Main farm +354, running cost= -84%
Gourmet +374, running cost = -85%
Flower +196, running cost = -75%
Those are very, very significant drops. It seems that to get back to as close to -100% running cost, we have only two options: either delete buildings and replace them with decors, or replace existing decors with existing higher quality ones. But according to RulerWirehair1, an increase in +24 happiness gives out only 1% improvement in running cost, so it's certain that new decos with even higher happiness levels will soon be introduced. And it will definitely be mostly gold-based.
but since it cannot be explained well, by reaalism standards.. its not a factor at all.. i see...
Actually i dont see at all tbh. Either a game is a game with its own adapted rules, or it is realistic ( or as close to as possible). Either way you cannot defend and adapted games rulechange with realism if its not apparent in the rest of teh game.. and vice versa.. if a game is realistic.. you cannot defend it having totally nonrealistic aspects can you?
Unless ofc... you change the rules during the game.. leaving players at a loss or at a huge disadvantage, no matter the game
In real life all the shops have to listen to their client's complaints - the client is always right. I agree with you, I will collect my daily bonus, help with coop projects and don't worry to play any longer if I am unhappy to do so.
This update made more than 80% players unhappy, but GGS does not adhere to their complaints. What will happen if this update stays any longer? A lot of players will leave the game and GGS's income with decrease magnificently. Why did they do not a survey to each player's private message box BEFORE this ridiculous update?
Sorry, but I am one of those that are very unhappy and did not enjoy farming anymore. Maybe I have to look for something else, but surely it won't be a GGS game.
i just now woke up to log back in after the update and i guess i must still be sleeping and in the middle of a nightmare?
my running costs went from -91% to -79% in the blink of an eye (main farm)!!!
not awake enough to produce anything and check actual costs yet...but wow!!
just seeing it go from -91% to -79% is scary enough..:(
and in my mind.....i have lots of decos there, for my workers to look at........
all farms:
main went from -91% to -79%
gourmet went from -80% to -73%
flower went from -98% to -82%
note: main farm does NOT currently look like it normally does (before the Asian event started) because i had to add 3 extra pigsties to get thru task 5 on the Farm Specialist level!
Before -100% and now -84% (?!)
some running cost:
cherry 0 and now 1424
Apple 0 and now 499
cow 0 and now 186
mill
wheat 0 and now 300
silo
before 0 and now 209
composter
before 0 and now 60
field
now for wheat 533
So do not tell this is a low impact update.....
And this is only on main farm (the loss of money)..
All i worked hard is now in vain.....
This version was supposed to be more about keeping players satisfied and fingers out of the coin purse.
Any of this sounding familiar?
People learn from their mistakes right?
You are right, i will take your advice:) thank you:)
we're still going through and forwarding all of your feedback.
A small heads-up for those who think about changing to "no deco"-farms as a consequence to this update now, please be aware of the fact that second farm changes are just around the corner.
The new gourmet farm will focus a bit less on pure production for net earnings, but some more on producing actual goods you will be able to use on other farms as well (humus, fertilizer, dung).
Obviously we want you to experiment to see what you feel works best for you, but please do consider that if you now change your playstyle, you might have to change it again when the gourmet farm update occurs, which is going to be really soon. If you swap to find something that works now, it may not be the best setup in a few weeks time and you might notice some changes to the amount of cash you earn after the second farm rework. We would recommend that you wait for the rework before making any major changes to your farm.
Regards,
Steffi
Everything is ruined!! I am so utterly dissapointed a person can be!!
I will shut my farm down and play at another gamesite that is for sure...
what am i being rewarded tell me so that know too xD
you guys with your prophecies have gone too far in your head, I'm a normal player like you guys nothing else, ask ggs company directly and see xD
second i said it before you are not seeing whole picture this change is also related to gourmet revamp, which is hopefully soon(or latten said so at least, dont blame me if it wasn't xD)
and i mentioned it before and i mention again, my words here are not for those "who threatened ggs to quit if anything changes xD" my words are jsut for those who are still playing and looking forward to new changes. if you're too upset or idk whatever, go quit that's 100% non of my business at all, but if you're still playing just realize how more challenging this game is becoming and enjoy it.
p.s. @ Nafaru and Latten: I'd like some rewards it seems plz since others already assumed i've gotten some it won't hurt anyway right? xD
Hope not the few to write in this thread reprenenter 80% of the players :-) nobody could Producer at 0 cost, no need to take advantage of not having some dekurationer
Sry in advance.. i just cannot resist..
Yes i am quitting, lol.. but i would appreciate if you didnt try to get into my head, trust me.. you would get lost so fast, besides im a psychic... and im not intruding in your head:P
And the whole picture is:
GGS starts a farmgame, pushes the goldselling as far as it goes and finally closes the game down. Then they do THE SAME THING AGAIN. That game closed too.. due to customers leaving.
Rinse and repeat.. they are doing it.. again.
Yes it is realistic, very realistic, do the same over and over, and you get the same result.
Or as Einstein put it.. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expect to get different results.
This game is dead.
that happens to all online games not this one, and im not gonna explain why it happens really(cause you're a psychic but i'm a businessman). but i do feel sympathy for you if you thought this game is lasting forever and spent lots of money on it with that thought.
Eye caps?.......
Please do not feel sympathy for me... id prefer if you didnt feel anything as far as im concerned:)
other than that... ill refer to what Trippel2 said:)
thank you for the interesting exchange of words Griffith, i wish you good luck in your life and gaming:)
exactly one out of 17 is unhappy in our co-op. so idk where this 80% exact statistics here came from either and why these guys are so sure of themselves that they are the only ones running this business too. xD
I wish you the same too and to all other ppl who think im a secret agent or sth too xD
p.s. just because the ppl who are satisfied with these changes are not bothering to come say thanks here, that does not mean the majority of complainers here are majority of players. seeing how you guys can't even take another player being positive about this and thinking of him as a secret agent of ggs company or sth, i do understand why my co-op mates tell me be careful there on forums xD
Its actually a brilliant business plan!!! not so brilliant for the consumers...
sadly true and i agree. but it goes for all online games i've seen so far. not this one only...
1st
And who are you to say that is less than 80% of unhappy players?!
The other player have all the right to express what he feels or thinks!
But you have no right to comment like that!... Say your opinion and not mess with others!
What you are doing is wrong!
If no moderator says i`ll say, and not afraid of being kicked of!...
you're the one who getting it the wrong way, i just expressed my own opinion on this board, but soon the negative types started swarming me and offending me even going too far in their head that i'm a secret agent or sth and being rewarded lol, go figure why other players that are happy with changes don't come here posting anything.
Having about 14% running costs extra on the gourmet farm and the flower farm I call very significant.
On the www farm I put 13 deco's back on to get to running cost +418. Besides this taking up very much space it also looks very messy and ugly. I think it looks neat and tidy without the deco's.
As to the achievements: I couldn't care less, it has no contribution to gameplay at all. I ddn't even look at what was added.
So overall I am not happy, but it is not going to change the way I play this game. I wasn't buying gold because of the missing "goldlock" anyways. But when my farmdollars are all spent I will be laeaving this game.
I am really NOT looking forward to the change in the gourmet farm either. It means I will have to rebuild it. And I liked it the way it is now.
Clear as water!.....
exactly...
