Candy Crush is being sold so King.com does not care at all how we feel about the changes. We aren’t going to be their problem soon. They don’t care if they lose subs/players. Any money they make on the in game purchases and ad views is just icing on the their billion dollar cake sale. They are losing absolutely nothing. Honestly, don’t be surprised if 20 lives gets reduced even further. This is absolutely my opinion based on the admin/email replies. I can tell play time is down because my episode race has been going for a week with no winner. Normally within in 2 days someone’s won the gold bars. The weekly contest for boosters normally has first or second with 100 levels won by now (Saturday) but the last 3 weeks the winner has less than 30 levels won… this week 3 place has 3 levels won, 5th and 6th place have 0 levels won… This not fun anymore.
I will not spend a single cent while lives are limited simply because I don’t have enough lives to use the boosters. I will not watch another ad.
You aren't alone in disliking the life limit @Atbear01 and all everyone can hope for is that King listen to all of the complaints.
You can read some of the many complaints in the discussion linked below.
Now I am playing level 12569, and I have tried to play it 7 times, with 6 of them saying "OOPS" before I can even make a move!!! It is bad enough with the limited lives, but I also had 20 minutes of a free color bomb!! I am so angry, and I left them an email about it, but I am sure they won't do anything about it!!! I am furious!!!
This has happened to me several times too- always when starting with a free booster.
Do they EVER test levels with only one possible starting move to see what happens if you have a booster that you didn’t choose to use? I doubt it.
The only option I see when playing these is to use up your timed booster by replaying old levels. A complete waste of the booster and precious limited lives, of course, but marginally less infuriating.
I would think that they retest every level, but I am beginning to think that they don't care, as long as they get money!! I was finally able to pass it, but it took a lot of lives and a UFO booster!! I am so furious!! First, they don't check them, then they limit our lives!!! I hope they will pull their heads out of their ass!!!
