Turned a great game into a worthless piece of trash
Fri Jun 28 2019 Le PeeonWhen you added the Warships, I was overly excited as it brought something new and enjoyable to my day. The first two seasons were challenging and entertaining. Season 3 is here and two days in I regret ever downloading this game. For example, EVERY SINGLE TIME I am 1 win away from leveling up, I launch my troops, they destroy the bases before my opponent destroys mine, I go to the next screen and spectate my opponent attacking me. They finish, we go back to the results page and somehow my opponent has beaten me by several seconds, one time they apparently beat me by 45 seconds. My next complaint is that the troops always go to one area together. Since I cannot get flairs yet to direct my troops, I am pretty much screwed on which way they go. I have tried landing troops on opposite ends of the ramp, putting a good few seconds between troop deployments to separate attacking groups....... and they all go to the same place. The first two seasons and on the regular game this was not an issue at all. I understand a you need to make it a challenge to keep it interesting and it’s only a game, but if I wanted to experience something that doesn’t do what I intend for it to do and just makes up rules as it goes, I’d go talk to my boss who makes crap up all day long.
Fun game
Sun Jul 30 2017 Aub*22**This is a fun game although I find that it takes way to long to upgrade items, I do understand the the creators want us to spend money and purchase diamonds. Although after waiting days to collect enough funds to purchase an upgrade I find it I unfair to have to wait days again for the upgrade to process. If you play this game be prepared to wait days for thing to happen and be ready to loose your funds at any given time for your base will be raided and there is nothing you can do to prevent this from happening over and over again. I live in the USA and seem to loose my funds over night form Japan or China. Your map of available bases for you to attack is matched by computer and is always matched with bases that are to hard to take out thus it is to hard to acquire funds.
Diamonds are provided from safes on your map and you will only receive at most twenty at a days time thus it also takes weeks to acquire enough to use for upgrades. Thus this game is fun but take weeks to make any progression in this game. Have Fun!!! 😎update to this review the game over the last year has added and taken things away in an attempt to make it more interesting this has failed I play daily and still need half a week to upgrade one item unless you spend real money on diamonds. Still matched to base that can not be taken down. It is a time killing game about thirty minutes a day as you wait for the upgrades.
Someone attacks your base you get demoted
Mon Dec 30 2019 christmas tree times 2I’ve had this game for 5 years I really liked it but I know this was my problem but with my iPhone 7 I never updated my iOS and therefore my apps so I couldn’t play if I wanted to and I couldn’t see what my other name was for the game to save it. So when I transferred everything from my old phone to the 11 it didn’t transfer the data on my new phone. So my app wasn’t updated enough so I could use a supercell .I.D and transfer the data to the new phone I was very disappointed/ frustrated with that but whatever I don’t think I could’ve done anything with that. But I remember when I first started playing when you attack other bases you get promoted but what I don’t remember when I first had the game is getting demoted I get so annoyed now whenever someone attacks my base I get demoted and I’m remembering that wait they didn’t have that when I started playing. It’s really annoying they should not have that because it’s like oh yeah you work so hard for something and then you get it taken away from you like what. I mean overall the game is really good it’s just those 2 things that were annoying. I like that you can upgrade whatever you want and you don’t have to upgrade certain things first before you do something else. I have created a supercell .I.D for my new supercell games so hopefully when I upgrade my phone to the next one they will transfer. Thanks and great overall job, just fix those couple things
Things need changed.
Mon Feb 20 2023 MLGPRO!!!!!mlgFor almost 10 years now, I’ve been playing Boom Beach off and on. But nowadays it’s hard to enjoy the game to the fullest. The first issue with the game, which I’m sure almost everyone sees, is base editing. Sure, we can switch the layout, but unlike Clash of Clans (Boom Beach’s older brother) you can’t remove and place buildings to make it easier for you to edit. This is extremely unsatisfying, and it costs a lot more time. The second issue is task force operations. They seemed like a good idea at first, but low level players often struggle to even put a dent in power bases even if it’s the weakest operation, and the community isn’t always friendly with this and it results in low level players being occasionally kicked from task forces simply because they’re underleveled. A suggestion from me personally would be to make lower level operations weaker to fit skill and HQ levels. Also, a system that would recommend certain task force members for the operations so they know who to rely on. And finally, warships. The biggest topic of trouble for the game. It’s buggy, broken, and slightly unbalanced, according to other reviews I’ve read. As for me, I’ve experienced 2 of the 3. I don’t need to explain what I see problematic with warships- just ask every other player and they’ll tell you.
I’ve had a lot of good and bad memories with this game, but it’s just not on a good path anymore.
It’s good. But..
Sat Jul 18 2020 CoolTheyBoom Beach is a pleasant mixture of story, farming, and strategizing. Each base you encounter is unique in its own individual way, so you may have to use specific troops, items, or artillery. Just deploying your troops requires clever thinking because you will also need to be able to strategize how to make the gunboat energy be used effectively and efficiently. However, even though this game has many other contents as well, there isn’t really much to do after the post-game except for be challenged by events, or raid other bases. Also, the game is alright at first, but then the wait times for your upgrades become massively long. I’m willing to bet some people even uninstalled the game because of this, and I am not a fan of this waiting time, either. This is especially boring in the beginning of the game, when you have to wait an hour or 2 for most upgrades, and you don’t have a very high level radar, so there’s nothing to do but sit and wait for Blackguard Invasion on an Island you probably already conquered. Plus, sometimes you get player bases, which is good. But there is one problem with this: usually the players you get have a higher level than you do. So sometimes you can’t defeat them, even with upgraded troops, and the like. This is overall a very good game, but I would try to fix these issues if I was SUPERCELL.
