Here’s the thing...
I saw this in game and immediately knew that this thread would exist. Did you?
If you’ve been around here for any length of time, you should be nodding “yes”. I’m sure the devs did too - I refuse to believe that they are so naive to their player base that they didn’t.
It’s ticked off some portion of the player base by doing it this way. And it’s totally unnecessary.
Either they wanted us to be able to take advantage of this during double drops, or they didn’t.
Either way is fine. But letting some take advantage and others not is what angers some players.
Totally avoidable. I don’t understand it.
And you can say “those who are angry are just a-holes anyway” - but it doesn’t matter.
Doing it this way angers some players with no real “upside” for the developers.
They are doing something to help the player base, so why not take full advantage of the good will earned from that? Why choose to execute it in a manner that they KNOW will lead to some angry players?
