I would love to have an option to leave it and be able to go about my game and not have to worry about where my gold went. GGS doesn't want my dollars, I will go spend elsewhere.
Animosity aside, surely you recognize that sometimes people accidentally will hit the fast forward button to their own detriment? And if something like a gold lock would help a considerable number of people improve their gaming experience, how is that outweighed by the fact that you don't like some people whining?
Also, I was of the understanding the gold lock was optional, so you could still throw your gold around if you wanted to without the popup thingy.
This is a suggestions, praise and criticism section. And as such it's everyones right to express any problems they have with the game. So anyone venting because they lost valueable gold isn't whining. Would you like it if you dropped ketchup on your shirt and someone called you stupid for making a MISTAKE?
Oh almost forgot, spending more money on the game doesn't mean that you own the game. If you check, it still says GOOD GAME studios not goodfellas studios So what I'm basically saying is, everyone has a voice....... Don't be bothered when someone uses it...
Clearly you did not READ the suggestion here.
A small lock icon at the top of the game screen. By default would be OPEN!
So you would have to do nothing. Not one thing. The game would be exactly as it is.
But... for those who want it, with one click, would close the lock. Then if you tried to spend gold, a small pop up would appear saying go unlock your gold first.
Not a pop up every time. I can see that being annoying.
Not a lock you would have to fiddle with. Only those who want it would have to lock it every time.
So why is this such a problem for you?
I have played other online games with an equivalent games currency and they always prompt; the games never try to trick you.
At least they took away the speed up on a harvest through hovering with the mouse. I tried to upgrade a cowshed once and accidently clicked on the speed up for the harvest of the cowshed next to it. At least you actually have to actually click on the stable/field/building now to get that option so they've listened a bit.
Kat.
that way the gold users do nothing and the game stays the same for them....
BUT for me....one who has brought gold ant the start and used it and brought gold and accidentally lost it by clicking on rotate and hit fast forward by mistake. or when game was lagging and clicked twice and pooof.. gold gone...
So before i buy any gold no matter how good the deal....i want protection in place ...i want a gold lock or a use gold for this in place....
so u are loosing me and a large part of your potential market who want to buy gold but have lost it...this wont interfere at all with the big gold users...its for the small to middle people that want to support the game but have lost gold on stuff they had no intention of spending it on
So if you're going to refuse to buy gold that's fine, but just make sure that you're not doing it in any organized manner.
There's been a suggestion on our forum regarding the gold lock. Someone proposed to have a sort of bank deposit, separated from the inventory, and protected by a PIN code, in which to store your extra dollars and gold. That way, you can put away all your gold for safe-keeping and only take it out when you need it for upgrades and such; it would be an extra security measure for your account and another obstacle against hackers.
The bank deposit would have no other purpose than to keep your money; there would be no taxes or interest.
The PIN code could also be used as a safety measure when you demolish a building. I think it would be much better than a confirmation menu, in case someone gained access to your account.
I hope you guys like the ideas and that the development team will find them useful as well.
Well, I haven't thought of an actual building being placed in the village; just an extra slot in the inventory or something simple like that. I suppose they could add a building as well, if it's not too time consuming to design and implement, but a piggy bank would be enough for me.
Another use for pigs! ;D
I know another game that uses a security code thing which is optional. Once you unlock it, it is unlocked for the session. Particularly good to prevent the accidental spending of gold, but also, if added to demolition orders and even upgrades as well (a different code for each?), to stop malicious people who manage to get access to your computer or account. If a parent is a player and have kids wandering around, and they nip off to the loo or something, havoc and mayhem may have been created on ther farm by the time they get back.
I don't care what it's called. As long as that idea is put in place. Could be a lock, could be a cute little piggy bank. Could be a bank. Or a safe. Or a purse. Zip it shut, tape it, lock it, close it. Any of those, so someone can put gold into this game, lock it up so not to accidently blow it until they want to spend then simply unlock it and play as always.
I have been thinking my way around this one..and while this may not work for lower level players and for players that don't have a lot of game $$$ on their farms it will work for those on higher levels and those of us with alot of game $$$. so here goes.
This is what i am doing.
I keep an extra chicken coop on my farm that really is to serve no purpose but as a gold lock.
I build it up and tear it down...that is it that is my gold lock (also helps from accidentally demolishing things you dont want to demolish)...I choosehow much i want to build it up too. level 3 is usually the best only a few hours long so if architech comes calling its not to bad...then i rip it down again and begin the whole process over...
I have been doing this for like a week now and i have advised my coop to do the same today. hopefully this will help others now..hope it helps you too..Happy farming
I wish they would just fix this. By my fix until they do is simply not spend real money on this game.
Kinda like I won't get on a roller coaster with any loose money in my pockets. Can't lose it then.
I there are so many reasons right now to NOT buy gold.
very true but i am finding it helpful...and quite frankly am so fed up that GGs is not taking our request seriously...and finding their escuse lame...maybe not buying gold is the right option...all together..
