GREE-Please explain boost stacking

[Yankster]

Hopefully they'll forget about it ... Lets wave a flashy high stat toy in a LTQ event and see if they remember after a couple weeks.

Here's an idea to make up for the miscommunication regarding 'like units' not stacking:

Find everyone who got the +energy unit in question. Give us a 1x mission that gives us the boost and delete the unit that does not work. I do not want to see it every time I look at my bonus list.

I'm thinking along the lines of "Attack the Insurgent Leader 1x and Win {cool tank} with +2 Energy"...

I love this idea. Forget the units that aren't working with your coding. Set up a simple mission, a la, the special pirate ship that simply needed 1 pvp win to win, and put with it +2 energy and/or +20% health regen for those that got those units during the LTE.

Would it not be possible to just change the bonus for one of the units? Say lower one unit's health regeneration bonus from 20% to 15%? Seems like a quick-fix solution to me, and while yes there will be complaints that 20% is less than 15%, it's a heck of a lot better than 0% and 1000's of tickets being sent in...

can you tell me what/if there's anything wrong with this idea, please?

Okay guys, a couple of things after speaking with the designers/devs. Firstly, I would like to say that we're currently swinging into an attempt to get all of the boost effects cleaned up so they're all showing up properly. That's a larger topic than the original post, but it has come up a bunch in the thread. That said, in regards to this case:

1: These old units which include the boosts should not have been included in this LTQ (same for the last LTQ where an old Collect 10 item was used), that was a mistake due to an internal miscommunication.

2: For units that give a boost effect, that boost does not stack with itself. We can't make them stack with themselves. The raw attack/defense stats obviously still apply properly.

3: Units that have a boost effect and are part of the same item group (are different level/strength tiers of the same item, like the Covert Jet Fighter and the Falcon Supersonic) will not stack with each other. We can't make that happen either. Again, the raw attack/defense still adds to your attack/defense.

We're currently looking into what we CAN do for this case, and we have also put checks in place to prevent this from happening again.

Getting very confusing!!! My profile page still is not showing individual bonus boost so hard to track all these units with boost!! What gives?? I'm doing the LTQ but only to find out boost are not stacking up? What's the point of doing elite if boost don't add up? Is there a fix in the mix?? Wow using gold and boost not being taken into account...

1- please fix profile issues

2- please fix boost issues...allow stacking up or give out new units with the boost that were advertise!

[steveo127]

click on "view bonuses" and then click on the different tabs at the top of the screen. then scroll down and you should be able to see every boost that you have, whether by a unit or a WD event bonus, or a building, all bonuses should be there....assuming you have iOs...i'm not sure about android

So what I really want to know is... can I read "looking into what we CAN do" as "go ahead and get these units... it will be worth it"? What does everyone think?

I'm just going as far as I can without any more gold and then calling it quits. Probably about level 34-35 in prestige mode.

Thank goodness Devin posts his results so we can make decisions based on solid information, vs. the total vacuum we get from Gree.

Bump. Great post. My thoughts exactly.

[Marcus76]

Why offer the exact same unit for normal and prestige mode if the boosts don't stack? It makes prestige mode a waste f time.

[Marcus76]

Is the best way to explain this that you only get credit for one boost item per attribute? If you have 4 health regen boosts, then only one applies? Is the same true for units that boost air attack? If I have multiple, I only get a boost from one?

That makes all the events with special units useless to long time players. Once you have a boost unit, then you don't need another. No point in spending gold for additional boosts that don't stack.

[Scoucer]

What makes even less sence is that they give them out on the same event... We obviously have the first one before we get to the second so it's a useless bonus right away, why even put it in as a prize???

[Baltimore Bully]

More laziness from gree...

[megaants]

does the health regen work, did anybody check this?

Don't know about the stacking or the math but regen on the boss event is down 5 min. for me, I have both 20% units, course I had both before the boss event started which is why I'm not sure if they stack.
