    Default PL losing players

    I know.... This thread is just another platinum complaint, but hey, here me out. With tapjoy offers eliminated, W3i took over. Althought their offers worked at times, they are not updated as frequently as most of the players desire. Also, many times have I clicked an offer and completed it without getting anything in return. It seems to me that the players, such as myself, who cannot afford to buy a 10 dollar iTunes giftcard just to respec twice are going to quit playing as it is impossible to change character layouts and other simple things. I've seen posts where people are saying that STS is "working on it", but that was many moons ago and nothing has been done. I also realize that platinum is meant to be a paid for currency bought with real money since after all, the game is free. However, disabling access to a few plat here and there makes more than just me a little aggravated. If you think this post is redundant and foolish, then you're probably just one of those people who can buy plat whenever they feel like doing so.

    I agree. I also think that it's glitchy and you shouldn't have to jump through so many hoops just to respec.

    You can play, and get lvl76 without buying any platinum.

    This is why, it is FREE for all.

    There are still 3 ways to get free platinum : Blessings, and Free offers ("Earn free Platinum"), and winning Forum Contests.

    It is already nice from StS to give a chance to everyone to get platinums.

    So, please, do not complain about STS not giving out enough platinums, or they'll erase all those ways, and, THIS time, you wouldn't have any ways left to get any platinums..

    And about "the app shouldn't be free" : STS wants to let everyone to be able to play their games for free.. After, you can pay for getting more content, however you don't have to.

    I have to agree about the free offers having a high fail rate is quite vexing, especially when using Tapjoy before you could go through tapjoy.com or use the in-game manager. I'm one of those who buys an itunes card maybe once in 2 months (a cheapskate, I know, but college tuition is expensive!) so I primarily rely on the daily blessing, elixir, and free plat. I have been fortunate enough to get a fair share of combo elixirs, and even 30 plat one time on the 5th day, but the game is still free to play even if it does become more grueling without those perks. At least we don't have to buy the main spine and at least pink drops are seemingly as rare for me as for the next person using luck elixirs XD

    R.I.P Tapjoy...

    I agree. I know that I have quit PL due to:


    • Elite this, elite that. Everything is plat based now. 4 day cap reward? Greedy much?
    • w3i doesn't work.
    • They continuously recycle items.
    • Sets look horrid.
    • Demonic is still 5m a piece. I mean, wake up and smell the drop rates...
    • Farming? Nah.


    Shame.

    This why they have created the daily blessings .
    But you must earn them (with logging every day) , have patience , plat will not rain from the sky if you do nothing for it.

    pl is free to play. it just takes some time and patience. and if you arent receiving your platinum from the w3i offers, you should shoot them an email. i dont remember their email though. But if you do, im sure they can do something for you, a friend emailed them and he received his platinum

    yea, I emailed w3i support, they handed it over to PL support and after 2 days I got my plat, the problem happens too often, you can't email w3i everytime your app doesnt reward you LOL.

    I think more truthful would be to say " I want some things that can only be purchased with plat". Wanting something, and it being a necessity are two different things.

    Also saying don't complain or theyll take all free plat away is wacky. If the new way isn't as good as tapjoy nothing wrong with letting sts know.

    I agree that PL might be losing players...but not for this reason. Though no solid proof, just circumstantial "theories":

    1. They're not showing their player count. Normally, a game would be proud to announce growth rates of their players on a regular basis, phrases like "We have 100,000 players playing our game on average at a given time..yada yada yada". You don't hear that here, why?

    2. The need for new games. If their current game is doing well, why make a new one? Why not infuse all the characteristics of the other Legends into one game, why separate them? By creating new games of the same genre, they're indirectly saying, they didn't get it right the first time, it's possible that one game of a single genre can run an entire development, why keep risking and developing new ones?...My theory, they're not satisfied with the performance of their current games, they need to keep "trying". It's common knowledge that it's better to fortify and improve an existing game rather than create a new one and risk an entire budget of development, yet they pursue this...they must be that motivated and convinced that their current ones aren't all that.

    Just my opinion
