Hi,
why in some occasions my striped candies (or wrapped candies and other boosters) are exploding without any reason? Is that a wanted difficulty or a bug?
Best Regards,
Mike

Thank you for understanding and hope to talk to you soon!
Closing this thread..
4 in a row striped candy generators keep dropping candies that fire as soon as dropped, but only sideways. Can't play the next turn because the level is stuck dropping and firing candies.

Hi @Salada1 welcome to the community! Is it certain level(s) that you see it happening? Mine has stopped but maybe it depends what levels we are at. I'm in the 11000s. Where are you?
Do you realize this question is from 2018 and this unexplained boosters exploding before you can use them us still happening today 2023...lol
B-2 this will never change...As long as they can get people to keep buying boosters why should they change it? I’ve complained about it myself for almost a year and after spending money for the kids and then have them come to me and say they are already out of boosters, I decided to watch them play...Couldn’t believe what I was seeing!! EVERY LEVEL had boosters explode for no reason..As I posted before..the higher ups don’t even post on this thread anymore because they know it’s happening..They keep adding new features and changing the game but never address THAT issue...A lot of people play the game to take a break from day to day worldwide issues and they shouldn’t have to deal with this! Stay safe!
Dec 2020 still exploding for no reason!!! I'm on levels 7200+, It's been happening for me for almost a year that I specifically noticed this issue.
It does NOT matter what level, King developers, so stop asking for that. Seems if I match 3 candies near a colorbomb, or a stripe goes off in the row above it, or next to it, the colorbomb explodes as if it was hit... and it was definitely NOT hit.
I do not have a recorded example of game play, but I hope someone does and will post it...in slow motion!!!
2020 still exploding for no reason!!!
Thx Pamster! I figured as much but just thought I'd give it a shot. I won't be buying any boosters!!
Don’t even waste your time kcrna97....This issue will never be fixed..They update it with new features but never address the exploding boosters..The higher ups don’t even comment on here anymore..They want you to spend your money and buy more boosters....DON’T DO IT! This issues goes back maybe 2 years now!!
Could you please fix the bug making the candies spontaneously exploding.
There’s no use in complaining anymore..I’m only responding to this because I got an email linked to this thread...I stopped playing totally and deleted it off of all my kids phones as well..We actually paid for boosters not realizing that the game isn’t supposed to be played that way...And looking at this thread you can see the issue goes back a long time which pretty much tells you no one at King cares...You will lose booster after booster trying to get through a certain level and King does this on purpose so you will buy more! To prove that I’m telling you the truth..I’ve seen all kinds of added features recently and things that they’ve done to change the game but they leave this huge particular issue alone so that tells you that the developers know about it but laugh while you’re spending your money!
Well, I stopped playing when I got a new phone and my progress came over with the backup of my iPhone data, but my 100's of earned boosters all vanished. I never opened it again. It's a crap game anyway and I was stuck on the same level for months.
I think we all assumed it was a "problem." However, King's continued and extended silence on the "problem" indicates to me that the exploding candies problem is designed to happen purposefully.
They know they explode. They designed it that way. They don't want to admit that because then they would have to answer to people who actually spend MONEY to buy candies. I never do but I know some people do.
It's actually STEALING from those people any way you look at it, so are they going to admit they're doing it on purpose? Nope.
It's also an incentive to make you watch more ads (making them more money) to earn more special candies or to force you to purchase more.
Either way, it's all about them just finding another way to monetize while screwing players who mostly have no idea why their candies just explode for no reason. Not have they bothered to answer the complaint for years now.
It's kind of like the change after my last update whereby I can no longer back out of a board once I start it even though I haven't played yet.
They described it as a "bug" which they fixed. I found that interesting since it has been that way since the very founding of the game. Yeah, nope. I don't buy it. In my case it doesn't make them more money anyway because when I run out of lives sooner as a result, which I do now, I simply close the game.
So in my case it's a miscalculation on their part.
It's yet another way to force you to go through your lives more quickly and thereby possibly resulting in more purchases if a person is too impatient to wait after they've used up their 5 lives to play. Do people do that? I guess so. I never do.
None of it is about customer service or assuring players have fun. King obviously isn't concerned about frustrating it's players because it is such a hugely successful game that they no longer need to care while they rake in the dough.
It's now July 2020.
I'd stopped playing a year ago and resumed recently, a couple of weeks ago. Same issue keeps happening.
It doesn't even have to happen during a 'cascade'. I've deliberately made sure the board candies were completely still before making a move. Then, I'd move a single candy to make a striped/wrapped candy or candy bomb to move right next to another one. The special candy moves the one spot down, touching nothing. Then, Bam! Big explosion of the candy that never even moved, which then triggers others. This has happened countless times.
I'd also like to think that since this has been so common for years already -- at any time and levels among scores of players -- that after all this time the developers shouldn't have any problems recreating the problem by simply playing the game themselves.
I'll likely be stopping playing the game again soon anyway.
There is no point in complaining about this anymore..Most levels are just luck to get through now because of this issue..This game was the best game ever but is now pretty much unplayable and with things that are going on in the world right now, I don't need to be frustrated when I'm trying to take my mind out from of things!!.Every level now has boosters that explode for no reason at all whether you set it up yourself or even when they drop on their own!! At one point I had at least 10-15 of each booster because I was getting really good at it, now I have none..Then King has the audacity to want to CHARGE you for buying boosters and gold bars..Get real! If you'd fix the game maybe people would buy a booster here and there but as bad as the game is now, you'd be broke buying them. No one cares because this has been an issue for a looooong time!
