Habitat sale gone

[harobeda]

Earlier there were three habitats on sale for 50 gold: Grand cloud castle, grand falling sky, grand elemental plane. At some point in the last hour they?ve been removed. I literally stopped just before buying gold for real world money to verify the habitats were there- when they weren?t I didn?t purchase gold. S8 lost my money.

With all the errors S8 has done today, why would they take away the only decent sale they?ve had this month? Will they return these to the sale posted earlier. I didn?t get a chance to buy them as I wanted in my accounts. :mad:

I was sick and just woke up and was going to buy a bunch and they are gone

[Sugarcat5]

I managed to get two of the grand elemental planes and was going to get some of the others but....poof! They're gone! So disappointed:(

[Bameeee]

Me, too. I got just half of my intentions then I left the game for an errand. They are gone when I got back. ����

[sipland]

I was going to buy some as well but was waiting until I had time to do some rearranging. I could swear the sale said it would last until Jan 5, so I thought we had lots of time! Please bring it back!

[random59]

I managed to score some, and the cloud Castle is in the pop up, just another load of rubbish being dished up to us. This event is so full of blah bah humbug it is not funny. The only thing they seemed to get right this time was the side task of Carol!:(

[DragonPhoenix6]

This is a total disaster and I am VERY annoyed! All 3 habitats on sale for 50 are gone, plus I can not collect times from the festive flower! It feels like S8 rushed everything to finish work early and enjoy the New Years Eve weekend, making a lot of mistakes and annoying all their customers!

I think it was a mistake... the three habitats with 50 gold price... S8 put 50 instead of 250... this is what I think
I have bought 1 though...

[RhodryMaelwaedd]

So they managed to take the time to remove the 50 gold habitats, but not to fix the spell shop so people can finish their tales and/or get their well-deserved glasswing???

You got it!

[Den8137259]

Earlier I couldn't buy cos I need to breed and expand to the new lands, now that I'm set to buy these habitats, they've poofed ★

S8 please bring back the sale ★ ty

[kooky panda]

I have reported this over.

I have also moved this thread to the bug forum.

[savage_mel]

This is aggravating. I was also planning on buying a few of these habitats. Just waiting for some land to open up and now, gone! The stuff that has gone down in the last little while and S8?s response to it all (or lack of) is disgusting

[amalsaba]

I'm sorry you guys missed out. I bought 3 of those habitats. I thought they were too good to be true and now I noticed mamy players complaining, I checked my market and the sale is gone. At least it was a good mistake. I gotta say though, if it wasn't from the new land, I wouldn't have had enough room for the new habitats. And I quickly filled them with dragons, just in case they changed their mind. But I assume that DS staff are off for the new year's celebrations. Fair enough. Happy New Year Everyone ❤

[Rfs04]

I wonder if I should help them and tell them what they did..... notice the word Grand on each of the 3 disappearing habitats, notice original price was 100. I originally thought maybe they were real old ones from good old days of reasonable prices. But, no!

That item was really the market item to Upgrade those 3 habs from 4s to 5s. 100 gold got you 1 more dragon. So voila, Grand for 5 at the upgrade price of 100 on sale for 50!

Oh they couldn't let that stay. Forget fixing problems, forget it all! They're losing gold on those 3 habs. Now let's see how they phrase the take away!!

[Rfs04]

I completely agree with everyone's wishes for those items to be put back as they were for that price for all S8s loyal customers. Considering the fiasco they did with new world event and smashing players hopes and hard work in tales, the very least...the very very least S8 could do is let those habitats stay....mistake and all.

They should be ashamed of removing them, especially removing them BEFORE they addressed and FIXED all the issues in tales and the event.

Exactly! And the pop up said that sale ends 01/01, so at least S8 could keep it till then. Most of players have no space to buy and place habitats immediately. Which opens up the next all-time question - why we cannot put habitats in storage and use them on our choice???
This game has so many issues and is into money money money, that is becoming disgusting.
I am a player for over 7 years and disappointments are just piling up. No reward for loyalty whatsoever, that is clear

There was an issue with the sale and the habitats were removed from the Market. We apologize for the inconvenience!

