Patch Notes - 3/16/18

I was supposed to get my 14 day chest today. Instead I am now 6 “spins” away from a legendary and I was counting on that 14 day to get a game I want out of the shop this week, before it’s sold out. The changes are fine but not resetting the users, especially the ones that were going to get chests today.

READ THE ORIGINAL POST, PLEASE?

You are getting 2,500 Coins later on.

I’m quite disappointed that no one posted this here, so I’ll have to do it.


Also, I like the changes, for now.

I feel your pain. I never got to the glorious 300…
Only reached 299 with number 300 coming up tomorrow. Heh.

Oh well. Guess its a healthy change though, don’t have to feel compelled to check every day to keep the streak alive.

Actually, I did. I also read a bunch of reply posts, and saw a lot of other users complaining about the same thing being reset and missing out on chests. It’s not much of a bonus if you were supposed to get a chest anyway.

i feel like a lot of people are missing (or just not reading at all) parts of the post

the “streak” system is gone and it’s changed in the process too,
so just because you were about to get a reward today/soon from a consecutive streak before; doesn’t mean it applies to the new changes of total combined coin clicks made now

I only had 5 legendary streaks but I kinda of appreciate the streak change for us obsessive & compulsive types… I’m free :smiley:

However, I’m quite wary of the change that purchases award coins too. I absolutely loved how fair and no-strings-attached the old coin system was. I can’t help thinking that this new system will get skewed somehow. The game industry has made me cynical and I have a bad feeling about this.

Yo, I’ve been a fan of your service for a long time now, but this update has definitely cemented you as my favourite online merchants. I really like what you’re doing and I hope things only get better for you.

Overall, I like the new changes - even though I was perfectly content with the old system.

If nothing else, it may end up saving the Chrono staff a few hours of investigating mysterious streak resets (which I’m fairly certain 9 out of 10 times was a result of user error).

Maybe I’m not understanding what you’re saying, but isn’t the community link still prominently displayed in the top menu bar?

This reminds me of something I’ve always meant to ask you: Can I have your Nostradamus of Poop badge when you are dead?

Any non-steam codes on the way? I’m pretty swamped with steam codes as is, but PS4/XBO/3DS/Switch would be Awesome! ^^

It seems to dynamically change based on your browser window size. At my window size only Coin Shop is visible. I don’t know if forcing coin shop and community to always be visible no matter the window is a viable thing to do, but I’d prefer if it was.

Well that crosses that off my list.

So I’m rather new to the Chrono community and while this is great - I did notice that because of the change, it boosted me past the 7 and 14 day chests (the former of which I was getting close to grabbing before the change) and robbed me of the rewards from either. That’s not cool. :c

read, the, notes…
system is changed
because of these changes, it will inevitably “reset”/skip some users “streaks”/rewards according to the old reward system
because of this, -chrono is giving you 2500coins (the same as a 30day streak reward), which should make up for any potential lost reward, and then some…

Wow this is great I love the change :slight_smile:

The streak system was good, but I can agree with the changes. I bet it was a few hours A Day dealing with missing/broken streaks. I am still Unbroken, but 1 day (or spin) short of champion.

I can’t wait to try out the new buy-a-game-get-coins process, as I am taking full credit for suggesting this.

So, you just reset people’s streaks to zero instead of converting it to spins? Great. I bet there are so many people “happy” about that.

that’s not what’s happening…

the entire system is changed -to make it more forgiving, to the benefit of “us” users…
to facilitate this change, the system changed in a manner in how “streaks” are calculated (streaks are actually removed now)
which means some had their “streaks”, sorta, reset/flipped
so they give you 2500 coins, which would have been more than the user that was landing a potential 30day streak “today” might have missed out on
so you didn’t lose anything…
and going onward the system change is only benefiting you/“us” in that it’s more forgiving in allowing your rewards should you “miss” a day or two now… (since now it’s counting total clicks, and not “consecutive” streaking)
