Arachnean Weaver compensation

LOL What a slap in the face.

no, this one i just checked and it was unfair for the devs, 4.21 first started the post in other game platform.

Devs were merely replying to the accusation thrown

The issue is not who started the discussion somewhere else but what was said there.

Puzzle Quest 3 belongs to the same company as Gems of War, it also uses loot box mechanics and partially shares the same player base. It doesn’t strike me as unfair to reach out to players to make them aware they are owed a refund, and to caution them against doing further business with IP2. In fact, it doesn’t even strike me as unfair to push this to more public facing platforms, like Reddit and Facebook. I seem to recall someone proposed #weavergate.

Just to point this out once more, EVERY claim IP2 made in this matter to make it appear not exclusively their fault has been proven incorrect, the long version is here. They still refuse to honor their business deals, or even just explain themselves in any way. They just keep spreading information they know isn’t true, hoping they can cover this up.

Gems of Wars AW saga Sermon 1
“ be sure your sin will find you out.” Numbers 32:23

A wild Sirrian has appeared.

This does feel rather odd. Apparently IP2 is working on a compromise for next week, one that actually already got signed off, implemented and failed to address the issue in any way. Summing it up, “sorry you didn’t receive the Arachnean Weaver you paid for, as compensation we’ll allow someone else to craft one at half cost”. Maybe Sirrian only received some executive summary trying to play down the whole ongoing fiasco and needs some time to read up on what really happened?

Eh, Sirrian just seems hopelessly lost.

So where is the compensation for players who spent keys but don’t have the resources to craft AW even at the lower cost? So they get nothing, correct?

At the very least any keys used during that week should be refunded and returned, regardless of how time consuming this will be for the developers.

I agree. All even keys spent on the Monday through Thursday should be refunded.

They could have just sent every player a weaver. Saves time, and time is money - a digital item isn’t.

Would people get a weaver who haven’t spent? Yep.
Would that be one less mythic to chase after? Yep.

But just imagine the welcome surprise and warm fuzzy feeling getting a mythic in the mail.

Newer players might get hooked on that good feeling.
Older players will feel good about how the devs handle situations like this.
Anyone would be pleasantly surprised.

All at the cost of one troop of over 1000, a digital item that doesn’t cost anything to produce but the time it would take to mail it out.

I will never understand…

i agree with you, up to now, we have 72 ish mythics, giving away 1 mythic to the affected players isnt really a big thing.

it’s nothing much compared to the happy players that would bring more players to play the game.

idk, not my company, not my decision. I also don’t know how easy/difficult is it to trace players that spent event keys 2 weeks ago, and i think it’s already too late for that, much too late. Players that spent lots of event keys that time has probably crafted weaver or pulled weaver on the next Friday after Yvendra release. They would not really appreciate a free weaver at this point.

i think right now IP2 just have a few more disgruntled customer base because of this issue.

AW is not a big time Mythic so giving this out will just increase their economy. Players will feel supportive.

Lying to escape responsibility is not cool.

They could’ve release an information explaining that “due to covid-19, we are understaff so QA is compromised. As a result, there are tons of bugs in Krystara. As a consequence, we are giving away AW to those people who spent >1000 event keys and a 50% discount to craft AW for 2 months.

Note: I am not interested on AW anymore. Just a weavergate supporter.

Wow. I totally missed this, but event keys aren’t easy to come by. Their “damage control” statement basically says lying by omission equals the truth? That’s what they’re going with?!
