How long has this timed boosters fiasco been around? 2 weeks or so? When it started I was on 4416 but managed to work my way up to 4466 so I'm OK with it I guess. I know that many of you above 4800 are probably scoffing, but I never have bought boosters.... King got $3.98 out of me for gold bars in 3 years though.
Just played this morning and got timed sugar drops. Bummer Mr King. I guess this might be God telling me to quit wasting time I have enjoyed going back and trying to get 3 stars on all levels but with this change I will spend time elsewhere. Thanks more making it non enjoyable.
I want to welcome the newcomers to this community @jkmckinnon and @sheriffgirl . It is apparent that they have picked a new group of 'testers' for the timed sugar drops and those of us who were in the previous group now have our regular sugar drops back. I just checked to see when I started this thread and it was 11 Jun - so we had about 1 month with the timed sugar drops. I advise anyone in the new 'timed' sugar drop group to vote here: https://community.king.com/en/candy-crush-saga/discussion/258955/get-rid-of-timed-sugar-drops#latest and keep posting in these threads. We need to keep providing feedback to the game developers. That is why they test various changes to the game (for example the Fantastic Five). They want to see how the players react and whether they like it or not, so they can determine if it should be a permanent feature or not. Hopefully those in the new test group will only have the timed sugar drops for a month (maybe shorter if you are lucky). In the meantime I encourage everyone to enjoy the community and hopefully all of you are participating in the level 5000 Celebrations: https://community.king.com/en/candy-crush-saga/discussion/260433/join-the-level-5000-celebration-and-win-exclusive-swag/p1
Wow - I am so sorry to hear that @beccasdad. I'll start a new thread so people can talk about the timed bonuses on the daily treat calendar. Hopefully you will get the regular sugar drops back soon.
Please restore the non-timed boosters. Timed boosters get used whether it's an easy or hard level - this removes any choice or skill in deploying them. And there's no satisfaction in winning a level that starts with a screen full of boosters.
I just recently had the change over to the timed sugar drops and hate them. I never get to use them because you determine which ones we get. Please give us back the boosters so we can determine when and if we use them.
