Faction currently taking bets on whether or not this is gonna get banned.
Oh Gree. Usually I don't get up in arms about things in this game. I've played this dang thing from the very start and I intend to finish it out since I've already spent so much money on it. When I saw the new announcement about bonus wars, I was thrilled. Finally, a genuinely good idea by Gree to increase Wd points! This could be a lot of fun! Most were under the impression that these wars could come fairly often and that everyone would get them, and some were predicting this would be an epic WD. Surely nothing could go wrong...
Then came the gold tier. Gree had made another usual mistake, instead of 19.99 for the first tier pack it was 4.99! Many were all over this sale and buying as much gold as their iTunes account could let them. Until Gree decided to switch the price without notice back to 19.99. I get that you made a mistake, but maybe somebody at your headquarters should google "bait and switch" because switching the prices suddenly like that is not legal.
Despite that, many were still looking forward to these premium wars. But a day went buy, and many factions in the top 25 hadn't gotten one, including my faction, while others had gotten over 5. Teams that had never before broken the top 100 were now in the top 50 because of these wars. Then 2 days went by and many still hadn't had one. Finally, my team drew one with another team who hadn't had one yet. We were so excited! Until we realized that both scores stayed at 0 on the display the entire war and that the points actually decreased from normal, instead of going up. Our only premium war counted for close to nothing. Every support email comes back with the same thing about premium wars said in the announcement on the forum. Giving different customers special benefits for the same price in order to increase spending is another business infraction, Gree.
This game used to be in the top 5 on the App Store in terms of profit. It could still be! Gree, your profits could be 10x what they are now if you guys actually hired anybody to proofread your stuff! I honestly think my kid could program almost as well as you guys. I have never before seen a company trash their product so badly, a product that was once earning them billions because of incompetence. Each day because of this incompetence more people quit the game, and the spiral continues to spin out of control. It saddens me to see so many old friends quit the game, quit a product that we all used to love and bonded over all due to a company that uses unethical and sometime illegal business practices, and can't even set the right prices for its goods.
Maybe we should stop spending gold and instead use our money to hire a class-action lawyer.
