Top of your screen, that options icon with the gears, click it, a long menu pops out, click it again to fold it back up. ALL the junk instantly goes away.
Unfortunately the blue stars if your using the lab still fly out every time you feed, plant, what ever. But at least all that nonsense when you harvest can be cleared fast.
But… hey, if they do it that would be awesome. I actually just blew an unknown amount looking to see how much longer some upgrade in the temp farm had…. clicked the wrong spot. POOF upgraded.
@PCA (GB1) A lot of people feel like you do, probably because, despite the warnings, it is very hard not to get attached to a farm that you have developed & with the boosters & free funds, many people had fun playing on the test server. But at the end of the day its is a test server. It would be easier for the team to wipe it out every time they add a new game version there, then give us boosters & funds to rebuild quickly, but that would soon get to be a real chore for the testers, so while they do try to add new things there without having to start over, if things go wrong & that is not possible, it would not make sense for them to spend their time"fixing" the test server, like they would a live one.
If I recall correctly, the incident that you are talking about, is when they wanted to test something urgently (I think it was the ending of the CHWE) but the test server had a completely different game version on it - It had one with the new coop chat system, so they just replaced it with the current live game version in order to do the test. You are correct that the version that was removed more than likely still exists, but as to whether or not it should be restored is another matter, because it is still a different version of the game & with subsequent game updates that have been done, it is so out of date now I can`t see it coming back. I also had a cool test farm & would love to see it back, but I would prefer the team spent their time fixing stuff on the live game & do whatever is needed to get the test server up & running quickly, even if that means losing my lovely farm...As long as they throw lots of goodies at me to build a new one of course hehe
I am not attached to the farm @WascallyWabbit, I claim the right to have it back because it is my property
It's not true those farms are there somewhere in a remote recess of the server, they have been deleted
When we spend gold, we aren't buying property that now belongs to us, we actually are just paying for entertainment.
If I bought gold to use it for something like an upgrade, and that upgrade didn't happen, of course I would expect the company to make it right. Everyone using the test servers was adequately warned. Test servers are like temp farms -- you can use all the gold you want, but at the end of the day, it's short lived and so is any money you put into it.
you have opened an account and that account is yours, your ID and your password, the game still exists so no reason that account should not exist
Think for comparison at your own email address, lets say a gmail address, and one day google closes it because it is not yours, its only a virtual place you can use to send and receive messages.
How would you like that ? Wouldn't you come to the conclusion google has scammed you ?
Just like anything on the Internet, nothing is permanent and can disappear at any time. Games, stores, mail, even IPs. None of it is "your property".
And, no, I wouldn't feel scammed if Google closed down and I couldn't access my e-mail if they warned me in advance that if I spent money, I might lose it, as the service was temporary and could disappear or change at any time without notice. Upset? Yes. Inconvenienced? Yes. Scammed. No.
What I do not understand is why they start the booster while you are offline, like in the goldfish event. Before they started them at the moment you logged on after the event ended, that is when they should credit all the rewards. As it stands currently I have lost the booster I do not know how many times, because it runs out before I log back in, which makes that prize completely useless. I'm was hoping for them to have address the issue already, but it seems they haven't, so I will not play any longer that goldfish event until I have heard that the booster is working properly. Otherwise, as is, it is just a waste of time and money.
We all should be able to decide when we want to use a booster. Period. Why do we have to bow down to them because they can't seem to get the fact we all want to play this game, and use what we have won fair and square when we want to? Online or not, boosters purchased or won fair and square should not begin until we decide they will begin. Maybe I want to save it for some event coming later? I just don't get your logic at all. Just because you are online doesn't mean you want to be online the entire time the booster is running at that particular time. As in what happened to me regarding mine I lost the use of the 2 hour orchard booster because I had just collected every single one of my orchards less than one hour before I opened that box. Not only that but a while back I purchased a 4 hour booster with lucky coins once right before I was going to bed. Little did I know that booster would start immediately and so my 9,000 lucky coins were a waste and I have never been able to recover them. I still do not get your logic here at all. I am not trying to be rude or anything but we are the ones playing this game, it's our farms, our gold, our extras we have won fair and square, we should be able to use them as we want to.
The reason why I'm against what you propose is because that would bring a lot of disadvantages to other players. While some boosters do no affect other players and it wouldn't really matter when they are started, some do, for example those that increase your production. People are already complaining for example about the cc being run right after the coop hwe, because all players of top 10 coops get half time production booster. This increases significantly the advantage of those players. Just imagine if players could save all their boosters to start whenever they wanted. There is already a certain unbalance (gap) between gold users and not gold users in the game. This would only increase that gap in most kind of events. And non to mention the gap between new users and seasoned ones, probably discouraging even further new users to keep going on the game.
That is my two cents.
Edit: Fixed typos.
That is how i think would be a option to go
Give them their own type of treasure box. I know this is possible since there are at least 3 already.
Just put all booster "prizes" in their own type of box so players know to only open those BEFORE harvesting everything.
Typically I log in and play first, then open any prizes or spin the wheel usually while waiting for shorter crops to harvest. So I agree that finding a booster just AFTER you got all your cows for example is a waste.
This could be a very easy fix to it.
Temp farms… WHY can't they be saved, and the next time it rolls around again you pick up where you left off? At least until you finish all the tasks… THEN it resets to the beginning.
They are SO BORING right now. Viking is running, 7 days left and it's obvious there is no way I'm even going to get through chapter 1. I never get to see the higher tasks let alone finish any. I simply have a life. I play this game two MAYBE three times a day. No way that's enough to ever make it through one of the temp farms. Most of the time I just ignore the thing. Only play it when I'm out of special seeds. And if not for the special seeds I wouldn't play them at all. Blew off the Architect twice at least this time around.
I know this can be done. You managed to save the test server in the past. Surely archiving our place in any given temp farm is not that difficult. I'd like to get to the end of them at least once.
Not to mention I sometimes accidently remove a decortaion when trying to harvest fast for Chinese New Year (CNY), Cooperative Challenge (CC), or Hard Worker (HW).
On the upside… I had also saved up a ton of chips for the wheel. I managed to notice my gold vanishing JUST at the 2000 mark. JUST enough for the blue mine cert.
I played and played….. no certs.
BUT… for the very first time since I signed up on this game years ago, I actually made it to gold level.
But… just checked this morning… I've slipped back into silver. Don't really want to keep playing it.
I have never actually finished in gold. Why start something new huh? Almost out of tokens now.
(Already have enough special flower seeds to choke a herd of horses. I don't use the darn things. And I could FILL my farm with gazebos…. GG really needs to put different prizes on this once in awhile.
Special seeds for the green house would be nice. But lavender? Sun flowers? Meh. Yawn.)
