5 sugar drop max?

Played level 1476 and 281 today only to find that after 5 sugar drops, no more came down during the game?!
Is this another "experiment" by King on a select group or a universal issue? I hope this is a bug and it will be fixed.
It was bad enough when King started rewarding sugar drop players with timed boosters which are useless for those of use collecting to get ready for Wednesday's release of new games.

Welcome! 👋

The problem isn't just the 5 sugar candies.But the fact that sometimes they put you in absurd positions that you collect at most 3!!!SHAME!!!!!!!

WOW! I came back to the game two weeks ago after about a 5 year hours and I’m ready to leave again. 5 sugar drops per game is ludicrous. The unlimited time items should be saved so we can use when we want. I don’t mind spending money on a game when it’s worth it but I’m ready to leave again. 🤦🏽‍♀️

This is the latest "test".

Not only have King put timers on boosters that you win, they have now restricted that you only get 5 sugar drops per game which will take 36 games to get your 180 Time to say goodbye

The problem still exists this morning.

It's boring to play like this. However ,I don't even have the "chocolate box" or the advertisement. Game from Italy

Now I am starting to get sick of all these changes, first the map got smaller and difficult to watch, and now the sugar drops isues with only 5!!!! after several years with playing, am am just about to give up!!!! just as I did with the soda version....

tinaruparel

I too am limited to 5 sugar drops . As a regular player I may consider finding an alternative. What a bore...

i have been playing for years and am at the top. i have to say getting boosters is much easier and frequent than probably coupe of years ago. i recall only spin wheel was option and sometimes i had to wait days to get a fish which was needed to clear a particular level. having said that we are now used to the boosters. the new development of 5 sugar drop per game is dampener. i strongly suggest please move the limit to 10 atleast also remove the 8 hour waiting window as that does not make sense any more

I’m on level 6140 and waiting for the new levels this week. Way too many changes being made and none of them good for long time players. May be time to say good bye to candy crush....

I too am waiting for new levels to come out tomorrow and I hope they fix this glitch of only 5 candies per level. Agree with earlier comment the timed boosters are useless ! Come on candy crush get this fixed. It total BS.

I'm going back to my card games. losing the piggy bank, changing the scrolls and now the sugar drops has done me in. soon I would have had no features to win boosters

Brady_Allison

it was bad enough when I stopped getting boosters for the drops in the old flash version that doubled them when you win, now I see no reason to play old levels while waiting for the new ones on Wed.

King, you folks just continue to find ways to screw your customers. I don't want to be your lab rat. I came here to play a fair game that everyone is treated the same way. Unfortunately you folks choose to discriminate against a few of us by using us to experiment on your game. I resent that completely.

Current level 6140, I just noticed it today 1/14/2020. I usually play levels 1476, 666 to get at least 60 to 70 drops. Now just 5 per...unacceptable. Hopefully this is just temporary.

BTW, is anyone else's chocolate box quit working? "The server could not be contacted..."

5???

I was so happy when the timed boosters ended... now this. Who came up with this??? It does come across as mean. Not a good idea imo. I guess we ALL agree, since we're here talking about it LOL. Playing 36 levels takes a long time. Though it's satisfying to have double digit hands and hammers again.

deeff

Have been playing this game for years and finished level 6230, waiting for new levels tomorrow. It is my guilty pleasure.

I have seen many many changes over the years. I do the sugar drops twice a day to gain boosters for new levels but I do spend money too.

If this 5 sugar drops per level is a permanent feature, I'm out this time. It is the final push I need to give up this addiction.

angiaveryt

I agree wholeheartedly! I too am on level 6140 and have to wait until the next week for new levels to come out.To pass time and, gain boosters and to continue playing, I play every 8 hours or so for sugar drops. However, if this doesn't change, I will finally leave this game forever.

I had started to get regular boosters ragther than timed boosters when collecting sugar drops last week. Now, this morning I find I am also limited to 5 per level. I ran out of the levels I usually play and since I can't reset anymore I lose a life trying to find levels that allow me to collect sugar drops. I thought of quitting each level when I reach the limit of 5, but then that makes you lose a life and limits how many levels you can play. This is making the game much more frustrating. Seems like every other week King is doing something to take away our ways of earning boosters. Hopefully this is temporary.

And wait for this. All levels below 500 even if marked as a sugar drop level no longer record even the meagre 5 drops you can collect. Why don’t King let us know about the changes rather than trying to sneak them in. This change really takes the biscuit as well as the candy!
