I'm was a really fissured player, but I'm really frustrated about this update. I will never spend my money in this game.

@Pounawea

I appreciate being given the opportunity to make a suggestion about a new way to preview a level in a game. However, since the game already had a process that did the job AND you were not receiving a boatload of player complaints about that process, it seems a waste of time and resources to code for a new process. Just undo the ‘fix’. You’ll have happy players again.

Dear community,

First of all, thank you very much to all you for coming by and sharing your opinion with us and a warm welcome to the forum to all newcomers. 🙂

I wanted to let you know that your feedback has been shared with the Studio and we will be having more conversations around this change in the game during this and the upcoming weeks. Also, I've changed the title of this topic (thank you very much for the suggestion!) and pinned it as an announcement.

I would also like to confirm that, for now, there are no plans to undo this change in the game. However, due to your feedback, the Studio will be looking into this, we acknowledge the want to be able to preview the levels and will be looking into different ways on how we could incorporate that into the game.

With that being said, I cannot promise that something will definitely come into the game nor I can give you an estimated date, but I'll certainly keep the conversation going with the Studio so they know what's the community opinion.

Last but not least, an open question: Can you think of a different way for us to preview levels in the game?
If yes, please share it with us here and I'll be taking it to the Studio! Let's discuss together ideas and options that could be implemented to the game in the future!

Once again, I'd like to thank every one and each of you for sharing your feedback with the community. Please, keep it coming!

Have a delicious day 🙂

Board preview can only be done one way and that's been taken. Game boosters will fall wherever they choose, but if the player has more than what is on the board then they should be able to place another booster or two in any spot on the board they choose. If we cannot back out and reset, we will be losing boosters that are buried or stuck in remote places on the board that absolutely cannot be reached in any way. Yes, that happens all the time, especially on the more difficult upper levels. The change has effectively given the game the ability to steal boosters, and by extension, our gold bars. If they are used to buy boosters and the booster is then rendered useless inside the game, the player is SOL. That is not fair and that is why so many people are losing their minds. People that spend money are going to keep spending money, regardless of where the candy lands on the board. Being able to reset the board gives, as you stated, a slight Advantage. Key word here is slight. Even if you go back into the board and your candy bombs or stripe candies are exactly where you want it means nothing. You can still be stuck on that level for days and days. The game is frustrating enough, the last thing players needed was King adding to the frustration. This is the Legacy game, the game that started it all. King has the ability to gift that to their adoring public, as a way to actually de-stress after having played all of their other games that are so difficult you have no choice but to walk away.
Please, tell me, what happened to the option to watch videos for extra moves and boosters?? That inconsistency is mind-boggling, Beyond frustrating, and literally maddening when all you need is one more move to get that candy and you have no gold to buy those moves or spin the freaking wheel.
you said that there are no plans to back down from the decision to fix this supposed problem. I can guarantee you that there are no plans for any of your players to come back to this game until you do fix this problem. It is a rip-off, it has sucked all the fun and joy out of everyone's game, And playing the game is now pointless because you know there is no way you are going to beat these levels. You have effectively kicked everybody in the nuts and shoved them out the door to greener pastures. Free greener pastures.

I'm a longtime player who had reached level 3893 before you pulled this nasty little trick. I would mostly play for free and occasionally buy some boosters if I hadn't earned any in a while or was in a particularly tight spot. I'm not prepared to pay for boosters that end up in useless positions, so that's it, I'm out. While CC was an absolutely outstanding game when it came out and is still quite good, there are others out there now. Sorry guys, you killed the goose that lays the golden eggs. Too bad. Anyone have any suggestions for replacement games?

I need to go to the App Store and leave bad reviews there to bring this down. Apps with low ratings won’t make it.

Hello @LuckyMe1189 ,

All opinions are more than welcome in this forum and I encourage you all to share your feedback and feelings with the community, but please, we need to keep them personal. Feel free to share with the community what are you personally planning to do but do not promote general actions.

Thank you very much for your understanding.

Over the past few days I have been searching for a replacement to CC. I have found that lots of games still have the “in” and “back out” feature. This is clearly not a “fix”. It’s a common feature in these types of games. Good news for me, I have some good replacement prospects! Bad news for King, I haven’t played CC in 4 days. Hope you miss my money, because it’s going to another game developer now.

Can you give us an “opinion” of which games these might be?😉

tizo44 · December 2019

I am a the point of frustrated. I am stuck on level 5870. I too are going to move on to another game. Been playing Cc for many years and it is no longing relaxing. Sad to see this game has been made to be nightmarishly hard. Fun is gone.
