Syndicate War Extended

[KING Mr932]

Damn, smh! Should've quit when I had the chance..

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.

I need my SAS attorney!!!

No wonder your stocks are in the dumps!

I would prefer a golden apology

well, we're already getting pissed on. i suppose that counts.

[Dipstik]

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.

Heads up,

After reviewing the various problems caused by guild matching earlier in the war, we've extended the event by 6 hours and will now end this Monday at 6:00 PM PST.

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.

[tazzman]

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.

Where? i dont see it on the forum??

just a bad idea GREE. we see it as it is---just a way for you to make more money.

I actually think GREE is run by geniuses. Look at the money that they will make on this. From a business standpoint, it's a great choice for them

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..

apples gives refunds?

I didn't know that. Sounds like a good avenue for iOS players to hit. iirc Apple penalises errant publishers as well. A nice smackdown.

Anyone with similar experience on this for droids?

[Legen...dary]

apples gives refunds?

HAhahahahahhahahaahahaaa! What would we do without you, Odorus?

[Mithrandir32123]

...and yet people will stay and people will pay.

[TG3d]

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!

[moku]

Please tell me it's a joke.

The joke's on us...
