Hello fellow candy crushers,
I am tired of seeing the "counting up" threads that keep pushing real concerns and complaints into the abyss. I know this may be a long shot but I read this proverb, "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step". I wanted to start this thread so that we can all actively express how we feel with all the changes and new episodes, and keep this discussion on the first page.
I have been playing the games for years (current level 12406), i've noticed the last few months the game has been frustrating! It's obvious that CC wants to increase their P2P users. From episodes that are too difficult to complete without using all your boosters and gold bars, to now the limitation of daily lives. Don't get me started on that joke of a "Stars Tournament". I was inspired to make this post because of @messenabout discussion and how King responded on the new daily lives limit. Here is the original thread, to read how King responded to it https://community.king.com/en/candy-crush-saga/discussion/382546/king-response#latest
This new limitation is an obvious money grab. It's interesting that in their response they wrote "Please bear in mind changes are made constantly to the game itself and its rewards to help keep our players engaged and enjoying sweet new adventures." But isn't that statement contradicting??Let's call a spade a spade. They are limiting our lives so that we can pay money (or in gold bars) to get more lives once we pass out daily limit.
1 heart = 4 gold bars
5 hearts = 12 gold bars
6hrs unlimited = 69 gold bars
To buy gold bars it starts from $3.99 CAD which is 10 bars, and can go upwards to $139.99 CAD which will include 650 gold bars, 18hrs of unlimited lives, 13x of each regular boosters, 4 days and 4hrs of lucky candy, chocolate bomb, swedish fish, candy wrapper and coconut wheel.
What are your thoughts of the game as of late? Please comment below and share this discussion board. I promise I will respond to each post once I see that this discussion gets bumped off the first page.

I used to love playing this game before lives limit took over,didn't mind buying booster's and gold bars.will not be buying anything now,but I don't think king even cares all I hear it is for the health of players and the game just a load of bs

Fuming, some of the levels take more than 20 lives, but now that's my limit! Why?
Spent money when needed, I have lives I want to use them!!!
It's all about Control, I don't need controlling thank you very much.

This is pretty much taking the fun away with a hard level.( and little moves, 20 lives gone in a second)... playing for days. I think this is not a good choice to "try "to get us spend money on lives. I do spend sometimes money on a deal, yes, but i am not spending to get extra lives.And what is the use of having an amount of friends than. We rely on friends to send and give lives to each other and i do have a long list of recognizable friends troughout the years. I am from the Netherlands by the way so my English is kind of sad i think haha. Hope they re-consider this stupid thing of Maximum 20 lives pro day. I do play Candy crush with my "work from home" trough the day, to relax and have something to do on less busy hours. If it stays this way i wont be playing i guess....I just frustrates me atm.

Very unhappy with the 20 lives limit. Don't understand the purpose except to encourage buying lives, which I will not do.

I just did the new update I lost over 900 lives from fellow players. I also lost the candy pink wheels forget what they are actually called maybe had 50 or 60 of them, plus some things I purchased. I am not at all happy about this how do I get this stuff back. Thx

omg that sounds like a nightmare!! I wasnt even able to accumulate that much lives, I think they capped me at 100 a couple weeks ago. I should've been suspicious but I didnt think much of it!

That's all they want to do, at least be less obvious about it and turn it to a premium game. I found my discussion on the second page.. guess what the first page was filled with 😡. They are just shoving our complaints under the rug, the mods are too busy keeping up with the counting threads 🙄

Tired of levels that take days/weeks to get through. CCS is obviously moving to pay to play, so just may quit now. Never had lives to lose, but that situation sounds very fustrating. I don't even get updates any more, as they "no longer support my device."

...I have been playing CCS for many years.
The move to limit lives has killed my enthusiasm for the game.
Entering races and gaining free boosters has hooked me and my competitive nature..same for everyone I'm sure!
Now there is no longer any drive or enthusiasm, knowing that I can't finish a level because I'll run out of lives, loose the race and potential boosters.
YOU'VE SCREWED US.
This is the best way to kill Candy Crush Saga.
WELL DONE DEVELOPERS!
