    Easter Egg Locations:

    For those of you who like to build maps for your Co-Ops like we do, here's about 50 or so locations to get you started:

    Props to the Artist who did the egg hiding this time around, some of these locations are just plain sadistic to some of us color-blind folks. :)

    *Shuffles off to find some Excedrin*

    "Sadists" is what I've been muttering all evening.  And some of the eggs' colors seem to have been muted or hidden under translucent foliage.  I think I'm going to have to bag this one soon -- thanks for the maps, though.  They might just save me!  :)

    Did I miss an announcement?  I thought the Easter Egg Hunt would go into a new day about now.  Does this mean that the first day is actually 24 hours?  Does anyone know when the next day begins?

    Color me confused.

    Oh wow, it didn't flip.  Maybe they finally fixed it?

    The optimists says "yes."  The skeptic, however ...

    Heh.. I cursed that artist for hours. :)  Especially on those green eggs in green trees, or orange eggs in orange trees.. My old color-blind eyes just can't distinguish between the different hues.  :)

    Take a look at this, tell me where the egg is.

    There IS one, I promise. :tongue:

    I think I'm gonna need a LOOOOOT of alcohol over the next 9 days. :tongue:

    I saw that one at first glance. But if you really struggle with colour shades, that's what makes it hard. Also when you present a cut out and we know there is an egg it also makes it easier. :) I was surprised myself how well masked some eggs are. Even when they where not hidden behind anything the colour shading made them nearly invisible at first sight. So yes, eggs are bigger, but if the visibility is beter, I doubt that. I have the same amount of "missed" eggs after first casual search as usual. And if GG intentionaly lowered visibility as some above suggest, well that would be straight evil. But would not surprise me as it would be perfectly in line with known behaviour. Yes, we give you bigger eggs as you asked, but make them harder to see. :) Go figure. :)

    So much for making the eggs easier to see/find update....because you said you listened to us...geez...I haven't got all day to search for these "easier to find" eggs when the CCE is going on and the Fairy Tale event also.


    Give us a break GGS....don't take the fun & turn it into frustration. :/

    Interesting thought 0MrsB (US1), how many of us have lost to a non-co-op person during the CCE. I'm wondering how the numbers line up in that respect ???

    I play a lot of non co-op people & always take the time to explain the rewards they are missing out on & even offer an invitation just until the CCE is over, but they either don't answer or decline the invite.  Saying they are not interested in ever being in a co-op at this time. ( I'm thinking they had a bad experience).

    It could encourage them to join if they couldn't do missions at that time OR really get them mad !!  idk  :(

    They could & I don't know why they wouldn't start their own co-op & just keep it closed...this way they get it all!

    Excuse me @0MrsB (US1) @SANDRAUser60 (US1) but those not in a coop still need certificates, and still get a daily task to earn reputation.
    I chose not to be in a coop anymore after burnout from being a leader in one for 3 years (partly because of the coop championship), but I still enjoy missions from time to time. Saying that people not in a coop can't play missions during CC is like saying those in a coop can't play when there isn't a CC.

    And, it seems with the flash sale and WoF, we are back to buying RPs again.

    Please forgive me if you thought I meant you should not be allowed...I was only thinking out loud of what it means to everyone who plays that way.  AND like I said, YOU and the others who choose not to be in a co-op, all you would have to do (to get the reward) is create your own co-op and keep it closed !  BUT if you don't want the rewards....well that's up to you.

    I too have entertained the idea of going it alone ...it is a daunting task (at times) to be a leader.

    I think it costs gold to start a coop ( I could be wrong) and really the rewards are not that great at my level anyway. Fish bait? I don't fish. Seeds? Got tons. Collectibles? Not needed in a non-coop. Premium humus? I can make it myself. Sure there are a few treasure chests, but they mostly contain what I have just listed.
  • artful (US1)artful (US1) US1 Posts: 6,617
    My coop is perfect for non-coop people.  It's dwindled down to a handful, and no one is asked to do anything.  :)

    I went solo for about 6 months and started enjoying the game again when I was not in a coop. I am not a competitive person, and CC was never mandatory in my old coop. I have just joined a coop a few days ago, and so far it is going well. CC is not played unless you want to. I don't want to be a leader, just want to play my game.

    If ours disappears altogether, I may come a knockin'. :)

    Why flash sales is present in cc , it is spoiling the mission now , those coop that pay hard to win league , there all performace is going down due to gold user buying rps . It is good way to earn more money and showing no care about hard working layers .

    CC does not came at right time , if this happen in future , can ggs send some timer when cc ll start like the timer coming for hotfix ?

    This change to the CC is a really bad change,    The CC has now gone back to which coop can buy the most points.    It is no longer based on which coop can do the most work.        This is totally not fair.    Change it back to the way you had it before where there was no RP buying during the CC.      You say that you are listening to the farmers,   then please go back into your "memory banks" and remember the many protests that were written in forum about buying RP     Delete the flash sales of RP   IMMEDIATELY from the CC

    I used to love the egg hunt.  It was quite an exhausting chore for me yesterday.  I think I'll just do what I can quickly, then concentrate on the chocolates for the other deco.

    Exactly! ALL GGS care about is making money and running flash sales during the CC is one of many examples that shows they don't listen to their customers. I've encouraged my group not to cheat by buying reputation points and it may cost us a place in gold league but i'd rather fall out than lower myself to a level where prizes we win are done through an auction. Perfectly content with collecting a few thousand gold per CC playing fairly than buying an oversized dandy duck coop that produces a few more eggs per collect.....its eggs, i'll use seaweed if I want more of them :)
