If you have never heard of Clash of Clans before now, you must have been living under a rock at the bottom of the ocean the last few years. It happens to be one of the most downloaded, popular mobile games that you can play these days. Developed back in 2012 as a freemium mobile MMO strategy video game, Clash of Clans has been growing ever since. You might have seen the commercials on television and even some ads on other mobile games that are similar.
The game is developed by Supercell, which is based in Finland, and it has been available for iOS since 2012 and it was released for Android on the seventh of October in 2013. The game has plenty of positive reviews with critics giving very high scores for graphics and overall gameplay. Clash of Clans was one of the top five most downloaded games in the App Store for December 2012 and May 2013 and by the end of 2013 Clash of Clans and Hay Day brought in more than $800 million together for Supercell.
With more than eight million active players each day, Clash of Clans is also watched very closely when changes are made for the game. In a recent update that came to players last month, the way that resources were acquired was changed and that left a lot of daily players with a sour taste in their mouth about the game.
Most complained that the update seemed to favor players that had access to buy gems to further their gameplay passed those that did not have the same chance. Because of that update, there will be another very soon and this one is going to bring some fixes to the game, as well as new feature that are aimed at enhancing overall gameplay.
If you are going to have a game that has this many players on a daily basis that is making more than $2 million each day, you will have to watch how you update it if you do not want the players leaving in droves over complaints and other complications. There is no official release date for the update, but sources claim it will be in the next week or two.
The new update is going to bring a new improvement called Star Bonus. Supercell said improvements were on the way and this is one. The Star Bonus is going to impact those that play each day. Completing daily goals is going to offer you a bonus in resources. Another improvement coming is called Treasury. This will be stored in the Clan Castle and now you will be able to store your most treasured resources like the Loot Cart, Star Bonus and more.
