Build a Bot boosters available for previous levels

Please keep the build a bot etc boosters available to players waiting for new levels. As it is, we can't participate in a lot of the challenges & contests. Now that the build a bot boosters aren't available for replayed levels, there's no incentive to play until new levels are released. Please reinstate the boosters for everyone!

I created this account to make my displeasure over the build a robot upgrade know. I’ve played Candy Crush since it came out. I’ve played other games briefly but always end up getting bored or aggravated and quit except for Candy Crush. I’m afraid that day may have arrived. Please allow us to use lower levels to build the robots!

@bearwithme It won’t be a great Monday. Thanks for prepping me.

After 4460 levels I removed the game. I do not agree with your decision to block the possibility to earn bots on previous levels. It gave, while waiting for new levels, a satisfying feeling trying to receive three stars on hard levels. I think you made a wrong decision towards your most loyal players.

@chuck38 I can almost guarantee you will start fresh with your bot on Monday!😒

@Oakley_Arney At the moment, my Bot is full. However, this is the first week that I haven’t been able to use the Bot on previous levels. Now I’m concerned I will lose everything on Monday. I’ll report back on Monday.

In 2 days time we have had 2,000 more views (8k started and now over 10k) and another 20 votes but I don’t understand at what number they will start “reviewing” or “considering” this! They granted the “take away hints” with a mere 40 votes! How many votes they want to take THIS seriously??!

I don’t understand why build a bot no longer works on previously beat levels. As a result, I am spending significantly less time on Candy Crush. I am on level 4490 and have to wait till next Wednesday for new levels. If I lose the “bot” on one of the new levels I just may give up the game as it will be too difficult to rebuild.”

You don’t lose yours every Monday like the rest of us?

@chuck38 That is a very interesting observation. It’s almost like King wants to get people ‘hooked’ by allowing them to use the old Space Dash’ on the older levels but once you get to the higher and often much harder levels, you no longer have a reusable space dash/build a bot. It almost seems like it should be reversed, but then they might have players quitting on much earlier levels. In the past few weeks from the comments I have seen here and on other fb groups, it appears more and more people are stuck with the ‘new’ build a bot. I don’t know if it’s triggered once you reach a certain level or if King is gradually increasing how many people are affected. Bottom line - King please bring back the old build a bot that can be used on previous levels!

My wife, on the other hand, is only on level 2430 and she continues to use “Space Dash” on both new and previously beat levels. We both love candy crush and don’t understand the difference in our two accounts. By the way, we are both using IPads and have the latest version of candy crush.

Because we are the "trial" guinea pigs.

I totally agree and share all the views posted here. I am playing less and less because of this as well and starting to lose interest

@piglet301 Thanks for your comments. There are some benefits to the new “build a bot” design but I believe it is a negative for most players. Even with all the free boosters and daily spins the new levels are extremely difficult and some of the best players are having difficulty winning (particularly without a cb/cb start from the bot). If you don’t want to lose the bot on difficult levels you better have a robust inventory of hammers and hand switches. Most of us don’t have the time to accumulate such a large amount of boosters.

The new build a bot update is awful. I have had enough.

bearwithme

I sure hope King is paying attention to this thread. With as many votes as this has received- why isn’t this ‘idea’ even under review? CC is losing players and these aren’t the players who play for a few months and then quit - these are the players who have been loyal (and some who have paid money too) and continued to play the game for years! King - please listen to us and bring back the old Build a bot instead of taking it away from everybody!!!

After a month of this annoyance, I don't even bother collecting sugar drops anymore. I try to remember to check in and spin the wheel. Gee, thanks, Candy Crush, for killing my favorite game dead.
I would like to thank whoever it was who suggested Cookie Jam. It's not bad and it has the great advantage of letting me "Relax and Enjoy" or whatever it was that CC said it did.

Pete_Lashmar

I work evenings so used to play a lot during the day, not anymore because I'm on a higher extra hard level that is impossible without boosters. I want to play the game, not just search older levels to get 180 CC points & the bot allowed me to do that.

Mine just updated yesterday and you can add me to the nearly 10000 that dislike/hate this update. I will be playing much less

And stop being so deceptive about your build a bot. Everywhere it says you will keep it until you lose a level and the. It just disappears every Monday. No timer. No warning. Where is the fun in that? Also, even if you can only earn the bot booster on new levels, why can’t they still apply on replaying older levels. The fact that boosters you have earned won’t even show up on lower levels is really discouraging.
