Solo deals feedback

[Theeproguy]

@Polaris

“I understand the change to solo deals is rough for some people. If you are a more hardcore player, you were able to watch and wait to for the rare opportunities to stack your deals, but that wasn’t the case for many players.”

But why can’t PB do both? Have solo and stackable? Is this PB way of getting more money? Merging multiple servers. So the TOP PLAYERS can compete AND SPEND MONEY? Regular FTP wait for a something stackable. Is that ever coming back? If not. Then this is a norm that PB wants? Correct? That is what it really seems like. Let the top players buy what they can so they can compete while it weeds out the rest of us? I went from top 300 to 3000. No way I can ever get back there without spending money.

That’s what it feels like Polaris.

In Isolation some deals are similar in value, sure, but as a huge spender I still don’t like them.
The biggest reason is that deals now lack 2 slots for items (taken you by the diamonds and VIP rings).

Also, as you seem to like the new deals (unlike most), genuinely- what did you think of these other draw backs:

• No deal Stacking (ofc)
• No Initial Purchase “Extra diamonds” - IAP bonus
• Reduced overall diamond per $ - if I want to buy an offer twice I’m forced to buy 2 x 4.99 deal instead of 1 x 9.99 deal, netting me slightly less diamonds per purchase.
• 2 “Offer Slots” are taken up by the Diamonds and VIP rings so many of the deals that offered up to 6 different items will no longer happen, 4 item type deals seem to be the limit.
• No offer to cover Monthly deal values. i.e. Monthly deals (for daily diamonds) will now have to be purchased with NO rewards

Edit: I’m also only getting 4 deals in 24hrs so the variety and options I have are equal with that I had before, if there was 10 deals running concurrently- then we could say I have an increase in choice. Atm instead of a deal every 6 hrs they just replace deals at the same time as they did netting us 4 deals a day.

Uh… that’s not how opinions work, my friend. You don’t have to express an opposite opinion just to express a current one. Nobody is a hypocrite for not celebrating the (increasingly rare) good things Per Blue is doing lately.

Thank you for your condescension and opinion, though! Have a lovely day.

Simply put. I wont be buying anything until stackable deals return. If a company can’t respect the value of my dollar then they definitely don’t deserve having it. When selling virtual currency you’d think to give customers value for their purchases. Not take it away. All of this game is made up! We support it! If a company cant respect customers then they don’t deserve them.

Except you are not being productive at all and are just brushing off the criticism you are rightfully being given. Solo deals were a bad idea and most people don’t like them. Just accept it already.

Then I noticed the title changed Server 14-20

Just FYI, I’ve been updating the title as they’ve announced more servers on the solo deals. Right now it’s 1-20; 21 and 22 are still unaffected, lucky ducks. When that happens (because why wouldn’t it, at this rate) I guess the title will just be Solo deals feedback.

Servers 21 & 22 have had solo deals since they launched in June.

Frosty P must be an executive for the DH team at PerBlue…

The biggest reason is that deals now lack 2 slots for items

There is not a max of 6 slots. We have been using that many because that’s what fits in the display screen, but we do have plans to offer more things in deals in the future.

Finally progress in upgrading these deals.

[Champion_David]

personally, here is my perspective:

Sure, Perblue doesn’t listen to all the feedback they get from the users, but to say that majority of the player base doesn’t like these deals is…probably false. Obviously if most of the player base didn’t like it, then perblue would recognize the decline in purchases and change it. Since they haven’t, it means one of two things:

A. They are still making money of the solo deals, perhaps more than before.

B. They think that this will blow over and that they will eventually make a ton more money than they were before.

I have not had a problem with the solo deals I think I have brought 2 of the deals so far. 9.99 deals interest me the most don’t spend over that

Yeah just logged in and there is a deal with 8 items

Just saw a deal with 8 items slots! The technology is here!!
At least that’s one of my biggest issues with the new solo deals solved.

[Benny_Boi_VIII]

My main question is why was any of this needed? Nobody asked for a change.

[Evandalf]

@Polaris - this is literally built into the game, and I couldn’t think of something more apropos.

[Kymah]

Think about this - how frustrating would it be for you as a player to open the deals everyday and see nothing that you need?

This quote is pretty funny. It almost makes you think that you care about the players.

However, your team has no issues with making people wait 24 hrs for deals you pay with diamonds. Think about this: how frustrating would it be as a player to open the diamonds deal everyday and seeing nothing you need?

So why is there a double standard when it comes to deals you purchase with real money and deals you purchase with diamonds? Could it be that Perblue only cares about player’s interest when it involves how much money they can get from them?

Like now?

Well, it helps keep money away from you. So it’s really good.
As thinking, I love solo deals, now I can keep those $30-50 per month to me.
Maybe soon I will also have 2-3 more free hours

[Kymah]

I love my extra free time now

And I get to spend my money on switch games now.

I just miss you guys

[Musketeer-Endgame]

I just miss you guys

The forum is for free (yet!).

Finally an update which gives to players, not PB. Loves

Now just give more old heroes, reduce values of deals, reduce daily diamonds, smaller rewards from arena/coli and contests. Let’s kill the game, we are on good way.

[Defender_Zurg_VIII]

I do agree with that

[Kymah]

I think it’s really funny that Perblue promotes these “feedback” topics, and then gets defensive and upset when it isn’t the feedback they want.

It’s like when Bill Cosby said “meme me”

[Pipsqueak]

To be fair, it’s not frustrating at all opening the game everyday and seeing nothing that I want to buy. It’s great!
