Helsinki-based Supercell has reached out its increasingly restive fans and asked them for valuable suggestions on how to improve the hugely successful "Clash of Clans" (CoC) game. Recently, the Finnish developer has been flooded with complaints over its notorious update that left many of its diehard players extremely frustrated due to bugs that get in the way of good gaming.
As a response, Supercell promises to incorporate fans' suggestions and recommendations in future updates. One of the most highly requested enhancements include adding more quests to broaden the players' options whenever they choose to join a battle.
These are the top five recommended improvements that fans want to see added in the next Clash of Clans update (via Parent Herald):
1. More quests: Fans expect Supercell to add a number of different quests on a daily, weekly and monthly basis. With a wide array of options, gamers will not be stuck in a long and boring quests allowing them to experience other set of challenges that the game offers.
2. New Leadership Roles: Fans think that a clan co-leader is helpful to provide the clan leader some extra help in overseeing the entire team. The co-leader assumes power whenever the leader chooses to stand down. Moreover, a clan elder is also deemed useful in keeping everyone in line by deciding who gets invited, accepted, or kicked out.
3. Clan Transfer and Search: A more enhanced clan transfer and search gives players extra convenience in reaching out to friends for help whenever they need one.
4. Hero Availability: It's quite frustrating when you can't use your hero at a time of great need. Many fans recommend to make the hero usable even while being upgraded.
5. Clan Troop Bank: Getting overrun by a steady stream of attackers during a raid is a nightmare for any CoC players. This is pretty much frightening when you have no one else to turn to when everyone's offline. To get the troops needed to repeal an attack or to launch a successful raid, fans suggest a troop bank where clan members can deposit troops for future use.
Meanwhile, a Chinese consortium led by Tencent Holdings has begun distributing Supercell's games in China following the former's acquisition of the latter for $8.6 billion at a $10-billion market value. The buyout deal is hoped to increase Supercell's reach in the world's largest market for mobile games, Wall Street Journal reported.
"We want Supercell to be the world's best place for creative people to create games," said Supercell CEO, Ilkka Paananen as quoted by The Guardian. "At the same time, this new partnership offers us exciting growth opportunities in China, where we will be able to reach hundreds of millions of new gamers via Tencent's channels."
