Anyone noticed a difference?

Seemingly the whole point with the game changing so we couldn't use landscape mode was so that they could make it more exciting and improve things. Has anyone noticed anything that has improved the game because I cannot see one thing that has improved. I have tried to play in portrait mode but can't get used to it so goodbye candy crush and thanks for making the changes because it means I will also be changing games now as well.

Welcome! 👋

It’s so sad that many long time players are leaving and King just doesn’t care.

Farewell and good luck with your endeavours. Well done.

Uninstalled today. I'm done. Can't stand portrait mode. Hate the friends lives limitations (and that you can't voluntarily give them anymore, your friends have to ask), hate Candy Royale and the fact that i can't opt out. I've been playing for years and even spent a fair bit, but all these changes (for the worse) ate making me wonder why i play. I play to relax, not get frustrated by every turn of events. They won't change anything until more of us do this.

That is what the company is counting on, player not able to take advantage of “freebies”. Then they have a better chance of getting more money!

I didn’t mind spending some money from time to time but now to win any boosters or gold bars, money paid is the only way. Oh well, it WAS fun while it lasted! Good luck to all!

I have been telling myself for year now I have been playing this game way to long - currently sitting at level 14350 - and do to this portrait switch (again, happen once before) this is to much- it is time to just quit- I understand that all things must change in order to get better - but there is no improvement by making it landscape only - I rarely play on my phone - play on my iMac its a morning staple - I looking now to find what will be my new morning routine that will not include a game I can only see on my phone, because portrait on the computer is way to small - not worth the amount of time I have invested- and the enjoyment is gone - Good luck everyone!

LOL!!! Great post, Christine!

Yeah, I'm one of the insane ones! 🤪🥰

Yes, I have noticed changes. In fact week by week the game gets worse. As I have written elsewhere I think the only driver now to decisions which King developers make is the data they collect from our player IDs. They store data on what levels we play on, our purchasing history, how much gold we have and which events they give us. All these data are fed into a computer and out comes what events make a profit. Fun, relaxation, customer satisfaction, all gone out of the window now. They have probably laid off most of their staff and are using AI to run the game now. This sort of strategy favours players in the levels up to about 2000 as they are still being tested and teased into addiction with fun events and lucky boards. Have you noticed how so few players complain about levels lower down than 10,000 or ask for help on these? In contrast, anyone over 10,000 must now pay, find a cheat, or quit. Or is driven insane. My advice is avoid the last option. Get out!

Exactly! No boosters are being given. The levels are ridiculously hard and they want my money in order for me to progress. I get a message “80% of players needed a boost to pass”! What? So THEY know the levels are too difficult to pass without giving them money. Getting close to deleting the game altogether.

Just have to say, YOUR bad for spending real money, @Richard7462 ! Many of us said, don't spend real $.

Sorry that you want to leave. It's a frustrating free game.

Good luck to you.

Yes, we have all had this nonsense answer. I am yet to learn what is supposed to be an improvement about trying to play sideways or on a tiny screen.

No more crushing for me.

Richard7462

So you make a change to portrait on the PC knowing that we are playing on a PC, but sounds like you only want people playing on there phone, been playing this game for several years now, but I will be deleting it as it is unplayable in this format, you have really screwed up a good game. Guess in will find something else to spend my money on to play. Your not thinking about how your many PC users. I'm sure that the number of users is dropping!!

Yes! I agree. If the boosters are not the kind we can stash, why are we forced to play them right then? We might be on break at work, at the doctors office or numerous other places where we can't keep playing immediately, so we just lose out on that short time of unlimited lives or booster.

Hello

dimplesz

I prefer to play both modes as I have Multiple Sclerosis(MS) so my eyes get affected also seziours . As for the treats when you banged two square candy together it blew more bits up. . The worst is the pink jelly boxes ! You have to hit load’s and but not enough moves. Last update my winning streak hasn’t been on my profile picture 😢 just the level. I’ve messaged but never been resolved. Lastly … this was only a small post lol! When you win 15mind of treats the time starts before you press confirm! It be great to bank it! Just a thought xx

John_Sanders

Even now the levels are virtually impossible and when you watch adverts for boosters from the cinema thing you hit red crosses with the first 4 adverts. Quite clearly they want players to spend money to progress but do not listen to players who think the changes are completely garbage which they are. It is nothing but pure GREED and they can stick their game where the sun doesn't shine because I am not even going to log in now.

Molly Roberts

I've been playing for over 2 years and had made the bad decision to spend money to get myself through an Episode Race so I wouldn't lose Candy Royale. After that the Sweet Cinema disappeared from the game. Now I can't watch ads to get Boosters. Don't spend money on Candy Crush Saga, or any of their games (unless you have buckets of money to throw away).
