I'm reserving judgement on this event until it gets well under way. I recognize it's geared to mid to high level farmers in regard to the horrendous amounts of donations needed, and I can live with that, EXCEPT. Except that to get the final giver for the Candy CR, you must first complete two steps requiring substantial donations of animals and goods before gaining access to Cupcake Surprise. I was pleased with the first 3 Candy givers, as they were available at the start of the events at levels even new farms could complete, including my "mini me" farm. The last giver was a little more difficult, but will remain in the farm coin shop for a while so there's still hope to get that for smaller/newer farms. However, this final giver is almost impossible for newer farmers to obtain unless they happen to know how to make CCs to buy the necessary animals/products to complete the first 2 steps. And I hate to think it won't be available for trade in future G&Ts. I'm fortunate to have learned how to make a CC here and there from my first 2 farms so was able to buy what I needed even tho it cost most of my baby farm's CCs, but what of those who are still learning the game and already invested the CCs to buy the CR (no cheap date there, either) with the hope of being able to get it up and running once they manage to open the clouds? It just seems to me it would have been much more considerate that Cupcake Surprise be available as a first step rather than a difficult-to-achieve third step.

 

Have completed Photo One and that is all I am doing in this event ...only did this to finish the candy row and get the tree
The rest doesn't bother me
The rewards are not great for the amount wanted from my barn.... that has taken me years to build up..... Sorry but I am NOT about to give it up for these pitiful Rewards

And I wont be doing Baby DOOMER ...that's another waste of my time and PF in my book...the skips are NON existent...in all the time I have been playing this game ...If i have had one skip then i was lucky and twins in my game are the animals i put in... i get two back of them

 

I have done as far as I can of the event so far, just need to grow the Ylang-Ylang flowers to finish - and I will finish the event because I like to do events. At least this one is not a grow and throw type (which gets a bit so-so when there are so many of them and, just lately, they come one after the other!).
I will agree with what has been said already: the requirements against the prizes are not really worth it.

I also would add that I cannot remember the last time there was a breeding event and/or a Baby Boomer where there were any really good skips. I don't expect the top level breeding animal but a couple or even three skips every now and then would suffice to keep my interest. There was a time when I would use every last PF just in case I got a good skip - now I just save it till the next breeding event cos a) the skip won't happen and b) the next breeding event will probably want more and more PF!

 

Not wagging my tale on this event. It was not enjoyable. The asking for products ... That really really was a big dislike from me. So was the slaughter of my animal barn. I only did it so I don't have to watch an uncompleted row in my clouds. But I sure won't buy another cloud row like the candy row. I like to skip all barn burners, and that is actually what the event really is. Even if you tried to disguise with with pheromones and pink hearts. Perhaps long-time players have more fun out of doing this quest than me, who's only played for 9-10months. that could potentially be the only positive about this event.

 

Worst breeding event I've ever seen.
Prizes stink, no return on power feed.
Awful~

 

This is my most disliked Breeding Event. From All previous breeding events we get some Power Feeds Back, from Power Feeds that is needed to partake a Breeding Event !!

I am shocked no Power Feeds Rewards this time. What on Earth is Big Point is thinking, to whom would really benefit getting Perfumery or Perfumery III Red as there are no quests at all demanding Shimmery Powders

We can obtain Butterfly House from Barter and Gift Event, without the need to deplete our barn stocks. We can also obtain Beehive II Orange from Barter and Gift Event too, or Build them from our Workshops.

For me at my Level no demands are needed for Butterflies, so why would i need more Butterflies Pens

There is hardly any incentive at all to do any Breeding to earn lovely prizes so it pointless to do a Baby Boom, Which by the way is giving us hardly any skips at all. I have huge doubts that Baby Boom is now all very Hyped up as it not giving us hardly any decent skips at all. It almost becoming non existence

This Event might be a turning point for me, maybe many others to be put off Engaging into Breeding Events.....As usual it seem all my feedback is done in Vain as it seems lessons are not learned from our Feedbacks even Feedbacks from Previous Breeding Events....

 

Very disappointed with this event - definitely no magic in it for me. I completed the ridiculous requirements for the first photo to complete the cloud row and did the second to obtain the trees. No more will be done unless the new trees produce enough to go back for the orange cat kennel. No fun in breeding anymore with the lack of skips, so no incentive there either.

Cons:
No PF as a prize.
70,000 barn value in breeding animals to obtain a sticker!
Out of balance requirements for the first step. No other giver in the cloud row required so much!
Prizes in general not worth the huge donations.

Pros:
None

 

BP please read, and re-read the posts from willow, Mooboy, and CylentLea123, as they are how I feel about this event also! A reminder that I almost Never complain, but this is pushing us farmers to the limit!

