Tired of back to back same missions

SANDRAUser602SANDRAUser602 Posts: 131
I realize the missions are lacking people playing now, but the solution is not the same missions over and over, back to back....I'm getting to where I'm not doing them anymore or as soon as I log on I go ahead and start one because I know it will be one I don't want....so I then do all my sign on duties and wait....and wait.....

Someone suggested a SKIP BUTTON for MISSIONS, that would be nice or how about a CHOICE BUTTON, there are only 4 choices, then when the Challenge comes up, make it random again.

Just a thought

  • Once again we seem to be getting lots of repeated crop missions, I just had 4 missions running and 3 of them were the same crops. OK OK I know someone will come on with a lovely excuse or say they never get repeated ones. Yet since we got extra crops to complete the missions should not the possiblity of repeated missions be reduced lower than it was. Of course getting the same crop that you've just finished or shelved, your likely NOT to have any and therefore likely to use GOLD to speed up the harvest. It once again it appears GGS have "fiddled" with the selections through greed., and for heavens sake do not say it is random , that is the biggest pile of poo  on here, random generators lol  o:)   o:) taps foot slowly awaiting feedback from Scizzors

    Hey, at least it's not the repeated solo missions of the old days. :)  You remember those!

    Well i sign up for the whole C-C Wildflowers missions.It gives me something to do and they are good for the Rp-Points.

    But that is my opinion anyway.

    My daughter actually had a solo mission last night.  It was her first mission in the tournament and was for wildflowers - not many points gained from that one.
  • I almost got a solo, just 2 of us. but thankfully no solo's since they changed it  hmmmmm if they could change it would that mean that the solo's were intentional lol oh no GGS would never do anything like that

    Are the missions totally random? Or is there some set, predictable pattern in how they come up? 
  • They are random from what I've experienced over the time they have been running. Though it seems certain ones come per day, but not in any order.

    The missions are not so much random as equally parceled out.  Using the Stacker tractor, I've packed together as many as 38 missions in an hour and they ALWAYS turn out to be an equal amount of each mission type.  4 eggs, 4 milk, 4 dung, 4 alfalfa, etc., though not in any order.   So it appears to be random, but over even a short period of time, it's an equal split among the mission types.
  • it was not less not more than 24h waiting with my pigs 'gifted' not harvested waiting for a pig mission during last day of the CC!
    this is outrageous!!! let be honest ggs I work  in IT! you can reduce this timer to a humanly limit... let say 12h will be quiet acceptable!
    P.S.: exactly after CC end in the next minute I received a pig mission...
  • CM_HunterCM_Hunter Posts: 448
    Hey there! The missions you see are random and the game doesn't take into account when you have gifts available. If you want to get the most out of gifts I would recommend organising with your friends and co-op members when they add the gift so that you can use it more effectively and when you have a relevant mission. Best of luck in the next CC!

     Is something wrong with the missions tonight? I had 3 missions in a row tonight for collecting milk, shelved the third one and asked for a new mission. Guess what,
     milk again!
  • RookieLana8 (US1)RookieLana8 (US1) US1 Posts: 191
    My missions was so slow, I only had 2 pages shelved in a hour  :(
  • CM_HunterCM_Hunter Posts: 448
    Hey there! Did the missions issue clear up for you? Getting a better variety now?

    If not, can you let me know if you're playing HTML or Flash? You can tell me what the small button above the in-game clock says and that should help me to help you out a little if you are still having issues. Thanks!
  • Please Cm-Hunter spare me the lies of that random missions,the same as waiting 5 minutes for a mission while my coop-mate and me pushed on the same moment search for mission. she has harvested and shelved and found 2 new missions before i had my 3th ruta mission in a row.We all know that the big Gold throwers don,t have those problems as the cheap for free playing players. Honestly is a word what is clearly not written in the GGS dictionary. But that is my personal opinion. Learn to accept criticts and do something with those critics. The same with the HTML,that is not working properly on THIS game. Other games no problems. But when GGS not addapt the game to HTML5 and try to run the HTML4 game on the HTML5 system,everybody knows it won,t work good. You cannot use diesel in a electric car engine. Clear as can be

