thank you Wabbit, testing this game is no longer part of my plans
sorry to tag you again, but I would like to know if GGS is planning to share with us how they will make sure that players get their rewards
For example in our case we did spend for 1 +10 hours cash and gold coop boosters for the first attempted coop HWE, which ended within a few minutes, and those boosters were wasted
Regarding the second coop HWE how will GGS deliver the final co op rewards:
will the players who left the coop after the end of HWE receive their hard earned prizes?
I would appreciate that the above receives some attention
@PCA (GB1) We haven`t been told about any compensations, just the missing rewards being credited, but its on my list of things to check on Monday. - The CHWE that only lasted for a few minutes, did pay out the rewards for the end of the event, so that may have been taken as compensation, but I will check & also find out what happens to the rewards for members that have switched coops.
Couldn't agree with you more Scarlet Howl, soooo tired, it will be a case for me/us " one two miss and few" I use to come here for rest and relaxation, now I go to work for that.
My concern is about the second reset when the line-up of crates were reset. I had Special Dandis with Super humus planted for the next crate in line and ended up not even getting Dandis at all the rest of the event. The reset also changed the current item I was working on causing a loss in points as well as the loss in points to wait to start a completely different crop. When you are up to 8pps plus bonus points and the crate suddenly changes with no warning and is replaced with a completely different crop with no time to prepare it really takes it's toll on your score, especially if you take a break from the computer thinking you have X amount of time. Two hours or so with no points rolling in is a HUGE setback.
I also want to mention, that when creating a new farm it is exactly the way it is currently on the test server. You get to level 19 within minutes now. It bothers me quite a bit that they wiped the old farms and everyone had to start from the very beginning with the tutorial and all. They give us VERY little gold and VERY little cash to even get it started and then they give several popups to buy gold. I honestly believe it was nothing but a push for gold. The sad part, I can tell by the specific deco given when buying gold that several people bought gold. And for what? to possibly have that account wiped too? If GGS wants people to test new events and such, they really should at least make it MUCH easier if it is necessary to start over. They should not be trying to sell gold at all on the test server.
Thanks for info about live servers, I didn't know they had changed that, its a long time since I started a farm there. It sounds like its almost impossible to be lower than level 19 now then, interesting.
This is in addition to the obvious bugs, already copiously outlined.
1. Too many products were added. The addition of rutabaga, alfalfa, and wheat, now means that field crops occur way too often. This cripples the whole farm. I would recommend removing at least two main farm field items. Preferably rutabaga and alfalfa.
2. For the same reasons on the gourmet farm (which supports less fields), I would remove Lamb's Lettuce from the line-up.
3. There needs to be a max number of bonus points that can be accrued. Over on the WW update announcement page, GGS is worried about fairness. how about having some fairness in this event. It was very fair in the past. It is hardly so, now.
4. As noted earlier, the GMLs must be reduced to something less than 3 million. The current target is absurd.
of course some may say it's down to tactics, choices etc to work around it or make it work for you
that is a point but personally i agree with gavin it unbalanced the hw considerably
I agree with the suggestion of removing some of the new crops, especially lamb lettuce and wheat, way too many crops in a row
As far as the "coop event" I don't see why we call it a coop event at all: true there is a coop ranking, but the rewards are not for the coop, except the ranking rewards won at the end, so I see no point in it
To make it a coop event, those 50 rewards should be changed to rewards that all coop members win and not rewards that single players win
I will not be putting extra money into this. As if there isn't enough to spend dollars and gold on. This stinks of greed.
And, once again, HOW IS IT POSSIBLE TO GET 102 POINTS PER SECOND for the top award, OR 24 POINTS PER SECOND FOR THE GML!!!
They did lower the points needed for GML, but still far too high.
LAME, like so much of this game is becoming.
I think that the calculations were done so as to give the total of the whole coop and not individual members of that coop. There were probably two or more versions played about with by the devs and the programming for the coop total was kept instead of individual members. There is no way I will ever obtain the 4,000,000+ points needed for the gml, and as for the top reward well I am afraid that my bank account has nowhere close to the amount of money I would need to spend on gold. To achieve 102pps would mean playing all day every day with no breaks, which is what leads me to believe the wrong programme coding was put in place.
Please tell me this isn't your intended final fix.....
I find it completely demoralizing and has killed my motivation to "work hard" and spend gold.....just sayin'
A gml is a highly coveted prize, though it costs less than $2 USD to buy that 2K gold.....and it costs BGS NOTHING to give them out occasionally...why bite the hand that feeds you???
In my level bracket (100-149) it appears only three players are on track to get to the 4 million points for a gml...
It shouldn't be easy, but it should not be unattainable to so many......
George left his nice glass of beet juice out in the sun too long...tastes sour to me
There is no prize for rank 4-10 for top ranking rewards. Please ask the devs to look at this.
Also, why would anyone want Harvest festival boxes Meadow flower boxes for rank 11-25 that includes NO VH and is only 30 H ... when there is ...
a GML for rank 26-50. This could hinder coop participation drastically.
Also, where are the WWC event points for individual hard work rewards? Only points available are for top players and top coops.
I think there should also be Co-op rewards along the way just like the CCs. With as many resources that are needed for this event, throwing us a few extra scraps shouldn't be a big deal.
Edited to change deco name.
On a lighter note, I usually make a million plus and actually take naps and sleep at night without gold. The prizes were fairly obtainable. Now the only thing I am interested in is the gold certificates. They are up in the 4 mil plus range now. Before they were at the 1,200,000 points. No point in my hurting myself to reach something I have to spend more money than I am going to make if I manage to reach that level. Sitting back and working the farms, and not going to worry about the new version. Hoping they will see the folly of their ways and correct what was working in the beginning. I refuse to buy gold and I am not able to live on this game day in and day out for hours and hours. Something I have attempted to do in the past, but you are making it easy for me to eventually jump ship. I have a few personal goal that no longer coincide with the goals of the game. Once I achieve those, I stop for the night no matter where the event stops or when. Once I reach my goals I stop.
Stop being so greedy and start making the game enjoyable. I know you have your pets. It showed recently when one group found their way out of the spot they normally hold and you turned everyone's world upside because they are big buyers of gold. No thought to those that took a hit when you put them back on top. I am happy you fixed their issue, do not get me wrong. it needed to be fixed. I had Jasmine running for another three hours and had started my next item showing in the next window in the HWE. When the game updated and the HWE event returned, Jasmine was still in the window but set at 0 hours running time. With no place to turn, in order to maintain my position and win my gifts, I paid gold to bypass and expected it to be paid back. Why should I have to regrow the same crop I had plenty of and plenty of time remaining in order to keep the HWE running. I was told they could not do for one person, yet they had just changed everything for one group. Hmmm. Have a nice day. Sorry I wrote a book. It is just how I felt and I needed to state my feelings.
I used to enjoy the challenge of the HWE. Trying to get to 1.2m and finish in the top 50 was difficult but achieveable.
However, the new Co-Op HWE is so ridiculously unachievable that I don't even bother trying anymore. The higher rewards are impossible to achieve without spending huge amounts of money/gold/resources to fill the funnel and get the bonus points.
With this and the continuously repetitive Co-op Championship events I am seriously considering leaving the game. I hope GGS removes some of these changes very soon.
Mr NUMBERS guy (or gal), PLEASE try and make things REALISTIC. You tweaked the machine to give us booster points to be able to make more points per second. Except then you changed the amounts to get the machine to overfill. WHY? Did you not realize that this totally defeats the purpose?
I don't mind spending gold, but I certainly do mind WASTING it.
