Do you believe in lucky boards or is it a game of skill?

    It seems when I spoke about the scoreboard not being present before, I wasn't experiencing what you were talking about (i.e., I only saw my own name in the board when I clicked on some random levels)

    Until now. The scoreboard was completely removed from both PC and mobile today for me; the rectangular box/row is no longer there. 😤

    I'm impressed you're still motivated to play; I see no point in playing...against myself?

    I refuse to play new levels while this change is around.

    And a game of abeties plus has the board of luck. I myself have passed levels if it weren't for the lucky board I'd still be on it.
    


  • I always have seen Candy Crush as a game to play against the people that make it, to beat the algorithms they set. I don't really like playing against other players. Sometimes I just feel sorry for them if I am running away in the weekly race. I just know I have easier boards and am playing in an easier level range than they are. Scores never interested me, but I understand that we all play a different style and for different reasons. I am sorry you have now lost your incentive to play @Deryck .

    A lot of the features like the scoreboard/ landscape mode/ the old chocolate box etc are taken away one group of "test" players at a time. I'm not sure why King do it that way. Because they aren't testing anything, you always know damn well they will eventually just roll it out for everyone.

    I still have that game with no legendary levels at all, and where I get a lucky board after trying a difficult level about five or six times at the very latest. I'd just like to know what kind of test group this one is that I am in. Does anyone know here? Do any of you guys have a game that does not feature legendary levels (burning skull and crossbones)? @cookiemae Do you have any of your games like mine without legendary levels? @Arrowflinger in your latest game do you have legendary levels? How far have you gotten to so far?

  • Hi Christine, I have those legendary levels in my new game. I'm currently around level 4200. So far they haven't been that difficult to pass. A full win streak and starting boosters certainly help go through the levels a lot quicker.

    That's an interesting take on playing the game, Christine--beating its creators--and can see why it'd keep you playing. I think since I never prioritized advancing on the map, it's why I was more taken with the competitive aspect of beating scores.

    But apart from the scoreboard's function of keeping scores, there's the practical matter of King disabling one of the only ways to send mass lives at once; already there's one new post in Discussions about it, and I imagine an influx is on the way. 👀🍿

    Yes christinewupp mine are like yours no legendary levels. Top of the levels until tomorrow on 2 accounts with none. 3rd family account up to level 2361 have none so far.

  • Thanks for you reply, that really is interesting. It's good to know I'm not the only one. I wonder why King are doing this..... Of course most others with enjoyable games we never here from here, they just happily play and don't bother with posting in this community.

  • Thanks for you reply. And well done for getting so far already. Keeping a win streak and using starting boosters definitely helps. Unfortunately King have become so mean with boosters lately I have spent some gold to buy them, which I guess they want. But so far I am trying to keep adding to the gold by winning every episode race. I'm only on level 1500 in my catch up game (the first one got merged and I lost it, so I started another in July).

Hey! Would you like to give us your opinion?
