Yes, but I broke my answer in two posts
You can disagree without being rude. I'm really not bothered by that.
What?
The comment was made comparing people playing the game to training dogs. I believe it was a reference to habits, but Human Beings are aware of their own decisions and are responsible for their actions.
You are correct. A 300 unit crystal has nothing to do with predatory behavior. (rolls eyes).
But you are kind of right in that it wasn't the original intent of the thread. But I do not think it is not constructive. We are talking about one of the most toxic things about this game that should be reworked.
Human beings are aware of their decisions, but are also very good at ignoring reason when taking bad ones.
The reality is that the crystal is pretty expensive considering the odds for me at least. I am sure there are some independently wealthy players who feel differently. At least now thanks to the good folks at Apple we can make that decision with all the facts.
In any case, when you're considering the overall cost of Resources, it's not unreasonable for a chance at a 5*. I respect that some feel it's overpriced. I don't agree that it's out of range.
Except when they are addicts, they have to work extra hard to avoid any kind of situation that could take them back to bad habits. Like a "not gambling" free to play game.
One in favor of this game mechanics... now more people are aware if they are prone to addictions. They probably weren't looking for that when they saw an ad for a game with his favorite characters.
Perhaps the game should come with a cool down for people that spend to much. At least in the unit store. It will not fix the issue, but it would look like they care about their customers.
I still think the crystals should be replaced with something else, not luck related. Only effort.
The 300 units crystal is amazing, even with it's low drop rate, it's much better than a 400 unit crystal, and sometimes more satisfying than a 2500 units crystal. And the reason it is more satisfying is that chance to have a new 5 star without waiting to collect 10k shards. Even better, while you are still collecting 10k shards, and get even more shards by duping those 4 stars. In a way, it's the natural evolution of all the other crystals. It makes sense, so I think the crystal is great. I just don't think this game should rely on crystals this way.
I would keep crystals but not random. Like a 100% chance of having a character in a specific tier.

You have to read the previous comment.
You're not risking something of value. Your money never returns. You're renting permission to use their digital property. We have no proprietary ownership of our Accounts. Since we've already been over this before, I think I'll be moving on. No matter how you look at it, it's technically not Gambling. People are free to look at it however they like. It's still not.
Nothing would prevent you from getting all 3 stars.A change like this would be nice, though.
Here is your definition of gambling:
noun
1.
the activity or practice of playing at a game of chance for money or other stakes.
2.
the act or practice of risking the loss of something important by taking a chance or acting recklessly:
3.
take risky action in the hope of a desired result.
I think MCOC and units falls into this? Don't you?
I did the math,and the value of Fgmcs should be around 9.68$
Wrong again. There are 2 contexts to consider when looking at the word “gambling”: the general definition of gambling (as someone defined above) and legal gambling law (what the government defines as gambling). MCOC in no way registers as a legal gambling app so we can rule that context out. When people say they want to “gamble” on crystals, they are simply saying they want to take a risky action in hopes of a desired result (pulling the 5* or 4*).
“Gambling” is a broad term and does not always refer to the legal definition of gambling law. It can be used in both ways but it’s quite obvious the context of which it is being used in this thread. This should be a very simple concept to grasp.
Sorry, game is over. People need to find a better use of their time than trying to get a reaction out of me. It's just sad at this point.
Can you imagine if was a drinking game, everyone would get alcohol poisoning lol
that ALOT of time he had to put into grinding everything he has done in the game spending
0$
another example would be someone like graphicsink
who is a complete whale, has every single featured champs,has around 5 6* champion pulls
has yet to complete act v, he didn't even do the Michael b Jordan and didn't even do uncollected modok event since that event also gave away a title. You can tell he doesn't grind also by looking at his duel/arena stats
gambling is gambling,
you pay the risk of spending extra 5,000 5* shards for a chance to win a featured 5* champion
for blade example briant grant tried like 7 times to get blade, for a "chance" to pull blade,
he paid those extra 5,000 5* for a chance for blade.
You don't go to a store and spend extra money for a chance at buying electronics,food etc right?
Say you have 5$ in change, You can go to a crane machine in the store for a chance at a stuff bear you can either spend Way less than 5$ or walk away spending 5$ and not get it? or go the store and just buy the stuff bear for 5$.
