Rocket constantly on fire

Now my sons rocket is doing the same, which really p**s me off as he was only level 16 and I spent many donuts levelling him up as he was desperate for the rocket.
Come EAA sort your lives out, you've had my money now where's the service?

Me too. A thought. Is it related to having taken advantage of the double launch pad glitch?

I never had a double launch pad, so it's not related to that. I'm going to go check on more time on my other account. If it's still not going to take off after the 4th try, I'm giving up for good.

Isn't the chance of a successful launch just 1 out of 4? Giving up after 4 launches seems a bit extreme.

Mine is always on fire as well. I think it's 6 or 7 times in a row.

I like how people are giving up as if it takes effort to tap the rocket plus you get money from it. Also, a one in four chance means you have a 25% chance of a successful launch not that you'l get a launch every 4 attempts.

*meh* Money is pretty much useless after you've been playing a certain amount of time. A twenty five percent chance means you've got a burning rocket pad thirty six out of forty eight hours. Considering the prizes are nice but not knock your socks off great, I think they'd do better by changing the failed lift off rates to at least only fifty percent. Being able to collect some debris once every two days just isn't that exciting and I'm losing interest in it as well.

Six attempts later, we have lift off. Can't wait to get some more debris in ten hours time...

I don't know but it's constantly on fire and never launches. Have tried 5 times now and they all failed. I had 3 successful launches on my main account. So apparently there's a glitch on the other one. Which is why I'm giving up. My boyfriend's old account is more of a hassle than anything else, I think he gave it to me to make me upset lol

I've had several failed launches and a few successful ones - even two good ones in a row. It's only a 25% chance of success, so I would expect there to be some dry stretches of maybe even 6 or 7 failed attempts. In the end, it doesn't cost me anything to do it, so why not?
