Exploit bugs to your hearts content. You will be rewarded, not punished if you do so.
Blizzard told everyone to not to spend the dust as they may go into negative (which would be truly awful for anyone spending a lot of dust on non-essential cards, potentially ruining your future experience - think 17600 negative dust = ~176 packs of duplicates.)
Then proceeds to reward everyone who knowingly or unknowingly disregards their message by spending it on cards while thereby punishing (due to a lack of equal reward) everyone that listened.
Your takeaway here can be nothing other than given the opportunity, cheat, steal and exploit. This will be my new mantra going forward with Microsoft. Thanks for the valuable lesson.
Spending months playing the game just to get a few legendaries and epics, and people get 15k+ dust with no downside? It is serious money and time issue.
Itâs a card game, idc if some people get 15K dust. Everyone netdecks so why do you care lol? If anything this will get people to play decks that arenât the same stuff
As I said, I have spent months on the game, as have many others who donât spend 50 100 on preorders to actually play the game. 15k dust is enough to craft more than I have crafted in 2 expansions playing the game nonstop for 5 months. How is that fair?
No I agree completely, I think unless they were actually going to do negative dust, everyone should get the double. They messed it up and as you said they should own it. That doesnât take away from them saying oh we are going to do negative dust then no one who spent any of their dust has had that happen, yet if you had dust saved and didnât use their âextraâ dust, people are reporting losing their own saved dust. None of it is fair and I get it. I actually got about 6k and used it on a few legendaries and I am happy I did, that does not change that itâs not even for everyone, in a game where you either have to spend a lot of money or a lot of time to be competitive.
Edit: was also thinking with the huge dust influx for some people, they may not spend money on the game again, and people who got a bad taste out of all of these shenanigans, may not spend money even if they had in the past, none of which is good for them anyways.
So true. Iâm a whale and Iâm already thinking I shouldnât spend so much on this game. Look at how they treat people. I feel like they are greedy. Itâs an expensive time consuming game.
They are forgetting itâs important to treat the costumer right.
It will backfire on them. They donât need more bad press.
This whole situation couldâve been something positiveâŚnow itâs left a sour taste in my mouth.
Iâm not like a crazy whale but I have all the diamond cards at least. Completely agree this is insane, I might be done with hearthstone again over this.
THIS IS UNFAIR HOW CAN PLAYERS GO UP 16K DUST. THEN CRAFT ANYTHING THEY WANT THEN PLAY RANKED. I DIDNâT SPEND MY DUST BECAUSE I DONâT WANT NEGATIVE DUST. I SPEND TO MUCH MONEY ON THIS GAME TO GET BENT LIKE THAT. THEY SHOULD TAKE BACK ALL DUST AND REWARD EVERYONE THE SAME. LETTING PEOPLE KEEP 16K DUST WORTH OF THINGS THEY CRAFTED OVER NIGHT IS BROKEN AND UNFAIR TO OTHERS. THEY HAVE A 16K DUST ADVANTAGE OVER PLAYERS WHO DID NOT ABUSE THIS. WHY SHOULD WE KEEP SPENDING MONEY ON HEARTHSTONE âŚ[quote=âJuRiOh-1146, post:1, topic:79519, full:trueâ]
Never listen to Blizzard

Blizzard made 1.6 billion last year they could have taken the loss and not felt it. If they are going to be greedy Iâll be greedy when they make mistakes.
The team couldnât fix Ignite mage in wild for months. But free dust goes to the players, and it takes two days. Shows where blizzard priorities are not just Hearthstone. Gameplay is bad who cares. We gave out free resources to players patch it now. Donât you feel silly defending a company that could use the good PR considering what has gone on.
lol. all this kinda reminds me of the Southpark episode, âMake Love Not Warcraftâ. I could imagine the execs in a room in a panic because with all the dust people would not have to spend money on packs and the like.
SortaâŚeven with all you said/wrote would only account for a small fraction of 1.6 billion. You know 1 billion dollars is a thousand million dollars, right? 1.6 thousand million dollars and you somehow think theyâre having trouble making payroll and rent, or somethin? I mean câmon now. And are you really gonna defend blizzard on this fiasco? Is that really who you are, and what your willing to accept?
Youâre either new to the Blizzard franchise or just ignorant.
Theyâre not going to give everyone hundreds of dollars worth of packs just because they hit the âoopsieâ button.
Theyâve never done it before and theyâre not going to start this year.
Even more so with the fact alone being theyâve only got a limited time before theyâre no longer the ones responsible for it and it becomes Microsoftâs headache.
Stop acting like people who disagree with you are âbatting for Blizzardâ when the truth is weâre just stating the facts provided to us with years of this leadership and business style.
Youâre wrong, youâre not getting your dust, get rekt.
Squandering months worth of player progression incorrectly because of the developersâ inability to properly ship and fix a problem IS serious matter. Wouldnât you think?
I mean I think Blizz should own it and just make sure everybody got the same amount.
