    Well its only a few days into a 30 day event. I don't yet know what it is like.

    And I don't yet know how worthwhile the exotic seeds are. And I'm still bemused by the horse shoes and what the Paddock will do

    I currently have far to little experience of the Island and far too little knowledge of what comes after to even start to guess if I will work the Island next time it comes around

    Was typing my reaction, but samty beat me to it, and said it all. Totally agree with samty. We can't talk about things we do not have enough knowledge of yet.
    Although I would love to stroll around my beautiful island and her beaches forever 8) I simply can't answer your question yet.

    I like the new island, even if it is only a few days old.

    But will only play for sure on my skn farm on level 101 - the other is too low in level

    I love the Island, but I also love my money. So if you are going to give us a bag of gold I will play it again.

    Since I will be totally broke before I finish chapter one I have decided that I am not going to play the event again seeds or no seeds and ditto to horseshoes! Whatever I have when I run out of money is what I have. Hopefully I will have enuff shells to get some of the talked about seeds for the captain. Horse stable isn't even in my thoughts right now, just trying to get enuff grapes and peanuts for the lemurs and peacocks... they are eating me out of house and home!! It is a beautiful environment.. graphics are fabulous.... but it is a money pit... i have gone through over 6 million in farm cash in what 2 days!! rofl!!! It is a nice change of pace and I like it but from practical stand point too much money and gold for me!
    P.S. I like the bag of gold idea!!

    I totally agreed with all that roadrunnernm has stated here! After transferring so much money to island currency, I decided it was way too much money to spend on an island farm that is only going to be around for 30 days....just to build it up and have it all taken away after the 30 days. Plus, it doesn't even have the option of sustaining the island and growing it with what built there initially....or, have I missed something?

    I think you should ask this question again after the island event will finish :D
    you can get very different answers

    when i realized how much much money i spent, absolutely no way. It is a way to get us to go thru our bank for the main farm. An example is that if you tear down a structure they give you nothing in return no matter which one

    I completely agree with roadrunnernm and DB930. I love the island with all its updates and its nice for a change. I lost about 11mil in cash spending all on upgrading the island farm in 3 days. And keeping running costs going well is not always easy. Running costs can go extremely high at times. Don't get me wrong here. The island farm is awesome and horses,sandcastles and news seeds sound awesome. But it costs a tinge more than what a player would like, considering that he could have used that money to develop his other farms. So I love the idea behind the island farm, but the costs are a bit unbearable at the moment.

    I think i may play it again but I will not use any gold. I have spent over 20 000 gold already and i have not even got to book 2 yet. I have a very good cash flow so I hardly miss the $ buy shame and what about the small farms that have no cash flow. So i don't think we will see then again soon.
    Free gold you must be joking it will never happen so dream on roadrunnernm sorry i just had to say it!!!!

    no its a waste of money to me cause other thing need to be upgraded an you don't really get anything off of it
  • edited 14.08.2014
    Seems like I will have to continue to play the Island Farm in order to get shells. But next time I won't spend gold like I did on this one. I'll just play for shells as best I can and leave it at that.

    I applaud GGS for finding ways to add interest to the game, but the whole funding system for an area that isnt going to be a permanent feature of the game is just crazy. I stopped playing on the island after just 5 days. Id rather spend my hard earned money on my permanent farms that actually earn a profit so I can keep playing. Hopefully the horse barn area will be a regular past of the game and have an economic system that is more logical. Horsehoes showing up does not bode well for that hope :(

    I would if it were permanent but not for something I am losing money on. I traded a lot of my main farm money till I read everything would disappear. not doing anymore upgrades. I really like it, tho.

    I lost enough money for nothing in return...to spend money from main farm to Island & to upgrade which is cost a lots of money, no way , this is very, very expensive & I have to stay on line all day to make money?...this is not an entertainment game any more ... what was the reason to give us this game where we spend a lots of money & take it back in 30 days ?...no more upgrades tho

    If the greenhouse stuff would not be required for the ship I would play the Island again. I would have left the Island locked if I knew of this requirement so I could now still send out my ship after filling it with just 4 farm items and send it on it's way and not have to wait the extra time I now have to do.

    Its unfair, couldn't upgrading anything while having island farm too, its waste of money. Undecided what to spend on to upgrading stuffs when have other farms too couldn't afford with island farm, i would just leaving it for awhile. Dislike exchange dollars but its rate of bonus which is good. sometime does difficult save up dollars back up again.
