    New Event far too One Sided?

    Honestly I think the new format is far too one sided to the people who purchase gold. In the time it takes me to get 1 safe i'm passed by people who just earned 3 almost instantly.

    I like the style, but for the people who like to play without spending money this is like a kick in the face to most of us. I think there should be a prize for people who purchase gold then a prize for the people who spent none.

    Who agrees?

    What they should do is on the day that the event starts, on the event screen it asks you if you're a free player or a gold buyer. Then the free players and the gold buyers have the same event but different leaderboards so it can be fare for everyone.

    If you don't think it's fair, spend gold. If you don't want to spend gold, you must not want it all that bad. If you don't want it all that bad, who cares?

    I suspect at least a couple hundred free players will get the car. The knuckles SHOULD be out a free player's reach. Can we confine the whining about gold players to one thread at least?

    What about the players who got the 10th item will become visable in the leaderboard and they can then compete against each other on the grand prize?

    So that free players can have a chance to get the 10th item whereas the gold spender can spend whatever they like to get the grand prize.

    As a free player i can't even get to the car. I keep getting bumped out. Every fail the chip climbs further away. I gave up on the knuckles the second I saw them. I would spend money if I had the money to spend :/

    Yeah I started out in the top by 2, fell out of it and was down by 2, now I'm up by 2 again. Streaks happen. Keep plugging away at it and see what happens. If you don't get it, someone else got luckier. Big whoop. But you're NOT just playing against gold players... there are less people pumping gold into this than you think, and the whining is unseemly.

    What's with everyone having the something for nothing mentality? You're probably playing the wrong game. I hear all players are equal in Hello Kitty's Island Adventure. The company has to make money so that the free players can play at all.
    Someday - and that day my never come, I'll call upon you to do a favour for me. But until that day, accept this justice as a gift.

    It's not the something from nothing mentality...and I should probably put in at this point that i've put about 200 gold into this event so far and I'm not even in the top 500.

    So.

    ...yeahh...

    Soo you're a gold spender arguing the event is too one sided for people who spend gold. Rather disproved your own assertion.

    This is the first event i'm spending gold on. I just couldn't keep up doing free openings, it was ridiculous.

    Other than that I don't really buy or spend gold. I've gotten tired of the something from nothing that luck hasn't bestowed upon me.

    In the previous events, at least free players were guaranteed 3 free items to add to their arsenal (Ie: 7th item prize not that hard to obtain)....now you have to be lucky as hell to reach the third item as a free player, let alone reach the top 500. I started the KA event right on time, averaged at least 15 opens a day with the middle option, and only ended up on 14 vials. I hope they are just testing the waters with this event style...but I wouldn't be surprised if they stay either...

    I like how they reduced the drop rate on the boxes though. Now it doesn't feel like i'm missing out if the event ends and I have 120 in my inventory

    Lol. Yeah I can blow through 40 stamina and be lucky to find 5 boxes....maybe I'm just in a bad level/ally bracket.
