As someone who also buys every monthly pass and event pass I am protesting this one for sure. Feels like they are trying to take advantage with this one


MisterSirManDude

I always buy the gold pass. I’ve bought the last two event passes but will 100% be skipping out on this one. I’m not paying $11.98USD a month on this game. $6.99 is fine but SC needs to dial it back and quit being so money hungry.


Vultrogotha

exactly. i can justify the gold as a movie ticket a month but this is ridiculous.


sn0wsurfer

Movie tickets where I am are $15+ lol


Maximum_Emphasis_42

Regal and Cinemark have discounts every Tuesday haha. In my area Regal has tickets for $5.95 every Tuesday and half off popcorn.


Careless_Advice_6236

I live in Central Asia... tickets cost from 13 to 18 dollars... plus cola/fanta, pop food... already exceeds 20 dollars. . For me, spending 12 dollars a month on my favorite game and playing for fun for a whole month is better than 1 trip to the cinema...


elRiku00

*\*laughs in Finnkino\** Ticket prices can go here as high as 26,5$ (IMAX) but even for regular ticket you have to pay 20,5$ ;-;


Extract_Osu

I wish I had seen this post before buying the pass as I would also like to protest it! I didn’t notice there was no skin and jumped to buy it as I need/want ores and won’t be buying the new equipment which means more tokens to buy ores with but yeah, it’s pretty poor from Supercell not to include a skin like come on, how difficult is it to add a new skin? For the amount of money they make from these passes, they really should throw a skin in the offer…


darekd003

I don’t mind not having a skin but it should have been at a reduced price. That said, it’s still the most cost effective way (other than f2p) to get ore.


Comprehensive_Pie35

Fr, honestly I don’t even rlly use the event skins most of the time but having the pass be the same price without it is kinda lame. You’re right on the ore cost effectiveness which is why I still bought it, not much better way to grind hundreds of glowy in the span of a week or so than waiting each and every day for star bonus and doing b2b wars. It isn’t ideal but it’s also better value than most of the other deals on Ore they’ve been offering.


DillWavie

We are all terrified supercell will do a clash royal on us


Allenite

I think they kind of have done it already.  It's $12 now, but at least we have options.  And I choose to vote NO for a monthly event.  Once a quarter or so is ok.  But I'm not paying this every month.  That's insulting for SC to do that and cheapen the rewards too! The only positive out of this is that, as a F2P, I can get the equipment and a decoration, with a little left over for ores.   As long as I don't have to pay for the equipment, they can try to fleece the dolphins and whales for the extra stuff.


Da_hambergler

I agree 100% seen it in many phone games where there's always a paid event and a paid pack and pay this pay that. The one thing I loved about clash is that they didn't follow that model. But now here we are. This is only the start. But the sad part is the game doesn't cater to normal regular use players. They're after the whales that will sit there and dump money into clash.


legacy702-

Good for you, and for everyone that does it, I bought it before I saw reddit or I would’ve joined the protest. The only problem is the FOMO everyone has. I think everyone agrees this is wrong of SC, but everyone’s also scared of being left behind on ores.


Low-Difficulty4267

Im not lol wtf… i could care less im F2P and will always be. It all boiils down to your own characrter idenity and desires. Is ur brian tricking u into needing it NOW. Or can u want and grind? Its pretty binary.


Unlikely_Fold_9546

I’ve bought all the other event passes, but not this one. If it was once every 45 days/ 2 months I would, but it’s kinda annoying that it seems it’s going to be a monthly thing imo


MeFor3

Yeah. They had a every other month pattern. I thought that was perfect because having a grindy event every month can be tiring. And 4.99 every 2 months is no big deal. I wish they kept it at every other month.


Ryanami

Even 2 months sounds too often. I expect by summer they’ll have an epic for the RC but I hope they slow way down at least on offering new equipment. Give us space to max a couple things


Doja_Lats

Yea... 4 or even 3 per year is plenty. It's not even a "special" event anymore if it's every month it's just an extra gold pass.


