So I'm sure you all noticed by now that collecting tickets has become more scarce. Only 3 fit in the box, and you can only gift every 12 hours now! This has my accrual rate probably cut into a quarter of what it was. When I wake up, pretty much everyone from Europe, Asia, etc. has already sent me a ticket, so there goes half of my friend list! Only getting 3 when I probably received a good 40-50 kinda feels cheap. The rest come in throughout the day, and I have been finding myself opening the game every 15 mins or so to collect, but I still think it's not enough. It's also annoying to have to do this in general. I think somewhere in between how it was and how it is now would be fair. Maybe a bigger box (10-15?) with the same 12 hour limit. Thoughts?
They will do anything to make more money,nothing's gonna happen.
Every 15 minutes is about what I do when work allows. It's enough to give me over 100 a day whe you have enough friends. It's irritating as heck, but they want the gameplay to become a habit.
I think the point behind this is to make people understand that golden tickets are precious. Before they nerfed them people were getting ludicrous amounts of them. Now I imagine people start less showdowns and choose where to burn tickets more carefully. But as xitooner said, you can still get tons of tickets every day of you're willing to check your phone often enough.
But why do they want people to think golden tickets are precious/rarer? Because people will be incentivized to buy them. We can't forget that everything they do, in terms of monetization, is meant to incentivize people to spend as much money as they can. It is the way of "Free to Play".Originally Posted by timohthey Go to original post
Well, yes, there's that too. RedLynx is a business, and to sustain that business they need to be making money. The more the better. They'd be a pretty rubbish business if they weren't moulding the game to maximise profit.
