    never read such a crock in all my life

    bs from start to finish

    so ive built a fleet to supply an additional 'organic market'

    i loathe the original one and now i did all this crap just to nurse another one

    they cant be honest about it, just make crap up as they go along and think we're that dumb we believe their lies?

    The only thing that when you cannot sell the Chum or Fish directly is having a storage limit like we have on our farms !!!!

    But i don,t think GGS ill put that on the dockyard!!! 

    This means spending shiploads of $$$ to have your fishingfleet ready and no the ships can go to the scrapyards.

    Well done GGS, You listen to the Feedback of the players,Sorry i made a mistake. 

    More useless goodies like tokens,pr-feed and everything we don,t ask for. I m looking forwards to your next survey, It will blow your socks away ith all the GOOD(sarcasm) you ill get back. 

    Put in more competitions and take the fun away from the game even more. 

    Very stupìd,unthoughtfull idea,s you have in your mind bubbling round. 

    But i know it,as usual you will respond with the useless words. By the feedback of our players we hve made this change in the game. 

    Well be somebody and show here on the forum howmany players complained about the fishinmg game.

    Ho i know, you don,t sho that in public,because you are gonna be embarrased. 

    And sure you will use the famous words: We did not know it

    Happy farming everybody this game is over for me. 

    There are more normal farming games to play,also from a german game provider.
  • how do you manage to upset players on 27 servers all at the same time 

    give GGS a call they can do it  :)
  • This makes me mad. GGS has a huge cost on land, upgrading Lester's tree, Matilda's lab and the factories. That is what I used my deep sea money on. But I'm sure this took away from their gold revenue. 

    Way to ruin the game GGS. Why not lower your cost on things if you are going to take this way? 

    As far as making the game less rewarding - I feel the opposite. It made me want to play more and see progress.

    WOW another stupid decision By GGS
    1) Will this work as intended PROBABLY NOT it will probably require 3 hot fixes
    2) We can't Sell Fish or CHUM WHAT TOTAL BS!!! Than stop giving us crappy chum and fishing equipment as rewards
    3) We cant sell fish but you increase the fishing times WHAT BS AGAIN
    4) If your going to screw us over in the selling of deep sea fish than FIX the dang pricing on the labs treehouse matilda farm and the cost of the level 10 upgrades Seriously you take away the only way to make cash to upgrade them 
    I for one wont buy gold to do so anymore

    OH wait Dont forget it takes a half a day to make chum so your market orders will take over 2 weeks to do 

    DO you people think before you make changes
  • Corvid (GB1)Corvid (GB1) GB1 Posts: 625
    trawlers out for their last time sold everthing  lol

    trawlers will be demolished tomorrow at least i wont have to equip them anymore lol 


    happy hmmmm  fishing guys 

    when the dock yard was included they should have said 

    Guys were releasing this early but  its not finished market isnt done but when it is you wont be able to sell fish directly 
    that would have been too easy of course

    the back lash from this update will be huge i hope ggs have somewhere to hide

    why would they say that at release? there never was a market, this secondary 'organic market', meant to accompany the dockyard, it's just the bs they've come up with to take the dockyard money out of the game

    it just took them this long to come up with the lie, is all, so they're not even very good at that

    a five year old wouldve done a better job at finding some excuse that was more believable than this utter tripe they've spun


  • PCA (GB1)PCA (GB1) GB1 Posts: 839

    The entire announcement is one big lie

    Just as predicted no more cash for fish, GGS will pay in tokens and coins so we can happily click them away in the Casino game

    and of course GGS wants us to use gold to upgrade every building, from farm laboratory to village buildings, 100 upgrades each 

    what a farce ! GGS doing their worst as usual

    The possibility to directly sell chum and Deep Sea fish will be removed.
    The boat travelling times in the Deep Sea Fishing Region will be increased.

    With these two changes GG have just single-handedly killed the new Deep Sea Fishing feature in all its glory. I understand that sometimes "adjustments" are necessary, but this is much more than an adjustment.

    I have meanwhile spent over a THOUSAND MILLION farm dollars to built up my fleet, only to find it is useless. I now own 6 Trawlers, level 6 that can do what? Catch fish that you can't sell?

    Am I going to be compensated for that?  

    Yes please!!!  It is outrageous the way GG just changes and re-rearranges feature, AFTER people have spent a lot of money on it. That money was earned with a lot of work and the injection of a fair amount of gold coins, bought with hard currency.

    I am appalled.

