Why an hour wait for each game, used to be 30 minutes

Why an hour wait for each new game? Used to be 30 minutes for each game

Hello all,

Our Game Studios are constantly adapting our games by introducing and testing new features, gameplay or concepts. The lives refill change is part of a test our Game team is running. No need for troubleshooting

I understand that you don't appreciate this change, and I'll be passing your feedback onto the team

So after a few days of lives taking 1 hour to renew, it has changed back to 30 minutes! Yay!!

Like many here, I’ve been playing for years. After being annoyed for 3 days with this new one hour thing, i’ve simply deleted the game. And like many I have endured irritating changes but this one is the cherry on top. No way King will milk my hard earned money in buying lives! Good on them if it works but that won’t happen with me.

Hi @omkar000 and welcome to our Community!

I am moving this thread to an existing one regarding the 1 hour refill time for lives. Find the thread here.

bertbaxter

I cannot understand why you would test this out ...what benefits are there to making is wait one hour ...I would like to know when you will be sorting this issue or else I might as well delete the app and look for something else to enjoy as this game like this is pointless

omkar000

For me it’s getting one live for one hour. What’s happening?

David_H

As it's a 'test' they'll be seeing how many of us buy lives, to see whether they can monetise such a decision. Don't buy more lives - as most of you say, you're far more likely to simply delete the game. They'll learn that their constant need for greed will backfire and that they should encourage more, happier players as it's a more sustainable business model in the long-run.

One hour for 1 life is definitely going to cut down playing time. Candy Crush is getting expensive. Forcing loyal players to pay is probably going to force them to play another game. It is nice when outta nowhere I beat a hard level and I get 15 mins of free play, but it’s rare and not consistent.

Fred_Ellison

Four years with an unstable game; unfair experimentation with certain players; unfavorable rule changing with no instructions; now application crashing with the Dexter message; no way to win as hammers and switches are rare or unavailable and now an hour for an additional game. Is this to make us buy boosters? Its more likely going to make us quit King instead

ScienceGeek2022

Same with me I love this game, but it's not worth it, if I have to wait an hour between lives.

rachelr

I also have this issue on my android but not on my ipad. Very frustrating as I've been loyal for many years and spent money on this game many times in the past. Power ups get wasted because they'll activate after I've used all my lives. I'm very disappounted.

caymakkin3

How can I “chill and unwind” if I have to wait an HOUR for a new life??

caymakkin3

Completely agree!!!!!!!!

As title says really. It now says I have to wait 1 hour to get a new life which is really annoying as they changed the sugar boost rewards to timed rewards that you can't save

Why is my game now making me wait 60 minutes for a heart on Candy Crush Saga? Help

Brufy

Why is it now taking 60 minutes for a new life. I will easily quit this game if it does not change.

DoubleH44

Please change it back!!!!!!

Have King ever heard of functional testing? This is a technique where you test a crappy product on the production environment before releasing it into live. You DO NOT 'test' in a live environment. What this shoddy company is doing is using people as guinea pigs to try and generate more money.

Well said. Me too! I hate the way they try and manipulate players to obtain more money. If they were honest I would think about spending money but I will NEVER spend anything on a product made by King.

Check out the time for lives 🤣

This is really crap. Think I will just stick to Gummydrop which is much more generous. Just trying to get us to spend money but I don’t do that.
