Mm. A extremely bad take by OP in my eyes. Way too individualistic of a basing on gold needs by their account alone. Sample pools are needed, can't take it all from one source. No matter if they're a CC or not.
So because you don't have enough gold it means it would have been a horrible idea for Kabam to make the offer?
If that is what you took away from the post, good samaritan, I am afraid I cannot help you. On your way.
I understand the motivation behind your post but the crux of your position is that because it would take up a lot of gold (in an environment where gold is scarce for players like yourself) it's a bad idea to even *offer* the deal. There are people with hundreds of millions of gold. And some with 10 or 20M gold. The point is there are plenty of players of all sorts that have excess gold and you're saying they shouldn't even be allowed to make a decision on how to use it themselves.
That's nice! Offers can't be made for the minority that would severely impact and hurt the majority! Not how it works!
How is making an offer that is 100% optional to choose to purchase severely impacting/hurting anyone? When they make a unit deal for 5,000 units does it hurt the majority of the players because they don't have 5,000 units lying around?
It's called FOMO and "Players have no ability to control themselves sometimes so game design has to do it for them".
Yes, players should be allowed to make bad decisions. But SOMETIMES, game design needs to do that for them.
This got to be the dumbest thing I've seen on the Forums, in that sense i think the game design should stop unit offers also since players cant help themselves while they're at it why not stop Cav Crystal offers too since players going to waste their valuable units on Cav crystal for a 3% change of a 6 star, i really hope kabam don't look at these ideas and think the CCP are speaking for the community because this is nonsense.
I’ve been reading this post since the beginning, and since it’s still up and crawling, I’ll join in. This take was a hot one, and while I see your points, I 100% disagree and feel get a tone of superiority from your responses to people. While Kabam has done things to help people manage resources or progress (I.e. removing the sell champ choice), there comes a fine line when it comes to managing their choices and how they spend resources.
Your stance that gold is hard to come by so players shouldn’t have the option to spend it on gold offers as to not stifle progression is dumb. Why should unit offers be there then? Units are hard to come but and we could use those resources elsewhere?
While I get your point, it isn’t speaking for the community and honestly comes off as you know what’s right, know what’s best for people and that your situation is the same for everyone
