What is the point of missions

I am sure I read on the forum one of our wonderful CM's telling us that the missions were so players could interact with other players, so that a few players had something to do that kind of involved other players. So why do we get so many solo missions, I know the GGS excuses of how the missions are chosen etc but these do not work or even sound right when so many players are getting Solo missions. If it is solo you in theory have no mission, you have no other player to "beat" you have no other players to show that you are the better farmer at that moment. There is no rivalry and no trying to "get your own back" in a later mission, ( obviously a chance for gold to be used )  Throughout this weeks missions I am lucky if I have had an average of 1 NON SOLO mission per day. Also the amount of "repeated" crop missions has increased, on two days this week i had 4 dung missions after each other, and had egg mission 3 times on the trot a few times per day, luckily having solo's I had not harvested all my dung or eggs in the first mission.

    You already answered your own question:To entice players to use gold.

    EVERYTHING about this game is about how to entice us to buy & use gold.

    I thought the point of missions was to get certificates to upgrade farm machines. Once they are all fully upgraded, then there is no point apart from a few to run the machines.
    They added the coop challenge to give them back a purpose, which was potentially an awesome addition to the game, but unfortunately the overuse of that mission, the completey ridiculous ranking system & the solo mission problem, have all ruined the event now.

  • Good one MRG, but as I was trying to point out, not many will use Gold in a solo, unless they are obsessed with getting repo points. Going back to an old subject, the "fail Safe" for gold usage.. I notice when we do not complete events we get asked if we would like to buy with *** gold, If we say NO we then we get another pop up asking if we are sure we DO NOT want to buy it, strange that they do not put that "are you sure" on gold usage

    I want to agree with you a dozen times, Scissors.  The forum will only let me click once. :wink:

    A member of the co-op I'm in has had 78% solo missions since this past Monday.  There is something very wrong in that. 

    I have two machines that aren't fully, upgraded.  I don't care as I don't use them anyway.  I no longer do missions, except occasionally during a co-op championship but I'm also sick to the back teeth of those. :/

    All very true, but I will stick to my original statement, It is always about buying and using gold.
    They want us to play missions knowing there are lots of people who have an obsession of winning at all costs (GOLD) so they disguised missions as a means to upgrade garages, then as a way to win coop challenges. 
  • Im giving up on these missions, this week i think i have had just one mission with other people, my weekly score is about 90,000 instead of 500,000.. just put in 10,000 eggs in a solo, good job my co-op is doing scrambled.
  • Damn, my missions have now broke, it must be a GGS BUG, ive got a mission with somebody else. I am going to complain this is not right. 
  • I always open a mission even though all my machines have been maxed for ages an I have tons of Certificates.

    Why?  to help other players in the game.  Sometimes I end up with zero, since I just go about playing what I need, not to win a mission.  Most of the time, though, I can contribute to the total points in the mission and help those who need certificates or ribbons for machines or side tasks.  Doesn't cost me anything, and I enjoy helping.

    So please try it :)
