Avoid the LTQ, it sucks!!

[The Billionaire]

Gree, you're having a laugh if you think players are going to spend a huge amount of gold on this LTQ when the daily prize has no modifier!!!

I would suggest everyone avoids spending gold on this LTQ as I've just completed level 15/15 for day 1 and I'm extremely disappointed to find the prize is a 38k/25k weapon with no modifier. I'm lucky enough to have +29 energy regen so it only cost me 100 gold to complete day 1 but I'd dread to think what it would cost a player with normal energy regen hence why I'm advising you don't waste your gold.

It's also quite amusing how it's called triple threat although there's 4 parts to the LTQ.

Come on, sort it out Gree! Players don't mind spending but it's gotta be worth the spend and this one certainly isn't.

**Edited once day 2 started. Saw the below in a communal chat room and the person who posted it asked that it be shared on the forum. Reading other comments on this thread it seems you really are taking the mickey Gree. 4 days of LTQ at 700 gold per day for a daily prize that doesn't have a modifier.

Total energy = 38,732

�� = projected energy

Normal energy = 34,412 starting at 0, 700 gold per day (that's for the normal people)

We need this information on the forum.....

Final prize is 10% Armour Attack
No news on a daily prize/boost

I would say......STAY AWAY UNLESS YOU HAVE MONEY TO BURN!

Another poor LTQ, if anyone goes for it and there is a daily boost then it may be different.....but 2 vaults for 99% of this game for a rubbish prize? Save your gold for something else.

Need to take a leaf out of Modern War and make these events interesting for all.....

UPDATE.....DAY 2 Is now live, more levels, more gold, still same crappy units with no daily boost. Better off buying from the store each day if you do want to do it....

[B0ST0N]

Even wrappers aren't worth the spend. A lot of things aren't worth it. They turned a MOBILE GAME into s job. It's crazy. No you don't need to do every event but still... pretty bad. Some people spend thousands a month on this. I hope they get help. I DID!

Thanks gree. Will be playing for free instead of spending 300-800$ a month.

[Evan1000]

I don't know what's more insane.. having +29 energy regen and still having to use gold to complete an LTQ or an LTQ that sucks so bad a guy from TAW actually posted a warning thread about it

Thanks The Billionaire, maybe now GREE will actually listen to us.. or continue to ignore us completely

[Nighteg]

With this coming from a member of TaW, now i know that gree hit a new low indeed.

[Greeny1]

I posted walk through in another thread, cost the normal player with no mods about 700 gold per day to finish.....all for 1 crappy bonus.

[Blaggard]

With this coming from a member of TaW, now i know that gree hit a new low indeed.

This basically.

[FrapMaster]

I've been playing for about 8 months now and have spent around $200/mo. I've finally come to the point where enough is enough and this thread only confirms that. I'm not spending a single penny any longer. Once I use up the gold I have left, Gree can lick my free player ass.

Fun game, sh!t support and lousy business practices. I found a better game to spend my $200 on. Don't worry Gree, I'll still be here using up your server space for free with my 4 accounts.

Actually there is a mod at the very end. Think of it as a 3-day (or 4-day?) LTQ. You have to finish 15/15 all 3 (or 4?) days to get the mod.

(I haven't figured out how a Triple Threat has 4 parts, yet, or what GREE means with it.)

I'm curious how much the buy-out costs. It might save you the time and tappy.

[Dipstik]

I hear a bunch of Fight Clubbers are selling their accounts and quitting. I'm curious how much they hope to recoup. Can you shed some light on this, bill?

[Greeny1]

Day 2 is up, new targets, now 20 levels. And the prize for day one can be purchased for 375 gold. So if you want the final prize it's probably cheaper and no xp to just buy the units each day. But still rubbish for a rubbish reward.

[plavine]

Not to mention if you didn't finish day one - you can't even do day 2 because one of the requirements on day 2 1/20 is to have the prize from finishing day 1 .

[lordsagacity]

Not to mention if you didn't finish day one - you can't even do day 2 because one of the requirements on day 2 1/20 is to have the prize from finishing day 1 .

Worst LTQ ever.

[Perin]

Lol exactly. Now we all get to focus on raid boss since 99% of us didnt finish day 1. Brilliant idea gree

[cooch]

Remember Bill:

Mgmt at Gree decided stat inflation was way to build sales growth in short term...now consequences wreck havoc long term...even developers admitted trying to slow stat inflation and I bet mod inflation.

They've dug a hole so big not sure how to get back to old profit trend on games....LTQs are dreary events anyway.

[Green Drake]

So if I go to the store and drop 350 gold I can buy the item? Does that count towards daily goal without having to waste time and gold on LTQ?

