I believe there should be a notice period before a promotion is pulled. Rex/Clone Auridum was pulled without notice. Please bring it back, and please give notice before discontinuing promotions.

Thank you

    I totally agree but I don't see this happening. What I'd like to see is multiple options at a time, and cycle them monthly or every few months.

    I haven't played any mobile games before, but compared to traditional MMOs, their communication is so awful. Absolutely no warning before changes, over and over again.

    Yes I'd love to finish my Rex.

    Yea, I thought it would be available forever. Now that I want him, he's replaced with tusken shaman

    Although I would love (LOVE) if they brought Rex back (and would totally max him), I don't see it. And I agree that the communication is nearly nonexistent when it comes to major changes like this.

    I'm actually really surprised they didn't give a warning, it was in the best interest for everyone. Players would know and decide to spend big before it went away to get their Rex and EA/GC would make some extra $ from the influx in people buying them before they expired. It's a bit of a no brainer. Does not make any sense.

    It really should have a countdown like the Yoda event. I'm fine with these things being timed, but 'limited' could mean a week or a month. People farming the shaman have a better idea now and likely won't be caught off guard, but Rex was handled very poorly.

    does any of the staff have business experience or ability to use common logic

    sometimes i think they do things to make money but just when i think i have them figured out they do something that prevents them from making more money lol

    Your team is still good enough @Predian ... Yeah I was going to go all in on clones. Debating it a little... I see pack is gone on forums in the morning, still at work so can't buy, and by the update at 3pm Rex is gone... Notice would have been nice. Complete fail to maximize revenue.

    It was added to the update notes right before it was removed, not in the initial notes 24 hours before the rollout. Jesse didn't know about this before hand and mentionend this somewhere. Btw, I was not interested in buying those packs, but some people write stuff that just is not true.

    +1 to Rex Pack available again and to notice
    that's actually the only thing I would spend money for.
    I choose the Red Pill.

    Forums are not the optimal way to communicate to the player base. In game alerts are far more effective and efficient. What percent of players read the forums? 10? 5?

    Then if only 5-10% use forums then that means 90-95% don't care about any issue discussed on the forums.

    Also, I know I didn't care much about Rex, but I was on the forums and read the patch notes and don't remember them saying anything about Auradium before the patch. I can't tell (the notes were posted the day before the patch and updated on the patch day, but there is no time stamp and I cannot find cached version). But I'm at least 75% sure that the Auradium portion of the patch notes was posted after the patch went live.

    It wasn't in the update notes until very shortly until the release. It was basically a last minute 'oh by the way the packs are going away with the update... UPDATE!' Addition to the notes.

    I too would like another shot at Rex, I keep borrowing a 7 star from a rando, I have a 4* from a chromium draw. Love his kit, and I always run Fives.
