New feature - Mr Toffee's Fair!

@Elsa,
can we be serious and honest? after the massive lay off of Feb 19, King had to close the Seattle studio... Most of King is in Europe, but ZZlive at Seattle was close to 1/3 of their activity.
A to Mr Smarty Pants, unless AI has progressed dramatically in the past months, it was still created by human beings. I'm not sure at all most of them worked for King.
I've never really played Mr T, with its brilliant intelligence. A few times, in the evening, fed up by the game itself, I would pick up 2 tasks, usually done in a few minutes. Once, I picked up the only one that could give a line, "pass 2 frosting levels". I had to pass 4 to get an hour of free play. But anyway, I would have had to go through to get ahead.
I've found other games, but I liked the old Soda. Maybe I will find another one I like best, I hope so.
Albert Camus answered the question: "Can you despise a human being?" by "Yes, every time one is motivated by the love of money or greed." I think it summarizes the present situation quite well.
ps I like you because you kind of say what you think. Don't disappoint me!!0 -
Bad enough having to suffer mtf, now my gum balls have gone, what’s happening with soda!
has anybody else lost them?0 -
Bullywooly, I lost them too but it’s hardly anything to worry about. I found that I only get one useful reward from that feature a week-the lollipop. An hour of infinite lives is beyond useless and the half hour of the chocolate ball is only good when playing BGH or the new levels on Friday. With BGH available every day it’s better to beat that as you get a meaningful reward and an hour of the useless free lives to boot.
As for the point of the thread, Mr. Traitor’s Farce, @Xarly, do these people at the studio look at the reviews themselves or do they just rely on you and others to relay feedback? In my line of work, I occasionally create things for the public to enjoy and would be very bothered by seeing even one negative response, let alone thousands upon thousands with zero positives anywhere. Perhaps suggest to them to check out this thread, CCSS fb posts, google play reviews, Apple App Store reviews, and fb reviews - among any other outlets I may have missed.
In the meantime I hope that none of you that are stuck with the Farce play it as that is only providing positive data to the studio.1 -
I sure hope that you are not going to put me on a pedestal because then you might get disappointed. @Anne_Martin, I was laid off from my job after working there for 8 years. Things happen. LIfe changes. I found another job and I'm sure those who were let go from their office closing will find other jobs. I would love to make their 6 figure salaries. Don't feel sorry for them. I survived the layoff and others survive it too.Anne_Martin said:@Elsa,

Hi @bullywooly, I don't think we've met before. IF you think this is the only game with a problem, it's not. I opened Candy Crush Saga today to find out that events were gone. I forget what the message said but it was something about someone needing a rest. I can't remember now which ones they were but things happen. I sure hope you get your gum balls back soon. Are you able to play Bubblegum Hill? This week the 5 levels were not bad at all!bullywooly said:Bad enough having to suffer mtf, now my gum balls have gone, what’s happening with soda!

They have been reading the messages. I am just not privy to what they have to say after checking out the posts here.Dirty_Nurse said:Bullywooly, I lost them too but it’s hardly anything to worry about.

Elsa, you always say that you simply volunteer here and as such have no knowledge about what goes on at the studio. How are you sure, then, that the designers of the Farce actually directly see the negative impact that their designs have on the game?Elsa said:

By now, after many thousands of negative comments and absolutely ZERO positives, a reputable company would have done something to remedy the situation. Such as remove the feature and return the quests to all players. I don’t know about you but I’ve never heard a negative comment about the quests...0 -
Hi @Dirty_Nurse I am getting the word that they come here. And I believe my sources.0

“Here” is one thing, do they also see how poorly-perceived this “feature” is everywhere else too? There are ZERO positive comments anywhere about it. If that’s not enough motivation to revert the game back to its pre-Farce state I don’t know what else would be.Elsa said:Hi @Dirty_Nurse I am getting the word that they come here.

they have nothing to say until they notice in a month they have lost half the income of CCSoda...I have fewer commercials than before. Is it the first sigh?
I don't put people in pedestals, don't worry. I know things happen and life is not a valley of roses, alas! But to put it another way, I dislike a lot the yes-men, the goodies-goodies, the perfect valets of any system. As soon as someone can't have an opinion independent of his boss, he belongs to the lackey, and some here are more Catholic than the pope.
Yes, even Activision can make bad mistakes...1
