Facebook versus Email Log In

ericeng206

Hello everyone. I am new to CCSS and I love it! However, I would like to ask if anyone can tell me if there is a difference in any in-game boosts, options, restrictions, etc. for when connecting via Facebook versus logging in with email instead? 

I ask because I notice when I read online help-articles on this game that there are certain features that are mentioned that I do not ever see. I have played for a couple weeks so it's not as if I am in the "Tutorial" period of the game. 

For a reference I never get any wheel to spin. I do not get any boots that I can purchase. Sometimes I get a certain "mode" that is activated for Consecutive Wins which allows me to equip/bring up to 5 boots. Which coincidentally happen to be the exact same 5 boots that must choose/select prior to each battle.

I am not connected to Facebook. I log in via email. Thank you for taking time to help me understand if it would actually benefit me to connect to my Facebook account.

Hi @ericeng206  

Currently the King has released a large number of new events & offers, and has shared it through a few groups. Not all events/ offers are for everyone. Before any change is implemented a randomly chosen group of players is selected to trial the feature, and based upon how the change is viewed king then decide whether the change is one they want to adopt or not. This feature has been rolled out to different players for a certain amount of time but not everyone will receive this.
The test group is not selected according to the device i.e. it is randomly selected. Don't be discouraged, your test group may change at any moment.😉

Hi @ericeng206
We warmly welcome you to the Friendly King Community's Candy Crush Soda Saga forum.🤗

If you don't have a challenge but your friend does, don't worry - you won't be missing out.

At King, we are constantly looking for ways to make our games more fun, interactive and challenging. Whenever we create a new feature, we always like to test it with a small group of players first, to make sure that they like it as much as we do. To do this we always choose a randomly selected group of players to test the feature and based on their feedback decide whether it's something we want to roll out to all our players or not.  

Once the testing has taken place, we'll roll it out so more people can play it.  However, due to the huge community of our players who we love, we sometimes have to split it up to make it manageable and accessible.  Millions of players in an event at any time is a lot of work, so we split it up into groups so we can keep it running and you have a better chance of accessing it and succeeding in any competition!

We appreciate it may be frustrating if your friends have a feature that you don't, but it's highly likely you'll be getting it very soon and bear in mind that when you do have an event or challenge, it's quite likely your friends won't have it this time.  

Keep an eye out for the latest updates to the game to ensure you benefit from all the new levels and features that we release on a regular basis. 

You'll get a random chance of free Gumball Goody rewards from the machine at regular intervals, so once you've received the complimentary rewards, you'll find there's a 'cool-down' period before you can claim your next delivery.

If you'd like to cut the wait time before the delivery, but also increase the number of Gumballs you'll receive, you can take the option to buy a turn of the machine - which will deliver a higher number of gumballs AND a higher chance of them carrying a greater value.

By tapping the 'i' symbol next to each Gumball machine, you'll be shown the chance rates of receiving the different colored balls and their likely contents.  You'll find boosters, time delivered boosters and also there are some unlimited lives mixed in there too.  Plenty of opportunities!