Oh, really?! How nice! Astonishing! And convenient, of course :) An hour ago a pop up showed up in game with those very same questioned habitats, again offered "on sale" along with zodiac dragons, except they are not even listed now. Guess it is just to drive players mad and reminding them what they will not get. Fabulous sale, indeed and Happy New Year to all players. S8 really became the masters of spoiling fun and mood. Congratulations for that awesome achievement!

[missourijan]

storm8 has no good will. I figured that out within my first week of playing. Sad too because so many of us love their games . If they had any grace they would honor the sale. Honestly what harm could come from selling pixels for 50 gold and actually SELLING a lot of them?????. Because at 50 I may buy 3 or 4 and at 250 I am buying zero so I wonder how many players are like me??

Lots of players are like you including me.
I would of liked to replace all my red rock habitats with these.

Hopefully maybe they will consider putting these three habitats for sale ...for say a 24 hour period.
Time and day posted before sale but unfortunately I worked for a wholesale company for many years and I see the advantage of being the seller of a 10 items at 50 versus 1 item at 250

At the end of the day if the customer base that does not have a bunch of gold producing dragons open their wallets and buy a ten dollar package of gold to buy these habitats then I repeat that the company wins with real money.

especially when you are selling pixels

[AinoDK]

At the last sale I got 48 of the 75 gold 5-dragon habitats, for which I needed to buy gold.

When I saw this sale, I was calculating how many I would get of each, and how much gold woulld be required. Then the habitats went Poof, making the math so much simpler: Zero!

Then why are you still advertising the Grand Elemental Plane and the Grand Cloud Castle as 50 % off price till Jan 5th?

41191

When you created that picture you people included those habitats on the offer. Now we cannot buy them at any price. You are advertising something not available for us to buy any more at any price. And the offer says " till 1/05"

EDIT: On futher inspection I see the Elemental Plane on sale at the market for 250 gold, which is very similar to the Grand Elemental plane previously available, if not identical. But there is not Cloud Castle habitat on the market, Grand or normal size, on sale or at normal price.

So, why did you create an advertising campaign with a picture of an habitat that has been available for only a few hours and that is not available any more, at any price?

[DragonPhoenix6]

S8 as you can see there are a lot of unhappy players posting in this thread, as mentioned above, it would be nice to have a gesture of good will after the mess up with the World Event, which by the way nobody will finish now, and bring back the sale so that we would buy gold packages to buy those habitats, I have 3 islands and I bought around 50 of those habitats for 2 of my islands but I did not have time to buy them for my third island, so I, along with many other players, will be buying lots more of those habitats to replace our 3 dragons habitats if the sale comes back, if not I am sure nobody else will be buying habitats at 250 gold and S8 will be loosing money!

Only an hour ago, eh! I saw the same pop up last night, well after the problem habitats were removed so that was bad enough. If they are still advertising the same habs it sounds to me like bait and switch. Which is illegal. And poor sportsmanship to boot😊

The Elemental Plane on offer now for 250 only houses 4 dragons, the Grand Elemental Plane houses 5; that's the main difference. I'm super sad that they took this and the cloud habitat away.

When they were offering a sale during the Fey dragon events (don't recall the exact one) they had a habitat on sale called the Fairy Crossroad which also held 5 dragons (fey, white, green and blue). This habitat was priced at only 75 gold, I bought several at the time. I bring this up because I don't understand why they didn't just leave the 5 dragon habitats and switch the price from 50 to 75 gold. I'm sure many players would've bought them at that price and it's obviously a price S8 feels comfortable with. I find myself constantly mystified by their responses to these situations.

I agree. Their responses are impossible to comprehend.

[harobeda]

Yet this issue can now be called “solved” because they just say it’s a mistake, while making no offer of correction. :mad:

Exactly! Such a lack of consideration for the players that always spend gold wanting to buy those habitats! That’s revolting!

Revolting but exactly what I have come to expect from storm8. Think of the money they could make it players were ever encouraged to open their wallets instead of intentionally ticked off which makes me close mine

[harobeda]

Seriously! I would've dropped some money to be able to have more dragons stored at a good price. It truly is their loss of money (and building into my frustration).
