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

Lynette said:

I commend you all on giving your opinions and feedback on this, but Candy Crush Saga is played by 9.2 million people (for 3 hours daily) so you're only very small number of the total players.

Wishing you all the best

Could you be any more condescending in the last paragraph?

where only a small number here buts that’s only because we’ve bothered to voice our opinions.

I’m sure other have just stopped paying them and not said anything.

I am waiting for an official reply that I was promised by King.

Thanks for your input

Lady_Choo

Actually we've sat back and let you have your opinions. Many of them vile and offensive not just to king but to other players. Not because we are afraid to lose out status. (You do know we can opt out right especially when the programme restarts) but because you are single mindedly on track and anyone who doesn't sing from the same hymn sheet gets picked on. Not just us but players too. Paying players support games. When gambling winning streaks lose...well there are plenty of people in prisons or without homes that show that. I certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to gamble but gamblers always defend themselves. It seems anything goes in this thread so we are allowed as anyone else is allowed to have our opinions. I don't like catty people. I don't like bullies. I don't like people that put down others because they don't agree. There has been a lot of inaccuracies in this thread by supposed experts, claims of being singled out. Both in game and on here. All incorrect thats why we haven't bothered commenting. At no time did I say I was all for the change but got told to go away when trying to keep the forum friendly and on track.
Lynette knows what she is talking about. She has the most unfair glitchy game if all the games to contend with. She is allowed get opinion and it was a fair opinion it just wasn't what you wanted to hear.
Personally I would take her suggestion. Change and adapt like the rest of us do or move on. Like the rest of us do.
I won't be reading replies or commenting again so please feel free to ignore me.

@Lynette

Of course, you don't have a choice but to accept the decision. I guess you are afraid of being stripped of your Superstar Status which is a Volunteer status and not a paid one.

You said "I commend you all on giving your opinions and feedback on this". Wow!!! Really??? 🤔🤔 🤔 How are you going to do that? Why talk as if you are an official in this company? Are you in their payroll now?

FYI - This is not disrespect! This is a fact!

So what you’re saying is that various features like the build-a-bot, beanstalk, daily spin wheel, daily booster, fauxtastic five, chocolate box, treasure chests, episode races, championship races, dexter, space race, and whatever other features I’m missing have no effect on gameplay at all, only the “fix”? So - players that have all of those features would be on equal footing with players that have none?

If you really think that way then you’re even more foolish than the people that spend actual money on this completely free-to-play game.

Sorry? Where did I say anything about 'equal footing'?

And 'people that spend actual money on this completely free-to-play game' are paying the company who makes it.
It is their choice on what entertainment they want to spend their money.

No need to call them or me 'foolish' because of an opinion you have

This was never a glitch - all players could do this as far as I know on any device. If it was, it would have been “fixed” years before now. The other games you mentioned have no bearing here as they were created after this one; their features are completely independent.

Why is it ok for you to have uninformed opinions and I can't also have uninformed opinions?

I am so sorry to have commented in your thread

bye

edited to add, many of the games have had glitches that took years to fix
I assume King probably prioritise which are essential to do first and those that can be fixed later

This glitch that made you able to exit without losing a life was only ever available to some lucky players.
None of King's other games worked like this, nor did most Candy Crush players have this advantage.

@Lynette

According to you the best for King is to make the game streamlined and the same on all devices. Really??? Wow, where have you been all these years? When do you think will that happen? Maybe when hell freezes over.

A Glitch is a 6-letter word used as an excuse to get out of a situation. Let's be honest, a 7-year Glitch is not a glitch. It is more like a 7-year Itch where the happiness declines in marriage. 🤣😂 🤣

Unfortunately, you just confirmed what @SuzyFuller just said. 🤣

Of course, King Games can do anything within the Game. They just
took away my Boosters for no reason. It is a Saturday. Previously, they
take away the Build-A-Bot Challenge on a Mondays.
What is the excuse this time?
I just won my 81st Level of the week. My Booster Bot was at its
Maximum Efficiency when all my Boosters were taken away,
leaving me with no Boosters to use. I have to start over and
rebuild my Bot. What's with that? This is ridiculously mean!
My Boosters were taken away at 10:45 PM CST.

