2,500 crowns for $0.99

[BeerMan]

Where was the outrage when tons of players were exploiting the hell out of the SH bug to get unlimited Elephant Archers? Nexon just woke up to a much fatter bank account...

 

[JuDomines]

You sir are... incorrect. Regular and heavy spenders both have purchased 100-500K . This is called doing a stock up. Some will have enough crowns to cover the next 2-3 ages to come.

 

[Festivus]

No, actually Nexon is losing a ton of $$ on this. Those crowns were almost given away for free, and those are future crowns which will not be bought at regular price now.

Remember the bygone days of December 2017 when some players got hundreds of high end troop cards due to the gift workshop glitch? Remember Nexon's response? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

Let's all just try to make the best of the elephant stables that are soon to arrive, eh?

How will a player who started two years late to the game compete?
How will players / alliances who don't buy elephant archers compete with those who do?

This is a windfall for a few users, but those who didn't get a chance to buy weren't set back in any way.

Guess what, this elephant stable sale will likely cost crowns and not dollars (if not this one, this will be another future one). I am sure you get where all players who did not take advantage of this pricing error are coming from, at this point. And if you are still not convinced it's a terrible customer experience overall... well I let down

I don't know in which virtual world you live but no store (except if it is in their conditions) are obliged to match the price of any other.
In fact the more closer comparison in that case is one store has a discount for a short period some friends could benefit from it but you arrive after the discount period, too late.
By the way, for flight ticket it is the norm that the price you paid for your ticket is not the same as your neighbor.
In a competitive market there are always different prices.

And for android, sorry but nothing blocked you to have an android account and to have dominations transferred to this account. You even keep both accounts.

 

[BeerMan]

And the hundreds of alliances who had unlimited elephant archers for free thanks to the SH bug? That cost nexon a ton of money. At least they got revenue out of this.

 

[Bootney Lee Fonsworth]

Gotta say I haven't seen the forums a-buzzin' like this since The Great Spinning Gold Circle Harvest of 2016, or the stronghold introduction, or the tactics nerf, or the Night Witches, or the silo, or........

Just saying it's a pretty resilient fanbase and my guess is that this latest outrage du jour too shall pass. If it's any solace I bet things are under investigation.

Yeah, is it too late now to say sorry?

We are investigating what had happened.

It's never our intention to allow part of our players to have an advantage. When we know more, I'm happy to share more information and what steps are being taken!

You're right, they are not obliged, but they do it to keep customers happy. Sometimes I don't even have to go to store, I get price difference credited to my credit card, without even asking.

If they don't fix this then it's time to finally give this game up and request refunds for all purchases from apple and retire.. Its not fair to all the players who took ages and spent real crowns to finish Saladin etc to have them nerf Saladin and give players on a certain device a MASSIVE advantage. Some bought Hundreds of thousands of crowns. Good luck competing with that. I'm not

 

[Loonies]

Yes, I know several top war alliances that have made bank on this error. Realistically nothing can be done to reverse the sale without alienating the paying player segment. I would suggest some event(s) aimed to help those left behind, like more pre-CWA upgrade discounts, earning a building to generate additional citizens, etc.

 

[KingDarius]

A 24hr rollback and refund all the 99c purchases is the only fair option.

 

[Swięty]

If you give us an elephant stable, I will close my eyes.

 

[Htmk5]

Where I live, it's against the law, they will get sued.

 

[SiuYin]

100K crown is much more than an elephant stable

 

[MSS-Gaming]

Rollback 24hrs of progress for everyone and refund all $0.99 purchases in the past 24hrs.

 

[KingDarius]

No one is going to sue over 99c Purchases that were refunded. Good luck finding a lawyer for that one. Lmfao