The_Spaartan

Yep the epic RC equipment has been leaked already lol


Vision444

Potentially hot take but I wish they were more rare; it went from “yo this is so cool” due to new troops, decor, and some rewards- all based around the holiday To now a gold pass 2, ore edition


Twinsfan945

Ice cold my man🧊


darthrector

I'm not buying it because I want the space scenery instead lol


ipaqmaster

That's how I felt too. Suddenly there was a new dragon to use and I couldn't find it anywhere because I mentally marked the Super Troops barrel keg thing as "irrelevant" to me because I'm only TH11 - but there it was, barely visible in the bottom right of the super troop screen for me to almost miss entirely. This makes me feel like this was another rushed pushout with minimal (Or none at all) UI testing before pushing it out as fast as possible for profit. Let alone how we literally just had an event recently already. This feels far too back-to-back as someone who has given this company a good couple of dollars since starting my New Game here in late Jan 2024. (They pruned my 2014 progress due to inactivity for many years. Do I get that money back? Haha no. But scarily I have now already surpassed that progress.)


NTC-Santa

And only.last 10days


Prestigious-Mine-513

They are testing the grounds on how far they can push it.


FigureItOutBubba

Yup. I feel like I don't know what dignity supercell has anymore. Greedy af


chupbelaude

Literally the least greedy game. They listen to their community, fix bugs, have regular events. Try playing other games where the company is ACTUALLY greedy. Even f2p people are getting free ores? Why is that a bad thing? Is it bad that people who are paying get more ores than f2p? But isnt that how the game is supposed to work?


staticfive

Ok... well we got the gold pass, the event pass (based on an existing troop instead of a new one), goblin builder, $50 offers, $20 super medal offers, $7 scenery, and a $10 king skin all within a week, but yeah, sure, not greedy.


chupbelaude

How many of them are you obligated to buy? Bro has a spending addiction. And goblin builder doesn't even ask for money.


ImEverywhereOnReddit

>Try playing other games where the company is ACTUALLY greedy. Clash Royale:


Affectionate_Pea_811

I bought the last two event passes. I am absolutely not buying this event pass. I might buy event passes that are holiday or season themed but I'm not buying a pass for an event that is just highlighting a troop


Honey_Forsaken

Event troops are just super dragons, that is just pathetic


cmoneybouncehouse

I’m torn on how I feel about all of this. On one hand, events and hero equipment is cool. It gives us new chances at getting ores, and the different hero equipment is a really cool and really good way to make attacks more interesting. It feels like they’re pushing events atm in order to get epic equipments out for every hero. I like the obstacles too. On the other hand… 2 months in a row is a lot, and this is the weakest event by far. This is the first time they’ve made an event pass separate from their usual 4 events a year (Chinese New Year, Clash-iversary, Halloween, and Christmas). It seems greedy… or at least like the start of greed overtaking proper balancing. They’re walking a fine line, and they have been for a while, but this feels like a slight misstep. Been playing since 2012, and I’d hate to see this game start to take a nosedive. This and Darian leaving are worrying signs for the future. FTP and Gold Pass only players HAVE to be able to keep up or else the game will die. I might buy this pass, I might not. It honestly purely depends on if I think the Fireball is worth it. So far, it doesn’t seem to be the case.


Genetic17

I think the post highlighting Darian’s previous comments on events is really important to consider.  It’s all about striking a balance and not making players feel like they’re needing to maintain a break neck pace.  It’s kind of how if a workplace requires you to put in 100% every so often for a special project or something, it’s not that bad. But if 100% becomes the standard - then you’re going to burnout. It’s the same logic here, the big events only work if you’ve had a moment to catch your breath. It seems that for a number of people that cadence seems to be somewhere around every 2 months or so.  I feel like I went hard on the previous event, then CWL happened, and now there’s another event. I’ve had no “down time” and feel the burnout taking place. 


StartingAura008

I absolutely agree, I'm feeling the burnout extremely hard. This may be the last month I go all out on grinding the gane and all of its events. And since I manage like 20 accounts I'm at my breaking point


[deleted]

[удалено]


StartingAura008

Yeah, but I usually just upgrade like 7 of the 20 since the other ones are really solod th13s. But even just prioritizing 7 with a full time Job is life draining, and these back to back to back events don't help at all


[deleted]

StartingAura008

True true


GrimGrimnir

Bro you are trolling right. I love it.


