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!

If King was recently purchased by another corporation it makes a lot more sense to me now. The company is trying to recoup its investment as quickly as possible literally and figuratively at the expense of the players.

I haven't gotten to that level yet and I'm glad for it!

@mercerik no harm intended. I have played this level over 100 times and used about 75 earned boosters or with won competitions and still have not won.

Different people take different lengths of time to pass levels. This one I did in about 10 goes, and I can't recall using any earned boosters on it. Once you work out that you use the boosters only when the cherries are in the right place it is actually fairly easy. That said I am fairly sure you will have gone straight through levels I have struggled on.

My question to you is would you pay if you can complete the levels using your skills and most of the time get them in one try?

Why would you worry about King's Company? He would not be in this business if he is not gaming business savvy. Don't you agree? I think this company is super smart beating Bejeweled. I used to play that game but when Candy Crush Saga came out, I switched over.

Personally, I don't care about beating a level in 1 try. But when I was on the same level after a week, even after using the old booster robot, yes, I would pay to get extra moves. One thing to remember, it's been established that some people have far, far fewer moves per level, than other people. One reason for your success, could be that you are one of the lucky people who have 15 or 20 more moves than others.

I don't think anyone doubts that King, at least in the past, has been very business savvy. But King has been bought out and is under new management, and it's fair to question if the new owner understands King's core audience (since some of their recent changes seem to be very upsetting to many in King's core audience.)

With Candy Cane Walls, single and double layer waffles, and triple layer chocolates, you will have to create powerful combos to beat the level.

On the contrary, people who can beat levels without using money would like Candy Crush Saga to stay in the Gaming World for as long as it should. As I said I played this since 2012, that's 7 years. Why wouldn't we care? Who says that you have to pay to win? King didn't say that. Yes, the company offers Boosters for a price and they are there for people who wants to move-up without a do over. Don't knock off people who can beat levels using skills just because you are paying money to complete yours. That is not fair.

You don't have to pay to win, but obviously King is going to care far more about the people paying their salaries then people who don't. This is true for every business, and everyone. Most of us are not independently wealthy, so we must work for a salary to survive, and King employees are no different.

Hey, this is a game let’s keep things light hearted and fun like they should bed

I've been playing Candy Crush for a while too. I just beat level 3600.

Crimson_Dawn

I actually beat 60 levels this week already.

Believe It or Not, there are people who play Candy Crush Saga who are now in the higher levels who have not spent money and I am one of them. I just completed Level 4000. Actually, I am not a short term player, I've been playing this game since 2012. I'll be here for the long haul.

as i have said before , most of people in here are at high levels and have found ways to avoid spending money, king/candy crush could care less about us.

I don't know if that is quite true. At least with me, I only start spending money on a game after I've played it several months--I have to be invested in a game and trust it, before I will spend money on it. Once I am invested in a game, then I want to reward the creators, so they can continue creating the game. For people saying this is a "free" game so they will never spend money on it, nothing in life is free, and if the creators don't make money, then they aren't going to continue making the "free" game. I think in general, long-term players are more likely to spend money on a game, then short-term players who don't have anything invested.

But at this point, Candy Crush is no longer much fun. I no longer trust the game the game and after 2 months since losing the robot booster, I no longer feel invested. Even if things change back (and let's be honest, at this point they aren't going to....especially looking at the history of the new corporation that owns Candy Crush), it would take several months again before I once again felt invested and trust the game.

I've taken the advice on this thread, and have downloaded some new games to try out. It will take awhile for me to get used to and feel invested in a new game, but I have no doubt that one of them will click with me, and eventually I will support the creators of that game. I found Candy Crush after another game I was invested in, and spending money on, changed dramatically (and eventually after I quit playing it, ceased to exist.)

I know Elsa said the number of daily players has remained the same, but I wonder how many of these daily players just log-on to collect the daily bonus and play a round or 2. I know that is pretty much all I'm doing with Candy Crush these days.

Crimson_Dawn

Yeah, I didn't like them asking how many purchases I made either, even though I don't. That's why I didn't fill it out.

TRICIA4955

Somegirl they're fishing to see how much money we spend on their games. Zip from me. Used to spend but not anymore. Going to do what Dawn Marie does from here on out and enjoy them not getting a dime. They'll come back around

Somegirl

@Crimson_Dawn maybe it’s only for select players. Fill it out and share it everywhere.

Crimson_Dawn

I haven't received anything like that. What's King up to now?
