New Feature: Soda Squad

marscrushinit · May 2019

Well im not a fan of team work on here as some don't participate but I'm going to be playing anyway so might as well earn something. I actually have been blessed with a great team so we're moving right along . I actually feel like I'm getting this completed faster than some of the quests. Definitely better than mtf 😁 . My only complaint is the rewards. I do wish they were as good as they were in the quests and I wish I could keep this team lol . That's my feedback @Xarly

I thought maybe level 2 would would certainly have a better payoff. I guess it was hopeful thinking. Me and 1 other reached level 1 today and got 30 minutes of striped candy. How exciting! Of course I only had 1 life at the time, lost and couldn't use it. The other 3 teammates have contributed a combined 10 points. The studio continues to have visions of everyone playing together to make winning easy. @Pummy Raj said in an earlier post that Diamond Digger has something similar that 2 out 4 usually play. Maybe someone will reach 800 and we'll see if it is worth the effort. In the meantime I will contribute but also not feel like I need to be in a hurry to get to 320!

As for this joke of a feature, if I didn’t still have the quests to maintain my supply of boosters I’d be livid. It doesn’t matter if the “teammates” play or not, the “rewards” - at least the ones we have seen - are basically worthless.

@Anne_Martin, another piece of the puzzle. I was hoping that the prizes would be comparable to the ones in the three levels of the quests. In other words boosters that could be saved until needed. Apparently not. Disappointing to say the least.

That's a great idea @candysodacrusher

@Xarly, I have a few questions about the composition of the squads that I hope you can give some insight into.
You mentioned that if a squad gets the 800 points, the team gets to stay together, correct? So what happens if a squad earns the 800 points thanks to the productivity of one or two players? Are those two productive players still stuck with the two inactive ones for the next series?

I’ve found this to be a game of streaks. There are times when I’m able to really make a good productive run of levels and other times when I’ve been stuck in an episode for weeks. So, let’s say I’ve had a few of those really productive runs and get bumped up into a group of equally productive players. Then I hit a dry streak and am unable to contribute as much. Do I get bumped back down into a group with less productive players?

Also, can you provide some insight into why the developers are putting so much focus on the team events?

Last, but not least, I appreciate all the work you put in managing these boards. Acting as a liaison between the developers and the players can’t always be an easy task. Thank you for your efforts.

So my team and I just reached the second treasure. We got 30 minutes of the coloring ball and 1 lollipop hammer. I really hope the last treasure is a lot more impressive than the first 2.

Reached 2nd chest. We won 30 minutes colour bomb and 30 minutes wrapped candy. Hopefully the 3rd chest gives boosters to save.

LauraLMason · June 2019

I have heard that stage 2 isn't much better. Our team only has 177 points 3 players have contributed a combined total of 28 with 1 still at 0. This should definitely be a feature that asks people if they want to participate in or not before assigning to a group. Maybe then there would be more teams with people that want to play and aren't filled with those who arent interested and end up effecting everyone else.
If anyone looks at the ideas section I have posted something about saving timed booster rewards. Give it a vote if you think it's any good!

My soda squad is back but I don't think the rewards are worth the effort. Maybe give striped lollipops or hand switchers instead.

This pic says it all. Absolutely ZERO players want that - this and the stripe are completely useless. The second tier of “rewards” are simply 2x 30 minute boosters and even if the last tier is one each of the six boosters it’s still not worth the effort. It’s unfathomable to me how King can keep cranking out - and even promoting! - these awful “team” features after unanimously poor feedback about them.

Anne_Martin · June 2019

no, not worth it, useless, no one from my squad plays it anymore, no more points coming.
