Makes no sense.
You have mods are popular community members, send them to take player suggestions.
Thing is especially hard for cashless players.
Making the game more difficult.
Eventually ppl won't see the reason to stick around

️ COMING FEBRUARY 24TH
Big, big things are happening over at the PIMD Web Store. We’re shaking up how you get rewarded for your purchases to give you more power, more choice and way more bang for your buck!
Why the Change?
These changes are significant so we want to make sure we're clear and direct about what’s happening, why we're doing it, and what it means for you.
To start with, the current Web Store reward system was built a long time ago. As the game has grown, it’s become harder to keep high-value rewards meaningful while preventing certain items from flooding the economy. It's also a been a challenge to add new kinds of rewards quickly in response to player demand, as well as making those rewards feel fair across different spending levels.
This has led us to restructure the system in what we hope is a more transparent way that benefits all!
Introducing Reward Point Tokens
Instead of most rewards being earned directly by completing tiers, you’ll now earnReward Point Tokens
Reward Point Token
HOW IT WORKS
EARN Reward Point Tokens as you reach different Web Store Challenge reward tiers when you shop from the Web Store.
REDEEM your Tokens in the brand new
CHOOSE the exact prizes you want to spend your Tokens on!
These Tokens
Do not expire
You’ll still receive ECs and other prizes from completing tiers, but the bulk of value now comes through Tokens that you control.
Having this brand new Reward Point Shop will allow us to rotate new rewards more frequently, respond to player demand faster and keep older rewards available in a structured way. This system gives us more flexibility and gives you more control. We'd like to think it's a win-win!
Blast From the Past Boxes
Blast from the Past boxes are moving from tier rewards into the Reward Point Store, and there will be fewer available per week! This was a necessary change as the previous rate they were being given out was putting a long-term strain on the game economy and reducing the overall value of those boxes.
We know Blast from the Past Boxes are really popular though, which is why we are making sure to include new, direct-for-purchase content in the Reward Point Shop that ticks some of the same boxes (sorry), like...
Bringback avatars
tl;dr: under this Reward Point Shop system:
BFTP Boxes will still be available in the Reward Point Shop!
You can save your tokens for them every week!
We are making sure to include things you like in the Reward Point Shop to make up for the lowered rate of boxes.
If BFTP Boxes are your priority, you can focus your Tokens toward them specifically but we hope you will like the other things we've added too
What About My Old Rewards?
You can still get the rewards you like, we're just redistributing them between tier rewards and the Reward Shop so that you have greater choice in the matter.
The total reward value you get from purchasing from the Web Store will remain comparable to before. The difference now is:
Less Box RNG
For e.g. if your preferred reward was something niche from BFTP, this system makes it easier to aim for those specific types of items! The choice is all yours.
XC Tiers
We’ve expanded the XC tier track. That means:
We did this so top participants can still have meaningful goals, while also shifting more value into the Token system where players have flexibilityIf you don’t reach the highest tiers every cycle, your progress still matters because Tokens accumulate and can be saved strategically to get you what you want, what you really, really want.
Let Us Know What You Think
All of this being said, we want to hear your feedback, especially after you've experienced this new update. We’ll be closely monitoring how this feels in the first few weeks, and if the system misses the mark, we’re open to revisiting it.
Thanks for sticking with us as we keep evolving the Web Store to support the long-term health of PIMD.
This is a big shift, but it's one it's all about making the Web Store better for everyone and giving US more flexibility to offer you exciting rewards.
Keep an eye out for the new Reward Point Shop section dropping on February the 24th!

ATA main focus is to earn more money, than making the game fair to everyone. Community task is appealing at first, until ATA make rewards untradeable. Many players are leaving the game, because they felt, progress is slow when you dont spend a lot.

still can't get anything right, let's start with how about remove dn from boxes we actually spend on and to open, 2nd there once was a time you got to pick hunt avatar gender but y'all act like that's a hard thing to accomplish now, 3rd leaderboard just ridiculous hunts were more enjoyable when people actually were rewarded the same just for completing hunt, I'll keep saying it Do Better ATA especially for the loyal players that have invested 10+ years and you wonder why there are so many inactive accounts

On paper it looks amazing to me, but I'll reserve my judgement to once I've tried it first hand. Love the idea though!