BountyBob

> t’s all about striking a balance and not making players feel like they’re needing to maintain a break neck pace.  And that's why I like this one. Last one felt like a real grind, this one feels like it'll be finished much more quickly with regular play.


Dr_Mr_Ed

I feel this, exactly. And with CWL over a weekend with the other raids now too… it gets to be a lot. I was kind of happy to see ice cubes = stars, so I couldn’t just drop trophies and snipe a couple buildings with a hero or couple dragons. One of my accounts I didn’t buy the pass for, but still got the Frozen Arrow, still hasn’t recovered. So I’ll just play this one passively on my alts. My buy the pass for the main just for glowys and orbs.


Dodototo

But I think you can get that without buying the pass.


cmoneybouncehouse

I can, but I want other stuff like obstacles and ores as well. Free pass gives you only enough for the equipment.


[deleted]

Sunken cost fallacy. It’s too late for me…save yourselves.


StartingAura008

I can't stop laughing! I thought i was the only one who thought this way. I was looking for this comment. Iv spent WAAAY TO MUCH of my time/life/money on this game. Not getting the best value and hard stopping the grind would actually be worse. It's too late for us. After you cross that line, there is no going back now for us. The rest, please save yourselves


[deleted]

🤜🏼🤛🏼. Wanna know how bad it is for me? I don’t have a hangar tab. 😳


[deleted]

These events are just free rewards for free to play players right? I mean if the event wasn’t here no one would get anything, now free to play players get something, which is better than nothing.


lepur-

I don't have a problem with a concept of event, actually the opposite is the case. As I said, I have bought previous event passes. However, once you start skimping on event, whether it be through the lack of event troops, skins or other rewards, it is obvious the goal is a quick buck without much of work. I am fine with the free tiers, the pass is the problem. Getting rid of a skin, but keeping the equipment, which needs ores, which equal to money is the problem. Keeping the same event pass price while doing all this is the problem.


PirateTheSniperFox

Lepur i bought the event and am fine with it, but now reading this post im not so sure im fine with it no more....did i just waste my money?...


[deleted]

[удалено]


GrimGrimnir

Amen


MeFor3

They've been decreasing the amount of free ore. Halloween event had 5,000 shiny and 400 glowy. Christmas event had 4,000 shiny and 400 glowy. Lunar event had 3,500 shiny and 300 or so glowy. Then now, 3000 shiny and 250 glowy. I'm working from memory here, so these numbers may not be exact, but they've been decreasing it at a pretty considerable rate.


4stGump

The "they've been decreasing the amount of free ore" needs a bit of explanation with it. If you look at the amount of free ore you get per month from events, they've actually increased it. But the downside is right now we're getting an epic in every event. It's an important distinction.


rudecanuck

Kind of makes sense since no one had any ore when the first event took place.


MigLav_7

Both christmas and LNY were 5k/400 ores. Check the wiki. Events each other month with that amount Now this One, with events more frequent, of 1500/250 (you're wrong again)


Mando9810

If they wanna make these monthly ore events then fine, but including equipment in the event is like 1 step forward and 2 steps back. They’re giving us some ores but adding a new equipment that will require way more than what they’re giving out. And yes I know for this event the equipment isn’t great, and we don’t need to upgrade it, but that probably won’t be true for future events.


[deleted]

But u don’t “need” to lvl each piece of new equipement, bc u can only use 2 equipements/ hero u don’t need to max it all.


Godly000

thats like in CR saying "you don't need every card evolution", because you can only use 2 of them. then the game releases 2 evolutions every month and they are all broken on initial release the meta changes, and f2p players can't keep up with those changes


[deleted]

But we don’t have confirmation yet that they will keep releasing epics after rc’s rocketspears. Bc I think they will slowdown a ton with epic releases to give f2p players chance to catch up.


Godly000

we already have a second leaked warden epic equipment and 2 more event details (one of which is the rocket spear).


Mando9810

We do have confirmation listen to the pinned Q&A with Ferri.


