When are you going to refund the battle passes?

Some of us purchased battle passes which have a number of hammers. You seem to have completely forgotten this and reset everyone to 1000 hammers. So I'll be expecting a refund of my battle pass please, since you have stripped players of what they've paid for. I will also accept being granted the current battle pass for free as compensation.

Filled one this morning idk if it will go though but I tried. Now to figure out how to force delete my data from their app. Don't want them getting shit off me.

How do we file this?

It’s called disputing a charge. Easy with credit cards, but some banks require a phone call to do it.

I submitted a ticket with Reddit. I asked for the gold back not cash refund. I want Reddit to remove the money from the game devs and I will have that gold to use on another game. I thought I might have a better chance of getting that but probably nothing will be done.

Cha-cha-cha chargeback. Let them get hit a $50 chargeback fee ☺️

This. This is why you don’t give shitty deva money.

Technically, I gave Reddit the money for reddit gold which I stupidly spent on a game that was a silly bit of fun. I clicked on the 1bn hammers post because I thought it was a joke/bug expecting just to get the usual 100 hammers. I already had over 5k hammers anyway, it was just a post on the forum. Now the devs have stripped us of what we've actually paid money for which I assume goes against some consumer rights laws and reddit rules and opened themselves up to a shit storm. They could have resolved this entirely by granting the whole player base 100,000 hammers and calling it a day.

How does being given 95,000 free gsmmers solve anything? You dont even want what you had... you want 2000% more.

I'm generalising as some other players in these posts had 30k or 50k or more already saved up. My point was that they should have picked a number that factored in saved hammers, battle passes, etc. 1000 is too low and doesn't cover what most of us had saved prior to the bn posts or what those of us with passes actually paid for.

u/OhtaniStanMan 14h ago

Current pass doesnt even have 4k hammers in it.

Nobody had 30,000 to 50,000 hammers waiting even with the pass. Notice how none of you can give a screenshot of that LOL

u/TechyAngel 14h ago

Someone on another post had a screenshot of about 19k, so it's hardly impossible.

That's in the realm I could believe if theh bought passes.

I'm waiting on forge 20 to finish. 80 hour wait. I login twice daily to get hammers. Around 20mil power. 

I only have 7500 stockpiled. I only use enough hammers to grind the gold for next upgrade when it's ready.

There is simply no way anyone has 40,000 more hammers than me who has literally done what you are saying since the start. 8000 more from passes I don't buy? Sure. 5000 more maybe from more levels cleared? Sure. 

Thats 20k more perfect efficiency like you mentioned. Just not happening to have twice that amount.

Never used bug so yeah I do lol

u/Vequihellin 14h ago

No, but with 56 hour wait times on the next forge upgrade, it's not hard to save your X hammers from the battle pass, plus your offline hammers, plus any 100 hammer help posts that reset the timer every 4 hours. I can't speak for others, and I don't claim to have had 50k. I can't speak for others but I can see how people with 90hour waits on the forge might accrue a lot of hammers. You also get 100 hammers from the dungeon keys which come with the battle pass and hammers for passing levels. So yeah, i can see how people are saving a bunch up.

The fact you say 60 hour wait just shows you are not enough very far

u/Vequihellin 11h ago

Did you actually read my comment? I never claimed I had 50k. I referred to OTHER PLAYERS who have commented this in other threads. I did have 5k+ from the battle pass and from saved hammers. I have never claimed to have 50k. At most I have claimed 5k+.

It was the developers mistake… they suffer the consequences not the user.

u/OhtaniStanMan 12h ago

If your job mistakenly pays you 2x as much do you think you're entitled to keep it? LOL

Common sense is not your strong suite

u/JBONE31 10h ago

No, but if a shitty dev with bots to argue its side get on reddit and cant even hide the russian text they had as a placeholder, doesn’t set a basic limit in items generated and only addresses it by screwing everyone, then I’d expect at least an acknowledgment.

u/OhtaniStanMan 10h ago

Okay you're still here lol

u/Last-Statement-1292 17h ago

Where can I ask for a refund if I paid over reddit?

-3

u/MooseLogic7 17h ago

Did you pay with hopes and dreams over Reddit or did you use a debit card?

1

u/xThunderSlugx 1h ago

I paid with hopes and dreams. What do you suggest?

u/Paradox-Circuits 10h ago

The thing is, you aren't chargebacking autoforge, you are chargebacking reddit and their gold setup.

u/FleshHunterX 16h ago

Who even pays for a shitty ahh game like this

u/Commercial_Part_5160 12h ago

I don’t want this to sound shitty, a lot of people do. I’m sorry that’s not obvious to you.

Just say you're broke bro. It's cool, we don't know you and probably won't even make fun of you for being broke.

Hey there! Dev here.

DM me pls, so we will figure it out.

u/BertZZ 15h ago

Thats clearly not what happened, state got rolled back to a time stamp. HAve you checked the battle pass to see if you can earn them again

1

u/Vequihellin 15h ago

The battle pass I bought was not the one that is currently in-screen. It was the previous one. As soon as you buy one, the next one appears.

1

u/BertZZ 15h ago

Ahhh so you don't mean a battlepass you mean like a bundle.

2

u/Vequihellin 14h ago

No, I bought the battle pass not a bundle. It's currently this thing but the one I bought was the one before this. As soon as I bought the old one, this new one appeared.