 

Now you got most of the technical tasks done, graphics, timing, variety, etc., now all we need to add (back) is FUN. The fun has been taken out of playing any event or the game as a whole. Bring back the fun. Enough said!

 

Here in the USA most of us were working the real job at the time the Baby boom that would have helped greatly with this event ,was going on,now i am totally screwed on trying to complete anything cause i donated too many items,so why doesmt farmerama give us a weekend baby boom starting late friday and ending early monday,what say you game coordinators

 

Opp's just went to market bought 30 bee's at 1600.00 each, i love a deal.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^!!!

 

Not at all impressed with this breeding event. Every step is asking way too much for prizes given. And the number of badges needed to complete is absolutely ridiculous!! I did the first 3 photos and will do the 1st step of 4, but 95 mammal badges!!!!! I'll do some breeding because I'm working on finishing Castles in the Sand, but 95 badges worth? I don't think so, not unless many extra badges come my way. Shame too, because I already have the bumblebees.

And yes . . . bring back the fun!

 

As someone who owns a relatively young farm still, I am very disappointed in this event. Usually I just skip breeding events because my farm can't get enough power feed or animals to participate. Sometimes I can do the lower levels. However, this time I am forced to participate because of the Candy Surprise Cloud Row giver, which is almost IMPOSSIBLE to get. I didn't have any problems shelling out the CC to buy the row. I got the first three givers easily. The fourth giver was difficult, and if I get the fifth, it will be a miracle. So, my feedback: 1) Do NOT offer a row like this again, without a degree of difficulty for the givers attached. I would not have bought if I had known I wouldn't be able to get the last one. 2) Leak a rumor about what will be needed to get the givers, so we at least have a little advance warning what to stock up on, so we can reconfigure our farms to give us a better chance on the hard ones. I have almost no products in my barn, because I use them to complete farmer's Society Quests (to get those all-important stars), and have never before needed them in a ridiculously enormous quantity to complete an event. 3) I am going to venture to speak for younger farmers here, and say that in general, we don't mind if the givers are increasingly difficult to get, it makes sense to make us work for them, but this last one, instead of burning the barn, is like you're asking us to declare nuclear war on it. It was a very bad choice to make the very last giver impossible to get. You've just guaranteed that no one will buy the next cloud row you offer this way.

 

I've been waiting to post for a while. I was so angry. I had to wait to collect my thoughts.

The cloud row trick you pulled is just ridiculous. You know it. We know it. It was rude, cruel, and inappropriate. You dangled an expensive cloud row in front of everyone's face. Then you made the first three rewards seem super easy to get. Just getting that last giver was devastating. Not hard, not rough. Devastating. I sat there looking at all of my hard work gone for a tiny little giver. It took me a long time to build the stock I had. It is all gone.

This event is just insulting. The prizes are minuscule compared to the exorbitant amount of donations. Massive donations for measly pens and trees. Pens and trees that are not even required for any current FSQ as a PP mentioned. It's disgraceful the way you handle this game. You should be ashamed of yourselves. You don't treat customers like this.

You want to tout that we have the choice to play events. Yeah we sure do. After the trick you pulled with the cloud row, which basically forced me to empty my barn to make any of that worth it. I'm so done. I will not participate in any more events at least until I repair the damage you have done. Maybe longer. Let me make this crystal clear. No participation in events=no money for you. I'm not going to be buying baskets, BB, harvester subscription, etc. I'm done wasting money on a game with producers and developers that don't care about their customers. You've become greedy and careless. I feel like I was part of some weird social experiment to see how far you can push a customer. Well this customer has had enough. I'm pushing back.

I'm not even going to waste my time giving feedback anymore. You obviously don't pay any concern to what we type here, because multiple people have been saying for a while now that this game is going downhill. It's like you want to be a train wreck. You may not want to consider my thoughts that I type. Maybe you will listen to my wallet as it tells you bye!

 

We had Recycl-o-mat before this and some of us are still working on getting the Menageries -- this is cleaning out all of our inventories.

I always liked this type in the past when it asked for tree fruit because I always had an excess in inventory but since the introduction of the Menageries inventories have been running lower than normal.

I still like these "inventory clean-out" events' I just think we need a break for awhile.

 

DESPISE this eventWorst breeding event ever
All I needed was the Candy CR giver. What a price we had to pay....750 000.00 just to get the CR and then in the very last event we have to pay 1 143 000 required value or our CR is VOID....WORTHLESS
It just dawned on me.....it is BP style of " NO customer value or satisfaction or positive experience" is the reason why I stopped playing not that long ago. I have been spending my hard earned $$$$.....not anymore!!!

 

So far, every time we have had a short Baby Boom we have had a Baby Boom from the Friday evening to the Sunday evening.

 

Will there be a baby boom period with this event? On the event I agree with the masses, this event is not worth it.
