The fact that P2W players can have twice as many incubators as F2P players is not normal, and its horrible to introduce this mechanic on day 1 of the ShinyWar, when many players are very emotionally involved and will just pay without thinking.

What you're saying is "buy 7 incubators regularly, or you'll have no chance of winning the shiny war."
The difference in the number of eggs hatched between a player who does not pay for temporary incubators and a player who does will be enormous over 1 month.

If we could only buy two temporary incubators, I would have understood, you have costs, you have to make money, that's the reality. But almost DOUBLE the number of incubators for P2W / P2F players...
This is complete nonsense in my opinion, I sincerely think it's an abuse of your customers. + its so bad for the Shiny War in general.

Obviously, a tremendous amount of good work has been done in this update, so I applaud the massive effort put into this update.
However, I respectfully request that you reconsider the temporary incubators, as this is completely abusive in my opinion and in the eyes of many players.
Thank you for your consideration.

could be nice to have just one message instead of 5

i dunno

i've only just recently got into this game but even i can see why people are so disgusted by temp incubators, especially during this event

imagine being someone who is super into shunting and are looking forward to preparing for this event and all of a sudden "hey well now instead of going for a 'fair' grind, you can now pay and be at an advantage vs people who don't pay, because that'll make you feel good and accomplished, right? well anyway we're getting a butt load of money for it so whatever!"

i get it, this mmo is profitable. from a dev standpoint it's a great idea to improve revenue. from a player standpoint, especially dedicated players, it's heartbreaking and almost predatory when there are so many people who don't want to see the event and shiny hunting in general become more of a p2w mess than it already is. i think they made a good choice to disable temp incubators for a month, but really they shouldn't exist at all in my opinion. but we get what we get.



i think the disgust from the players is valid and arguably outweighs the good. the rest of the update is okay i guess but i hadn't had a chance to look at the cosmetics, so perhaps they didn't have to bother with that, either

The update have a lot a very cool feature but... 7 pay2win incubators... means its a P2W shiny war... I am disgusted about this

BIG W ! SHINY WAR IS SAVED !

Looking for info about upcoming features we mentioned? Don't worry, they're still on their way. They're currently scheduled for release later this year.

To the same Devs,

Thank you so much for your quick response to these issues, to me, and the many members of the community that supported my previous post, this a show that unlike many other games we have played, you all truthfully do care. This shows, as a stated in the last post, that you have nurtured this game for 13 years and do not plan on letting that change anytime soon. Thank you, from all of us players in the community, thank you.

Thank you and cheers to 13 more years,

BIG W ! SHINY WAR IS SAVED !

Hi everyone,

We're temporarily disabling sales of Temporary Incubators until next month.

For the few people who already bought some, they'll be refunded. For the very few people who already activated them, they will have their uses set to 1 and be automatically refunded.

In the meantime, permanent incubators are here to stay and we'll see how we can improve the system.

Honestly maybe just remove for shiny wars to avoid p2w concern there? It’s not like rare shinies will suddenly be everywhere, I can see a real benefit to speeding up that process and making shinies more accessible(while still rare)

I'm so Glad that i will get Mostly Permanent Incubators from Beating Red 91 Times! XD

i have a win-win solution, by limiting the purchase of temporary incubators, for example 5 incubators per day

I agree! horrible for the value and hours put into egg shunts

Having the temp incubators break after 500 is an obvious cash grab. Imo they should be a permanent upgrade like pc expansions or just limit everyone to the 8 storyline ones.

agreed, remove incubators please

Agreed remove the incubators, while you're at it remove my shiny lock as well

100% agree with this. This feels so sad man!

Agree with this, should remove all temporary incubators.

the fact that we have to even make this thread is ridiculous, do better devs

Igual tienen que entender que para poder traer mas contenido y mantener dichos servidores necesitan donaciones o dinero. Quizas no sea la forma ideal de obtenerlo pero es verdad que hay pocas cosas llamativas en la tienda y que algo asi de beneficioso atraera mas gente que le meta dinero al juego, igual puedo estar equivocado pero por lo menos yo lo veo de esa forma :D

I agree with every word written in this post.

It's obviously a cash grab

+1 to remove temp incubators

Get the greed out! this is not needed

agreed, I think temporary incubators are harmful to the game
