Please make hints optional in Candy Crush. Please.

Many people want this feature, here and in many posts that are not part of this site. (Try searching on the web for "candy crush hints off" or something similar.) It's hard to understand why this would not be a feature - so many people say they would like to delay or turn off the flashing suggested next move. Sure, some people want them - so make them there by default!! And then in settings allow us to turn them off. Or even to increase the delay before they start. I just don't get it - why NOT make it optional?

We're not even saying you should take the feature off completely. We're saying PLEASE MAKE IT AN OPTION for those who don't want it, like myself. It's really driving me crazy especially since there's not even a delay before the hint, to allow me the chance to even think for myself. Haba!, OR at least BRING THE DELAY BACK aaahn. I'm annoyed enough to go through the process of registering here just to make this complaint. Perhaps that is your goal coz I don't understand why this is such a big deal. And I see it's been a problem for years now for heaven's sake!

Wow Frieda, thanks for the list! Some might already be on there but I will create another list.

Hi Elsa, OK! I have found even more since the last time I responded-- see below. There are even more, but I have run out of time for today. I hope this is helpful and that you can advocate for this feature that would only help, and not hurt any players!

You can add them all here. Some of them I might have responded to and added them to the list but go for it!

Frieda_Reichsman

Hi Elsa, thanks, that is awesome - is this a public list? When I Google "turn off hints in candy crush" the TOP 7 hits (all asking for a way to turn off this feature) are on care.king.com, this support website. Let me know if you would like me to add them here.Of course if you Google further and try similar word combinations, there are other hits as well.

Creative_Elsa

Hi Frieda, I have taken your suggestion seriously and I just created a list of messages posted here where players would like an off thing for the hints. I am adding your message to the list.

Creative_Elsa

Hi Frieda, you aren't the first player that requested the hints be a turn on/off but I think in order to get the studio to make a change like that they need a lot of players saying this and so far I think you are only the third person that requested it. I am keeping my eye out on this site to see if a lot more people say the same thing.

Frieda_Reichsman

Hi Elsa, thanks for this info. It's good to know that different speeds are being tested-- I hope that a longer delay will be used soon.

Please note that my request is for a setting in the game that enables players to turn hints off (and of course back on if they wish). This solution would still support players who rely on hints.

Creative_Elsa

Hi Frieda, the reason why the hints are popping up faster is because of the speed. The studio has been made aware that the players are not happy with this speed so they are trying different speeds at the moment. The hints most probably won't be turned off because a lot of players rely on them for the next move.
