Candy Crush Issues Reports

  The new boss of Xbox took one of its biggest games and put it on PlayStation, the console its arch-rival sells. It sounds like a mistake. Instead, it became the best-selling new game on PlayStation last year and has passed 5 million copies, beating Sony's own new games. That single move tells you what Asha Sharma is really doing. She took over Xbox in February 2026, after Phil Spencer, who had run it for years, retired. At Bloomberg's tech conference this week, an interviewer asked what winning would look like by 2030. Her answer was blunt: the number one gaming and entertainment company in the world. Xbox is not there yet. She even called the business "not in a healthy spot," with sales falling in four of the last six quarters. So she stopped trying to win the old fight. For decades, consoles worked one way: you keep your best games locked to your own machine, so people have to buy it to play them. Sony does this better than anyone, selling close to three PlayStations for every Xbox. Sharma looked at those odds and walked away. Now she sells Xbox's games to the people who already bought a PlayStation, and last year Forza, Doom, Indiana Jones, and a stack of others showed up on Sony's console. A 70 dollar game brings in the same 70 dollars no matter whose machine you play it on. The bigger prize is reach. A few years back, Microsoft paid 75.4 billion dollars for the company behind Call of Duty and Candy Crush, the most expensive deal gaming has ever seen. Candy Crush alone has more than 200 million players a month, most of them on their phones, not on an Xbox. Count every phone, PC, console, and TV, and a Microsoft game now reaches over 500 million people a month. Sony's online network reaches 132 million. Her other moves point the same way. She cut the price of Game Pass, the monthly games subscription that works like Netflix, after admitting last year's price jump had chased people off. Sign-ups started climbing again. She scrapped an Xbox AI assistant because players did not want it and it solved no real problem. And she revealed the next Xbox, a machine built to play both Xbox games and PC games. None of this is a sure thing. The chips Xbox needs keep getting pricier instead of cheaper, because the AI boom is buying them up, and Sony still crushes Xbox on console sales. What Sharma has done is change the scoreboard. She is racing to reach the most players on every device that exists, and by that count, Xbox already sits near the top.

  @UmberHouse @Sir_Dammed Yes, *I* make it a quality issue. The whole problem, at its core, is a quality issue. Anyone can eat cheap fast food, that doesn't make everyone a gourmet. Just like anyone can play candy crush and that doesn't make them gamers

  @GrageDustin Genuinely curious to hear how this is the result of a staffing problem? Do we want an officer on every street corner playing candy crush most of the time? We do need more staffing for other purposes but IMO if the force was at full capacity it's not going to stop these incidents.

  @shaunmeasom @ClashofClans What an L take, nerfs are to make everyone happy. Just because you like to abuse broken stuffs, that doesn't mean everyone feels the same. If you don't like to use some braincell to play this game, you have candy crush on the playstore.

  @MR3Dev It's because dev teams are bloated with a bunch of fake girl boss jobs for non-gamers. Because so many devs now are non-gamers, they can't compete in the arena of ideas regarding design and gameplay. Cause the only game they ever played was Candy Crush. So they instead focus on every possible thing possible EXCEPT gameplay because they don't understand it. This is why we get such a push for accessibility. "Blind people aren't competitive in our racing game, how can we solve this?" Or "some people have anxiety, how do we make it easier for them to complete all the achievements, too?" These non-gaming girl bosses scour the internet looking for feedback and complaints they can champion like they're feeding the poor or saving the world. This is why we end up with 15 page options screens, because a girl boss found the one person n the world who has a specific edge case issue and so she advocated for an obscure option until real devs finally gave in to shut her up. Or maybe you're making a card game, but non-gaming girl bosses like Anita Sarkeesian demand you add a "phobia mode" for people who might be triggered by the names of certain cards. When you're trying to ship a game and you're carry 30-50% of a dev team focused on everything EXCEPT the gameplay experience itself, you can start to understand why games are so ******* expensive to make.

  Zohran’s admin has done zilch for my neighborhood. Public services are the same: buses are slow/infrequent, park issues not fixed, trash everywhere, cops play candy crush, poor and homeless people remain unhelped. If you think these PR stunts matter, you are truly a muppet.

  it's like seeing someone you know crash out from **** years ago, and now after intervention, every six weeks they have a new addiction (did you hear about candy crush?) and they just can't quite get it together.

  Meta charges you up to 4x more per impression on Audience Network placements that convert at near-zero And the toggle to turn them off is buried 3 menus deep in ad set settings When you launch a Meta ad it runs on 4 placements by default: Facebook Feed, Instagram Feed, Stories/Reels, and Audience Network. You probably know about the first 3. The 4th is where Meta sends your ad to random apps and websites to fill cheap inventory Audience Network CPMs are cheap. $1-3. That looks good in your dashboard. The problem: conversion rates on Audience Network are near-zero for ecom because the "viewer" is playing a mobile game and your ad is a banner they accidentally tapped trying to close it. The click was accidental. She didn't want your product. She wanted to get back to Candy Crush Your ad dashboard shows a blended CPM across all placements. The $6 CPM you see is actually $14 on Facebook Feed (where people buy) and $2 on Audience Network (where nobody buys). Meta blends them to make the number look good. Your real cost to reach a buyer is $14. You think it's $6 The fix: - go to ad set level - click "Placements" - switch from "Advantage+ Placements" to "Manual Placements" - uncheck "Audience Network" entirely - while you're there uncheck "Messenger" too (same problem, different placement) Your CPM will "increase" on the dashboard because you removed the cheap garbage placements. Your cost per PURCHASE will decrease because every impression now goes to a placement where people actually buy things One operator turned off Audience Network and Messenger. Dashboard CPM went from $8 to $13. Cost per purchase went from $22 to $14. He was paying $22 per customer while Meta showed him an $8 CPM that included thousands of accidental taps from people playing mobile games Meta defaults to all placements because Meta gets paid per impression regardless of whether it converts. The more placements your ad runs on the more impressions Meta sells. Their incentive is volume. Your incentive is conversions. These are different goals. The default setting serves their goal not yours 3 clicks deep in your ad settings. 2 minutes. Your cost per purchase drops and your dashboard finally shows real numbers instead of blended fiction

  @The_Epic_Mike they really think candy crush and farmville makes them gamers the problem is that the development companies believe this too they think they can convert the candy crush crowd to AAA games, which is just pure insanity I know zero women who own a PS5 or Xbox, zero, none

  @spencerpratt I’m ok with my taxes helping the working class instead of being used for NYPD lawsuits / more cops to sit around and play candy crush
