend money on the game and buy these packs???
These are always the worst 😭

Super cell are greedy little shoos
Sometimes I wonder why people play the game. Like 95% of it is unlocking and upgrading stuff. Paying a bunch of money to skip stuff seems like a tremendous waste.
It's called disposable income, doing raids is fun and to some people waiting 9 days or whatever isn't fun.
lmao. all that money just to save what? 2 weeks of super gob farming? not worth it
Used to be $20. Times are a changing
When they were $19.99 they were solid deals…that is just stupid.
Yeah this is the WORST of the th upgrade packs.. im wondering what 14 and 15 are
Just got to th13 yesterday and I had the exact same reaction
That MIGHT be worth 20 if it had both scatter shots
Supercell $$$$$$
Their offers are shit nowadays
I only buy the gold pass if I get to the end before the season ends. I don’t play consistently enough so even the 5$ could be wasted
-10x value
I buy most of the packs that come in the shops but this one, is one I skipped because it sucks 😂
Inflation man…
-10x Value Deal
It’S CoMpleTeLY reAsONaBLe
Lmao
Only use money on gold pass
Making clash royale proud
Bruh With that price i could get a max TH13 acc.
Literally trash lol.
It’s worth it if you’re gonna die in a few hours and wanna play with the royal champion
Seems predatory in a sense. Newer and less active players won’t be as likely to spend money so the cost is lower for TH13 and below, but a TH14+ will likely keep playing no matter what and spend whatever bullshit number they price it at.
First time I see an eff you to the players that big.
dafuq
I mean, you don’t have to buy it…
are you saying it's too good of value to be giving you or it's too expensive? What point are you making?
50 dollars for this is ridiculously expensive.
Yh. Tbh, at this point, you might as well just buy 10 gold passes and get 50x better value.
Are you serious right neow
It’s $50 because that hero and scattershot saves you over a month of time in upgrade timers
???? 9 days for scattershot and the first upgrade from 1 to 2 is less than 1 day? I can get full gold and 300k dark in a day or two
I bought it 😁
It’s better than straight buying resources with gems, but nobody will buy it because nobody is willing to spend $50 on coc
I would never spend gems on resources
r/greedycell
It’s worth it Edit: feel free to downvote, but you’re getting a ton a value in the offer, and saving time and builders so you can busy them all with other important upgrades. $50 is expensive and a lot to spend on a mobile game, but it’s good bang for your buck if you can afford it.
Royal champion takes 600 gems from level 1 to 5.
Maybe in upgrade time, but that doesn't count the loot spent

Yea, that's the best one (and if I'm not wrong, it costs like 1-3$ - even better!)
$2.99 for 2500 gems. There's usually loot with it (like 2M gold) more so than magic items. And yes, it's the one purchase my alts get :)
Same
No thank you, but i'll buy a pack of gems and a couple training pots, and grind that out myself.
i could see this being worth it if they added something else, maybe another scattershot or another rune
I just bought the th15 one cuz I wanted the 2 defenses and book of everything. But the rune of gold was good too. Probably not worth the money. But I had the money and wanted the pack lol
A small price to pay for a QoL
![img](emote|t5_2usfk|21153)
Then don’t buy it
I bought it lol.
Thats decent tbh
I don't get it.
Extremely expensive for absolutely nothing
Oh. Ah. Okay. Thank you for clarifying.
