Syndicate War Extended

[GucciMane]

Time and money are fungible. Deactivating refills just gives a boost to those who happen to have free time during those 6 hours. Not only is that inherently unjust, it targets those least likely to be bigger spending customers as those worthy of benefits, and therefore is certainly not in Gree's interest.

It's not in Gree's interest because they would not be profiting in the last 6.0 hours.

And how is 6 extra hours any more just? Got an answer for me? Got a bright idea that would be any better of a solution to fix this mess save for ending the event as originally scheduled?


No zeemer, time and money aren't at all - especially to an event with a *prescheduled* set time for said time and money to be spent. I think you just wanted to use that word. It is a nice word, but there is no fungibility of time and money because everyone's free time is inherently unequal. Did you ever stop to think your argument works the other way around too, that an extension of the war is going to give a boost to player with free time (or no jobs) in the first place?

Once 6:00:00 hours left hit, turn OFF the Refill Health button.




Problem solved.



Or just give us the players who requested this extension in the first place.

this is actually a very good idea....

extending an LTQ gives us more opportunity to finish the event. Massively different to extending a war. You stuffed up so bad and you really should be refunding everyone half the gold they have spent on this event. Many people have limited gold and they have blown it with wrong information so wont get the prizes they had planned for. ton of tickets asking you to extend the war??? I cant believe that. Im sorry but my bull****omiter is going ballistic right now!

The ineptitude and inability to directly ask for feedback from the forum community always astounds me. Then shaking your fist after the most rabid fan base overwhelmingly rejects your terrible ideas...just plain sad.

Very well said ...

[Guisseppe17]

Can I just say..."it's too late to change back as others have already adjusted to the new schedule".
YOU ADDED SIX HOURS TO THE EVENT IN THE LAST DAY. How's that for a major effing change?! You weren't worried about messing up everyone's schedules then, were you? I thought not. So don't give us that bull**** of "we don't wanna inconvenience others", the only inconvenience was your dumbass extension. And I also guarantee not one damn person asked for this. Because guess what? Not one person in this thread has been happy. And don't tell me all the people who wanted it just aren't on the forums....

Count me in with the dissatisfied customers gree.

[Dutchie]

If you shorten this event to 48 hours, I reckon you would actually generate more revenue than a 3 day event... Think about it! Happy customers tend to spend more!

[GucciMane]

If some players requested a change which requires other players to SPEND MORE OF THEIR HARD EARNED MONEY,


We deserve to know who these players are.

If you aren't going to make any changes to fix this problem (and you won't), at least give us the names of the players who requested this.


Gree doesn't take this seriously, thinks this is "just a game" when real CASH is involved.


Yeah, Apple isn't going to refund people's gold. But they sure as hell will take note when they see hundreds of Refund requests from ONE game in the SAME. day.


This is now bigger than the war. You might not have your game in the App Store anymore if this continues, and this is not a threat this is a warning plea from someone who still likes this game.

WOW!!! This is another reason that I have stopped buying gold. What's the point when this game allows this.

[ablankone]

One question no one seems to have asked is: Why 6 hours?

Could it be that this amount of time still fits in with the usual waking hours of the States?

Spare a thought for the Asian/Australasian demographic Gree... we already have to put up with events starting at 2.00 in the morning and (in the case of these battles)... finishing at 3.00 in the morn...

You don't seem to give a toss about us on this side of the pond.

And, yes, 48 hour battles vs 72 hours is worth polling. In fact throw in a 24 hour polling option whilst ur at it and see what results you get.

[Drew's Crew]

HAHAHAHA. I'm guessing something like this http://youtu.be/sor9GzivGbk happened when GREE decided to extend the battles.

[Yancool]

It seems someone in the budget department made several requests to extend the battle, as there's no one in our synd, and apparently no one here who wants an extension. Or was it maybe the owner who yelled so high that it was impossible not to extend the battle, many questions, and many assumptions, but this decision is one that will give more players a reason to quit the game. No matter the problems during the first day, they have evened out, our people got their points, and to look at the chart, most other syndicates are where they normally are. But lets have a vault each and every player, then we will happily play your games. Honestly a mental decision this is, and this goes for the people who decided this. And why not extend it 24 hours.... Well as stupid is as stupid does, and we the players have ourselves to blame as we still play the game.

Gree, can you also please lock the leader board?

No. When an unnecessary and easily removable element creates a problem I don't seek a solution that retains said element.
