Why an hour wait for each game, used to be 30 minutes

Why an hour wait for each new game? Used to be 30 minutes for each game

Hello all,

Our Game Studios are constantly adapting our games by introducing and testing new features, gameplay or concepts. The lives refill change is part of a test our Game team is running. No need for troubleshooting

I understand that you don't appreciate this change, and I'll be passing your feedback onto the team

I was told by the community moderator yesterday that it should still be working. So you can't get any lives? Well maybe the game is telling you to take a rest.

I've done this a number of times and it's not working but thank you for your help ❤️

Hey guys, for those of you who are showing that insane number of hours to wait until you get lives again if you are playing the game on mobile device try this.

Take the total number of hours showing and divide that by 24 and this will give you the number of days. Close out your game. Now go into your settings and move your date ahead that many days. Go back into your game and it should have it back to normal. Then go back into your settings and bring the date back to the current date. This always worked in the past and was told that it still works on mobile.

Rashawnda

Same problem as everyone else all of a sudden having to wait for hour don’t agree with this

mordaj1

This is really crap. Think I will just stick to Gummydrop which is much more generous. Just trying to get us to spend money but I don’t do that.

Like many here, I’ve been playing for years. After being annoyed for 3 days with this new one hour thing, i’ve simply deleted the game. And like many I have endured irritating changes but this one is the cherry on top. No way King will milk my hard earned money in buying lives! Good on them if it works but that won’t happen with me.

Well said. Me too! I hate the way they try and manipulate players to obtain more money. If they were honest I would think about spending money but I will NEVER spend anything on a product made by King.

Not acceptable response you don’t test with everyone without telling them

Have King ever heard of functional testing? This is a technique where you test a crappy product on the production environment before releasing it into live. You DO NOT 'test' in a live environment. What this shoddy company is doing is using people as guinea pigs to try and generate more money.

mazzakeem

I'm not getting any it's just counting hours I'm on 1800 hours but no lives keep contacting them but no one's helping somebody's messed up

Lcmjs12

having the same problem now if you get timed boosters you never get to use them

Sunve

Yay! 30 mins back 🥳 this test made us very upset. Test group deserved unlimited lives for this weekend 😎

Just playing on my Facebook laptop version of the game and I've suddenly got an hour until the next life, or at least, after some time playing, it says there are nearly 50 minutes until the next life comes up. Is this a glitch, or is this the latest way of stopping people playing the game?

Miriam_

I now also have to wait an hour for a new life!!! I'm getting so fed up with these fun-killing chances!!!

impossible146

I’m getting this issue too. When I woke up this morning and used a few lives I had 40 minutes on my timer. Now I have to wait a whole hour instead of 30 minutes for just one life. Come on, King! It’s been 30 minutes for years!

stacyboo

Why are my lives refreshing every hour not 30 min?

Hans4ea

I cannot give and receive lives from friends

Bigglesworth

I have the same problem as stacyboo - my lives are only refreshing every hour, instead of 30 minutes.

Hi, @sherylhaeck
We would like to welcome you to the king community. Thank you so much for being willing to joining.

You will still get 1 live in 30 minutes. Everything is unchanged there, If you have different then Please provide as much information as we can for this issue as well as a screenshot or video and I will happy to help look into it. For instructions on how to take a screenshot please visit here https://www.take-a-screenshot.org/

impossible146

Here’s a screenshot. Notice how the life counter is at about 35 minutes.

@impossible146 @sherylhaeck

During playing game, changing the device time may cause this problem.
However, I got some more reports. It looks like something has changed. I'm reporting the problem to the studio, I'll let you know.
Thank you.

Megabitez

I have the very same problem

Erin_Hess

Same problem on multiple devices. This WILL make me quit the game.

Sunve

I’m not using multiple devices and still have the same issue

emre93

Same Problem

aisha124

New life is given after an hour instead of 30 mins

Sukanta_Biswas

Hello everyone

Most likely, it is now being offered through the Test Group. We have no information at this time.
Hopefully tomorrow I can give you the correct information.
Also let us know if you see any new problems. Thanks .