[polly]

Its possible that new gold item for 375 gold is it, but that means one each day

[Greeny1]

Yes, buy the gold item for 375 and that was yesterday's goal done, then do day 2 or wait and buy the next unit tomorrow

[Green Drake]

rather than drop roughly 700 gold to do LTQ each day makes more sense to just but each item unless tomorrow's item costs more than 375?

[The Billionaire]

Both are insane and as bad as each other lol

Fight Club was so 2013 Dippy, come on buddy catch up!

Yes that would be the best thing for anyone who wants to complete the LTQ but at a total cost of 1,500 gold for the wrapper mod, is it worth it? I don't think it is.

[The_Don]

Even if you were inclined to do this LTQ, working and living prevented it as you cannot continue on unless you completed step one. HUGE loss here for GREE.

[Weasel]

Seeing as no part of the LTQ can be completed "for free", and the goal for part 1 must be completed in order to proceed with part 2, this game is no longer free to play. I cannot play this event unless I have spent and am willing to continue spending a literally stupid amount of gold.

Gree, either make the app a paid download or develop goals that engage everyone who wants to participate. Better yet, fire the Crime City product manager because their decisions are driving away potential customers. Fired out of a cannon or with an actual flamethrower are my two suggestions.

[SemoreButtz]

Very disappointed that there is not a cash option to buy the needed items to continue with the ltq...oh well as a lvl 250 I guess I'll go back to clearing maps to lvl 5 for the skill points with my free energy

[Babytway]

this thread should be stickied

[headfaction]

Never did a LTQ. It's a scam to get your level up and have you spend more money with epic boss, war, and ect. In any other game it benefits you to raise your level to the highest but not with these gree suckas.

[polly]

I'm pissed I can't do the first 6 levels just for the bricks

[scottmac112]

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank the fine folks at Gree (if you even read this) for giving me a great time to finally quash my CC addiction with this travesty of an LTQ. You've finally pushed me over the edge, and I (and my wallet) thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

What help did you get?

[Weasel]

What help did you get?

A foreclosure letter from the bank.

[polly]

The problem is, it could be a different item each day and go up in gold cost

[Dctrbar]

So if I go to the store and drop 350 gold I can buy the item? Does that count towards daily goal without having to waste time and gold on LTQ?

No it does not

[Babytway]

bad 5.5.1 update and worse ltq

[Captain Torgue]

Broseph quit complaining, the mollies finished all 4 parts in the first hour gold free.

[B0ST0N]

A foreclosure letter from the bank.

No. But I did see the big picture and go gold free.

[Johnathan Alexander Pike]

My part 1 is at canal street. Threatening an Aeriel Elwyn. Maybe it's different for various people that are at different levels? I'm lvl 159.

Anyway I threatened her (5x20) energy but now it doesn't go anywhere it says part 2 and it says complete part one ✔️ And it says collect from doing part one. Collect what? And there is no button to bring you to do anything ugh.

By the posts I am feeling like I am wasting my time and dedicating energy that I shouldn't

Anyways...anyone wanna join my gang? Biblical needs Syners and CONverts 665 623 980

My mob I'd 606 806 925

[Max Power]

I got 6 levels in the first day and realized this LTQ was jacked. No biggie, on to other things.

Only the Gree spreadsheets will tell if we will see another like this. Some people simply can't help themselves and must finish every event. We shall see how many there are.

[Dipstik]

Fight Club was so 2013 Dippy, come on buddy catch up!


Oh right... Rules #1 and 2. I gotcha! *wink* *wink*

Seriously though... the new name sucks. You should really change it back.

Was the therapy more expensive than the gold?

You must have a really tight budget unlike some of the top players. Obviously spending thousands a month on a mobile game is ludicrous. But I'd assume some of those players makes good money or came across good money and can blow it on whatever they like.

[Weasel]

Lol, the day 2 item is about 8k/5k weaker than the day 1 item and costs 50 more gold to buy.

Gree, you need to implement a drug free workplace. There is no way the person coming up with this stuff is sober. If they are, well you just need to hire someone who has graduated high school.

[CC ScRamZ]

Worst ltq... No point to even trying

[wawoftam]

Interesting read. Not sure personally what all the chatter is about but maybe because I haven't done an LTQ for ......well.......only when I log into MW

$6 Billion, yes, Billion dollars were spent globally on dumb app games globally. One man's dumb spend is another's man's casual purchase. Bet you spend dumb dollars on something you like or need that others think is pretty dumb. Perspective on priorities.

[RAMNUTS]

Thanks! Perfecto!
