Introduction

One year ago, I logged out of my Clash of Clans base, leaving it inactive. During this time, I wondered how far the base would be automatically upgraded. In this article, I will take you through the journey of setting up the base, the upgrades conducted, and what happened after one year of inactivity.

Setting Up the Base

Before leaving the base inactive, I needed to make some preparations. The base was at Town Hall 1, and the laboratory was only at level one. To maximize the benefits of the automatic upgrades, I decided to upgrade the laboratory so that all troops could potentially reach their maximum level during the period of inactivity.

Upgrading the Barracks and Dark Barracks

While the automatic upgrade feature would upgrade the barracks for me, it may not be the most efficient in terms of upgrading in the lab. To address this, I upgraded at least one barracks and the dark barracks to their maximum levels manually. This would ensure that the troops trained during the automatic upgrade process would be at their best.

Upgrading the Storages

To facilitate the upgrades that the automatic feature would perform, the storages needed to be upgraded. This would allow the base to house the required resources for any upgrades. Upgrading the storages required a significant amount of gems, but it was necessary for the process.

Unlocking Spells and Troops

To fully utilize the automatic upgrade feature, I aimed to unlock all spells and troops. While the automatic upgrade feature would unlock most spells and troops for me, I manually upgraded the spell factory to unlock any remaining spells that were not included in the automatic process.

Upgrading Defenses

Before leaving the base inactive, I ensured that all defenses were at their base level, except for the scatter shot. The scatter shot would require significant resources to upgrade, so it remained at level one. This would test whether the automatic upgrade feature would choose to upgrade the defenses or not.

The Automatic Upgrade Process

With all the preparations in place, I logged out of my account, leaving the base inactive for one year. During this time, the automatic upgrade feature would take over and upgrade various aspects of the base, including troops, defenses, and other structures.

Returning After One Year

One year later, with 2.3 million subscribers eagerly waiting, I logged back into the account. However, to my surprise, the base layout had changed, and it appeared that my base had been hacked. Confused and concerned, I delved further into the situation to understand what had happened.

Evaluating the Upgrades

Upon closer inspection, I realized that the base had not undergone the upgrades I had expected during the one-year inactivity period. Many troops, spells, and defenses were still at low levels, despite the resources and preparations I had made before leaving the base inactive. It was clear that the automatic upgrade feature had not fulfilled its promises.

Future Plans

Given the disappointing results of the automatic upgrade feature, I reflected on what should be done with the account. The base needed further upgrades to reach its full potential, and I sought input from the readers on what steps should be taken next. Should the base remain inactive for another year, or should a different approach be considered?

In conclusion, the journey of the Clash of Clans base experiment highlighted the limitations and inconsistencies of the automatic upgrade feature. It also served as a reminder that manual intervention and active gameplay are crucial in achieving desired outcomes in the game. As I embarked on new plans for the base, the lessons learned from this experience would shape my future strategies in Clash of Clans.