Good game, and please fix this!
Dear Supercell
Sun Mar 01 2020 TankFighter52This is a very serious review on your game. I think it is a wonderful game that is really underrated. It’s very simple and can appeal to multiple audiences. All in all it’s just a good game that you can take the beaches in. However I have one suggestion, sometimes I wish the time would go quicker or we could all get one extra worker for free. I wish this because it would make the game feel less like a waiting game and more like an attacking the kid who just called you trash game. If that makes any sense. One other thing that is totally on my part, and I repeat, on my part, is how I deleted this app a few years ago and I was super far into this game. Last night I decided to open the app and see if it’s changed and play a bit. I was really sad when my stuff was gone and I was going through the tutorial again, is there a way to get my old account back? I don’t remember any details or anything. All I know is that I had over 1000 medals and my name was TankFighter or Shadow or something along that related. So just a recap, your game gives the player a feeling of tactical attack and defense which I love, The time might be a little lengthy, And I was stupid to delete this game.
Note about in-app purchases
Mon Apr 22 2019 THICC-PonchoThis game is very enjoyable I will give you props for that. The game does have its flaws. Recently for the past few weeks I have been having trouble with the in-app purchases. They make the make free to encourage people to buy the in-app purchases. When people go to purchases gems or diamond it says “Please wait. Transaction pending” then never gives us the option to pay for it. This problem hasn’t just happens to me. This has been happening to all of my friends. I’m not sure if this has happened on any other company device besides Apple. From my experience it is very common that this problem has happened to mostly Apple or IOS users. So I would just want to inform you on this. Quoting my friend here but he states “Why make the game free then can’t spend money on it. How do they make money then?” Some of my friends have even stopped playing the game because of this. So I strongly encourage you to fix this. I’m not sure if this is a complaint or a review. So me and my friends just want SuperCell to know that people are quitting and now playing the game because of a simple mistake (I’m hoping.) Everything else about the game is great. Love what you did with the Warships. Thank you for reading this if anyone is and have a blessed day!
They sucked the life out if this game..
Tue Jul 13 2021 AdamV92I have been playing this game for years. Pretty much from the games inception over 10 years ago. Now it just seems like you’re in a nonstop battle I’m trying to defend your territory. What I never liked about this game is if you’re unable to play which I was in the hospital and was not physically able to do anything for two months, The game goes on and you wind up losing rank because they have no way to pause the account where you don’t have to actually lose anything. They should’ve made this where if you can’t play it for a long time while you’re on vacation or whatever the case may be, you should be able to stop the games progress meaning your invisible, nobody can attack you, you can attack anybody. Then they came out with warships. I don’t like this having to play against other people where is one other poster said, you can clearly see you beating the other guy first yet they beat you by several seconds. The trader are used to come with good stuff to trade… now, she always wants diamonds or what you already don’t need. And I have not seen the rainmaker for God knows how long.. where is that? They just took the life out of this game and I don’t even play it nearly as much anymore.. fix this thing and stop worrying about making money on every single thing you put out!!!
Please Fix This
Wed Jul 31 2019 Kylan3377The main game is really fun actually and Warships can be but it suffers problems that need to be fixed asap. Around level 11/12 whenever I wait the grueling 2 or so hours to train my troops after 2 attacks I’ll load into another match and the only thing that Im beginning to notice is that people only barrage the Engine Room because they’ve upgraded their barrage since they first started playing. This is so annoying it drives me from playing the game. Not only do I have to get enough of the gear thingys to upgrade to the next section and get another engine room for my base but its so hard because it takes forever to win a match because all people do is barrage the engine room making it so I have to get atleast a 100% on their base which isn’t easy at all. Another thing to note is that you need not only 25 keys but also 500 gear thingys to upgrade to another engine room. In order to get the 500 required gears you have to upgrade other things which only grant about 20-25. Considering I cant win any matches to rank up and get more chests but its at the point where I need about my 2-3 chests to even upgrade anything but it’s pointless anyway because someone can simple barrage my engine room. I think ive just about explained it enough but the warships mode is quite flawed and I doubt it’ll be fixed. The Warships mode is cheesy/uneasy and not even worth it. -K
Supercell has become lazy with boom beach.
Tue Mar 30 2021 Ricsa13The game itself is as exciting as it has ever been which isn’t much. I play to max the village and get some attacks in. I had already maxed it and started over by choice. Where the developers have become lazy is on the map where you have the resource bases it seems you keep battling the same people after some weeks when requesting a new opponent. How ignorant is that. I have had the same person in my map more then 3 times and to add to ignorance that player gets thrown on to multiple resource bases at the same time. Seems they have you locked in to such a small grouping of people that are close to your level that this is happening. At the moment I have 2 resource bases I can’t win because it’s the same person that is at a higher level then me. It’s just really f$&@%£¥ annoying that to get multiple resources bases unbeatable because you give it to the same person. One time one player had 3 resource bases on my map. It doesn’t take a genius to tell you that lock you the bases to one player when you do that, ask yourselves, what sense does that make. Creating the best change for fair play is to not allow for monopoly to occur. It was not like this before this has happened in this past year so it only means it was changed to make something easier for the developers at the cost of the players ability for fair play and enjoyment. How about putting some work into that, thanks.
