No longer able to exit an unstarted board without losing lives - Information and feedback

Dear community,

I'd like to share with you some information in regards to a god old known issue of the game:

as you may be aware, when we access a level, we don't use any move and we exit the level without playing it, we don't lose any life.

This behaviour was not intended since the very beginning and very soon, this issue is going to be fixed.

That means that, once it's fixed, if we access a level to check it out, we don't do anything and we decide to exit the level to go back to the map, we will be losing a life.

Thank you very much for your understanding 🙂

Have a delicious day and let's keep crushing!

Welcome! 👋

I agree we should speak respectfully to one another. But people are feeling angry. We are feeling powerless. We are tense, on edge, upset, frustrated, etc. NONE of these comments would have been made if the Studio hadn't provoked the situation. When expectations are not met, there is usually disappointment. And it seems the majority of people here had the reasonable (imo) expectation that one of their favorite features of the game would not be capriciously yanked away, returned, yanked away again... King makes literally millions of dollars per week on this one game. And they have been doing so even with this long-running feature in place.

I would like to see King restore this feature, not only to those of us who recently lost it, but to those who lost it back around August 2018, as well. I would like to see this done without a boycott...without King suffering financial losses and without players suffering stress from a game that promises to relieve stress.

This thread has now been reopened so @Pounaweawill not have to reopen it when he gets to the office in the morning.

I've read and I've listened to what you all have to say and now I am closing down this thread until @Pounawea comes in tomorrow.

Why in the world would I post anything in your YouTube Channel? Do you even have a Community Tab on yours? For crying out loud, this is not about you or me! This is about helping this Cause of Restoring the Board Reset! Good Grief! Please don't use me to advertise your Channel!

I am not now or will I ever ask anyone to advertise my Channel. But when you wrote the message about going to YouTube and posting on the King channels I thought since a couple of my videos have the King name on it that someone here might go post a negative message on my channel. That's it and nothing more than that.

@mercerik, @Elsa, @sofia1992 Who cares? this is on King for messing with us first. They started this fight. But are too big of pansies to fix it back. You hear me King. #BoycottKingCC #stopplayingcandycrushchallenge

Enough of this!
I don't know what kind of role you have in that community but you are not the leader to tell the others what to do.
All the players have the permission to have different opinions about that change.
Also, stop talking to @Elsa like that.
You need to respect her decision, like it or not.

@Sofia1992

To be honest with you, I wasn't aware of your existence till you tagged me in one of my comments. I am not claiming to be the leader of this Community. Just like you and Elsa, I have the right to my opinions. I am trying to help this cause. Yes it is true that everybody is entitled to have a different opinions about this change. I was minding my own business till you inserted yourself again in my posting.

As I said yesterday, I am not trying to pick a fight with anyone here, not even with you. Please stop the annoyance! I should be saying enough of your non-sense, not the other way around. I don't want to deal with you. Please don't use me to further whatever agenda you have in your head! Stop tagging me please!!! 🛑

I was able to leave a comment. My comment was that I wanted the ability to enter and exit a level without losing a life or boosters to be reinstated.

Stop all the nonsense already.
Just stop...

@Sofia1992

Yesterday, you told me not to talk to you when you were the ones who've tagged me over and over. What is wrong with you? You keep on inserting yourself on topic that doesn't concern you. Please, mind your own business!

This is a very bad descision, previewing a level makes it a little bit easier and when you really get stuck i'm willing to pay too continue, but now it is too hard and not worth a euro.

Good luck with your "Fix"

This game has given me a break from my current reality. I admit to playing a lot more than most, probably, and I haven't been playing for years like so many. If I had, and if I had invested my money in a game, I would be even more appalled at the decision to yank a feature that was in place since the first day. It's been done before, blew up in their face, and was soon reverted.
There are gazillions of players spending ridiculous amounts of money every single day. To make the statement that they "prefer you buy gold and boosters" is a blatant punch in the face of what will no longer be called a loyal following. The community is at odds with the game and each other. The reactions to the opinions of players that share their feelings run from empathetic to downright rude and belittling.
Each of us has a right to speak freely without being responded to with hurtful words from complete strangers.
King has no less than SEVENTEEN games. They bring in revenue in the BILLIONS from players and sponsors. They need to feel the united front of players choice to BAN the purchases of gold for boosters. They need to hear from their ad sponsors with questions as to why so many players no longer get to watch these ads.
They need to see that what they see as a cash cow is maybe a little more than that to a whole lot of people and being treated like rubes is going to result in mass exodus from not only CCS but, hopefully, EVERY King game on every platform

I agree with everyone. This is the stupidest addition to the game. I've lost so many of my boosters because I clicked on next before unchecking my booster value.

@Pounawea from your question, Can you think of a different way for us to preview levels in the game?

Yes. Give us the option to maybe back out at least 1 time. Then at least we have the preview and the ability to uncheck boosters that we may not want to use and/or have chosen by accident.

I personally haven’t played since this “fix” was applied.. and guess what? I don’t miss CC. My disgust of such a greedy act surpasses my desire to play any longer.
