Suggestion : New Character To Replace The Traders

RunsWivScissors (GB1)RunsWivScissors (GB1) GB1 Posts: 6,633
We all know by now that the "Island/Trader/Greenhouse/Ship/Ranch" event, has to be one of the more complicated elements of the game, especially for new players, so I have a suggestion to make at least one part of that chain a lot simpler..... Create a new character, with a permanent home in the farm enviroment, to replace the 3 Traders that we have so far (& potentially more to be added).

I can`t see any particular need for the Trader to come & go or for us to only be able to trade one item at a time, either we have shells/runestones/vouchers or we don`t, if we have them, why have a time limit on when we can trade them? It doesn`t add anything to the game other than frustration & complication. We would still only be able to supply the fruit that the ship asks for (depending on the current island farm) & we would still only be able to get more items to trade from the current island. It would also get rid of the excessive number of Benny incarnations. 8|

I don`t much mind what sort of character is created, the one that I had in mind was a type of old hag, living in a small witchy house (with a cat of course) or Gypsy woman in one of those cool wagons from the Candy farm & when you open it there is a different tab for each currency & she will take our shells, stones, vouchers in exchange for seeds & decos & custom houses at anytime. The character also has potential to be used for other purposes, maybe she has some use for the items she collects from us or possibly she makes potions, that she sells, or if GGS create some other products, she could be used to distrubute those or she could even have her own mini events..... Plus she would be a nice friend for Lester, he needs one, it might cheer him up! :love:

Anyhooo, the basic suggestion is to have a new permanent resident on our farms to replace 3 of the 5 Bennys, so feel free to add your suggestions as to what type of character you would like & any other variations, if you think it is a good idea. :thumbup:

    Great idea but if GGS do this changing, they will give a gold option to buy houses, decos etc.:S

    I doubt it, I think they would have done that already if it was planned. We have to get the temp farm currency to get anything related to those farms.... Though I have seen some seeds sneak onto a Hot Deal, so I guess we can never say never lol 8|

    Now wait a minute... some people have an active imagination and having 3 Benny's appear at once... uhh... never mind. :)

    Anyhoo... I do think a permanent trader position would be a good idea for the players, but I doubt GGS will go for it. :(

    Yeah! If Bennie was to build himself a shack to park the pickup in it would save him the cost of constantly having to change the paintjob and he would no longer need all those stupid disguises that don't really convince any of us! Perhaps keep his stock of decos to match the current Island but all the seeds all the time?

    GREAT idea, Sizzers. As it stands, I won't be visiting any of the temporary farms until they fix this.
  • It is a good idea - hope GGS will consider it.

    Great idea. I always thought making the seashell and runestones trader an event was cruel. If you missed it or forgot to stock up on seeds before they left you were stuck being unable to complete the ship.
