Well we have approximately 3 days left on this event and the clock is ticking. Every day that goes by and GREE does nothing the angrier and angrier people are becoming. I wonder if somebody will lose their jobs over this when revenue and player numbers start plummeting in the after shock of this gross display of incompetence.... This is the single biggest public relation disaster in the games history and it was so easy to foresee and so easy to avoid. People can understand programming glitches to some extent, but this disaster is completely the fault of GREE staff.

While this is a big one, I have to disagree. Its not the biggest. Changing the prize tiers 2 minutes before the end of a war was their biggest. Second would be taking prizes back during the last raid boss. Third would be changing the bonus program mid-month but making it retroactive. A lot of people got refunds due to those mistakes.
This one is more like a pain in the butt. But no one is wasting money atleast! Can't spend money if you don't have the uzis.

Yeah I know, I'm dreaming. It's not the only problem with raid bosses tho. Much more to fix like bosses freezing and prizes not getting awarded like they should. I'm still waiting on my Tilda's blade or whatever it was called (the one with 20% IP mod), the problem have been forwarded "directly to the developers" according to the support and I haven't heard anymore about it for weeks and still haven't received it.

Instead of tweaking stuff, they should spend one whole, entire week just fixing things. All the missing prizes, known bugs, known hacks, etc. Although the rivals list has been part of the problem, experimenting with it while letting other ridiculous issues (like that missing blade, I would have been furious if I had been cheated out of it) remain untouched for weeks.

I have to disagree. Changing the tiers was a complete blunder but it angered mainly the players in the top tiers who spent a ton of money. That is a lot of the people that troll this board, but most of GREE's customers don't participate in the forum. So, we never hear from them. The other crisis you mention about taking prizes away from players who never earned them was the right thing to do. Nobody likes their stats lowered, but at least it was the responsible move by the staff.
This blunder is affecting every player at every tier and it is a self inflicted wound. This is a completely unnecessary crisis that is easily remedied by a number of no brainer solutions. Who is getting ahead stat wise from this debacle?... people who buying uzis for cash from people who got them who knows how.... they are also laying the groundwork to flood money away from their company and towards less than honest people who do have uzi resources gain via exploitation, cheating, hacking, and possibly defrauding players. Boss difficulty should be controlled via boss hit points not a transferable resource.
The magnitude of this disaster also has to do with timing. We have had a long string of mismanagements and irritations... people do not change habits or make "big" life decisions unless there is crisis. This is the underlying principle of Change theory. This is unneeded trouble for GREE that piles trouble on trouble. You are going to get a lot of people looking at how much they are spending on this game and the unfairness of this situation while they watch others who are less than honest getting ahead every day. Every time they turn on the game and nothing is done it is like a slap to their faces and this will continue so long as GREE does nothing to help the situation... and what timing. Christmas time when there is a lot of itunes cards and money floating around and when players have time off. Angry and alienated players.... guess where those customers are not going to be spending that money. People will be losing their jobs over this, I guarantee it.Last edited by Armalg-the-Good; 12-19-2013 at 04:45 PM.
