hasn't it already gone downhill

Time to get refund from iTunes people
Seriously sucks to be one of the teams that started a new level a few minutes before Gree changed the requirements. We have tried everything to get it to update, but seems once you start a level with a couple hundred kills required you have to finish it for the update to take effect. So, guess what? We now have to do a couple hundred extra kills just for the privilege of going on, and it will take all night. Which means we won't be able to finish prestige level because of the wasted hours. Unless.... we spend a fortune in gold to finish it, which hardly seems fair does it? I am really looking forward to how Gree comes up with their idea of "fair" regarding this. My guess... sorry, it's the best we could do, and at least you got a break on the rest right?
Hey guys,
We have another brief update.
The issue has been fixed going forward and the event has been extended by one additional day.
We will keep you posted on any other updates regarding a plan of action as soon as we can.
We do apologize for the inconvenience.
So what does this mean for prestige?
Are you kidding?
Tadaaah ...
When I contacted apple and showed them Tardavic post and the email I got from customer service saying tough luck we won't refund you. I was told apple has already opened an investigation into gree and their practices.
The fact they changed the requirements unevenly falls under their fraudulent practices criteria.
Gree really needs to make this right or offer a huge compensation immediately.
Gree inc. , a 900 stock , will not be happy with the San Francisco subsidiary if they cause them to lose access to apple.
You apologize for the inconvenience!?!?!! This is well beyond inconvenient. You have effectively SCREWED everyone and all you have for us is "we apologize for the inconvenience". Arent you guys tired of apologizing event after event?? Guess what!! We are all painfully aware of how sorry you all are so kindly take your BS apologies, stuff them up your blowholes, and figure out how FIX THIS train wreck!!!!!
Popcorn anyone ?
the event has been extended an additional day? man this is getting to be ridiculous, yes i agree 100% with the people in this fourm, this is not acceptable expecially for those factions where we are stuck on 9/10 or 10/10 and have to go through 700,000 kills inorder for the new updates to take effect! (700,000 exaggerated but we all know this is gree math) how are you going forward with the same developers? glitch after glitch after glitch.. i cannot remember a WD campaign without a glitch can anyone else? (besides brazil but even then they made WD a 5 day campaign if i recall right....LOL)
Didnt they already lose Amazon? If Apple shuts down Gree we can find a new game with better customer service and programming. Any suggestions? We as consumers have a choice. Just waiting for a class action lawsuit. Serious Gree make this right. Ive played since before first WD, and even your most basic of events continue to have issues after issue.
Give them a break guys... It's not like they've put out many LTQ's at this point in the game...
Also, I read in the other thread that the employees play and test the game. No one caught this? Seriously?
It seems fairly easy to calculate how much energy has been used on each level and apply that to a go forward. Whilst fixing this fubu, suspending ongoing progress and restarting the event at a predetermined time/date enables everyone to prepare. To summarize:
1. Suspend event
2. Apply energy used and advance factions to that point
3. Announce time date event will restart
4. Restart event as announced.
There is your action plan to satisfy every player. They get credit for the effort (and gold) put in. The event functions as intended.
CONCEDE DEFEAT. HAND OUT THE PRIZE (don't skip anyone like you skipped me on last one and I still haven't received my xxxxxx SU-37!!!!!) AND TOTAL THIS DISASTER OUT. FFS.
I was about to say I only see one major problem with your solution but then thought of more. The one: it makes way too much sense. Then I also thought.... it would require Gree to communicate with us effectively to pull it off. And... they would need to go borrow a competent programmer from the elementary schools intro to tech class to figure out how to make it happen. Apparently the ones they have are doing the best they can.
I know that the whole computer industry was started in some guys garage, but I think with the amount you're charging you should have been able to move out of yours by now.
Not a word of this major screw up in game. This solution will not do! You have screwed people over and are doing nothing about it.
We as consumers have choices. We can bring acrimony, sarcasm and disgust to the forums. That seems contrary to our desired goal of having fun playing a game. I choose not to be that person.
We can sit silently and ultimately walk away when the problems surpass our tolerance level. I am considering this option.
We can offer suggestions and hope that enthusiastic new employees, like tadaah (bad idea for a name btw, someone should have warned you) can make a difference. For them to succeed, we need to provide guidance and encouragement.
I like this game when it works. For now I will offer advice and encourage others who like the game to do the same.
Yes. We done 129 kills at 8. Mission 9 is 16 kills..
This really is Gree-tarded my facti9n is on 10/10 and pretty much gave up when we saw 235 kills required, all that gold, time, effot, xp wasted and we have to finish this before it resets!!!!!!! Are you freakin kiddin me!!!!! WE WANT A REFUND
Does this mean that prestige has the required kills that normal started with?
If so, then it should have been left alone.
So not only do you have to finish a prestige level of kills to get to whatever level has been reached on the "original" normal but a faction gets to do it again when they complete current level and then blaze up into prestige. Reaching prestige to find the same hill in place.
If it was left alone the total energy needed would have been the same but now for those that have made it to normal 8, 9 or 10 it will be nearly doubled.
Big party foul. Drink.
Still no change for our faction, super nice...well may as well drop it now, and hope for better luck next time..
It's funny to see people still buy Gree gold on this game. Event after event comes with issues, poor communication, and crap fixes. If you think anything will change I'm sure you can get a job a Gree.
Remember, the next major bug is always just an event away.
This really is a joke, we struggled through 9/10 with 177 kills, with some members using a load of gold, and now other factions only need 16 kills. You can't change halfway through, play fair to everyone