    I have double checked this with the development team and they have again confirmed the missions are random. Random is not the same as not having a repeat so your experience does not necessarily reveal the entire mechanism, just the part you've mentioned in your comment. BUT, what I am hearing from you is that you don't like to have repeated missions as opposed to random ones. I can bring this topic up with the team again if that's the case :)

    I am also not sure what you mean with the HTML4 part of your post, we started in Flash and have moved to HTML5, these both run on entirely separate systems and any issues are not related to trying to run one system on another's architecture. If you have some HTML feedback you can post it HERE for us but the diesel/petrol analogy doesn't quite apply in this case. If there's any way I can help clear up the confusion do let me know, happy to answer questions or help how I can!

    Finally, as you're new here, WELCOME! We love new members and thanks for joining us in the forums, but please be sure to read the community guidelines and ensure your criticism remains respectful :) The information I pass to the mods and to you guys directly is always correct to the best of my knowledge, I make mistakes (ask anybody around here, I'm sure they can tell you about the time I lifted the lid for a pee...) but it's never my intent to mislead you or anyone else.

    I don't mind the repeat field missions but thats because my farm is set up for them. There are lies being fed to us by GGS especially in the last year or two but I seriously doubt the randomness of missions is one of them. I do get repeat missions occasionally but its so minor I wouldn't consider it a problem. Give me 5 wildflower missions in a row and i'll give GGS a standing ovation   :p

    OK i agree but repeatingly ruta or milk missions is not a thing i can be happy about.  What conserning the WF i am 100% with you. At least it gives you something to do and the points are good.CM_Hunter said:

    Maybne not that new in the game :))))) Afterall 55months or more playing the game i think i know something more than you suspect. And what about the diesel and normal fuel it means you have to addapt both seperatly and don,t try to let run one on the others system. I do understand it takes some time before everything run good and i accept that. But the reputation about fixing problems is not that good or famous for GGS. that is all i like to say before getting a angry msg with threaths to be banned from the forum.  For the rest no comments but fix what is broken and leave the things that are running good alone,stay away from it

    This seems to be the root of the misunderstanding, we're not running the HTML version on the Flash version, they're two separate systems and don't work together at all. The HTML is a 'translation' from one language to another. This is why you are able to switch back and forth between Flash and HTML, because they are 2 separate systems. they are linked in that they take your account data from the same server as the Flash version but this isn't the cause of the current HTML issues. Those are mainly things that were 'lost in translation' you could say, and the team have to go in manually to find those areas and then make them work as they should. We'll be working on that in the coming weeks and have already repaired some major issues in the HTML version.

    how about changing the shelve-value so its possible to shelve within the first 10 min without having to use sw, sparkle, gold or using powerhouse.

    its kind of hopeless making upgrades to try to reach the shelve-value ... because it get higher after an upgrade.

    and about 'random'  ... you really need to check your random-generator ... something is very wrong ... all you need is turn on your stackmaster ... shelve every mission for an hour and then look at the list of your mission every 30 min.

    Dung, Da Da Da, Dunnnnnnnnnnnnng!  Usually how it goes for me, lol.
  • How many of you players are getting ticked off with the way missions are done ..Today again  4 hours on  3 straight dung   then a pig   then 4  yes 4 straight wildflowers .cant shelve  for another 6 hours as get 1x 8 hours  ..there is too much b.s. as it is   our farms, coops,  event crap  , tasks  .. goodgame has set the algorythyms in such way to screw players constantly to try to get your gold/ money  .. why would any player give these idiots anything when they have set things to say   we do not care or give a damn about you, your time .. a game is supposed to be fun,  relax   not this one  its about frustrating  you .
  • sue1 (AU1)sue1 (AU1) AU1 Posts: 193
    I have to agree with you tbone.  Getting the same missions over and over again ( milk and pigs for me)
     is boring and frustrating plus the endless crop missions when Oktoberfest is on and we are madly planting tomatoes and beets.  But I look at it this way...just another nail in the coffin of the CC.  Eventually everyone will get to the point where they can't be bothered and it will have to be revamped with better rewards or die a natural death.

    Agree i kept getting field missions over and over again, the latter hopefully sue.
