    What will be the plan for people who already opened all their crystals expecting to get the full 30% boost?

    @Kabam Miike Your changes in Gold Crystal will make even Further Bigger problem for you guys and community

    Regarding compensation who already opened.
    Instead of Change Pls compensate Gold to Everyone.
    Otherwise Refund your Gold and Give my 4k Gold Crystals Back.

    Update: I spoke to the team about the confusion here and the expectations. We get the confusion and are going to make changes to just do the 30% update across all good pools instead of trying to make work.

    More details soon!

    Thanks for finding out more info Miike, look forward to hearing the resolution.

    Not at all, and this is why I need somebody who understands this better to explain. This is not about a chance to get 30%, it's about everything averaging out to 30% on average when opening your crystals. This is taking things like Drop Rates and amount into account. There is no world in which a temporary 20% boost is better here.

    If you are “averaging” then this is still a form of “chance”. Plus if this increase was to stop people from hoarding gold crystals to lighten the load on the servers, this won’t help because I guarantee there are people that believe in popping more crystals at once in order to get a better “average or chance”. You are making the servers calculate more trying to average that 30%, when you could lighten the load and just adjust the minimum by 30%

    Was this a mastermind plan to make us use all our hoarded crystals? Bc was it supposedly clogging up the servers?

    So now that this is going to be implemented correctly, Please provide compensation to the people who popped crystals based on your "its live now" post @Kabam Miike

    Make this right.

    Yeah, definitely opened a good bit (for me at least) of gold and arena crystals thinking this was live and actually as promised.

    Seems like whatever was implemented at first was far from the golden solution ;)

    It looks like they updated the UC gold crystal from 15K to 19.5K, a 30% increase.
  • WayWorn2525WayWorn2525 Member Posts: 945 ★★★
    Just did, I got from 1 UC gold crystal 19.5K up from 15K. So they did make the changes for UC gold crystal, don't know about the other gold types.

    The rates look to have changed to the flat 30% increase for me too.

    Do we have any update on whether this applies to battlechips or is it a different story for them?
  • VinodCherryVinodCherry Member Posts: 62
    @Kabam Miike Mate you mentioned it went live at 10. So went tour words and opened all crystals.

    When I opened the golden crystals the minimum was showing as 2500 but now it’s reflecting as 3200 :(

    Values have been increased permanently which makes total sense since the boost is permanent

    I haven't bought it to check if it is changed once you buy it because it seems a bad price but the basic gold crystal in the glory store still has the description of the old minimum amount on the purchase screen.

    Imagine getting a coupon from a store that is a 30% off coupon. So something that is $10, would be $7 instead. But instead this coupon isn't actually 30% but instead sometimes it's 50% off and other times it's 10% off.

    You as the customer would be pissed about false advertising. Same thing just happened here. Increasing higher jackpot amount frequency is not the same thing as increasing gold by 30%. You need thousands of data points for that jackpot increase to mean anything.

    To us, this seems like another over promise and under deliver. Like seriously, all you had to do was go in and put +30% on all gold. Can't be that hard.

    I got 19.5k on my uncollected crystals so I think they’re alright to open now

    I Don't think it is possible to compensate
    This is the start of more bigger problem now
    How they gonna know who opened how many crystals

    Even if they send fixed Compansation to everyone this is no solution
    Some people Opened 100 crystals while some opened 1000 of them

    I myself opened more than 4k
    Looks like those who opened crystals are just gonna get ****.
    Why should they even compensate? It's written "wait after the ingame message"
    There isn't any ingame message yet, so everybody who opened crystals just opened crystals. That's it.

    Which in-game message you referring buddy ?
  • Ace2319Ace2319 Member Posts: 619 ★★★

    Okay i yield. We did a bunch of openings and while we averaged at 23.6k we compared to screenshots found from 20% gold boost where it was averaged at 21.9k so yeah i guess its not as bad as miike explains it

    I averaged out to 24.7 a crystal and mine said a minimum of 19.5k a crystal
  • odogg9941odogg9941 Member Posts: 418 ★★★

    Alright, everybody! We've just pushed the change live, so the change to Gold amounts should be live within the next hour.

    This change will revert the drop rates of the crystals to the old ones, and increase all gold payouts by 30% instead of the current system.

    This should not change how much Gold players got from opening many crystals, but we are going to verify to make sure that is correct. We will look at the gold payouts before and after the change early next week, and determine if there is any action required.

    Thank you all for pointing this out, and we apologize for this situation and confusion.

    To the old ones?
