Pause boosts, when?

General Discussion

Today I opened 7 days of boosts from chests (kept only 6 of them tho), but I’m already running really low on internet, and I’m not sure how much longer will I be able to play. And I wouldn’t be able to recharge it very soon.
So yeah, why don’t we get the option to pause our boosts? That option should have a 1 week “cooldown”, so people can’t abuse it in ways that were not intended. But when a player gets a boost from pack, they may not want to activate it asap :stuck_out_tongue:
Well, yeah, allowing us to manually activate them may also solve the problem, but if you actually buy a 1 month, or 1 year pack, then pausing is the way to go.

Maybe if Activision sells off the Blizzard brand and IPs to an entity that supports a good product and then let the good money follow, instead of supporting a blatant cash grab upfront and the let the good backlash follow.

Ever since gem only items were introduced didn’t think people still bought boosts.

OP opening a boost does not translate that he bought one, more of “I found it in a lootbox”.

Never going to happen. It’s the whole reason why they sell different length stimpacks. You could’ve just shut down the game mid opening the chest if you didn’t want to activate your stim from chest. The chest and rewards would’ve remained the same the next time you opened it.

You can manually activate them.

When you open the boost, navigate away isntead of clicking accept on contents of lootbox. Then open the box again when you want to use it

I know I can delay their start, but the 1-st one I got, I actually wanted, so I accepted it. Then I got a +1 day, which I rerolled, cuz I already wasn’t sure if I can use it. And then I got a +3 days one, which I couldn’t reroll, cuz the chest also contained an epic item. And I couldn’t delay that one, cuz I want to open all the boxes I can before the xmas even ends, since I want that Stitches skin. So even if I did not open it, I would’ve still opened it eventually… it’s the same thing for me.

Making one of the only items in a loot box useful is not good for buisness.
