Free boost? Or not free boost?the cake is a lie😶

When I saw it had changed, I just turned the Xbox off.

It’s odd that something that wasn’t meant to be given still feels a little dirty when taken away.

Nope. It’s back down to the regular boost level and ā€œi’m officially ticked off.ā€

Though it was, this is now not, and so is inaccurate.

This is Seras stance on the matter upon closing the other thread. THIS is supposed to be the Community Manager.

That’s ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– .

TC got us ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā–  up.

Look something went wrong, something always goes wrong. I’m not happy about it as most of you but I’m sure it’s not @TC_Sera fault. Let’s not direct our anger towards her.

Then what’s the point of her being Community Manager? Besides, a quick explanation " yeah we messed up sorry" takes like what, 2 minutes?

We don’t know what happened. We always speculate.

Sera herself closed this thread so they at least acknowleged it. Yet no explanation to be seen.

I would add that while I definitely want a better explanation she is off the clock and it’s now the weekend, so its unlikely she would get a response chasing up an explanation from anyone until they return to the office on tuesday.

And not even a real comment about what is going on. Just close a thread with a weird comment that almost makes it sound like the original poster was making it up with the ā€œis inaccurateā€ comment

I get that to a degree. But the community posted about the 6x XP on this crazy, hole in the wall place, forums.gearsofwar.com 5 hours ago… by 1 PM local time for TC. It’s not like anyone who works for TC bothers to go to that obscure Gears forums site.

Maybe TC should start though

I don’t disagree with you.

I know man it’s very disappointing. We do need a better explanation but I doubt we will get it.

I know. I’m just getting sick how the new, transparent, fan-focused TC that emerged right before the start of OP4 seems to have turned back into the old, secretive, company-focused TC in under 13 weeks.

Though you could argue the ā€œnewā€ TC never existed considering how ā€œtransparentā€ TC was with the Scrap conversation rate that saw our purchasing power lose power in that conversion.

Pretty dumb they turned it off and gave a lame explanation. Hopefully we’ll get the full xp weekend next week or whenever they do the Halloween events.

Dana tweeted out that it was a mistake.

Calling it now, TC wanted to do this for the launch of the Series X/S and OP5 and accidentally put it on in the wrong month.

Just my guess.

Same. I had it earlier but had to run some errands and was looking forward to grinding some characters later. Now I’m just pissed.
