Double XP weekends

ezio auditore3ezio auditore3 Posts: 2,399
Well, the title says it all :) But I'll still clarify a bit :) We can have one weekend every month or two months where you get double the XP you get for example if 10 bags of fertilizer give you 6 xp then the same amount of fert will give you 12 :) As always everyone's entitled to their opinion and everyone deserves respect regardless of their opinion :) Tell me what you think! :D

Enjoy your day, Ezio

    That sounds like a great idea ezio! That would help out a lot when you run out of the tasks that give a lot of XP.

    What about people who are unable to play on the weekends due to family or other personal commitments?

    Actually I agree with Jaystarr. If you are going to implement this why not make it an entire week, so everyone regardless of their availability gets a chance. You would definitely have to make it less frequent if it is an entire week.

    However, personally I don't really care about leveling up faster. I no longer have the high experience quests on the side but find I am still able to level up just by playing my normal way. I have more than enough things to keep me busy on my farm and don't really see how leveling up faster would help much, besides the gold received from it.

    I am in no rush and enjoy the pace of the game.

    An alternative would be to have some Double XP Day that doesn't necessarily fall on the weekend, but could be a random day or something. Or a week as ElizabethK says. It would be nice to get more than 10XP per pop when you're at the higher levels.

    But it would help the lower level players,and gives us players level 70plus a small boost,as you said the tasks on the left hand side are low EP now and just repeat themselfs.
    Playing your normal game only gives about 5-10k XP a week and now we need 6k plus each time to level up,So we get a boost and can forget about using 10 humus every day on fields lol.

    i like this idea especially if it could be a week long event, but only if we get to choose when it starts--otherwise it will be as frustrating as waiting on Steve. A full day of bonus xp-- gives me a smile. I would be super disappointed though if I have a weekend planned with my family or I get a VERY much unplanned and unwanted headache.

    Maybe once a month on a different day,IE like a full moon event double XP and the Charity drive for the Telescope.

    Yeah, I was thinking about if people had family stuff on the weekend. A lot of people play during the week but sometimes the weekends are quieter.

    That said, how would we collectively get to pick what day the event starts on?

    One other thing is that there are already some double XP-ish events, like the stupid "I crashed my van and now give me insane amounts of feed" thing where the reward is double XP for animals. And sometimes there's double XP for orchards but I think you have to buy that. So you'd also have to make the argument that this would be different from those ones.

    That is one thing that I REALLY do like about the vicky ventura and her van--that challenge is ready for US to start when we are ready for it, but that option is available for more than a day. That one makes no sense though if feed supply is super low. A lot can change in a few hours though with the feed supply. Timing is everything on that one to get full advantage of the additional xp.

    To answer some questions........

    1)Okay, the ''weekend'' thing might not be best suited so maybe it could in the general time period like when Eva stops by to find her bees because a lot of people are usually on for that.
    2)How is it different from the van wreck thing? Well for one it doesn't have a lame reward for donating much needed feed as it's just there and available to everyone.
    3)If you want to play the game at a normal level and you don't want the double xp thing then well I have no argument there since everyone's entitled to play their game at their own speed :)

    i am very much for that idea, even it lasts a week or a weekend, it would have to be regularly though. would like that one to come true

    But also that one is specific to ANIMAL XP, not XP across the board, which seems to be what Ezio is suggesting.

    I kinda think it won't happen--comparing this idea to the vicky ventura event--we give up ALOT of feed but only get 1 extra xp per animal harvest--which when pointed out in those threads related to that event amounts to maybe a few hundred xp. But this suggestion is that we get double xp on everything but not giving anything up? Or I vastly missed the point here on so many level? LOL

    Well, first of all this event also lets the people with out the feed for vicky level up faster and also like I said this doesn't have to be a 'every ten days' thing it can just be as rare as Steve but a bit longer :)

    Oh but I DO like the event idea--don't get me wrong, I just doubt that it would be a 'free' event.

    Oh I'm sorry! I didn't mean for it to sound like you didn't like the idea.......... You clearly do like the idea as you stated in the orevious post too. I was just stating why they should implement it :D

    I agree that a double EXP event would be very nice for a number of players and even players who are not in the race to the top levels. I also think Miss Monica is correct that the chances of this being a free event are very slim...if nothing else a donation of some kind will be needed. I still think it's a very good idea...but what do I know...I love Halloween and the free candy....but have to donate the Reese Peanut Butter Cups to my Dad! Be safe and hug your puppies and don't forget to feed them

    don't like this suggestion at all

    just handing out double XP on a random day or weekend just doesn't work unless you could choose to start it when it is most convenient to the player
    because if i would miss the window i would be seriously po (like the architect)

    i understand that people want to level up faster however i put in a lot of time to get where i am
    and i think it would only be fair if others put in the same time and effort as i and others did
    and if they don't want to do that then there is always the gold route

    but i doubt the devs will give a thumbs up to this idea as mentioned before there is the vicky event for extyra XP and the water tank thing for extra XP for orchards so handing it out for free .......hmmmm i think not.....

    Alright then what if it was done on special days like X-mas? That way it's rare enough for people who don't like it and it's also there for people who want it :)