Intresting, but really think your missing something you should include mod boxes for collecting so many tokens would encourage players to save
RNG drops are super unfair, I spent lots of money to open those lucky boxes and got lite boxes, which is disappointing...hope new system will be more fair because for me opening next lucky boxes is meaningless/worthless...have no wish to ever try it again.
If u get additional points for spending ec that would be great ngl

Sooo... no one likes this idea
Yall need to do better fr
Yall need to do better frLikely when said countries change their laws and regulations.When will the other countries who previously didn't have access to the pimd store, be able to use it?
Y'all suck for this. Another money grab for those who spending hundreds of dollars or even thousands of dollars..
But what about us who don't use irl money to buy stuff in game, you don't even give af about us right.. Good luck with your "new rewards", tho no one asked for it nor we care about this bs.

At least make new content if you're gonna try to squeeze more money out of us... This is greedy and lazy. The things we actually ask for go ignored and nothing is going to change because the top spending players will remain as such.
I get that it's hard pumpkin out new content every 2-3 weeks, but honestly? Y'all would have an easier time if certain things — lucky boxes and shard boxes — were less frequent like they used to be. Make actual good content. Take your time and use the excess time to deliver on the mechanical changes, the changes y'all were allegedly play testing, and making our QoL on this game better. We made you. We raised you up. You are successful because we loved the product. Now y'all are sellouts who need to take a look at how other games reward their player base in ways that feel good.
But again, no one would have the spine to boycott ts.

i don't care about this, but please do not put any non-tradeable raccoon or angel content in this new store.
i don't spend here like i did back in the day. it will GUT ME to not be able to obtain cute angel + raccoon misc, avis & furni cos y'all want to only cater to those who chronologically make Webstore purchases
(i wonder what people's current VIP tokens will even be good for now or if they will be converted to the rainbow star thingy? idk I'm not fully clear on this update)

Im not gonna lie, the more i think about it, the more stupid and lazy it sounds. If all we get to be hopeful is recolorable avis and unoriginal ass content every single hunt, why play the game? Stop rolling out so many shard boxes and lucky boxes. Take the time to have some originality, wasnt that why yall did 14-21 day hunts at some point? Be more active in the pub and campus chats. Actually be engaging and non neglectful of your player base. I highly doubt you havent received enough input from people to make actual meaningful changes.
Meanwhile, you have an influx of people posting about selling bentos with $ and i dont see yall or the mods doing their job, fixing it or banning those people. If you cared enough to make your game better and non repetitive, you wouldnt be constantly reskinning avis and recoloring them to send them out again. All i see is nothing but negativity behind each update yall give and for good reason. Check your forums, be active, engage.. you’ll find some ideas cause plenty of people have em that tend to be better than whatever yall send out.

Blah
You guys seem to not care about the game economy as long as it benefits you. Youve re released furnis (through molly or recolored them so it could go as monthly furnis) tanking their prices.

Since I have almost stopped spending money and using webstore, it’s difficult for me to say how relevant this innovation is. But it seems to me that there are much more serious problems in the game that need to be solved than this one. And I don't quite understand why you ignore all this or say "we're working on it" for years. Like, I haven't been able to see how many speakers I have left for over a year, and it's just a tiny piece of code. For over two years, my game crashes when I try to trade an item I just got from another trade. For over two years, the game has been randomly displaying an "uh-oh" popups (up to 10 and maybe even more of them on top of each other). I'm not even talking about PvP system, black market, bots and lots of other things. But apparently, it's easier to invent a problem where there isn't one and "solve" it. I hope people will like this new system, but overall, the situation with the game is very depressing. It would be nice to hear news from the developers about working on real problems, rather than seeing the same text every time I download an update from app store.
This shows that you don’t know what us mods do, or what we’re able to do. We can silence those who are selling for $, and we do. We have no power to ban players and as soon as they’re silenced for selling they’re back again with new accounts.
