This is getting worse. It happens very often. Only allowed 20 lives extra. I used 20 of many over 30 that I had. Closed out of the game to go away, came back and had to accept the stupid terms AGAIN and all my lives were gone except 4 new ones. I did NOT turn my computer off or reset anything. I no longer have fun with this game, and I will no longer pay for any specials. This is the only game I actually bought some of the specials, especially the weekend ones, but no more. You have ruined the game for so many of your faithful players who have been playing and 'paying' for years!
No one here can answer your question Spikey as we are all in the same position as you. To go from receiving and using as many lives as you like in a day to only being allowed to use 20 is nonsensical.
The official answer provided to cover the change does not make the situation any clearer either as you can see below.
We understand that this may be a big and sudden change in the game that might affect the way you play Candy Crush Saga.
This update on Lives was done to encourage you to use the lives feature the way it’s meant to be used, which is exchanging lives with others on a daily basis rather than accumulating them.
As you can see the official response contradicts itself. It says that they encourage us to share lives on a daily basis, but they then restrict how many lives can be shared in a day.
Also people accumulating lives did not stop them from exchanging lives on a daily basis.
Obviously the fact that people can still buy six hours of unlimited lives should tell you everything that you need to know about the real reason for the change to our Inbox.
Since when do you reach your max lives used? This has happened to me twice now. I have free boosts from a purchase but can’t play because I have reached my max lives for the day. That’s just wasting my purchase!! Since when is there a limit on using the free lives that friends send you??!!
My money is wasted when I have a free boost countdown from a purchase from the candy store but I can’t play because I’ve reached max lives. What this tells me is that I should NOT make any more purchases because the game wastes it. I don’t even understand the purpose of max lives I should be able to use ALL the lives that I have in my inbox.
