The downtime today was for a hotfix .... more details on that HERE.
Most oktoberfest items cost a lot of money to fulfill contracts and do not make profit from selling.
In the coming Oktoberfests, the developers should use a profit chart with the oktoberfest items and increase the amount they sell for.
I don't want to spend millions of dollars worth of products for a few event rewards.
Also, the ingredient cost reduction from upgrades is only a little useful because it stops at 25% and lasts for 15 days.
Did I not say they would release subscriptions near the end of the month and charge full price for the month?
OH YEAH!!! Anything to get a few more gold spent from the harvester buttons!
And I take it that only those with powerful computers can actually play the game during the LAGGY Village Fair?
Oh how the bugs continue, and 100 bucks says this new update will make it so much worse!
All that's happening is people are giving up and leaving the game for good! LEARN HOW TO CODE!!!

No gold lock, no gold.
Now you want to introduce a way to automatically get recurring fees? For what?
YEARS later STILL no gold lock of any kind.
Bugs come out with each and every new thing, rewards not given etc etc....
Bugs that have not been fixed also going back YEARS.
MANY MANY players have said we would rather wait awhile with NO new events and such and let you fix the bugs. But no.... all you can do is come up with more ways to spend real cash. And not even good ones. You lost sight of what people did spend on. Now it's all about push this, compete in that.
This was never meant to be a competition type game. It's a balance game, grow, advance, upgrade, expand... NOT compete with other players. That can never be fair since some people have nothing else to do all day every day but sit on the computer. Some can play here and there, on and off, and some can only get on every few days or even once a week.
Some people gotta win no matter the cost. (GG's favorite I'm sure.)
Some (like me) are in this for fun and "winning" is not the be all of anything.
I look around at what I might want to spend gold on, and I have a very short list. So buying more and automatically like a bill? Oh hell no.
As we have explained before, the subscription begins on the day you purchase it. If you purchase on November 30th it will last one month, If you purchase it on December 1st it will last one month. If you purchase it on January 15th? Awww yeah, one month baby! The subscription is based on when you buy it, we don't say 'you have to buy on the 1st or you won't get the full value. It begins when you buy, it ends one month later, the date is not important in the slightest except for your own accounting.
Gold lock is in the works as we have announced and discussed in the forums. Yes, it's true we did not have a gold lock before, but it's also true it is actively being worked on. Not only that but the subscription isn't paid for by gold, so this is an unrelated topic and subscriptions won't affect your gold levels or spending. The subscription also is not required for the gold lock and this will be a general feature for all players. The subscription will be an easy to use, easy to choose method of getting some things you might want for you and your co-op. If it doesn't interest you then you can simply ignore it and carry on playing as you did before while those who are interested will do their thing too.
When does this update take place? before the CC and during the Village Fair or just during
the CC??
Can someone give me an answer?
@FastSylvia (NL1)
No, we can't. None of us know, and GGS hasn't (yet) said when the update it will be, only "sometime this week".
Unless they push it out again, then I'm gonna start feelin stabby.
Come on GGS get your act together and fix things who are broken and don,t add broken new things into the game
How do you think we are to play the oktoberfest with all its special crops, while a Village Fair is running? Or vice versa.....
As for the increase of numbers on the books : everyone that learned how to count, would know upfront that if the book amount come after a percentage booster , the total numbers drop. Since 50% of 10 is less than 50% of 12.
So I am glad for the "upgrade" but whoever does the numbers, should have known how it would pan out.

It is even worse than I thought.....they started the oktoberfest already. I feel sorry for those players that hate the event, but I feel more sorry for the pathetic company that tries to destroy the few enjoyable events by running them so often that most players get sick of it. A sad day today.....
The increment should never be in terms of numbers, it should always be in terms of percentage. Otherwise incremental contribution of handbooks to total production is drastically reduced when we use special seeds, or even humus. At present handbooks are most effective when we produce small-duration products again and again from as many as possible level-1 fields.
Secondly, there should be a handbook for dung production (or a laxative pill if you prefer).
Now what we see in the event calendar, it is actually replacing HWE, more specifically the Fishing HWE, which was most lucrative of all and worth toiling for.
The rationale behind this we can guess as always ......
# BTW I heard that the fundamental characteristics of a sound marketing strategy is that: The sellers' obvious mercenary motive should always be camouflaged by a pretension of eagerness to serve the customers better.
I wasn't aware of any issues with the Oktoberfest, please provide details of what's broken as we can't check anything when issues aren't stated.
Awesome to hear! Thanks for reporting back!
This has the issue of being very uncontrollable while a solidly stated number is much easier to build on top of. If we wanted to extend handbooks or add new boosts to the handbooks you have for example, a percentage boost would have wildly different results depending on the average harvest quantity of the product. With a solid number it's far easier to extend and work with because the result is always a known quantity so that we can give you guys a nice boost without taking the fun and challenge out of building up your farm and making progress too fast.
I've had that happen to me a couple of times, but I figured maybe I just "forgot" to fill him up.. Even though I was pretty sure I didn't. Forget, that is.
It's only happened a few times, but I've been keeping an eye out.