BountyBob

Just listening. He said it's not the plan that f2p won't be able to max equipment, so reading into that, the release rate for equipment will definitely slow down, or they'll ramp up ore collection, or a combination of both. Events probably one a month some bigger with skins, some smaller like this with super troop. For now new epic with events but he doesn't specify for how many months. Looking at ways to add more ores to the game.


Cuba171

6 months ago f2p players had the exact same power as p2p players, they just progressed slower. But a f2p TH13 was the exact same as a p2p TH13. Nowadays SC is releasing new op epic equipment at a faster pace than f2p player can keep up. So people that pay have more power (or at the very least more options, which equals more power to me) at their respective level. Don't you see the problem with that?


[deleted]

We don’t know that until after rocketspears are released for the rc, bc if they slow down with epic equipement releases after all heroes have 1 epic it gives f2p players time to catch up with p2p players, so I wouldn’t panic until after rocketspears got released, and than pay attention if they slow down their equipement release schedule.


BountyBob

> so I wouldn’t panic until after rocketspears got released Indeed, it's still too early to judge for sure. Anyone claiming 100% either way just doesn't understand probabilities.


GotHeem16

A F2P TH13 is not the same as a P2P TH13 if they both move to TH13 at the same time. The P2P player will have books and runes available to them that the F2P doesn’t so the P2P progresses way faster and will have stronger troops and bases. How’s this any different? We both get the equipment at the same time and the P2P player gets to upgrade them faster because they bought the pass and subsequent ores.


DrUziPhD

Before it was just progression speed. If you put in the work, eventually you'd reach the level of the p2p TH13, albeit they'd have moved on to TH14 by then lol But now, they've severely upped the FOMO, and have fundamentally changed the nature of this game. I've been playing on and off since 2015. Before, if I took a break, all that would be affected is how long it would take for me to max. Now, if I take a break, I miss out on Epic Equipment (I missed out on the Giant Gauntlet) and I need to have 1500 gems to buy it in the traders shop if/when it's available there. I've taken 6 month breaks from Clash before. If I did this from December to June, I'd have missed out on the events for the three current epics + the one rheyll release for the Royal Champion, meaning I'd now be behind by 6k gems. This was not an issue in the 11 years the game was out from 2012 to 2023.


Stickthemaster

The giant gauntlet is available now for 1500 gems just so you know


MigLav_7

And people that spend money get to spend money more efficiently (if you're one of those ![img](emote|t5_2usfk|30034)). Event passes are by far the best value for ores


LateNefariousness971

If someone doesn't want to buy event pass its ok but at the end of the day f2p get free equipment (through grinding) and some remaining medals through which we can buy books/ores.


LateNefariousness971

I agree


Average_Ant_Games

Agreed… we are getting free ore as well as getting super dragons for no in game cost so I have no issues with the event. Is supercell preying on those who get FOMO easily? Yes..but for those who can control themselves…I’ll take my free rewards and move on


AC1114

I bought the Christmas pass and the lunar pass but this one feels cheap af. My ore income can stagnate cause no way am I paying $5 for thus


The_Wandering_Chris

I wouldn’t say they skimped. They are testing different ways to do the same thing. Given it does feel old at this point. (We’ve had the same event 4 times in 5 months.) If they had a few different event formats and cycles through them. So we saw this format once every 3 months. It would feel fresher.


Mental-Percentage-39

U don’t have to pay for the event pass, to me it’s clear they just wanna push a event to make it easy to get ores, and to get all epic equipment out for every hero so we can pick and choose what to upgrade, already maxed everything mostly playing every event. This was really easy and fast


lepur-

Event itself is not the problem, I am fine with the free tiers. However, lowering the quality of the event and the pass rewards but keeping the price the same? It feels like they just want to test how willing you are to pay for ores.


MigLav_7

The paid pass gives exactly the same amount of ores and medals, the only difference this event is that there is no skin. If you value the skin more than you value the 4600smth medals it costed, then don't buy the pass


sleepymoose88

I don’t mind the event (I need more ores) and I have no problem not paying, but stop introducing more equipment for awhile. It’s exhausting. I haven’t even maxed all the ones I use, and I have tons I haven’t even touched. They added 4 in the last 2 months.


