slight question about mods
- Thread starter Nao
- Start date
Because if people want to help the game, they can submit content to it and get it implemented officially.
No reason to mod a game that you can help build if you have the experience.

ah alright, i was new to coc and got into it by revamp so I had no idea it had some negativity when I started playing
The game isn't opensource, which means it would be ILLEGAL to make mods of it without the owners permission. CoC1 was opensource, so mods could be created, and some of the things that came out of those mods were quite terrible (CoC X). They dont want a repeat.
There's also the fact that certain members of the mod community are so unbelievably toxic (Will not repeat the things said) that I dont think the devs want them anywhere near they're children....

mods with questionable quality were made
honestly I think revamp was cool to continue on development and as a programmer I think looking at code for smaller games is cool but I understand why the code isnt released for coc2. I'd like for it to be released but it's their choice.
If anything I'm curious why JS for their language of choice.
I'd guess that it's because JS is supported by all browsers without having to install anything else, so they won't have to think about compatability. And, it's unlikely to get phased out anytime soon like Flash did, so they can keep developing for a long time too
Basically this. You can play it on android/iOS too without having to release separate builds and such.
Also this
I'm not sure about that reason. Most game development engines and frameworks deploy to multiple platforms pretty easily as listed here: https://www.reddit.com/r/gamedev/wiki/engine_faq#wiki_which_engine_should_i_use.3F
JS historically has had issues with different browsers but I speak from a general web development view, unsure if it will apply to here but I digress. I guess what's done is done so there's not much point arguing about it, just a very weird choice.

In-browser play was a requirement. Even if we had gone with some sort of game engine, it'd still be using JS.
