CURRENT EVENT Heckin' Dragons in My Dorm!

Hey all, thank you for your feedback on this cross-promo event so far. We understand the valid disappointment coming from folks who wanted to use their existing Heckfire account they've already invested a ton of time, energy and money into, and we wanted to share a bit more context on why this crosspromo was set up this particular way.

The main reason is fairness. For this promo, we wanted everyone earning PIMD rewards to start from the same point, on the same boosted realm, with the same event setup. This allows us tune the goals and rewards around a clean starting line instead of trying to balance around accounts with very different histories, progress, spend, and activity levels. Players who have never played Heckfire before also get a chance to experience the game at an accelerated level.

We’re also using this as a chance to test an isolated boosted realm experience and learn how players move through early and mid-game KOHF. In previous crosspromos, many players struggled to get past the tutorial and into the part of the game where things start to pick up, so this setup is meant to make the experience faster, smoother and more exciting than a normal fresh account. Think of it as limited-time promo to start way ahead, and as an added bonus, you get special rewards for participating!

We also wanted to reduce friction from older crosspromos, where players had to remember old emails, passwords, linked accounts, or follow more complicated steps to qualify. The new promo code system is intended to make claiming PIMD rewards simpler and more reliable while helping us build better reusable tech for future promos.

That said, we want to highlight that some rewards are very quick to reach. TH11 and the first milestone reward can be reached within minutes of starting a new account, and TH13 with the first furniture piece should be achievable shortly after with the boosts provided. Even spending around 10 minutes trying the event out should make some freebies very reachable.

It's also important to note that your existing Heckfire progress is not lost nor affected. If you have an ATA ID connected to your existing account, you can disconnect, try the crosspromo on a new account, and swap back and forth using ATA ID if you want to return to your original account.

We hear the concern that the boosted setup may not feel like enough yet, and we’re watching progression closely. If the pacing is too tight or players are not reaching rewards in a reasonable amount of time, we are open to making adjustments. Keep letting us know your thoughts!

Not gonna lie that's a bad excuse. Can't you at least make up a better one? Since most likely are aware how hard it is to level up, to get the resources to level up/unlock stuff to maybe increase Ur work a tiny bit, the many tasks that take a lot of time and energy to keep up with since they only last 1-2 hours. So to even have a real chance to get actual rewards THAT WOULD BE "WORTH" THIS EFFORT we are still forced to spend (again for those already had an account from ages ago!) to actually get stuff we want and let's be honest as well besides Avis, some stat items (which are not even high) there isn't really anything worth doing it. People could just do T10/T100 on a hunt that maybe in some day again be worth doing since lately hunts here also have been bad AF and not worth staying around or wait for shards/lucky boxes which literally give you more worth then this crossover which already says a lot to how "interested" ATA is being in keeping the games and us alive/entertained with these "ideas". Maybe you should actually start listening to players or hire some of us to actually give U the ideas and feedback you need since we are the ones who seem to be more interested in sticking around.

Are you on Kingdom of Heckfire or Rise of Kingdoms? For some reason when I searched for Heckfire, it downloaded a different game.
 
Honestly? This crossover is overall a pain to complete. Despite the speed ups given at the start, everything just takes so long to complete and if you’re not willing to spend hundreds to get the ressources and timers needed, you can’t realistically complete Town Hall 28 in the 2 months given. Losing the progress we also all had on the previous accounts lots of us spent time and sometimes money on for the previous crossover to be useless on this one is just discouraging.
 
The avatar are unique and not that bad to look at. I actually like the avatars..and Im happy they still involve pimd with the other game.
 
I'm not sure if this idea has been said yet (given I only skimmed through what I missed to the latest reply) but I think if we're going to play the "fairness" game it would be much considerate for the devs to make two pathways to receive the rewards (or more).

One path would be the one y'all are doing now: for the new players to have a boost and can get to experience playing KOH with an easier way. You can do your "experiment" on this group. That means using the promo code and the reward tiers would be the same as shown now. TH level 11 and so on until TH level 28.

Second path would be for the already existing KOH players. Using this path will be much more considerate for their part as well because right now it looks a lot like trying to get the big spenders from PIMD to your other game. Not a good image, I'd say. Anyways, the path would be using steps. Let me explain: so let's say player A already has a TH level 23, they could get the first reward tier after upgrading 1 level (as it's high already and would take a lot of time). And the second tier would be after leveling up TH 2 times. Something like and I would keep the gap small, as in every 1 to 2 levels. But they would also have the boost which should take up a little less time than to playing it "traditionally."

Not sure if my explanation makes sense. It would be tough for the developer team aka the coders but it's more fair gameplay-wise that way imo.

P.S. I think someone has mentioned this before (I quote you whoever you are) that it's pointless to start giving rewards at TH level 11 when we start at level 10. It'd be nice if we instantly get a welcome gift or such after installing and activating the promo code.

But what if we’re on Pimd? We literally can’t try because on Pimd the link code is a one time promo code. I can’t get rewards on heckfire nor on Pimd because I deleted the app and started a new heckfire acc. You guys should’ve done a regenerate code thing after 24 hours
 
I'm annoyed.
I've spent time and money on KOH since the 1st crossover. I was inactive, but I played a long time after the crossover. I had so much research unlocked and dragons upgraded. To start all the way over??
Bs.

My marches move so slow. The research to catch up to my main is ludicrous.

I will 100% be abandoning the new account as soon as I'm done with the rewards.

Silly way to try to revive a dying game.

Should have created new tiers of monster hunting or research to do or a special meta just for the crossover.
 
can’t even make a new acc because it won’t let me logout of my old account after following the tutorial to unlink it lmfao. wait a whole day to be able to participate in a crossover for a game i already played? wtf lol