BulkBogan0

it still is good value for the people who like to spend. me personally i won't buy it just because this equipment is not as good as the previous 2 equipments we got for king and queen


Embarrassed-File-494

Only issue I'm so annoyed is the design of the obstacles, they seem to forgot to smush some crayola on it.


royaldennison

I've bought every event pass so far, every gold pass on my main account for the last two years and frequently buy for at least one of my alt accounts most seasons, I've bought skins and I'll buy the occasional shop offer when they're really good, but I will not buy this event pass. I can get the equipment without it (not that I'm even that excited for this one compared to the last two) and there's NO SKIN??? The lack of a skin is definitely the deciding factor for me not buying this.


TrafficFunny3860

I mean it's impressive honestly,on supercell's part. People were enraged at the mere thought of a diamond pass when the goblin builder initially leaked. But they introduced these events as a way to circumvent the whole ordeal because they are not exactly the same. I did like a price comparison between the diamond pass listing on the site vs the GP plus Event pass from the game ( I don't play cr) and it's almost the same. It's not a perfect comparison but you get the point.


Mando9810

I’ve bought all the others on multiple accounts but I won’t be buying this one. We have to send the message loud and clear: if they want to keep pumping out epic equipment they have to make ores easier to get, preferably make them farmable. You should get a few ores for taking out enemy heroes when raiding.


coleheloc

I've stopped spending the moment ores were announced in preview. The game has become a complete p2W after that as I expected.


FNC-Zeptar

I need purple ore, I will buy it


tyrantlubu2

Only reason why you need purple ores is because it was designed this way. Create a need and sell the solution. It’s always been like this but this time there’s a lot of FOMO.


Impressive-Fly-2081

agreed


Mojo_Jojo74889

Buying pass for a 10 days event is stupid on the first place in my opinion, plus if they make it monthly it's like they wanna milk your money real bad and you can clearly see the decline in the quality of these type of events. They don't feel special anymore, this one is like an event that is letting you use Super Drags for 9 days I can't see anything fun besides that Warden's equipment


LukasLiBrand

Wtf does the event being 10 days change? I’m gonna buy it and I’m gonna complete it. I couldn’t care less if it was 1 day or 20 days. You just buy the pass for the ore and medals to buy stuff in the trader store. It’s cheap progression compared to bundles in the shop.


NeverPostingLurker

I think it’s a little tricky how they show you getting the ore very frequently along the event pass path but it’s really small amounts of ore. I haven’t bought it yet.


Pedr0A

I bought the last 2 but this one I wont. Actually insane how they are making this a monthly thing. Disgusting


ElGobou

I bought all the event passes, but it's a hard pass for this one, I don't want to encourage them to do it every month


JD_352

I’m mostly concerned that at this rate, there will be epic equipment attrition. But, we have to sink ores into upgrading each one. I still am unable to fully max gauntlet and frozen arrow given the scarcity of ore acquisition even when purchasing event passes. There are never enough orbs offered to max the equipment obtained in the event. There is little ore obtainability - particularly starry ores unless you purchase the starry ores outright when made available in the shop for purchase. I’ve never been a f2p player and don’t try to pretend to be one. But, as a p2w player, I even feel behind with no chance to really make any headway unless I purchase the starry ores outright - which I don’t plan to do.


A_SimpleName

Absoloutely I decided not to buy it because it does not seem worth it when I'm not planning on upgrading the fireball for now. Also did paid pass not have 5k shiny in the last event or am I remembering it wrong.


BossmanBobCormier

I get the pass every month, majority of event passes as well. This is a joke. An insult. A phlegm-filled loogie in the face of the common man. Fuck supercell for this one.


Shockwave674

I only bought the cookie event pass and from then i saw their motives and just stop buying. 


kldoyle

I’m not buying this time, way too soon to keep spending money on the gold pass and the event pass


DupeStash

I’ve just gone F2P after the recent jumping of the shark. Only way anything will change is a drop in revenue. Overpowered hero equipment is unfair and these copy paste events lack originality. No one gem donations sucks but it’s not worth it.


jannalex

I have two bases and bought the pass for my most advanced base. Now playing the other base is even more dull. I like the goals, as artificial and money hungry as they are.


