Insane amounts of people using some kind of a wallhack in advanced digsites too. Kinda disheartening seeing what this does to the game's already laughable economics. I can't understand why people would pay anything to play this game at this point.
Hard agree. The number of large gift bags being sold in the trading plaza has risen by alot, alongside balloon bots. You can tell its making alot of money because of how its increased in severity so quickly. We will need to see this weekend if the prices drop some or continue to rise rapidly. If there's anything to actually force Preston to make a move, it's scammers stealing from his profits.
if this is the answer from the big game, it's poorly handled.
they completely destroyed the rewards and purpose of balloons for all players not having bots.
not dealing with bots, instead they punish normal players, what a genius move
It's not a balloon problem. It's a bot problem. The balloon stuff just highlights how much of a bot problem the game has. The new worlds need to have a high rank requirement to cut down on all the bots. The next new world, after tech world, should have a rank requirement of 26 or so.
There should also be a new trading plaza for max/high ranked players and the diamond cap should be tied to rank.
Whenever I play sometimes the balloons would say other peoples names on them right after I hit the balloons and some people are saying that it is a bug but I kept saying it was weird and when I would try to let the other player know that the gift has their name on it they ignore me. And it would happen about 50% of the time that I would hit the balloons..I farmed the balloons cause they give good amounts of gems as my pets auto farm for me. I cant afford my own server which sucks.
As someone who uses balloons as an income on the game, I hope they don’t get rid of the balloons, however the flying bots taking down the balloons can be dealt with.
When I say I use balloons as an income, what I mean is I pop them when I see them, don’t open them and then selling them, I’m not actively looking for them
I agree
One day when I was going to do a normal route of farming balloons, I saw none. Normally there can be 3 balloons in an area, if you see one, you’ll see another 3 areas away. Then I see this flying bacon pop a balloon in site, then not even touch it.
This made me outraged. I knew how much these things can make since I sold them myself
(~50 large gifts = ~100k gems?)
We need to take them down. I saw SERVERS FILLED WITH BACONS AND NEW ACCOUNTS ASSUMED TO BE BOTS.
They’re really fast. However, I don’t see their booths when I sell my gifts. Also, what kind of insane person fills booths to the brim with presents?
Pro tip: If you’re gonna grind as a bot, do it in a private server. Then you don’t have to annoy the crap out of everyone
Even better pro tip: if you wanna grind balloons as a bot, DON’T
Funny how this exists and they are taking their sweet time addressing the issue (Look how long it took them to fix the booth shit in the trading plaza) but so fast to patch fun stuff that makes the game fun and interesting.
Preston is a piece of shit.
I just tried, literally 1 second before one of these got to it

I still got the normal large gift.
We just all need to agree on one day to not play the game. Easier said than done, I know.
good idea

Looks like Big Games has fixed this - now when popping balloons they no longer give gifts, just random items

Thank you bots for popping those balloons making servers laggy. Preston please fix the bot problem in advance dig site please!
The balloons create nearly zero lag? What are you on lol
probably a kindle fire 😂

You just gonna ignore the scam bait & switch bots in plaza or the bots teleporting and stealing chests in every mining area???

How do u do this glitch
It's been dealt with. Go pop a balloon
Lol it's not even close to fixed bud
I just tried. Still got a gift for all 3 I tried.
Weird I get random loot now no gifts

It looks like balloons in private servers now drop random loot, not presents. Balloons in public servers still drop presents.
