    The announcement said " If your progress on one of these objectives was e.g. 800/1000 eggs before the update, this will change to 800/250 after the update and you will finish the given task instantly."
    This isn't true.
    Our cooperative task needed 570,000 eggs. We had collected over 150,000 before the change. We should have 150,000 of 142,500. We don't. We've 40,000 of 142,500. We're feeling cheated.

    That statement was corrected today by Nafaru. So now the cheaters are cheated :-)

    sweet so hopefully nobody needs any cherries cause starting an event with start production of cherries like this you really can't afford to start them only to have the event pop up an hour later. You instantly lose half a day

    Our farms are still the same - is there something that I am missing in connection with the new update? The gourmet does not changed at all. Can anybody please help - WWW1 server.

    The asian event will start sometime this week.
    I can not give you any more information on that other than the date has been set already a while ago and it will happen.

    tnx for the very disappointing clarification.
    it starts at midnight CET then i guess. if not started at midday already

    p.s. this ruining schedule probably also means we losing Eva Apple mini event next week then also i guess... very bad time management.

    Well I am on level 6 required to collect 554000 eggs and you know what....? It is still 554000 after the update so for achievements you have to collect 4 times longer to get to the next achievement level. It is a pity they obviously missed this. I sure hope they will correct this soon because otherwise it will take a lifetime collecting eggs and you still will not reach level 10.

    level 6 achievement on eggs used to be over 2 million eggs, so it has changed

    wierd mine was level 5 and over 600k out of said 947200 and now is 160371 out of 238000 :) im glad its having me do the work makes it feel earned :) are you sure you were right on the # eggs you needed im level 5 and it was nearly double the # you said for level 6

    Then maybe I was mistaken about the original number of eggs required. But that would mean it was originally 2.216.000 eggs?

    I think the egg production is still a bit extreme: poor hens still popping 5o eggs every 13 minutes. I think it is a little more realistic though. I think the achievements are a little easier to meet now too.

    So the amount of eggs produced to the goal was reduced to 25% as well, not quite what we were told.

    Why is that?
    Books still increase what you get per production, in the same relation as before. Even more so, all values were rounded up, so you actually get more for the gold you spent than before.

    Everything has been quartered. Requirements for tasks, projects and achievements as well as the amount you produce and the bonus of the books you purchased. If you got e.g. 1% more produce with the books before, you now even get e.g. 1.1% with each book as it has been adjusted in accordance to all other changes.

    I'm not unhappy ) The effect of the books is even better then before.
    There should be no disadvantages for you after these changes.
    - And it's true ))

    I am not seeing the conspiracy theory in the egg update either. I can harvest more than 1 round of eggs before selling them off.

    Nice adjustment and no bugs <yet> xXfingersXx remain crossed of no bad bugs ;D

    For us its is definitely not the same...

    Let's count )
    Before
    Henhouse lvl 7 - 199 eggs + 95 from lvl 5 book = 294

    Now
    Henhouse lvl 7 - 50 eggs + 24 from lvl 5 book = 74 * 4 = 296

    It's 2 eggs more then before )
    And it's the same for all levels of coops and books, quite fair )

    I like this update. It makes much more sense this way.

    Any chance of making the same changes to pigs? These little sties really shouldn't be capable of producing up to 200 pigs every hour, and a whole free-range pig should be worth more than $9!

    And it wouldn't be a big deal since pigs don't get fed to the restaurant :-)

    Preparing for events has been too taxing lately because the start dates are so inconsistent that I can't even take a guess now what day it'll begin. ^-^''
    The old way of anywhere between Sunday and Tuesday was fine imo.

    I think the egg update is fine and I don't see a problem with it, OTHER than the fact that I see no point to it and time and resources would have been better used elsewhere. I think its fair but totally useless. Waste of staff time.

    I appreciate the reduction in Egg production and the fact that we don't have to empty our barns every 13 min, but what really angers me is again the goof up in information. First, we were told "Hey guys, be happy, your production will not be affected, meaning that after this update, if you have gathered 1/4 of the project, it will be completed." Fair enough. I instructed my team accordingly. Now in the middle of the night ( EST ), GGS decides to change it and now the production is reduced in the same way the requirement is.

    And they have the nerve to call it a "small inconvenience".

    WTG GGS, as usual.

    PS: My co-op can finish this project... no problem but ya know....

    Lakonia as well has been doing eggs per Game mods recommendation on Egg collection. So, its just another problem nobody is going to fix, is that correct? And I am to take the heat with all the members of My Co op? REALLY?!