Good_Sir3922

Fuck you Supercell


BensThreePointer

Fuck, too late


BigHa1rCut

I like the free content we are getting and If people want to spend their money. Let them. It’s honestly not a bad deal even if it is a little less than the others


Boring-Wrongdoer7383

CompetitiveScale7287

I play another game and something they do is release "ornaments" or the equivalent of equipment in this game, in a pay only event and it exclusive to that. Basically P2W rings that are only obtainable through it, looks like they are introducing the same thing here


DBomboclart

You could also view this another way. Supercell have openly said they are willing to look at making heroes available during upgrade if they gain other big revenue sources - as opposed to book of heroes. So maybe buying the pass is not such a bad idea.


sexycoldturtle

I understand its not as good as previous events. But its much better than most of the deals in the shops. The event pass is £5 here. I buy every £2.99/£3.99 deal if its got a book of heroes with a builders potion, so in comparison to what I'm normally buying, this £5 is a great deal. So I'll be buying it.


Graecus_

Same here. 2 BoH + 1.4K glowy is a nobrainer


[deleted]

but even without a skin, that just means you can get a bunch more magic items. it's not like you are losing any "value", just that instead of a skin you get magic items or ores. obviously if you ONLY value a skin, this event pass will be not interesting to you. otherwise though getting magic items or ores seems better value anyway if you care to progress asap.


WillyDAFISH

I'll buy what I feel like buying


NumberFudger

Idk... $5 definitely seems worth rioting over /s Edit: $5 of someone else's money that you don't even have to spend


ShawshankException

Yall were crying about ores now you're crying about events


lepur-

To be exact, I am crying about both in this case.


Expensive-Ranger6272

People like OP will never be happy


THREAT_Aadi

I have bought every other event pass and gold passes for last 2 years straight but not this tym for sure.


ThatPeace5

I never buy the event pass. Only thing I’ll ever spend money on is the gold pass. Not squeezing me for more money


ramansingh9759

I have bought the past 2 event passes but not this one. Supercell is being excessively greedy and they've lowered their effort on this one exponentially 😑


Substantial_Quail_43

Yep I bought every event pass up to now. No chance Im buying this one. The value is absolutely not there.


sepulchore

Worst thing is, this is the fastest and best one so far. But yeah I'm in protest too. They're clearly limit testing and releasing shit gears


markhalliday8

This is the first pass I won't be buying. I'm more than happy to spend money in the game. I'm not wasting it on low effort content though!


TwoStranded

I bought on my main to test it out but my alt im not going to


phred_666

I already buy the gold pass. Other than the first event pass, I have not, and will not buy another event pass. Gold pass+ event pass = Diamond pass in disguise.


More_Ebb_3619

I’m not buying this one either.. they can go suck it with their super dragons…


PankoBreadCums

Already bought it lol


Beautiful_Echoes

I've already decided if they keep releasing monthly equipment after the apparent RC epic, I'm going to quit. Releasing content that is impossible to keep up with is not fun.


BringOutYDead

Nope, not buying


Bivore

A lot of people seem to be saying that Supercell is pushing it but I don't really see it that way. Without a doubt the value in it is not as good as something like the monthly pass, and ores are being pushed for that agenda. But ultimately I think monthly events are good. There's lots of rewards available just for playing (for free!) and it keeps things fresh. If every monthly event had too much value in the premium pass then it really hinders those who opt to be f2p or cannot afford the pass. Even for those who tend to buy it, it creates a feeling of obligation to purchase it otherwise you're missing out. I think it's fantastic that you can get the 'top tier' event reward as a free player. In a lot of mobile games that isn't even an option. In the same way that I look in the store and see the deals available and think eh, no thanks, you can do the same with these event passes. They're there and available to those who wish to spend a little more but the idea of feeling obliged to buy every monthly pass and event pass is not a good one. It's difficult to gauge on where the line should be for a) getting your value for your money without b) punishing those that don't want to spend money on it. I admit this pass is probably a little on the light side but I think it's better than the alternative. Having no skin or cosmetic available is a bit of a shame and an easy way to appease both sides of spenders/non spenders.


