A seachange

A seachange in rewards?

The hw 'rewards' for the last cc and this current chwe are frankly laughable in quailty. In short, they are rubbish, utter rubbish.

These events are long, taxing and resource heavy and the rewards by definition (they are called 'hard worker' rewards afterall) are meant to reward the player for their hard work.

I ask any member of the team to come on this forum and defend these most miserable of 'rewards' - which is an oxymoron, cos they're more like a slap in the face rather than something in acknowledgement of your hard work.

Just to be crystal clear here on what reward means :- 

Noun - a thing given in recognition of service, effort, or achievement.

Verb - 1. Give something to (someone) in recognition of their services, efforts, or achievements, 2. Show one's appreciation of (an action or quality), 3. Receive what one deserves.

To cite some examples of this pitiful showing and what the team now view as 'what one deserves' for your hard work in the chwe we have:

800,000 - 190 cow feed

1,700,000 - (this is utterly gobsmacking) 40 wet pig feed (LOL, speechless.. almost)

3,900,000 - 5 humus

4,600,000 - (note, in place of the gold licences) 70 premium cow feed

18,000,000 - 750 goldfish pellets

and what is in between and above all those example are no better, back to front, it's extremely poor, to the point of insulting.

i've always maintained the makers of the game dont really play it, because they clearly dont know their own game, and it doesnt look like they monitor what players do either.

have you any idea how much wet pig feed gets sold off (at a loss of course) during any given cc? thousands upon thousands are sold off by players. it is not and never will be viewed as a reward, and if you played the game you'd know - but to put it at the level of nearly 2 million pts...... well, words fail me

Soooooooooo, too many words probably to get to the point, but, there's clearly been a seachange by the team (whether pressured from high or not, frankly, i dont care) and their view of hw rewards and what we can expect from now on.

I'm sure there are team meetings every week with the subject header of 'how can we generate more gold' - it's a business, we get it - but i dont care what model you use, when players just dont want to play anymore, it's not a good one.

Combine non-rewards with the very events that have for some time been highlighted as being too frequent (and the most taxing on players, to boot), and that my friends is a recipe for disaster. I know you think the bubble can't burst, but it can and it will with this downward spiral of player 'enjoyment' being remodelled out of the game.

But i have a feeling you wont get the point till the last one out shuts the door
