Is all this update nonsense a ploy to deliberately make players unhappy enough to drive them from the game so that you can trash this one as "unprofitable" and start a new one? I know it's happened before. If that's the case I don't know that you could give me enough game gold to compensate me for the time I've put into making my farm what it is. I know GGS wouldn't provide enough to rebuild my farm to its current state, and there's NO way to make up for the time I've put into it. I don't like the change. My hubby doesn't like the change. We've both put money into it, and if the game is discontinued we're going to be VERY vocal about how this situation has been mishandled. On the other hand, if the game's discontinued it would serve me right for ever being stupid enough to play another GGS game after the last GGS farm game I played suddenly disappeared.
But now they are not so happy (83%) and they demand higher wages, and I can not afford the huge increases in salary, so I see no other way than to make a lock out, tear decorations and houses down and sell the farm to the highest bidder
Google translate
very well put:) and wonderfully within gamespirit;)
Yeah, good advice. Let stop playing untill the rework of the 2nd farm is done. Because at this moment you earn almost nothing with the dropped happiness on all 3 farms.
And then when the rework is done.....we might just decide to never play again. I do not believe it anymore that investments made in the 2nd farm, will be returned to build it up in new style. Because promises done sofar, have not been kept. So why would they in future?
No comment, no harm intended.
Could please stop diverting the question of happiness to the GF revamping. You are clearly avoiding the subject and trying to change it. I'm sorry buddy, but you may talk about the GF all you want, that's fine, but stop avoiding talking about the MAIN topic of this thread which is The Change in Happiness Formula in an attempt to make Mass Production Farmers to revert to what GGS deems to be the "way the game should be played".
I hope you will not take this the wrong way and I am saying this with all due respect: But could you please stay on topic my friend and address it? You are OUR CM... OUR GO-TO Guy. We have no one else to ask the question to.
At least say you don't know or whatever but please address the 1000 posts in here from ppl that do love this game but are furious about the latest change.
I think GGS owes us a BIG explanation and unfortunately, you are the man on the front line making the bridge between high echelons of GGS and the player base.
Have a good night,

Just harvesting stuff isnt fun very fast.
I would like to once again remind here that give the statistics right plz about this subject, the number of posts does not represent number of "unhappy" players here either.
even i myself have about 100 posts in this thread i bet till now.
so don't go saying again, 1000 ppl and stuff like that, all ive seen here from start to now, is barely 200 players max, and about 1/5th of them are "happy" opinions not "unhappy" opinions
so barely let's say 160 players max?!
?(:rolleyes:8o
Your total number of posts till date 98 lol and 100 posts in this thread alone ?(
hehe statistics
I stand corrected, "freedom of speech about the updates for all players as long as its on subject and non personal against others or does not break any other rules of forum"
Agreed, so maybe we can now agree that a personal understanding of exactly how many is ok with the update and how many is not.. is actually off topic?
nope as long its referring to the "number of unhappy ppl about exactly this specific update" its not off-topic.
because if you say Latten at least respond to these "1000 unhappy players" that is false info about this update and related to this thread and subject and i'm free to also post my own opinion about it. ofc referring to Latten and other ggs members, not toward you guys.
This topic is about the update, not the number of people who like something or don't like something. Referring to the number of unhappy people (whatever that may be) is only relevant so long as it relates back to the update; surely discussing what that number is and who can do math or not and who is accurate or not is outside the scope of talking about the update.
10 people is too small a number, and not at all a scientific (random) sample. Similarly, counting the forum posts would not constitute a random sample. Given the amount of different people that have posted here, as well as the amount of interest this 'improvement' has generated, that there are more unhappy than happy people. (Ignoring neutral, silent etc).
Numbers of 80% unhappy is very likely overstated, but my gut feel is that saying more people are happy is also stretching it a bit.
These are the numbers from the GGS see this, thread another place in the forums.
So according to this, 15 % like it, and 85% dont like it to different degrees.
the total number of players that participated was 247.
Er, did you read my post? That's kind of why I said we've drifted into some weird metatopic discussion so I said I'd stop.
But to get back on topic, regardless of what you think of numbers, it's at least apparently clear that a considerably number of people have voiced their dissatisfaction at the update.
MY opinion: I do not like it for reasons stated in earlier posts.
A game starts up, and becomes popular, ppl pay to play, and the amount of ppl that play for free never becoems too much to handle.
Some time passes, how long depends on how much the game offers, but eventually ppl stop paying becauise they have bought all that there is to buy, income drops.
Gamedevs expected this ( they have done it before). So now is the time to change the rules, and make it look like big change and more fun is coming.. bomb ppl with goldoffers they cannot resist, lure them with carrots( images of stuff yet to come).
Then when that too is exhausted, and that doesnt take long, the game vanishes..
i may be wrong ofc, but this is a wellknown pattern
thank you, that is exactly what I'm saying too. so this sample is not a sample of all players. and does not represent "80% unhappy players" or "all unhappy players" or statements like that, to which i have only responded till now toward ggs to read and judge. and whether that is on-topic or not, is also for them to judge.
>why can't we have more farm implements, combines, hay balers, lets try to at least keep this a farm game
Should the number of complaints drop back to 2 or 3 a day, would life be all okay once more? Or would you only be able to tell at month end when you have an accurate idea of monthly sales volume?
The matter is not as simple as pure mathematics.
Enjoy!
