I think the new buildings look fine, but obviously some people very much don't like them. I can't even remember what they used to look like and don't feel as though I have been slighted in any way.
People its just a game. Not every thing iws downgraded in look. There are also some cool looks added. The level 5 house and the level 7 farm house are very good looking...
I also like my cow shed having place to stack straw on top similar to the hen house... No need to run for the fodder, we can take from the first floor and give them.
I also like the ladder attached to my level 4 silo...
The cost also doesnt seems too high.. its some gradual increase only when considering it with the availabel level.
At 59 you can make Rita salad and icecream and make tons of money... So the cost should not e the problem.
With level 48 itself I upgraded two houses when steve came in the first day without spending any gold. So i dont think so the money will be a problem at that level if you plan properly.
I like this update, I have completed more challenges and opened farms in other servers to have new challenges.,. .but with this i find challenge in all the account (thats one of the reason i am not into the forum much now).
I like this update.
a lot of people was upset me to,but its a game get over it.they are making it better.give it a chance.
Yes, God forbid you all be allowed to express your opionion if it differs from Jaystarrs!
Rest assured, he will take the time and energy to explain why it is wrong!
Concur w/ George!
Er, please point out anywhere in this thread where I have ever said anyone was wrong.
Also, I am female.
Also, this discussion was over two days ago.
Keep things polite. Do not use any more sarcasm.
Discuss issues. Express opinions. All opinions are valid. You do not have to agree with them and you can state an opposite opinion.
Do not discuss individuals.
A topic can be discussed days after the last post IF there is something worthwhile to say, something to add
And for the record, although that is my opinion, I don't know either of you so it might be a safe bet that others could have taken it in the same context as I did.
2) I do not care what gender, race, religious affiliation, etc. you are. It is a moot point and irrelative to my post.
3) This was not a discussion. This was a temper tantrum.
A discussion would have been more respectful.
4) To stay on topic, I don't like the graphics changes either, but I do like the update. For those people that are playing for aesthetic value, I can understand their resentment at the results of the latest update. I, however, am pleased at the prospect of having more product potential in my buildings. That doesn't mean that either stance is right or wrong. That's why it's an opinion
Cheers, Jaystarr2.
Hope you are enjoying your weekend.
As for Aimei's point, I agree, I know of no other virtual game environment which takes real money from people as they design their own environment and then changes it. I think GGS took a well calculated risk - sacrifice some for the benefit of the majority. Luckily, I'm in the majority.
I hadn't seen any reasons offered to justify the initial complaint, but there were a bunch of reasons provided to support the opposite position. So I was puzzled as why people still maintained that position in light of reasons to the contrary. Again, if I expressed that poorly or unclearly I apologize, but I still maintain my view that the reasons in favor of the update provided in this topic outweigh those against it.
No more discussion of who said what and especially how they said it. Any more post and this thread will close. No ifs. No buts
This thread is about
Still liking the update though:) Steve heard about my "to-do" list I think and is worried he won't have time for lunch hehe.
Imagining eventually skyscraper-like chicken coops that would be increasingly harder to fit anywhere because nothing behind them would be visible... So I'm glad they went this route in stead of just adding new floors on top of buildings that got new upgrade levels. :'3
I did noticed your recent post niryn, you pretty much shared a good point that I had also thought of too when I first noticed the new graphics
Again--Which buildings don't you like? What would you like instead? I can't even remember what they looked like before the update. Throwing a temper tantrum will not produce better buildings.
What you worked and paid for is a certain production facility which uses a certain amount of raw material and after a certain amount of time produces a certain amount of finished product.
None of that has changed. You still have the production capacity that you have worked and paid for.
All that has changed is that the graphic used to depict that production facility has in some cases been downgraded, for the reasons given in the official announcement. There is no point in demanding changes, because unless there is a very valid reason for doing so I can not see GGS reverting back to the old graphics.
So you really have 2 choices:
Spend more time and money upgrading the current buildings until you get the nice shiny graphics again;
or quit the game.
Your choice.
For those at higher levels it actually gives them more to do and adds interest back into the game instead of simply harvesting their farms and earning millions with nothing to spend it on.
And I don't have a hack, and have not bought any gold either - I'm quite willing to wait until I can afford the upgrades with my farm dollars.
Why do you not equally think that BobGamer paid for the building design displayed on the build menu at point of purchase ?
Do you accept that some people buy buildings for the way that they look ?
If the developers want to change the design of the graphics then... it looks like it looks - there is no choice.
If there were a choice in the game to pay money for the design that you want at each level, then I would add my weight to the complainers because I've paid for something and it has been changed, but as it stands I have paid for the production facility, but not the way it looks.
Don't get me wrong, I think it is great we'll be able to upgrade our buildings and get better production out of it, especially for high level players because now they have something new to achieve, but I do think GGS could have made the effort to give us some new graphics rather than just downgrade the look of our buildings. I know entry level facilities got new designs, but the new players aren't the ones who'll care because they don't know any different. It's players who'd already achieved a certain standard who now see their graphics rolled back and even though personally I don't find it a major issue, I can at least understand why some people are upset by it. People play the game for different reasons. You and I may just care about having the most productive farm, others care about having the prettiest farm. For the latter, the update is a blow. We shouldn't criticise them for being upset.
I agree - I can't decide what increases in production I get with each upgrade, I have to accept whatever the designers give me - but I do know that when I pay money for my upgrade then I will get a better in the output/time for that building, which in turn allows me to make more profit, which I can then use to improve more buildings - which is surely the point of the game.
And I'm not criticising anyone for being upset - I was not very happy when I saw the new designs myself - I'm just trying to point out that nobody has been 'robbed', the money spent upgrading has not been wasted, and this game does not suck simply because some graphics have changed.
Personally, I wish that GGS had taken some time to redesign all the graphics for each level of the affected buildings - it would have removed all the problems of 'My building has gone down a level', although the resulting graphics would probably have been of a 'lesser' building than the original, so there would still have been complaints.
Of course I accept that - that is the whole reason that this thread exists - but those buildings and the way the look are still available in the game. And yes, if those people now have to generate some more $ in order to upgrade those buildings to get them to how they used to look then that could be annoying, but surely that is the purpose of the game (not to be annoying, but to upgrade buildings
