LOVED this event!! Finished both, and contributed to Global. Preparation was the key...and - of course - all credit is given to those who Post rumours in the GRAPEVINE!!! Thank you so much for all the 'heads up' you offer to us all!

 

Yay, Baby Boom and Farm-Coin-A-Palooza-Days overlap! Thank you, BP!

 

Baby Boom? I got 3 skips out of 50. and a load of coins, was that supposed to be in lieu of a dog? I've the rune unlocked for this and most of them I got only two dalmations, what's with that?
I going to quit while I'm ahead here and not bother with the event; disapointment is my word for this.

 

I like the baby boom and farm coin palooza overlap. It did encourage me to breed more. However , I am confused about how many global donations are needed to be able to be able to get various global rewards. I understand the EP, but the ones at the end of the event, I don't know if I should continue to donate. I just don't think the directions are clear.

 

I really liked the graphics so detailed I wish ALL our farm animals looked like that cat and dog awesome event I also liked the farm coin palooza and baby boom together thank you BP and thank you to everyone who spread the rumors lol so we would be ready and prepared

 

I liked this event a lot! The baby boom and coin palooza was a great surprize! Thanks for combining
them! Our wonderful farmers who go and get the rumors and post them in the grapevine helped a lot of us get prepared for this event..Thank you! Thanks BP and Team for great graphics and a fun event and I the global part too!

 

This was a fun breeding event. The demand wasn't too much. FAQ on the other hand was a bit too complicated, still a bit unsure on the global part. Fun graphics. Much better than the last breeding events.

 

Thanks to the Monkey Queen all 3 of my farms finished this event-both sides; and contributed some to the Global requirements. That PF sure does go fast. I was also able to get a couple of eggs with the farm coins so I will be able to see how they work (see the pets advertised in the past but didn't no whether they were worth it or not).

 

Im still not sure about this event, I tried it and still got 2 parts of the cat side and all the dog side to do. Obviously not for me but thats the way it goes I suppose.
It says in FAQ's the drops can be donate as well as donating the animals at same time but wont let me do that Ive got to do them seperatly. No doubt I have misread again.
Well done to those who have completed

 

I loved this event too, completed both sides and contributed to the Global part as well.

Well done BP for the Farm-Coin-A-Palooza-Days overlap

 

Pros - Combining the coin palooza and breeding. Very nice graphics

Cons - The worst baby boom I have ever had. 50 dog breedings - 0 skips 52 cat breedings - 2 level three skips

 

I loved the event..until....today!

Unlocking the cloud rows yesterday, today they are locked again, then unlocked again, now the progress bar is not moving at all... sorry, but this is unprofessional without an end! And it leaves a bad aftertaste.

Graphics - great!
Event idea - very nice
Progress bars - to be forgotten about.... better to show the real donation status either in percent (with 2 decimals) or the points donated with updating every 5 mins as done in the TOP200 last time. Then it would be clear, were we are at, and how much is missing for the price.

Again a nice event with kind of poor performance.

Sad, very sad

 

I agree 100% !

 

An event with very poor rewards for the efforts players have to make due to very high requirements to participate. Nothing wrong with that, I know not every event can be a Carnival, but when I need to donate 250 level 1 breeds I expect better prizes as a red pen/workshop upgrade and a very few farm goodies. It could've been better if the sidebar completion gave a level based reward like BP did in a previous event.

The correction on the Global Progress Bar leaves a bad taste as it seemed the players were able to finish the event way before BPs sceduled time. When completed too early BP would miss a bunch of sales. To blame it on 'visual' aspects is a poor excuss. It should've been tested way before going on line. It feels like I've been cheated.

Next point of crtisism is the Global Intermittent Chart which was presented in the original English FAQ. The chart showed very obvious there were increasing EP rewards to be earned by progressing throu steps while donating to the Global challenge. I expected to get a good EP boost as a make up for the poor prizes, but instead of recieving several 100s*farm level the reward was 0.204 EP per EV donated. In other words: donating a Tabby Cat (4500EV) gave me as many EP as harvesting a field of sunflowers.
Removing the chart from the FAQ, stating it was confusing and incorrect, is a good thing but without a compensation gesture towards players it would've been better to say it was misleading.

I can deal with faults being made, I can't stand being cheated or mislead.

Graphics are fine, adding Farm Coins to breeding is welcomed, lack of skips when breeding is hard to bare.

Overall qualification for Cats & Dogs Days: very fishy.

 

My thoughts exactly, I previously tried to express my agreement with clonahmon full post 100% , however it was edited.

 

I agree with your entire post. You have expressed my thoughts. I hover my mouse over the global bar but no statistics is available. Also the rewards are very poor for global part. It fails to give us conviction to do the global part. But gives us every reason not to empty our barn and CCs & PFs. It should have been more attractive & temptative.

@trishap58
I am sorry I missed your entire post.

 

Personaly another PR disaster from BP, especially with global donation bar. Rewards are puny in relation to what was required. Well done BP for duping me into using alot of my BB's to get powerfeed and extra cats and dogs, not again lesson learnt. As said by others before if companies treat their customers badly they will go elsewhere. As I say this is my personal view

 

Why not allow them to place their items which they have EARNED on their clouds so they can start using them? Please consider this as a reasonable suggestion. Thankyou. I think of this as a technical simply solved issue. For those of us who are unsure about global rewards we might just be satisfied with the fact that we achieved our cloud rows and we would feel so happy if we can immediately reap the fruits of our labour. Encourage us to play and don't limit us when it is not really necessary.

 

Indeed Tiageorge, cloud row is open Ive got all givers to place there but unable to do so. Got to wait another 3/4/5 days until script is run to earn the benefits of the row. Come on BP let those that have the cloud row get the use of it, during other events when people have got the cloud row it can be used WHY not this one.
Yet again another negative feedback in the long line of them.
