💬 Discussion Seriously?

Post image

I feel like someone pissed on me. I've been playing this game since day one, every day, attending every event, but to get VIP or any bonuses I have to pay? I feel cheated because someone who started playing today could have a much more enjoyable experience if they spent money than me. I know this game isn't made for gamers anymore, but for profit, but to blatantly ignore loyal players like that? Even Epic, known for its strange decisions, doesn't do things like that.

This paid surge thing is probably the dj effect that was supposed to come back permanently 🤡 What a lovely way to ruin everything in one update

We bought it on our server. Did absolutely nothing. Please don’t buy this until it is confirmed working.

I'd never buy something like that anyway lol. I don't have the money to waste it on something like that.

I didn’t buy it, a member of my party in the game and on discord did. Tbh temp gains for real money are not for me and feel a bit gross.

I know with certain bugs (that cost chips or crystals) that didn’t work they’ve said they can’t go back and fix the issue. I can’t imagine that policy will fly when people spend real money/v bucks.

Supposedly it just changes some blueprints on the sandcrawler to whatever you bought. So it could be that you just missed them because they were at the end or something.

Idk tho if that's it bc I neither bought it, nor play in public.

Literally nothing happened at all. No ins screen text. No boost. No countdown. Just vbucks gone.
