Definitely.
Besides for the new diamond crates that were introduced, all the bundles are definitely not up to par and are very insignificant compared to the last bundle. GREE needs to tweak their offers to make them more appealing to spenders.
If there gold offers stay this way then my cash stays in my pocket I only buy when there are bundles on offer so like yourself Mad4It I'm not a great gold spender
The gold sales lately have been laughable. No other way to put it lol
Its proberly so they can call some of the past or future offers a 50% sale its a retail thing, you can only call it 50% off if the prices was double that for a set time.
If they didn't claim 50% off or a sale. then they have no need To have it at full price for a set duration.
Normal Shops do it with new stock, they have it for a few months at a very high price, then offer it at a normal price but call it 50% off...
As gree are selling virtual goods it seems odd they have to do that, but maybe its a an AppStore thing.
I refuse to purchase anymore gold until the next 40% sale.
These sales are horrid. It's virtual product so to devalue it so much by offering so,little seems nuts. More players need to scream about this.
These sales are fantastic. It reinforces my decision to not spend anymore. I tried earlier but the 40% sale got me :(
They continue with the stupidity?.
They probably gonna do some stupid sales until you guys get sick of that, they will bring the old sale back, shoot top 20/10 top grossing ( that's what they are planning)
if its the gold you want then buy the $99 15000 gold, just you wont be getting extras that come with the sales
if you think about it this latest sale you get 24 recruits to open... a regular elite recruit is 600g so lets say a guaranteed epic would be anywhere from 1000-1200? so really the 8000g you get is just equaling everything out?
just a thought...maybe coiners have been getting a little too "GREEdy"
...i dont coin btw
W25_Venom, a lot of us who do spend only coin because of the gold offers, yeah we could buy the $100 for 15k gold but it's not enticing enough, when Gree add in comms, ports, speed ups, boxes etc what I personally like to think is it's "Value for MY money" and it's been said before in many other threads it's only virtual items so it's not as if Gree are losing anything by putting those kind of sales on really all it takes is a programmer to click a button on a keyboard...... ��
Lol Duriel's that's quite funny
Sadly, it's true. A lot of sales for bundles have gone down recently because of the gold drop. I know that it is to account for the prizes that are included, but the gold needs to increase to 10000+ to make the bundle really worthwhile.
There is no way they are making increased or even the same profits using this model. Most in my world won't touch these junk sales.
We've become accustomed to the special offers, we should remember before these offers became permanent they were few and far between.
I like the others, will not be buying gold until the offers return to similar standards they were before, I have a feeling Gree is punishing everyone for the huge number of iTunes refunds they've probably had to fork out and it's backfiring but they're pretty adamant.
I've been playing this game since it first started and I've never been more disappointed in Gree than I am now, first hacks and their lack of resolve, constant outages and now deals not even worth consideration. Us old timers are of no value to Gree no more, I assume the new worlds are snatching up the current gold offers as they are non the wiser.
Totally agree IMY, us "Old Timers" who built this game and nurtured it through it's infancy have grown wise to Gree's tricks we are not blinded by the lite of these proxy bundles, we remner when buying gold was actually worth it , we remember when gree was not trying to bleed our pockets dry with never ending gold spending events.
Sadly, I have to agree. The bundles were MUCH better before, and is a huge contrast with what it is today. It's something for GREE to think about, but they've been stubborn on their decision so far.Quote:

Not in 39 the top alliances are still using there teleports one player I know had 43 of them after buying offer packs with them in.
Players are already saying the world is dead on wc. lots of players have already quit and its mostly the fact the gap between them and top players is a country mile and it was like that from day one now we are 31 days old we have a massive gulf the only protection is the 5 levels system but I would say we have less than 800 active / semi active lots of bases have stopped growing ie there level hasn't grown for over 2 weeks, so most likely have quit. Gree current game rules for new worlds just create new broken worlds I am sure they make loads of money from the few that coin but it just ends in a broken world sooner rather than later
I have seen top players from top 3 alliances quit already as they see the top alliances totally dominate events like hold out so getting high level commanders making it hard and expensive to keep up. Gree should try my suggestions for new worlds at least once to see the results..... As the current system doesn't creat stable worlds.
