We gotta see. IMO it will be either a non-fair conclusion either way, since the fair one would cost PB too much revenue.
Either way, their revenue is going to drop in the next days.
Next steps was the maintenance to stop this deal appearing again. I hope at least.
I donât think itâs legal, and in that case If nothing happens, it should be very very easy to get every cent spended back
No, ânext stepsâ was posted after the server update at noon. Also, it was only limited to stop appearing for new players aka players who hadnât seen the deal yet. Itâs still buyable for the ones who had it initially. And theyâre buying them.
Pretty sure they can do what they want and call it A/B testing. Theyâve surely got the coverage in their TOS.
Well if nothing happens, weâll gonna find out
We are pulling some data and have a meeting scheduled for later today. I really hope to have a reply for you by the end of the day, but it will depend on the outcome of the meeting.
Thanks for that reply. Iâll wait to see what happens this evening.
Pretty sure you can get a refund for these things
But thats not really the point now.
This issue has to be fixed first in a way that will satisfy most players which is hard enough. But if you make the mistake own it and fix it.
Not let it be for another 18 hours and see the damage then
They should just give better deals in general. Then it wouldnât be an issue. I actually thought this was the start of a new trend for server 21 when I saw it which was nice to see.
That would fine also that way o well they got it first that way its up to the player not perblue
As someone who received, and purchased, this deal the only fair way to fix this is roll it back and reset the game and everyones account to before they purchased or spent the stamina for this. It is going to cause so much imbalance, wipe out months, if not a year+ of people grinding and efficiently using resources outside of the largest spenders on the server.
Yes, the offers have been horrible on S22 and others compared to older ones, but this was wayyyy too aggressive and diminishes the feeling of accomplishment when gearing up heroes. If not rolling back, everyone needs to be given the option to purchase. I will feel wrong using that stamina when my fellow guildmates didnt even receive that option. Even then, I would be unhappy using it.
I see only one real solution
- refund all buys of that deal
- full restore to state before last patching
- some normal compensation for all players, like 200 stamina packs?
I also bought that deal (who could resist?), but it is definitely killing the game
If the stand stays that way, thatâs the height of cheek.
There are no just two options
- Undo all of the storeâs purchases.
- Offer the purchase for 24 hours to everyone who has not yet bought it.
Everything else is distortion of competition and, quite simply, fraud. If neither of these two is resolved, the game is over. Negative press guaranteed.
Good luck @Polaris (PB) to solve the problem
Just in numbers
7687 stam x66 = 507342 stam, with x2 its More then 1 million stam for those who get the deal.
There is NO possible way to keep up with that, just not possible.
There is just 2 options.
- Give the deal to all who didnât get
Or
- Reset to before.
Everything else will kill the game and pb will lose alot of money by refunds and no income from that game
3 make it available to everyone
Well thatâs my point 1.
âŚ
I see. Others were asking for free compensation which wouldnât work. Making it available is different than giving it to everyone. My mistake for misreading
Yea not going to lie, my account was level 75 before I purchased the deal. I got the 10$ 7.6k stam pots dealâŚ
I used 2,187 of those during this triple TL xp event and am now currently 116. As much as Iâd love to skitter past that grind, those who didnât get either of these deals are going to so far behind in value. I definitely recommend a reset back to whatever point PB can. If they canât, they have to offer something of almost significant value to compensate. For those who didnât get these deals should get the following:
-Make the triple TL event until end of year
-give them a daily mail that contains: stam refresh rate item(4x), double drops backpack/coins/heroxp until end of year
-give a weekly mail that gives stam pots based on current level that scales
that´s what caused the severity of the âtoo good to be true dealâ
one-way trip to TL 140
so, no, either âthe deal spawns once for those not getting itâ tomorrow or just reroll back and refund those that bought it⌠otherwise face a backlash
