  • More notes about changes from Beeline:

"Hi Ghostbusters Community,

With the many changes we have made in this update, the value of the items in the game have changed as well. Rather than forcing players to hold onto items that may no longer be as valuable as they had been, we have chosen to reimburse players with Power Cores for any premium item purchases, and we have awarded bucks for any non-premium items. Players may now re-purchase any premium items they still would like to own.

Slime has changed significantly as well, and players will now receive as much Slime as they need to progress through game play. Players will no longer need to accumulate large amounts of slime; therefore the Slime quantities have been reset accordingly.

We hope this helps to answer many of your questions."