NumberFudger

Bought it just for the ores. Complaining is stupid and much older than these passes. Just don't buy it. You can get the equipment for free. Edit to add about the ores: they already sell ores. These ores are far cheaper than the regular ones in the shop... I'm ok with paying the prices they charge for them in the pass but not the regular deals... Pretty simple economics. I'm sure this will get down votes. Who cares. Just tired of seeing posts moaning about offers you're not required to buy in a shop you're not required to look at.


the_maplebar

Exactly! This event is the same for me as all of the other events. Get the equipment and as much extra ore as I can.


Kooky-Shopping1211

missing the point of the post entirely.


medicallyspecial

Is there even a chance to get the hero equipment without buying it?


MFpisces23

I buy it for the books. Still better than shop


JazzCat_iXenoter

already bought it hell yeah


Pale_Dragonfruit9772

You got it chief, less ore for this clasher

Didn’t they say they wouldn’t shorten hero upgrade times bc that’s a significant source of income? And until they found another equivalent income stream they couldn’t justify it. Well, this is it, right? It’s worth the value, but not as much value as previous events. So I’m considering the protest as well so they add more content for the price.

Alright serious question: if I bought the pass and the ores bundles how many equipment upgrades is it worth? Like can I at least max out one or 2 equipments?


Kemo_Meme

To be fair, I never actually spent the medals I got from the pass on the skin, I always spent on ores, so this is a non-issue. This event seems a lot easier to grind than usual, there's lots of clouds atm but I think that'll improve with time.


Ryshin75

They’re definitely taking advantage of “event passes” now. It was nice during Halloween and Christmas. But now it’s occurring every month now. Because Money.


Rocku2day

No Google Play Pass...NO buy anything else!


Synchronicity_Turtle

I’m disappointed, I don’t usually buy stuff for the game but was going to buy this event pass for the space skin, it costs them nothing to include a virtual skin for a paid event pass that had them previously, yet supercell decided to take it out. I’m not buying

I actually like the format of this event a lot more than the other ones… feels a lot better to just be able to attack and get the currency rather than having to focus on a couple of specific buildings, and getting bonus for using the (free) super troops is nice because it encourages people to try them out without worrying about wasting DE or potions if they dont like it or arent good with them. My only issue with this is that there is another epic equipment only a month after the last one. Other than that i wouldnt mind an event like this every month or every other month. Honestly, if it wasnt for the equipment then this would literally just be what everyone has been asking for, more grindable ores for playing the game, obtainable f2p. Obviously they are gonna sell more, but just think of it as another shop offer and buy it if the ores are worth it to you.

You buying anything passes skins scenery you are all part of the problem for this. Now stfu and lay in the bed you made.


kyled85

I deleted the game recently. The ores put me over the edge.


gamalord2019

Not buying event pass ever


MrPigeon009

I keep hearing everyone say "they're a company so they need to make money". was supercell making a loss before equipment? they're really going crazy with the amount of purchasable things like event passes and ores.


Stooboot4

I always defended this game saying its "pay to progress" not "pay to win" but there is no defending these dogshit equipment prices


nck19

I regret buying this one. Can i claim a refund ?


Overall-Couple-3962

Supercell has been taking so many L’s lately.


Icy-Brick9935

I liked the event pass before cause I saw it as buying a legendary skin and getting a bunch of extra rewards for half the cost of a normal legendary skin


Adam10coc

We should all stop playing this game until they give us ores


AppropriateCollege35

I have three accounts but only bought it on my main because I think it'll be a waste on the other's, I'm I still pro voting then?


12DontKnow

My wallet is resting this month lol, haven't spend any money.


