Get this B.S off my screen

I’m not even going to go into my thoughts on this new “feature”, I’ve don’t that in the official thread. But having this pop up as the first thing in the crystals tab is disgusting greedy work.

Please move this somewhere else so I never have to look at it again.

They are advertising a new crystal type: it is entirely reasonable for them to give it prominent placement in the crystal vault. There's nothing "greedy" about doing that, and frankly for a game that has zero advertisements for outside products and services calling this "greedy" is just ridiculous.

If you don't ever want to see that again, I can only think of one remedy for that particular problem, and it is not going to be due to a modification of the game client.

Totally agree. I dislike a lot what they've done with ui overall, this one is another brick to make the interface annoying. This things make me want to stop opening crystal tab, events list. I already have missed half of side quests since they started it and I could see myself quitting the game just because of how bloated the navigation gets. They already have all these pop ups when you open the game, and now that

Fun fact: you can chew your fingers like a carrot, but your brain immediately prevents you to do it.

I heard if you buy 100 crystals it goes away.

No wonder the crystals had visual bug and disappeared
They recoded the crystal section to add this advertisement and inadvertently removed the other crystals in the other tabs

Everything is so small and out of proportion now. I need a magnifying glass to see!

Wish it was on the far right tab where it’s not as inconvenient seeing as most players dont have 300 units to blow on a 5* crystal

So I've seen this Luke offer probably 100 times by now, and have gone from "this bad offer is annoying" to "why the hell not, should I just buy it?"
That's how advertising works on a subconscious level. Another W for the marketing geniuses at Kabam.

No. That’s called being an uninformed consumer and gullible.

That means you're easy to manipulate

GinjabredMonsta

Yeah, I saw this today and thought my game glitched. Not a fan of this change

Right, I get that, and I would never buy it myself.
I'm just saying, this is how advertising works sometimes.
It's not always meant to be compelling in a rational sense.
Sometimes the entire point is just to beat you over the head with it.
A basic familiarity with marketing (even a 101 college course) should have made my point obvious to anyone.

No, that's how advertising works.
At its base level, it's designed to appeal to SOMEBODY. The Crystals entered my thought process as well, but I'm not that set on Cage. Just because it's enticing to people doesn't mean they're mindless drones.

peixemacaco

Whats the point of this thread as this change will be forever as Kabam wants it.

And if someone buy, next month this menu will be back

startropics

this is a game-changer for crystals so it's reasonable they have it front and center, especially since they're testing it out.

i'm not spending on it either but it's fair game that they do this.

Shajahan

The first time this thing pop up I accidentally bought a crystal
My hand keeps on going to that 300 units button
Good design kabam from draining my untis
I wish it ask for conformation before I waste my units on it

Zacharias10719

People are so resistant to any changes to the UI in this game it's hilarious in all honesty. Everytime kabam makes a change there's threads with people losing their 💩 over it. Threatening to quit over a menu change? Come on now.

Are you this melodramatic in real life? Do you demand to see the manager if your local store rearranges the aisles?

As with all changes you'll be used to it in a couple of weeks anyway

Just calm down dear.

If a player wanted to know what was in the other tab in the crystal vault they would click on that tab it’s common sense really, they haven’t added a tab to the crystal vault in years it would immediately catch eyes. You don't have to be thrown onto this screen where you can easily buy crystals by accident,
And are you suggesting they should stop playing the game vs Kabam just moving the tab over 1

Eakomo

This new tab feels like they aren't selling the pity system feature in a crystal but THIS specific crystal as a pity system.

We know you don't like valiant crystals now after opening do many but how about a new upgrade valiant crystal.

I'd rather see the feature on daily or even 4 hour crystals than this

Sorry I don't see a down side to this crystal. It's the same price as any other valiant crystal with a guarantee for people that really want the champ. COW Whale would've loved these crystals lol

Most whales have every champ already. They don't need this crystal

Feeney234

300 bucks and you get a guaranteed 7* Luke Cage!

Nahhhh im good 😆

I would never buy this BUT…the way I read the description, it sounds like you are guaranteed 7* after so many crystals. It does not specifically say it will be the featured champ. I think

ShaggyM

I wonder if it would be the same reaction if it was Onslaught in the crystal instead of Luke Cage?

Skunkcabbage

If we got 5 units every time we had to see the advert I'd have a different reaction. As it stands it's an extra click every single time for no reward.

They recently overhauled the UI and it saved a click, which was huge to me (click on the units icon on the top right and you're immediately in all the stores - you used to have to click drop down -> Store before that). So they've undone the benefit of that change with this forced ad.
