2,500 crowns for $0.99

[cos_pi]

Yes, not 50k but 100k and also to those who bought those crowns in 0.99$. Extra crowns never hurt

In the absence of any fix, which seems to be where this is headed, maybe at a minimum the community should be informed about how many people took advantage of it?

How about you guys give us the number of people that added more than 50K in crowns during the glitch? If it’s only <50, maybe it’ll be easier for me to just move past this.

 

[cos_pi]

It will not be less than 50. I am guessing it will be of the order a few thousand. Just my guess though

 

[Mcnasty]

Depends on how good your alliance is. Out of the 10 I kept 10 are still playing strong.

 

[Festivus]

This is actually a good idea, I think. I doubt anyone would be opposed to it.

 

[Festivus]

Why 50K? That's almost certainly more than most people who did benefit from the error got. Only a very small number of people got 100k-200k. In my two alliances, no one got more than 70k from this, and most less than 10k. And the large majority (about 90%) didn't get anything at all.

As I've said several times, the actual impact of this is going to be MUCH less than some here are making it out to be.

And why should you be *given* anything? Pay for it like everyone else did.

For what purpose, other than to put your mind at ease?
The only effect this would have is for you, and all of us, to face more upgraded bases in a shorter period of time than we normally would.

As I said on the other post, put a random 6 hour sale of the same offer on IOS, and dont advertise it, same result, balance in the universe

 

[Manifesto]

Really? You think adding more chaos will balance anything?

 

[GailWho]

I LVE this idea! Please, please please, no more new content until you fix things!

 

[kosno]

as I commented on the previous post this has allready been done you just didn't notice as they didn't tell anyone

Ok ... I’m a IOS player but when I heard about a android offer I change my device and got 225K crowns with I already spend.If I will got more crowns on iOS ???? What about then ???

 

[Festivus]

I believe the original error for Android was 3 hours long. So you want 6 hours for iOS only? Um, OK. Seems fair. :/

This error is incredibly insulting to a very large portion of the player base imo. Easily worse than anything I have ever seen in this game before, and that says a lot. What others spent time and comparatively large sums of money on over the course of years to build up and acquire, was given away at pennies on the dollar to a limited, but very significant portion of the player base. I am a big spender, more than I'd like to admit, but I will never, ever ever, drop a penny on this game again if this is not fixed. Other fairly big spenders I communicate with also have one foot out the door. Beyond insulting those who have spent a decent amount over the years, those who actually like war should probably care about this. They put unbeatable megabases behind a very big paywall and that at least restricted them some, get ready for plenty more in your wars coming soon.

But anyway, all of the complaints have already been stated, I really came here to offer what I thought was a possible solution. Here are two viable options imo:

1) Refund all of the $0.99 purchases. Remove all of the crowns that have not yet been spent. Even though its been days since the error, unless you're buying resources which is incredibly inefficient, not too much damage has already been done. Give affected accounts a 10k crown bonus compensation.

2) Refund all of the $0.99 purchases. Rollback only the affected accounts, remove all of the crowns. Give every affected account a 20k crown compensation. This will give them 10x more free speeds than the loss of one week's progress, probably more than that.

I hope its fixed. Unfortunately, I dont think BHG has either the skill or will to do anything about it, but wanted to at least put another possible idea out there, I think it is terrible for both players and Nexon if it is not corrected.

 

[NickDW5]

I totally agree.. Spent several years and several 100 dollars (not all that proud of it but hey). It feels like this time spent and the money invested were not worth it at all..

I am afraid, they are just gonna let this one pass on like all other big mistakes.
But this certainly was the last dollar spent for me..

 

[Vixen]

well said!!!!!

 

[Uberalles]

1)No possible to refund money by exemple I close my bank account. 2) No rolleback I make walls in this time . Walls is very hard to upgrade.

 

[Kraitok]

As someone who took advantage of the fiasco, I'd still like to see all all of the crowns that haven't been used refunded. Rolling back progress would really piss me off considering the amount of raiding I've done, and doesn't seem particularly practical from a programming perspective anyways.

I bought 125k crowns and still have most of them fwiw.

When something similar happens in another industry, it makes for good arguments on each side:

NickDW5 , was your progress and effort not worth it 1 week ago? 2 weeks ago? a month ago?
Were you just wasting your time up until that point?
