Bunch of wankers greed
Very stupid move Gree, you've just annoyed your customer base even further by extending the event.
A complimentary 500 gold would have been sufficent for the issues this weekend.
Why don't you run a poll before doing this kind of thing?
You don't really shock me anymore but this is shocking
We had to do the poll ourselves and I totally agree; why not run a poll once in a while?
You guys have something for free that other companies pay for.....a customer base that is interested in talking to you....It would be so easy to check interest by doing a poll sometime and feedback would be swift...
So gree is punishing us for their mistake?
I think that makes sense in the greetarded world.
Their apology forces us to battle more in order to keep our spots and not drop out of certain top spots.
It forces us to use more gold if we are trying to get higher.
I would prefer a golden apology, give me back the gold already wasted on your BS idea of making this up to us.
the wars are already a little on the long side....extending further into a weekday is a negative, not a make up
this is what gree thinks, "hey, it's bad enough we screwed them up, why don't we make it worse." And change your name to greedy already.
Of all the stupid, clueless, insipid, and insulting decisions Gree has made, I am 99% sure this is at the very top of the list.
Why not just extend it the whole month? Make these battles a monthly thing? You start on the first and end on the last day of the month, then you start a new one?
When we get close to 9 PM tomorrow, are you going to point out that you haven't fixed the droid scroll issue, and to make up for it you're going to add another 48 hours to the battle?
Do you somehow live in an insane asylum, where adding an extra six hours somehow only benefits those who had matchup problems and not the syndicates who didn't have any issues?
Is Gree actually some sort of secret dark comedy reality show, with the joke being how much grief you can put your customers through while the audience laughs?
I don't think this impacts SAS, FC, or RG. It's definitely going to impact many top 10, top 25 and top whatever teams who go into battle expecting 60 people putting up XXX IP each to achieve an appropriate finish. I think legal action by any syndicate who finds themselves in a top 10/top 25/top 100/whatever position at noon PST tomorrow but outside the bracket at 6 PM PST would be entirely warranted and reasonable. Of course, I am not a lawyer. So what do I know.
No wonder your stocks are in the dumps!
Really? You deleted the poll thread? Are you going to pretend we all like this decision and ban anyone who talks about it?
You don't need a lawyer. Call Apple and ask for a refund. Gree changed the timing which unfairly impacts the money you spent. If Gree will not refund you then Apple likely will. If enough people do this than Gree might actually take note and try to fix the game they have destroyed.
Assuming that you're telling the truth, and that this extension is to compensate us, or do us a favour, because of the screw-up this weekend, then look at the responses that you have gotten.
WE DO NOT LIKE THIS. IT IS MAKING THE SITUATION WORSE. WE DO NOT FEEL THIS COMPENSATES US, IT IS THE OPPOSITE, IT MAKES IT WORSE. If you're telling the truth about your intentions, then redact this extension. Start another sticky stating that you will NOT do this.
If this is NOT to do us a favour, then continue with this extension. It then begs the question, what is the REAL reason for this extension.
Gree this is so stupid to extend the battle just another way to make money. I hope you change your mind when you realize you can't even handle regular battles without problems.
At the cost of losing their customers. It could be an excellent business point of view, but really suck in retaining customers or making their customers feel valued for long term. Which is ALOT more important if your business wants to stick around for awhile.
Compensating your best customers with 200 gold is nothing compare to the income you've been getting. It is not even a vault! But a little give like that sure make your customer happy.
Get your GM to order some brain... I've been quiet so far and I'm one of your best customer spending vaults of gold every 3 weeks. But now I'm getting really sick of this bs..
...and yet people will stay and people will pay.
Let me just add my name to the loooong list of ppl who think this idea sucks.... It's funny that many of our syndicates can't agree on anything else, but I think we can all see this for what it is.
.....This may be a first, but even I agree with Dippy!
Dumb. People work hard to pace themselves through the tournament. With 1/3 of the time left go burn out the syndicate leaders for another 6 hours, make a ton of people worry longer and try to rip that rent money out of their pockets. Here's another kick in the balls because we like the game. Never mind gree. Wtf is wrong with us to stick around?
@ TG3d I hate to say it but, I 2nd that lol..
This is a very valid point Gree!
You've got the tools and customer base at your disposal so why don't you use them?
This extension can easily be undone and some complimentary gold sent out to all as an apology. I can't stress enough that this is your only option now.
Like Montecore said it's not really going to affact the top 3 but i really feel sorry for all the other teams in the top 500.
By continuing with this extension you're going to piss a lot of players off. Players are getting burnt out left, right and centre and quitting the game as it is, this isn't helping that situation. When the leader and co-creator of Fight Club quits the game because he's had enough of the company that runs it, surely that sends you a message that you're not doing things correctly. He was one of your biggest spending customers across all platforms and the changes to the gold bonus program was the beginning of the end for him. Other Crime City legends and top players are calling it a day, just start listening and asking us a bit more and you'll find players will be more willing to spend and hang around for the entertainment.
Extending the event is only going make players feel even worse than they already do and the fact that we've all become use to the event finishing at the same time you're only causing more disruption to you customers lives with this extension.
Personally i think the syndicate events should only be 48 hours long and run from Friday to Sunday. Why don't you run a poll to find out what everyone else thinks............ na that would be too easy :)
I know you're reading this Gree and it doesn't affect Fight Club but as a team we really feel for the other players in all the other teams because they are the ones who are going to suffer from this extension.
Undo the extension now and send out some free gold and all will be forgotten by the time the next event comes round. I really don't know what other advice to give you.
To everyone else, i feel for ya and stay strong! Our voice will be heard! (Finger crossed)
I can't believe they decided this was the way to "help" us all.. by extending something that we all simply want to end. A weekend full of errors, and bugs. BooOOooO!
I am adding to the long list against this extension.
You don't change rules as and when you like. 3days duration MUST stay.
Speechless.
Just another unhappy, maybe short term, customer.
This is your worst decision made yet, I hope you haven't also put the prizes up in reverse order again as well,
Worst idea ever.
And that is saying something considering all the other screw ups from gree(d)
I will no longer purchase any gold, ever. Going to be a completley free player from this point on.
Come on, the war is too long in th first place! Worst decision (first decision) u ever made!