Well, I kind of agree with you. King is going to do what they think is best for them. And maybe they should only focus on the bottom line, relying only on momentum to stay relevant. And maybe they should lie to the players and tell them they are making changes to enhance the player experience when the players are telling them it is ruining the game. And maybe they should instruct paid employees to start a thread calling the removal of a feature a fix and then tell him to announce that an official statement is forthcoming from the Studio when it's not and then either instruct or at least allow him to abandon the thread without giving the promised reason it was so important to rip away this feature from players for the second time in one year. And maybe it is best for them to use rely on poorly informed volunteers to police the community--bless their hearts. Maybe they should do all these things. Or maybe they will realize too late that this is not what is best for them.

As always Suzy, an excellent post that sums up the idiocy that has surrounded this thread since its inception. At this point it’s farcical how King has ignored this post for over a month as it must be the hottest topic on all of their game forums. I definitely expected better from such a large company and can only hope that players have left in droves due to their innumerable “fixes” and “tweaks” in recent weeks - all of which serve to screw over the player as much as possible.

so crazy that the fish will eat up empty cake pieces on a cake bomb and leave the uneaten,
so crazy that the maximum number of gold bars u can win is 5 after working so hard in the episode race yet the minimum amount of gold bars you can spend is 7 that is for the extra moves spin wheel!!! of which it is not guaranteed that you will receive the extra moves!!

@MataiceAlison;

When you're beating a level after another, sometimes you don't want the streak to end. I only use Gold Bars if I have them on hand for winning the Episode Race or from Sugar Drops. I never paid anything not even a penny since I started playing Candy Crush Saga. Although it doesn't really affect anything for me money wise since they don't really have any cash value in them, I still feel that it is a total waste especially when the exchange value is unfairly set the way it is right now. If they require Completion of 15 Levels to Win 5 Gold Bars, then that should be the Minimum Exchange for anything in the Game to be fair.

Hey, I just created an Idea Thread to this effect. If you want to see it, go to Since Episode Race Requires 15 Levels To Win 5 Gold Bars, The Minimum Exchange Should Be 5 Gold Bars In The Game and Vote with this link: https://community.king.com/en/candy-crush-saga/discussion/276044/since-episode-race-requires-15-levels-to-win-5-gold-bars-the-minimum-exchange-should-be-5-gold-bars/p1?new=1

the Free Board Reset)

Losing a level with 1 Jelly Left because there is no match
available to clear it and no Lollipop Hammer to whack it.

@mercerik
this is what really drives me nuts,
spinning the extra moves wheel 3 times consecutively and recieving the stupid jelly fish 👿👿 as how can i receive 3 jellyfish for as much as 21 goldbars , those jelly fish dont know how many episodes i have to complete in 1st position to acquire all those goldbars!!!
i wish they could remove those guys from the extra moves wheel!!!

@MataiceAlison

You are not alone on that. I also get those confused and drunk jelly fish as well. These are useless on Cake Bomb Levels. Oftentimes, they nibble on candies instead of the one slice cake that's left on the board making me lose the level.

Gold Bars in Exchange for 5-Extra Moves on Failed Levels is a joke. It requires 10 Gold Bars to get the first 5-Extra Moves, 16 on the second time and goes up from there. You can burn all your reserves in 1 Game depending on the Degree of Difficulty. Do you know how many levels you have to beat to win these Gold Bars in the Episode Race? It takes 15 Levels to win 5 Gold Bars. It takes Boosters, Power-Ups and Gold Bars to win a Level. Isn't that crazy and infuriating?

where only a small number here buts that’s only because we’ve bothered to voice our opinions.