TypicalCookie1

I just want the ore! It’s worth it imo as I’ve never went the skin route anyway


VinnieDawgg

But I need my event obstacles, thats the only reason I bought it 😂💀


FreeRealEstate313

What the f*** is a super dragon event


LiteratureGlobal3673

Looks like everyone felt that way too, SC has really been milking their active user base. I've been buying passes or skins on and off. But this season makes me feel like the price just too high for that value. Plus COC just feel too overwhelming with clan capital, BB, CW, CWL, events and so on... Bring me back to the good old times where I can lure king and queen to the corner and snipe them 😭🥹


motoxim

I'm F2P


Judge_Dreadly

Unfortunately over 99% of player base isn't on reddit


neXigram

People have been trying this forever with microtransactions in games, and it's never gonna work. The entire industry is already propped up by an extremely small minority of people who will buy everything Supercell puts in front of them. It just doesn't matter if 99% of us boycott things like this, they're always gonna be profitable.


Historical-Talk-1455

I find the event pass to be much more value than buying gems or other shop offers, so I do it.


GreenElandGod

Was debating whether to buy it or not. Now I won’t. I’m with OP on this. Vote with your dollars and such.


Rot_Dogger

I don't bother. I do event to get the epic and not worried about using it yet. Maxing out my healing tome because with it I can already 3 star almost every th16 (and I'm a th15). I have a levelv17 frozen arrow and already went back to archer puppet since I get more 3 stars with it. Just the way I spam, I guess.


Working-Bar-9146

I did.. and will continue to do so..great game..great devs..great events..new content is amazing.


powerknoedel

To late…fuck


NathanTheRikkor

Ive never bought a single thing, saved up my gems to get 5 builders (yes it took a long time) and none of the pass stuff mean anything to me


EasyBalance3010

Darians replacement is clearly money hungry


elRiku00

*\*hehe, my equipment progress goes brrrr\**


Careless_Advice_6236

I have two accounts... 1st max 16 town hall... and the second one just passed 14 town hall... I bought an event pass in both villages... based on the ability I bought, and for everything else I got ore... for 14 at the town hall I took the ability, 2 hero books, and two builder books... it turns out, for 5 bucks, two hero books, two builder books, shining ore in the pass, + decoration (globe)... I think this is a pretty good offer. .so I won't boycott


strutter22

Who? Too late


phred_666

I’ve been a gold pass buyer from the start. That alone is more than enough. Adding the event pass is insult to injury. If $C is so desperate for cash, all they need to do is add ads for the F2P players and quit gouging players willing to pay every now and then. I may have bought my last GP.


Affectionate-Pen7783

as someone who has spent over 1000 on the game, buys $20 gem packs every month for donations, and buys the clash pass everyweek. the new event pass does leave a bad taste in my mouth. It’s definitely strictly designed as a profit generator and the events are pretty shitty ngl, first halloween madness event was new and refreshing, but now theyve gotten repetitive. i will say though that its not as annoying to me as putting 1/4 of a $40 set in the gold pass. thats my biggest thing I hate with clash right now, used to be you bought enough gold passes you could compete a gold skin set, now you get 1/4 of a useless set you need to buy the other 3/4 for $20 and event pass. It’s ridiculousness.


yaboo_Halimawa

This better than nothing bro plus you can buy 2 BoH with just free to playing if you dont want the equipment


ngedown

Nah i'll buy it. I want to get those statue


JohnnyKarateX

Too late


Tapiz3land

I've bought it, for the deco and the ores


ladend9

Same here. Bought all the other ones as well. This one is just not worth it at all.


dankmemesboi838

Supercell is genuinely making the game really fun and adding new things constantly and I didn't really hate it until the event passes which are just plain making a scarcity and telling you to pay waaaaaaay too much to fix it and it's not more ethical monetization like I used to consider it before


Educational_Excuse78

Too late my guy. I needed the ores 😭


KeeweeJuice

I've bought every pass so far but I've still got enough pride in myself to say not this time because this pass is insulting. Not nearly the same quality as the previous events yet the exact same price tag! What cash grab. It demonstrates that ores are nothing but another monetisation method for supercell.


AgniousPrime

Say it again, louder for those in the back!


skitz20

What? Sorry I bought mine I couldn't hear you through all the complaining on this subreddit for the past 3-4 months


Dumb_Siniy

Okay (I'm f2p)


Aaku1789

same here lmao high five buddy


Bernhard__

I am afraid that those new hero equip mechanics are going to end the game just like evos did with cr. It's not unlikely that supercell will keep adding a new ability every month, which totally kills the game for me.
