‘Changed inactive free refills maximum credit quantity from 250 to 100’
Not the fix the game needs, but it’s a start.
From experience, this should cap around 17-18 months inactive. 100 refills is still 600 attacks, or 1000 if using Ugly Energy.
Can admins/devs make it so that these can’t be used in events such as Halloween now? Thanks in advance
edit: downvoted mainly from players who have long periods of inactivity.
What happens to those who already hold 250?
I have a feeling we will see a lot of inactives suddenly coming to life xd
I mean honestly just lol at this really, it doesn't change the fundamental issue of the huge effect a large number of refills can have in a short amount of time.
Having 250 (or even more?) wasn't the issue. It was being able to use 250 in a single day which severely compromises time-limited events.
Feels a little like Ched completely skim-read all the feedback / issues with this.
They’ll only see 100 max, I know 250 took around 4 years before.
And probably so, come on, use 40-50 of the ones they have there, and then no activity again until Xmas town.
Or maybe reward those of us that hang out instead of those that f**k off and stop contributing.
The problem with time limited, is the fact that you can’t use points ones whilst having the inactive ones available.
So if you want to use your own points, you could miss out for 20-25 days if it was 4 or 5 allowed per day.
I don't really see that as a problem. You have extra refills for not having played the game, seems like a pretty good deal if you have to sacrifice the 1x 25 point refill each day.
I mean why didn't Ched just remove the cap entirely?
The better solution would be to make it so that there is no cap, but make it so that when in an energy-intensive competition, refills, inactive or not, should be limited to 1 energy refill a day.
Btw wasn't this number already lowered a few years back from an unlimited amount (or some high number) down to 250? What was the reason for that back then?
It was either 1000 or 500 a few years ago.
If player is actively using refills for training/reviving (non time limited events) I think it should be allowed to refill with your own points too.
I had to rush through mine in the space of around 24-48 hours without thinking about how best to use them so that I didn’t miss out on points refills.
There was also a glitch where if you clicked your points > refill energy > gym > train and click points again, it would auto refill without having to click refill energy. I believe I lost a couple of refills to this before I realised what had happened.
You can use point refills from faction without using free one.
Just saying that here way around and buy new fc, upgrade to points armory and use e refills from armory is not hard to do.
Looks like it was fixed.
That has been fixed quite a few months ago. If you have refills, you can't use faction ones until you use up the stocked ones.
wait that actually works? I thought you can't use armory to refill when you have free refills
Edit: oh nvm apparently it doesn't
Agreed, I suggest everyone who gets that merit for playing 100 days in a row gets 100 free refills! :D
I missed that. I just know that in past I had member that back from inactivity then donated points for using them from armory while he hoped get Book : Ugly Energy.
i also vote for free stuff
we get 250 e from news mails :D
By current estimates, they roughly get a single 150 energy refill for every 5,040 energy(natural weekly regeneration of e) they missed out on to help them catch up a little bit. No amount of event prizes or rewards will make up for not using up their 5k weekly energy while they were retired, and I'm not even counting xanax use, nerve, event participation they missed out on etc.
I think limiting it to 100 is a good balanced change that still allows people to feel like they can catch up a bit, while not going overboard.
Your suggestion is fairly good as well, but if they were to prevent stocked refill usage in events, I think they should remove the new cap.
EDIT: Was in a hurry, accidentally wrote 1k energy when I meant ticks of energy. Corrected the comment now
atleast its like 1 merit for playing 100 days in a row and not some powerups/loot crate/"unlimited energy" kind of thing.
