CG Cyanides raised an interesting data point about the number of players who installed the game in 2015 and had missed less than 14 days since that point and his surprise at the number.As a QOL I would like to suggest an annual leave component in GoH that would provide the player (and their current guild) their average of resources.....but at the cost of not being able to actively log into the game and play (ie not double dipping.This would allow players to actually take a holiday but not feel pressured to login for arena / dailies / raids / GAC / TW / farming etc etc etc so as to not miss out those resources in comparison to their peers because these would be provided in a bundle at the end of the nominated holiday period.1-2 weeks a year would make for much happier partners and families and probably give an improved outcome for player retention in the long run

I like this idea. And sadly, I admit that I am positive I am one of the players that fits CG Cyanide's data point.

A lot of people reinstalled the game yesterday because of the android login issue

This doesnt directly fall into the OP suggestion, but one way they could help this would be to raise the player max for ticket contributions. It has come up before, but if the limit was 650, and the guild max was still 30k, it would allow the guild to help cover players that need to be less active for any reason. At least on the daily sense this could help.

Or develop the mentality of "It's a game and is not more important than time away, time spent with family, etc. If I fall behind..WHO CARES!!!". The thought process of "I have to play, I have to win, I must, I must" just shows a deeper and more harmful mindset. Best thing I ever did was play other games and set limits. 8pm off the computer and enjoy the holiday.

I like that idea. And sadly I also fit into the profile. I think I might miss a day or 2 when I was on a cruise trip and I refuse to pay for the expensive cruise wifi package. I still managed daily mostly at port call. Maybe this can be done as a special achievement reward package for any player who has had a long consecutive login followed by a brief 1 week break.

They should reward those 2015 players who haven't missed a day with a vault of crystals for their loyalty

This is a good idea. I would suggest taking it a step further and, like what AvatarofCynicism said, remove the individual cap altogether. That way, those of us that spend crystals on refreshes can make up the difference. Keep the 30k total guild cap though.

I honestly don't think there needs to be a player max on tickets, just a daily guild cap. Is there some weird economy reason that a guild of 30 shouldn't be able to generate 30K tickets a day and do whatever raids they want? They'll miss out on TB rewards so it should balance out.

Other games do it. Marvel Future Fight does a returning player login reward so that if you miss a bunch of time and come back, you get a bonus each day for a week or two. It serves to get you interested in the game again, get a daily incentive to log in, and to catch up a bit.

...maybe they just care about their community a bit more.

Playing this game is what I use my sick days for.

Since March of 2016 when I started I have never missed a day. Multiple surgeries and two car wrecks. This game is a huge part of my life. Hell I only missed my 600 once and only missed it by 40 points because I couldn’t log back in because I worked 18 hours and couldn’t get away. One thing for sure is this game no matter how hard you play if you miss a day it’s like missing a week at least in my level. Missing a day scares the hell out of me because I don’t want to fall behind. Lol addiction sucks hahaha. I love Kynos idea though. I spend 3 refreshes a day on each energy and it’s wasted after my 600 so I wish it counted so it could help out my other guild mates when they are unable to get on. Keep the 30k mark but allow our extra refreshes count towards the 30k :)

Like u said, if u were recovering from an injury or surgury it's a perfect time killer since you can play from the convenience from ur phone.

This is why I got the game in 2015, paralyzed and stuck in bed for a year allowed me to master the QGJ, sid, and phasma metas.

Been addicted to this game ever since... but guess it's better than being stuck on painkillers.

Zero chance CG considers this for even a second. Some of the players who take that break will not come back. Zero. Chance.

Travesty is right.

Mobile games are about daily log in. The second a player stops for even a short time they may break an addiction.

Speaking from expeirence recently, I was a daily Marvel Strike Force player. Had to take a gaming break for a few days & suddenly noticed that I didn't enjoy the game half as much as I thought & mostly it was habit and a fear of falling behind.

The second I broke away from it I quit and never went back.

Sad, but very true. I did the same for Marvel and Star Trek Timelines. Seemed like I absolutely had to login and then when I didn't for a little while, I can't even remember why I felt that way. I play neither game anymore as I chose this one over them to stick to one game. Not sure I made the right call.
