Feedback Producer's Newsletter: January 2015

Mill~ queue can be a good thing, but please bear in mind there seems to be constant demand for animals in fho and it is Not just the 2 that originally asked for them, plus quests and events... IF you are going to change time for milling or amounts/products used in milling then the reasonable way to go is less not more. As for paying bb to speed mill time, excuse me but what is the mill subscription for then?
Please listen to your base on this, increasing time and amounts will only make a lot of very unhappy players.

G&T ~ I believe I missed most if not all of the last one, would be nice to use some of my tickets soon.

 

Greetings everyone,

Thank you all for your feedback. Regarding the mill queue...
This is the reaction we expected: Woo hoo ! Mill queue ! Feature that the community suggested for so long is finally going to be implemented ! Awesome news !

Just to be clear: it is a design preview / sample. A hamster will never eat 150 hit singles + 150 goat milk + 150 koi fish + 150 cow milk.

i hope new version of mill will come soon ,now producing food is taking to much time i hope queue will be good and help save us time in game cant wait next G&T event,i have many gift to give

 

Whoohoo!! Mill Cue!!

 

Fantastic ... now if the new Mill system could include PF milling on Baha, that would be the cherry on the cake!

 

Hear Hear Chevrefeuille ! After all we use PF on the island as well. I too hope there will be a separate mill for the reef or reduced milling times.
A revamp of G&T would be great, particularly the search functions. I too think that even to have an old style G&T would be good as it may be a very long wait for the revamp.

 

no bonuse code? : ( (just kidding... we should not expect them in every letter)
Seriously, sounds like some nice new features. I particularly like the mill queue idea.

 

It's nice to see that some of the ideas and suggestions are being picked up and at least being considered......I also like the "teaser" picture, even if it turned into a runaway train for using/displaying images that went berserk inside player's imagination. I hope that mentioning Gift & Trade is also more than just a teaser....it has been too long since the last G&T event. A rework is nice, as long as it is limited to the functioning of the existing G&T features.....please, no gizmo's that need forever tweaking or anything that will turn G&T into a BB trap.
And... yes, I read the Newsletter although there was no Bonus Code included.

 

Thanks for the input, teddy.bear! You have no idea how ridiculously awful it is to read something like that - but even worse was reading/seeing such expanded mill times, and that little blue BB sign!! Devs - Enough already!

On the other hand - the mill queue is g-r-e-a-t!! Thank you!

 

I think it is just an option to pay for instant finish (like for the seedlings) and I don't mind that. Will not use it myself, but if someone wants to pay - then sure, let them

 

Yes, options are great. The problem arises when the mill time is increased so much that the 'option' almost becomes a necessity if one is to realistically accomplish feeding our stock, complete events, etc., within acceptable times. This increased time affects the operation and bottom line of our entire farms. Unfortunately, this doesn't sound like much of an option.

 

If you are referring to the two hour mill time for hamster feed, I don't think that is any more real than the fake ingredients

 

Oh, Mir......I certainly hope you are right!!!

 

Hello, hello

That is right. It is just a design mock up of the feature, so ignore the actual data. We've informed though the Game Team that the screenshots are causing panic attacks on Farmerama land so they will hopefully use real data for future preview pictures

We know that the idea is loved though and it was suggested for a long time, so it should be a great change.

The "problem" is the urge to push that button ​

Happy farming,
teddy.bear

 

So glad to hear that, teddy! Wish it had been said from the beginning. The "problem", however, is the increased mill time AND the 'button'.
PLEASE tell me that they are part of the design mock up and not actual data! If actual, it is a game changing feature, since we rely on the mill for so much.

Thanks, teddy!

 

Greetings lovely Farmers,

Thank you all for your feedback . ​
