  • Sorry I am not a up on the technical stuff but dose this mean that the game and co-ops will no longer be able to be hacked? 

    I am referring to what happened to Victory Ridge and how someone had hacked into their coop, people's gold just started missing and the leaders paypal was also hacked.

    Will this http to https stop stuff like that from happening?

    @stef7 (US1) Not sure what you mean by hacking a coop or what hacking paypal has to do with BF at all, but BF data is stored on GGS servers & I haven`t heard anything about GGS being hacked. When people talk about someone getting access to their BF account, it always turns out to be either that they shared their password or they had a simple password that was easy to guess.

    You can Google the difference between http & hhtps, the latter encrypts communications between the browser & website.

    Rebalanced CNY event ..... booster costs 600K Farm$ per spin.  Anyone remember what it cost last year? I recall spinning a lot last year, but don't think it cost as much.

    You're lucky then, Lylu... it costs me $1million per spin!!  Not quite sure why it should be so much more for me, unless it's something to do with player levels? 


    edit; I'm not sure about player levels... a member of my co-op who is 84 levels below me still has to pay $1mill to spin :(

    What does TIME UNTIL NEXT CHALLENGE mean in right hand reward box...has timer.  Did we have first challenge?  In build the rooster.

    Thanks @Penfold (GB1)  but now I have completed for first reward, and now timer is still counting down but it is having me collect only rats or another set of rewards...so just guessing but that does not seems to be the challenging that is counting down.,
    Thx for ans though much appreciated

    @artistree (US1)  Hi :)  If I remember rightly from last year, there is a new 'activity challenge' every day.  Today's is to collect zodiac chips - of any type - tomorrow, it may be to collect a particular type, ie Rat, Dog, etc.  The countdown timer just shows how much time is left for the current daily 'activity challenge'. 
     Hope that helps :smile:

    Anyone know how many chips we have to collect in the 1st day?

    Also do I remeber right from last year you need to earn all the 20 rewards each day to get the complete deco?
  • Much more expensive to play the boosters than it was last year.  Won't be doing it.  Not worth it.

    @UserPkmwg1 (US1)   just out of curiosity, may I ask how many dollars it costs you to spin for a 'booster'?  Lylu on the International Server mentioned $600k, it's $1mill for me.

    ...and I'm sorry, Stef7, I didn't notice how many we had to collect, if indeed there is a specified amount; it just shows me the number I need to collect for the next 'reward'.
  • 600,000.  It was much cheaper last year.  I make only about 1-2 million a day so I need the money for other things.

    I have $600k as well. But whatever might be the cost spinning for a 'booster' it's not worth it, imo.

  • Penfold (GB1)Penfold (GB1) GB1 Posts: 252
    I'll be saving most of mine for other things too; I still have some expansions to do and things to upgrade - and the Viking Farm is eating dollars as though they're going out of fashion!

    I can't help but wonder why it's costing us an additional $400 for a booster on our server though - which is a HUGE percentage increase -  I  don't really want to moan, but it doesn't seem quite fair somehow!

    Much higher to spin for me than last year, too.  I won't be spinning anymore this year, that's for sure.  Whatever I end up with, I'll donate to Greta.  I do enjoy watching the colorful chips fly out, but I'll be farming as usual and not worry about the drop rates.
  • Penfold (GB1)Penfold (GB1) GB1 Posts: 252
    Quite right, magicpotions; if I end up with a rubbish rooster at the end of it, then it'll just be another one for Greta's skip when she next shows up, lol

    Spinning cost depends on level i think. For me  is 1kk (180lvl) ,one of my coop members cost is 600k but she is 122 lvl

    @ Tigrain (BG1)

    it might be a good explanation I'm level 125 and my
    spinning fee is 600k. So it's cheaper for a lower level.
    What a shocker... :D

    I think the cost of booster goes by level of game.  I have someone in my coop level 36 who is only paying 30,000 farm dollars for booster.

    My farm it is 1,000,000 but i am level 176
  • Penfold (GB1)Penfold (GB1) GB1 Posts: 252
    Thanks for the info, folks; I'm level 306, and my co-op member is level 222; so it does seem to be based on levels after all.  Ouch! ...Being 'high level' is no guarantee of having spare dollars!
  • gavinfarms (US1)gavinfarms (US1) US1 Posts: 2,273
    The boosters are ridiculously priced this year......5 times what they were last year.  I had written to my coop encouraging them to do this event, but these boosters are ridiculous.  And the boosters are needed to finish on time.  Hopefully it was meant to be 100,000 instead of 1,000,000, so hopefully it will be fixed ASAP.
  • ijrosh (US1)ijrosh (US1) US1 Posts: 1,325
    i am level 115 and i need 400k to spin but with the viking farm there is no way i will have that kind of spear money i thought it was only like 100k a spin last year
  • stef7 (US1)stef7 (US1) US1 Posts: 460
    Just a guess on this but maybe it is so high so that we have to use gold to buy cash to finish, or to use gold to spin. Either way it is a way to try to force us to use gold???

    I thought the anouncement said it was easier this year? But with the booster price multiplied ............ are you sure BF you really ment "easier"? Last year I used boosters a lot and finished all signs appart from two size reduction ones. Timing big harvests with boosters for fireworks makes a massive difference in progress. Still my last year deco is sitting in storage as I haven't bothered to place that useless 7x7 crap, but at least the event was sort of fun with reasoneably priced boosters. With the current booster price increase (600 k for me) I'd pay dozens of milions for worthless deco? I think this year's version will not be that much fun. Did the balancers remain faithfull to their bad reputation and blew it again. :) OK, will see how it goes without boosters. :)

    If I remember it well, each step has the same amount of chips, so find out the step count, multiply by 20 and you have your number (sorry, didn't remember my first step count to tell you, but it was something a bit over 500).

    Those 20 rewards are just daily thingy and have nothing to do with the final deco. You get the deco however much or little you do, just the size and hap value will differ based on your efforts. As to daily rewards it resets to zero every day so you will have 15 runs of 20 rewards starting from each game day zero time (see the bottom counter).
  • FIREWORKS!!!! Related image

    My boosters are $1,000,000 too and they only last for 12 harvests, so I shoulda harvested better things first doh!! ..... But fireworks rule! I got all the activity rewards for today and a cute pagoda deco, woohoo!! Image result for smiley jazz hands
  • Yea!!!!FIREWORKS!!!!  Will set things up for tomorrow and not harvest until I see those wonderful Blinky things

    It lasts 12 harvests only if you are lucky. If you are not, they may be for as little as one harvest. :) 1 mil for one harvest booster ............ and if you don't chose wisely it can make a huge difference of 3 extra chips............. lol

     .................

    Was there any pattern for fireworks last year or was it completely random? Anyone remembers?
  • I thought that they happened about every 50 minutes.  It was an odd time.  Not every hour but either around 50 minutes or 75 minutes.
