Fantastic Five (F5): Nice Addition To My Power-Ups Challenge

mercerik

I just got this Fantastic Five (F5) added to my Power-Ups Challenge.
It is awesome to have more Booster Generating Challenge.
Why not? Bring them on!




This is a ScreenShot of what popped-out after beating Level 4221.
According to this a Team was found.


These are the things the Team Needed to Complete
to win the Sweet Rewards.
From what it seems, it is quite similar to
Candy Crush Soda Saga's  Mr. Toffee Fair without
the presence of Mr. Toffee which is understandable
because his hands are quite full with CCSS MTF assignment.

Fantastic Five (F5)
The Best Ever Challenge King Has Created
5-Star ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rating

I had the most fun playing Candy Crush Saga today, Thursday, June 6. I got this Fantastic Five Team
 Challenge yesterday but didn't fully enjoy this till today. With this in combination with Boosters from
Build-A-Bot Challenge, the Dynamic Duo, Candy Quest, Watch Ads, OMG, it felt like I was invincible.
I beat Level after another in One Try. I won the Episode Race twice already. I am heading towards my
third. I completed 45 levels in short period of time. It was unbelievable. Our Fantastic Five Team only
needs 1050 more points to get the Top Prize. I was already singing Tim McGraw's song
"I like it, I love it, I want some more of it". ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

Unfortunately, the fun came to an end for whatever reason I had no clue. My Build-A-Bot Boosters
while at its Maximum Efficiency were taken away without losing a life while I was playing.
Bummer, I had to stop because my other Boosters were all used up. How can this happen?
😭 😭  😭

The Team only needs 1050 more points to win the Prize.


My third 5 Gold Bars if I finish the Episode tonight.

The Fantastic Five (F5) Challenge Is Still Awesome

You can never go wrong with this being teamed up with 4 other randomly chosen people, unlike
the Dynamic Duo where you are stuck with one who never bother to contribute. It is worth the work.

how do I get this crap off my account? 
I do not want any part of this challenge.  I hate it.  I do not want my stuff shared with strangers and I don’t want to be in a group.

@TheWonderGinger

I understand that you don't like this Competition. I have been playing the Fantastic 5 (F5) since June 5. The only thing I shared with these 4 other players in the group are the Boosters once we raised 10,000 Points. I share more information when joining Communities than this. I don't know them, they don't know me. The only thing they know is my first name not unless they look me up which is not a big deal. I don't even pay attention to their names.

This is a Game Feature. You can't take this off of your account. You can't delete this from your Candy Crush Saga Game App. This is a nice way of being rewarded for playing hard. It used to be a fast-paced scoring at the beginning but now it is slowing down because of the difficulty of each level. It is surely a lot better than the Dynamic Duo. My Duo is non-existent. I have been working alone since the beginning. I changed my partner but I got one of the same so why bother?

When you play the Episode Race, you are also competing with strangers for the first place to win 5 Gold Bars. In this competition, the only difference is, you are not working as a Team like the Fantastic 5. You are trying outrun each other to win the Gold Bars.

You are competing with worldwide players in the Champions Race and Space Race. This is how it is when playingwith one of the most popular games worldwide. The only way you can keep your privacy is by playing Single Player Game but that wouldn't be fun. Wouldn't it? 

When you go to the Game Map Settings, there is nothing that can opt you out of this competition. Here is a ScreenShot of it. Just treat it like it doesn't exist if you really don't like it.

Hope this answer your questions or concerns!

Thanks!

Well I’ve uninstalled it and won’t be playing again.  I do not like playing with strangers.  I don’t want to play with strangers.  I. Don’t. Want. To. Be. Paired. With.  People.  I.  Don’t. Know.   

I don’t care about boosters.  If I want them I’ll buy them.  

I sont care care about team play.  I don’t want to play on a team. 

Instead of forcing this unnecessary crap on us, you people should give us the option to opt out since the players are the one who pay your salaries.

@TheWonderGinger

Just so you know, I don't work for King. I am a player like you, a member of this Community. Yours and other players money don't pay my salary. I understand your frustration. Not everybody share your fear of strangers. If you feel like this game is not for you, then find something that fits what you like and what you need, a Single Player Game. 

Whatever your decision is to quit or not to quit the game, is a decision you and you alone can make. It that's what makes you happy, then go for it! 

Thanks for visiting this Community!

It’s not a “fear of strangers.”

its a “I don’t want my crap tied to someone else” 

it’s a “I like my privacy.”

it’s a “I don’t want any part of my life shown to strangers.”

It’s a “We should have options on what to do with our games.”

this is is why I don’t use my real name on Facebook. 
This is why I don’t use Instagram. 

This is is why I keep my private life PRIVATE.

You might want to express this opinion in the Ideas Section and get some Votes from people who likes their Privacy protected like you do. Your Opinion will be better noticed and served in this category than posting on a Thread like mine. My suggestion is to keep your cool so you get served and recognized. Here is the link so you can go straight to that Category: https://community.king.com/en/candy-crush-saga/categories/ideas-ccs

Thanks for the response! I respect your opinion. Hopefully, you get that Option!

That was me “keeping my cool.”

hey @TheWonderGinger its not that those competitions are ripping you of your privacy besides you just use an avatar king gives you as your user pic , and you can chose  not to edit your user name in the game king will automatically give you "player"
your address is mentioned no where in the game!!! so there is no way king will infiltrate your private life , if you want to play solo then turn off your internet connection!!

If only turning off internet works.  It doesn’t.  I’m still attached to someone else AND I DO NOT WANT TO BE

We should at least be able to close it out.  I can only clear it temporarily by turning off my iPad.  I did not ask to join a team and I am not interested either.  I should have an option to say no!

Wow it sounds like someone needs to re-think wether or not this game is for you. I find team playing creates opportunities to be shared in confidence. The only thing I have ever learned from playing CC is what people choose to share here. It’s always a choice. I hope you find what you are looking for. Team playing provides opportunities to learn about other cultures and other countries 🙂 good luck

Hi there! Welcome to the Community!

When the Fantastic 5 was introduced in my Power-Ups Events or Category on June 5th, it was fun for a short period of time. It was like Fireworks in the 4th of July. Scoring was quick or swift because the players were enthusiastic in playing the New Competition. But just like everything else in this world, Fun is Temporary. I think when it was released on June 19, it was not as "Fantastico" as the description says on Top Prize. Every points were reduced. A good example is  -  originally just for logging-in was 100 points, now it is 25 points. Completing a Pink Level used to be 100 points, now it is 25. Completing a Hard Level used to be 250 Points, now it is 65 Points. Finishing an Episode is just a meager 100 Points. It was like a Sweet Taste of Honey turned Sour.  The Description should be changed to "es muy malo" (is very bad) because it has been close to 2 weeks and the people in my Team are no longer scoring fast enough. We are now in a Turtle Race. The Enthusiasm is GONE. I am the only one who is scoring high. Jogador(a) might NOT be a real person. Jogador(a) was last Sunday's Champions Race First Place Winner Completing 161 Levels. She has a different Avatar in the Champions Race. In the Gaming World, No two players are allowed to use the same USERNAME. This player is a Computer Dummy. If he or she is a Legitimate Player, a Real Person who completed this much Levels, it should have been reflected on the Fantastic Five. We would have won the Fantastic Five several times.