    We see that that the GGS sees the the lack of balance in the presence of deep see fishing but can't see how hard it is to upgrade the laboratory. Right now it is possible to earn 100 million dollars a day by deep see fishing. Each laboratory takes about 100 billion dollars to get to level 100. So for each lab it takes 100 billion/100 million = 1000 days about 2.5 years to get to level 100. So for all the 3 labs on each farm, it takes 7.5 years. This is really long and discouraging.
    So if GGS is worried about the balance of the game, why doesn't it decrease the price of upgrades for labs, Matilda's academy and Lester's secret stash? I see everyone is disappointed when hearing about this horrible news. At least decrease the price of the lab.
    Thank you

    Exactly...for those who don't even play long hours it will take longer than 7.5 years for them to upgrade their lab, matilda and lester.

    @clinn (RO1) That's all very well for high level players with a fleet of trawlers, but doesn't apply for lower level players just starting out. I'm doing very well out of the deepsea fishing but have to gain 12 more farming levels to replace my skipjacks with trawlers, not sure if that's going to be worth it now.
    I've convinced a few coop members to start deep sea fishing and they are just getting to enjoy it.
    The few motorboats and runabouts they have is'nt going to pay for the necessary dockyard upgrades for them.
  • Corvid (GB1)Corvid (GB1) GB1 Posts: 625
    and i should add

    if they're talking about balance in the game

    take a big long fat stare at your lab, this multi billion dollar guzzling machine that with 'normal' play there is no way on earth anyone can upgrade it to major levels - what's the point of all these billions on billions of dollar levels? do tell us, cos we're clearly not intended to get there

    DO you people think before you make changes

    well i think its now time for us players to do a little bit of "rebalancing" of our own i am now " adjusting" my gold buying to zero now thats how to  do some game adjusting ;) lets play a new game " how fast can players reduce GGS's bank balance after all were just adjusting things a bit"

    that's a very nice rebalancing, maybe i will too adjust my cash to another game so it will be proper balanced.

    "The possibility to directly sell chum and Deep Sea fish will be removed". "The boat travelling times in the Deep Sea Fishing Region will be increased.".

    I will probably leave this game forever after this update comes tomorrow. Its not worth it anymore to spend my real life money and time on this game.

    the thing that i find most amusing of all, is the sexy new phrase GGS is spewing out goes along the lines of "adjustments described will aid in re-balancing the situation" - as if balance in the game is a major concern of theres...

    THIS from a mob who at the end of their new prime event introduced a Wheel of Fortune that could knock out points in minutes that would take weeks of play normally, and that isn't hyperbole,  to date it's the most unbalanced element of gaming (and a pretty dire one at that, it's basically casino brain dead level) i've ever had the misfortune to come up against from nintendo NES thru all console systems and pc

    so save the re-balancing bs, if you were interested in that you'd be re-balancing many elements of BF, it's just all the others would benefit the player from your ridiculous sense of game progression, where multi billions of dollars are required in a game that doesn't produce anywhere near that kind of economy for the player

    i wish they could see the middle of my right hand right now, and such a pretty finger just for them

    I am sooo happy ggs takes a GOOD look at rebalancing the game:

    -Significant decrease in temp farm costs
    -Significant decrease in csts for lab upgrades and mathilda
    -Increase the presence of archie and removal of its requirement one of the 2 last levels. Has someone calculated how many years it takes to upgrade a single farm even for someone that collect daily?
    -I am sure equipment and boats costs for the deep sea fishing will also be significantly reduced.
    -Can I say something about tree watering? Like this game is not crazy busy already...

     From the announcement "A delete button was added to Deep Sea fishing equipment"

    Finally after the last few events during which every player received piles of crew and equipment that people cannot use (wrong boats etc), now GGS gives us a button that allows us to trash the "prizes" we received for playing the event

    wow, how thoughtful and well "balanced" lol



  • well  look at  it this way we have plenty of nails for  big farm coffin cos thats the way this game is now heading
  • edited 15.08.2017
    update is due in approx 22 hours GGS still have time to "adjust" the price of the fish to a reasonable level 
    instead of a total no sell policy,

    and pigs can fly

    i appreciate that :) but these changes are far too  big, and i dont play the organic market and this new market is of no interest to me, i will be looking for a new game to play pretty soon
  • also i hope for players still wanting to do the dock yard that ALL the costs for equiping the boats have been reduced significantly to allow for the loss in value of the rewards from the market as i assume the rewards will be of a lesser value that the profits made from the selling of the fish direct? as we all know GGS have a habit of over pricing things like tokens

    Hey Pichu.

     The prizes are going to be money, token, event coins & mystery box(s) according to the announcement right? so the odds to get money as a prize is 1/4 which is low  :/

    P.S: I'm too a pokemon (Keldeo)  :D
    I just asked almost every contract will cash as a reward and additionally some other stuff :) (there are maybe 1-2 or 3 of them which dont have cash!)

    Cheers!

    can we still make 1.000.000.000 in 15 days? i think not.
    i will not be surprise if we will manage to make 5.000.000 in 30 days.
