i liked the island, but if it's gonna take as much dollars as before, i'm not gonna be able to do it...
Hope i can grow enough oranges to have enough shells for some new things.... or to buy seeds...
From Lattens official announcemet
Yes, there was a lot of feedback, but if i remember correct, no one wasn't asking for ranking list to the island.
Ranking could be good or not, but i was hoping that GGS had lower those huge prices instead of new decos and pig stables....
Please don't dissapoint me and give the tradehouse a few golden levels.
Of course not
It sounds wonderful and I, for one, cannot wait for our next trip to the island. Thank you for your work on rankings, new decorations and everything else. The riding stable is going to be lots and lots of fun . . . the anticipation continues to build . . .:D
Would really like to hear about the horses...before the island farm comes back...
Of course, the update is for the gold users primarily. That is because the gold users already did the island completely. They have no reason to do it again without a horse farm, or at least to do it as fully as they did before... This will get them to buy more gold to play the island again.
Though I know it will be along time for me to get the money to get anything good with the new updates, I don't begrudge them this update, since the gold users do pay for the game. They might as well get something good for the money they are spending.
This sounds like it has potential to be fun with the rewards along the way. I do like the thought of the island pig stys and houses and cowshed... But seriously, if having the island animal stalls on the farms, we need the Hawaii event soon to get tikis and such to go along with are island themed animal stalls (for those of us who like themed farms).
I know the island farm caused the Hawaii event to be skipped last time... Are we going to see it again before the island comes back? I still have players in my co-op who haven't got to see the Hawaii event yet, and they would really like too.
Looking forward to that spooky event we heard about earlier too! Decos for that look awesome!
not sure if u have checked deco tower yet or not, but dont look too much forward for the spooky event, the main prize is only +65 and 5x5 = useless
I didn't say they were good on happiness, just that they looked cool.
I would rather not play it every time.
I still have millions of shells....and bought hundreds of seeds of each before trader guy left.
now no seeds and lots of shells.
Fine, if there is a regular schedule....if there is, my bad!
I have no idea when trader guy comes back...and do NOT need to 'do' the island again this next time.
Whats the point of restricting buying seeds??
Why? It can be useless for you and me as high level players, but quite usefull for many others ))
I remember that birds house 4*4 with 40 happiness was a great gift before we got all new events )
I will skip the island farm next time. I enjoyed the diversion (the graphics were very nice) but it was way to expensive to just disappear. I believe Latten said the prices were not lowered, the island was just "balanced". I could have done at least 5 final upgrades on the main farm for the same money. I sure hope the horse stable is worth the tens of millions I spent for those seashells. Island themed animal stables sound interesting but sound like they will be hard to come by.
With all the proposed new deco, I will have trouble deciding what can actually fit on the farm space we have. If the special event deco has a significantly lower happiness value per square than what I currently have access to, it may not be worth the trouble. Just to work hard for it and have it sit in storage is no fun. I would like more garden themed deco myself, not sand castles.
All in all, after almost a year, I still like this game.
Happy Farming,

I'm disappointed with the 9-22 update being all about the Island. We want our Co-op tree moved back, or switch it with the library, TO HARD TO SEE WHEN IT IS AND IT'S IMPORTANT!!!! We need a button to send the ship back when WE ARE DONE WITH IT,FULL OR NOT!!! I KOW WHEN I HAVE FILLED UP ALL I CAN OR WANT TO AND THEN I WANT TO SEND IT ON IT'S WAY!! I want to see all my tractors too. The Island update info does not say anything about the high costs either!!! How about the Level 30 players, they can never afford the Island!! Even at Level 64 now, no way can I afford it. I think this update is WAY too premature and other things should have been addressed, like the horseshoes, horse ranch etc. first. The small decos are nice, but seem impossible to get unless GGS adjusts the costs greatly!
thats because then they can see on who they earn money on
yea but still... even oasis deco which can be easily bought with shells, worth 69 happiness in 5x5 comparison, so... i dont think this deco will be even much useful for low lvl players either.
That being said I do hope for more balancing as suggested to find less of an extreme to the island farm. I was able to almost finish the second set of goals last time and knew that since I am not maxed out on my other farms that I probably wouldn't finish the whole thing.
I think they know who they are getting their money from just want to get more from those chosen few. They'll probably have to make sure that certain people are unbanned from their farms as well so they buy some more gold even though they said they've had it with all the gold grabbing schemes. BP out
In all honesty I truly believe ggs doesn't have a clue what they are going to do next. The whole thing about certs for the garage, changing the ship to shoes, then the island with shells, and maybe someday a horse stable to use those in. It's not a complicated thing if your job is to come up with all this too mesh together, but as anyone can see none of it does. It started out with just the simple certificate thing, ok fine it took a couple weeks to get all the tractors, now what? Anyone who has all the tractors and still signs up for missions have tens of thousands of certs that serve absolutely no purpose anymore. Silly for me to think that the horse stable would actually show up before either 1) a shell trader between island events would or 2) the island event itself. It shows the idea was not completed from the start and is still in the process of being completed. Boy to be a fly on the wall in some of those meetings, if there are any. It makes it hard for moderators to give any truthful advice when nobody has a clue into what direction things are going. Not sure what you all have in store after the horse stable idea but im going to put in for a patent on an in game glue factory, but it usually takes quite some time for it to be approved, and nowadays many software patents are simply just being rejected because they are "obvious"
