    Given the outrage this caused and how many customers have asked this question, and the fact that a number of co-ops have indicated they are disinclined to play the challenge if it is another 'buy your challenge cup here' fest, GG really should be responding to this one, although I suspect someone, somewhere is sitting with a calculator trying to work out whether the people buying reputation points nets them more gold than the hostility towards it loses them players/gold purchases, which is how the decision will ultimately be made, after all it is a business. I would say this though. The game exists in part because the non-gold players bring value to the game for gold players. Lose enough of them because the game gets too out of balance and everybody loses.

    Looking at former threads on this topic at the time of the famous Hot Deal, it was clearly stated that this deal would come back for next challenge. Whether in the same form or another one was to be determined. I, for one, will not play this next challenge simply because of this. Too bad, as this challenge was one of the most fun part of the game.

    what the developers forget is that people buy gold that they will use
    if they buy the gold at moments there is the rep point box they will buy not gold on another deal.
    so if this deal is a succes it means another deal will get less buyers

    is it worth to disguest then so many players to give the reputation box again?

    think twice ggs

    but stil waiting on a response from the developers
    also our playing in the challenge will depend on it

    I'm afraid the lack of response is an answer; if the deal wasn't coming back, I think they'd say so. My guess is the deal will be back, and some co-ops will buy their way to the top. And I won't be taking part in the challenge if it's going to be for sale to the people with the most gold in their pockets. I agree with Gen - the co-op challenge was one of the most fun parts of the game. Selling RPs sucked all the fun out of it for me.

    Or maybe the coop mission challenge is not coming back at all, which could be the best solution given they can't offer a fair, clean event


  • edited 13.02.2015
    We will not get an answer before the next challenge. They would never say it before it starts; that would be a bad business decision as too many people/coops would simply not participate. They will probably wait for people to work at this for a few days, and, as they did on last challenge, out the blue, right in the middle of it, "SMACK", they will hit them with something similar.

    In Latten's words on Jan. 22 regarding bringing back the Hot Deal for further challenges: "We already passed on that this would not be a great idea, and there will be talk about alternative ideas. However, I can not say when this will happen, or if the Deal will come back as is or not".

    I will definitely look at the alternative from the sideline.

    Hey paultje1975,

    as with all other events and offers, we cannot really answer that question, as both types of events are supposed to come as surprises.

    All we can say for now is that, after all your feedback, possible changes to this offer were taken into consideration.

    If or when they actually make it to the game is yet unknown, though.

    Regards,
    Steffi

    i understand that there must be an surprise factor in some things

    BUT this box is a to much influence in the hapines of playing the game and i think you should take your costumers serious and explain how this will be done in future

    but i think you also know that if the box appears again it will be the end of a succes item of the game. Much players liked the championship up to the point the box appeared. This is the moment the game could show us what customer satisfaction means to the developers

    and there is our answere
    the fact that the topic was never getting an answer from our mods already made it clear they would do it again

    wel the forum is already full of disguest about this
    But GGs wil not listen too us cause they think they earn from this

    wel i can tell them this. people buy gold what they use if they buy now gold with this deal they not buy gold on another deal. So in the end the deal will not make profit for GGS.
    in fact more and more people are disgusted with the game and stop playing. the next time again less people wil play for the missions cause why bother if you can buy the rep points. And playing missions and use gold is the real money GGS earns but they dont seem to understand it.

    this deal looses money for GGS instead they earn money. To bad GGS cant see this.

    personally i would be really ashamed if i was a moderator of this game

    I agree Paultje! But I do think they must've earned from this deal, otherwise they probably wóuld have listened.

    I am very glad to see that even big golders like you are outraged with this deal. It STINKS!

    they think they earned from it but they only have a short time thinking. Now they get buyers but on other deals they wel get less buyers. In the end the only real effect is people disgusted and stop playing.

    NOBODY (not free players and not small gold buyers and not big gold buyers) can be happy with this deal if players stop playing. the championship was a nice thing but is really spoiled through this. In time it will effect people participation n the championship and then the real loose will take place.

    its really bad entrepreneurship this

    I thought it had been said that it will run. I know GGS are money mad, but there is a limit to the buyers and this deal was to buy gold. unless the players have spent it on the boosting of the challenge they should still have it, or spent it on building NOW instead of next month. But we are getting a lot of the deals offering seaweed and the naughty nice items. As someone has said being silent is a sure sign that they know what is happening. I dont think i'll be doing the next co-op challenge, love doing it but not when someone can buy more points than we struggle to "earn". All the players doing the challenge and the amount of SOLO's we all had, yet the people i chat to in a mission we all click at same time, yet end up on solo's with the same crop ! Me thinks something smells and it aint the manure.
    lets see if we get an answere before the next challange. Or will the reputation of ggs will further break

    IF we get an answer it will have so many if's and buts, and twists and turns, up and downs, in the end you'll wish you never asked. And the final word will be it was all done for our benefit ! cough cough, bull sh** cough cough

    What kind of messed up idea of a "surprise" has GGS given us with the rep point hot deal? Oh sorry to all players that have wasted days playing missions, everyone can cheat now and buy their trophy of solidarity. Its clear by the vague answers that the Hot deal will in fact return and that gold sales is once again more important to GGS than customer satisfaction. My group will continue to boycott this deal even if it costs us 1st place.....we believe in playing fair.

    looks like ggs has made their decision and are going to continue with this deal, the only way to stop them is a united front by all the players not to buy during the deal, but of course that won't happen as people want short cuts. I am disgusted with the co ops that partake in this ggs greed and they enable it and cheat their way to the top positions rather than playing fairly.

    I love how everything always needs to be either black and white and there don't seem to be any greyscales in between. It's not always "now or never", sometimes it's more of a "soon, give us time". ;)

    Read all statements regarding this deal again - we have stated multiple times that we will try to find a compromise that works for both sides and will mention news on this Hot Deal in an official announcement.

    There has been quite some progress yet, it's only a matter of time for these news to appear. And then the whole evaluation process will start over again, so we can see if expectations have been met.
