Clash of Clans Town Hall 11 Update

Well the new update is out and there are plenty of resources online for what all came with the update.

Right now for me, it is very hard to earn loot.  Mainly if you are not attacking all the time.  I lose more in a day than I gain so upgrading to Town Hall 11 is going to be a lot farther out than I thought it would be.  

Yes, I see big loot on on searches but if I can't take out half the base and get the Town Hall then I'm just losing out.  Which seems to happen.  I don't want to have to make a big army every time just to attack any base I run across with high loot.

I'm definitely not gaining anything on exilir.  Which stinks because I need to gain in order to upgrade my walls.  I haven't went up in the slightest on exilir in the game since the update came out.  If I spend what exilir I have on walls then I won't have any to make troops.  I am earning a little in gold but just barely.  Normally I would have been able to upgrade my next building by now.

I wish they would have let Town Hall 10 get the Grand Warden.  It would really have helped us Town Hall10's be able to fight better.

So currently on my base I have to upgrade all my Air Defenses, Cannons, and Archer Towers.  That's 7.5 million a piece.  It just gets ridiculous at this level.  Once those are done I can finally go to TH11.

I also don't understand why they won't let us upgrade the gold and exilir storages at Town Hall 10.  It would help us get ready for Town Hall 11 as the Eagle Artiliary requires you to max them out to hold the new 10 million in gold.

Here's a picture of my current base design.

Star Wars Battlefront

I've been wrapped up playing Star Wars Battlefront since it came out.  Been skipping TV shows and everything else to play it whenever I can.  So I haven't even thought of posting on here.

I was hoping to have a bunch of friends playing it so I bought it for that aspect too.  I saw a bunch of friends playing it that first week and I've got to play with a few different people.  Even hooked up with some that weren't on my list that I haven't seen for awhile.  The following week though, most fell off and were playing other games.  I guess Fallout 4 just has more appeal along with some other new games that just released.

Ive been doing pretty good on the achievements and was getting at least one a day up until I got sick from a stomach virus.  I didn't play at all and over the next 2 weeks it was short spans of when I played because I just wasn't up to it.

People are playing still but not as often as I thought they would be.  Black Ops 3 still dominates my list of games being played followed up by Destiny.

I've played the single player a good bit.  I've got all the stars for the training missions along withe the achievements associated with them.  I've found all the diamonds on every board in Battle and Survivilists.  Also beat them all on easy.  Got a couple done on hard. It finishing hard without using a heart, even with a coop partner, is really hard to do.  I haven't even tried Master yet.

The game looks fantastic.  Being able to play on both sides, fly, speeder bikes, drive AT-ST's and AT-AT's.  They game is really fun to play.  However some people are really good or doing something as they just dominate the game.  I can't figure out how someone can be that good.

While unlocking cards I didn't realize I could upgrade my cards.  Having them cool down faster really helps. It getting to 7000 to upgrade them takes awhile.  Especially when you still haven't unlocked all the cards.  I just realized the other day there is 4th slot for a trait slot.  It upgrades itself during the match for how good you do.  Those cards can be really handy.

So it's getting close to playing time again.  Later!

Dying Light

Well after finally going back to this game it didn't take me that long to finish.  Even finding all the collectibles didn't take very long using guides online.

What took forever was finding three other players to play online with through five quests.  I tried to randomly find games online but that is where Dying Light had its biggest flaw.  It randomly puts you in a game.  You can't see the games and you have no control over who's game you join.  Also depending on where you are on the map will determine the amount of people on the area you can connect to. 

To say the least, the majority of the games I jumped in only had 1 player. Around 50% would just be standing there doing nothing.  So getting an achievement where you can't find enough people randomly online to play with just isn't going to work.

I asked all my friends but most had either finished the game or gotten rid of it.  Only had one that still had it.

So I setup some True Achievement events that nobody ever joined.  I was making them 1 day after the next.  So I finally made one 3 days out.  A friend who had it but had never played jumped in and a random person joined.  Luckily my 1 friend who did still have it said he would break away from Fallout 4 to help me and he made my 4th person I needed.

We had issues connecting all 4 of us initially but we finally all got in together.  I finished my last achievement to get all 1000 points in the game.

I did get 1 DLC achievement in one of the updates but I'm not going after the other 2 in it.  Plus I'm not buying the other DLC released for it either.

So I'm officially done with this game.

The game was good.  If you like Dead Island, you'll enjoy this game.  It's basically the same thing.  Once you're done though, replaying it can only go so far.

Firefox is on iOS

Well how about that.

Godzilla vs King Kong

I'm a little excited to see this.  I hate it's so far away.  What I can't see is how they think King Kong would ever win against Godzilla.  It's just not possible.

Godzilla and King Kong will share one cinematic universe http://www.engadget.com/2015/10/14/godzilla-and-king-kong-will-share-one-cinematic-universe/
