Constructive Suggestions for Improving the Game

I think a lot of us get frustrated with various game issues from time to time (or maybe even more often), and yet we continue to play because basically, there are things about the game that we enjoy as well.  If there weren't more things we enjoy about the game than things that frustrate us, surely we wouldn't still be here.  

But nothing is perfect, and I feel there are ways for GGS to improve the game.  Here are a few of my ideas:

1. Implement a Test Server where any players who want to can try out planned additions or changes to the game before those changes go "live" on all servers.  I'm sure a lot of people would be happy to take part in the test server, and player feedback would identify potential problem areas that need to be fixed before the event is introduced on all servers.  Other games use test servers, why not here?  The Santa Event, the Candy Farm, the Video Ads and more - all of these could have benefited from advance testing and allowed GGS to avoid having frustrated angry players when things don't work right.

2.  Bring in new game features that add interest to the game.  Lately a lot of new game additions seem to be cosmetic - the skylines, new decos, snow on the farms.  While those things are fine, and no doubt some players really enjoy them, they do not make the game interesting to play.  Gameplay is what makes a game interesting or not.  Personally I really don't care about what the sky looks like in my game.  Here are a few ideas:

- We already have a bakery (which, with only 4 recipes, is woefully under-utilized), and we have collection events.  How about an event in which we collect various items around the farm and when we have collected enough,  we are able to make special recipes in the bakery or flower shop?  Examples:  collect ginger, combine with eggs, milk and wheat to make gingerbread; collect bayberry and combine with wax in the flower shop to make bayberry candles.  There could be seasonal items for special occasions such as hot cross buns for Easter.  There might even be recipes such as sunflower seed bread or gluten-free bread made from rice that would use some of those event seeds we currently have no use for except to grow and sell.

- Why not give us the ability to plant special plants in our fields, gardens and meadows during seasonal events?  For a limited time, we would be able to plant holly or berries on the FF, for example, and make wreaths in the Flower shop.  I think options like this would be fun.  

I know other players will have more ideas, these are just a few.  If anyone else wants to post ideas here in this thread, please do.  I don't know if GGS will ever act on them or not, but they're more likely to take notice if the ideas are posted than if they are not posted (I hope).  And please - this is not a thread for ranting about evil, bad GGS - let's keep it constructive.  Thank you.

  • I love your idea about seasonal flower & bakery items. I would like to be able to use roses, violets, sunflowers, etc. in the flower shop, since it already goes with the theme. It makes sense.
  • I think it would be cool to have a bank.  You could deposit money or gold and earn a certain percentage on it over time.  Different than the mine; no license required. 
  • I love your ideas, I hope that GGS takes these into consideration.  
  • Very well thought out and presented!

    I hope these ideas are given good consideration.
  • very great idea Pingo4. I like to add is the christmas list project is very interest project but i wish that they can add somewhere beside the donation button is how much inventory you currently have in order to know how much you donate at that time, you dont want to over donated so that it leave nothing for your farm to use, this way you see at a glance how much you put  in instead of keep going out to check in your inventory box and back to donate items. i dont know if the game developer read is or not as there no way you can check, maybe have area for this to notify the wish has been granted, would that be neat.
