Thunderstruck Closing Early

Hey everyone,

I’m super frustrated about the "Thunderstruck" event. It was supposed to last for over a month, but after just two weeks, it locked and became unplayable. I usually wait until the last couple of days of an event to exchange players and claim rewards to make sure I’m getting the best value, but now I’m stuck with unused players and unclaimed rewards because it ended so suddenly.

Was anyone else affected by this? Did I miss some announcement about the early closure? It feels really unfair that it ended without warning.

Do you think EA will reopen the event or offer compensation? I’d love to hear your thoughts or if anyone has managed to get some clarity on this.

  • There was always a two week timer on the player claim … it was not closed early without warning, the timers were there from day one 

  • I have so much negative things to say about this. 

    I will go by one suggestion instead: Keep all the unclaimed rewards open during the entire season. 

    This is a game, not a lawyer appointment, people played for the rewards, everybody has other priorities in life, game is by far the least important thing to remember.

    At least keep unclaimed rewards open until to the end of the event.

  • pelicanos - the event has ended though - the screens are only open to allow players to track how they are going against the live milestones

    yinxie1963 - I actually like the idea, but if they had every event available for the whole season until everyone had been able to claim them, no matter when they started, most people would not have enough room on their device to claim them, and many would complain that they have dead (at least to them) events clogging up their menus.

    And at some point, the user has to take responsibility for checking the timers, reading the instructions and paying attention to the in-game notices ... it's not like this was done by stealth, there was plenty of warning and plenty of opportunity to claim the rewards before the event proper finished.
