One of the most well-known mobile strategy games of all time is Clash of Clans. As you advance, it's all about creating various clans and taking on members of other clans. With fifty people, you can create clans and engage in several Clan Wars. Due to the end of support for certain devices, players are worried that Clash of Clans will be discontinued in 2023. Relax; we're here to explain everything and provide you with all the information you require.
Is Clash of Clans Shutting Down in 2023?
No, Supercell does not currently have any plans to discontinue or shut down Clash of Clans. Supercell has successfully expanded the COC universe with four new spin-off games. Their most recent update may be one of the main factors contributing to the online spread of these rumours. There may be a gradual end to support for some devices with outdated versions. As stated on their blog, COC's support for smartphones running iOS 11 and Android 5.0 will end with this release. They added that it was caused by technical problems that were out of their control.
Additionally, Facebook login will no longer be supported in the upcoming version. Players must log into their Supercell accounts in order to connect with their Facebook friends. Even though some players might find this news discouraging, COC is still thriving thanks to new improvements, events, and downtime for maintenance. With so many rumours going around, the most recent details can be found by keeping an eye on their official Twitter account and blog posts.
Will COC Ever Shut Down?
Supercell has no plans to discontinue Clash of Clans, despite the fact that it has been around for close to ten years. It has made an astounding $ 6.4 billion since its initial release, according to reports from 2018. By 2020, Clash of Clans was one of the 50 highest-grossing apps and games on both the App Store and Play Store. On the other hand, COC won't close in 2023 or any time soon.
What led to Clash of Clans becoming unpopular?
Reason:
1) Upgrade time: It used to be that the upgrade time increased after Th7 and lasted for about 10 or 12 days. Supercell anticipated that people would buy gems to fast-forward through time, but the opposite happened and people started to leave. Later, upgrade times were shortened, but it was too late (atleast in our case)
2) Training time: Previously, training time was very long, taking 45 minutes for a single Pekka and 20 minutes for a single Dragon. Regeneration times for kings and queens were also very long. Additionally, despite what the most recent update says, the training time in all barracks won't change even if you upgrade. Thus, you must wait a long time for one attack. It was difficult to launch 4-5 attacks if you were a worker or student. Supercell later shrank training and regneration time but may be that was too late.
3) Upgrade costs were very high for troops, walls, kings, and queens. Another important consideration was the ratio of training time to the resources needed to advance anything. You could hardly launch more than four or five attacks, and the low resource gains and high cost were very demoralising.
4)War mismatch: At the time, the war matching algorithm was very subpar. In fact, the reason why my clan lost so many battles was that the enemy was a rushed base with a Th7 defence and Th9 army. Given that the majority of the players play for the sake of war, that was rather demoralising. Better war matching algorithm in the most recent update.
