Seriously, look at the crop and drop requirements for this event that will be going on simultaneously with another high requirement event... are you all out of your minds, or just so blatantly greedy for basket, SSG and SG sales that you can pull THIS on us without even a twinge of guilt? There is absolutely NO reason this event could not have been tailored to be played on the special event field. NO reason

Come on you guys. You are killing all the fun of this game for so many of us that are trying so hard to keep up, or even just get a foothold in the game

All I can do is shake my head.

 

PeepsCA I totally agree!! Most of my neighbors have quit playing after 4 years. Everyone is just fed-up

 

I think it's a big mistake putting 2 events on together. I've chosen not to do either, which means that from at least 1 player, you have lost income from the baskets that I usually buy - It's a shame that the game is going this way, as it used to be so much fun

 

Ditto to all of the above!

 

Who thought it was a good idea to run 2 events like this together at the same time? Not everyone gets to sit at home all day, or check on their personal games at work, or likes to set up an alarm for the middle of the night just to harvest crops.

 

Amen!! Get a clue, BP - your greed is not pretty. Enough said.

 

Just my opinion but:

I think having more than one event at a time cuts down on BP's sales (so this is less greedy).

I like having more than one event at a time as long as they require different fields and have same harvest times (or multiples thereof so we don't have to stay awake 24 hours a day to harvest). It allows for better use of CAC, harvest helpers and other buffs (have you checked the market lately?).

What I don't like is not having some type of break between events to work on replenishing inventory, quests and just relaxing doing general farming. The back-to-back events is where the greed comes into play.

 

And just wait, it looks like we have a MM event before these events are over. Yes, that is on another field but I would like to concentrate on just MM when it comes instead of having my mind full of event items to remember. Again, I don't have the time to spend all day on this game. Friday I'll be lucky to harvest more than once.

 

I agree with all that is said above ....This game isn't fun any more AND that is sad because it used to be a great game to play...now it's become stressful and I can see players walking away from it because of it
I think Farmerama needs to wake up ...without players... there is NO game

Another Event I didn't finish because of Lack of drops

 

It appears to me that the requirements of these two events have been shuffled together - more crops for this event but only on three fields. I will finish the crops for the Alchemist's Garden tomorrow with about two days to go.

The drops seem to be right for Alchemist's garden as we can get them from all fields. But how are we supposed to get enough drops for this event when, for me anyway, I have to plant a six hour crop overnight or I won't finish the crops?

It will definitely be a nail biting finish for me - and I am one of those who can harvest when I like these days! I would have no chance if I was still working!

It would have been better to have the two event crops plantable (with drops) on all fields and let us decide which we would plant and where.

I started this event with the idea at the back of my mind that if there was any extension to the event, I would kick myself if I didn't even start it! Is that negative psychology or what!

 

I agree with everyone above.
Real shame and not surprising so many are leaving

 

I agree with those above. BP yet again takes no notice of the players

Please increase the drop rate.
At least give us a fighting chance. Why so mean BP

 

I know this is repetitive but I'm just supporting the overall dissatisfaction with the constantly churning event cycle and overall mismanagement of said events. Take a little time between events, implement them properly and give players the occasional break to do something else with their farms. It's not a lot to ask.

 

I'd like to add my voice as well. I've been playing for years, 5 or so, and the game is no longer the relaxing break at end of day. I realize it's a difficult job, to make events challenging to the more advanced players and yet obtainable for newer players. I can still remember racing to get my last harvest of cornflowers to the FS to complete the event and just barely being too late. Darn! I pouted for a week or so but came back, determined to be a better player. It is, after all, a game and should be fun. I too, no longer have the cushion of crops, products or animals I used to enjoy. There's just so much going on, I just keep telling myself that no one is making me do anything.

 

I totally agree.
You are destroying what used to be a happy farm BP

 

I like this event (and this type of events in general) a lot. I like the repeat givers and flexibility in unlocking and using them. I'm not playing for completion, using only 1 and a half field for crops, without CAC, but still getting good and usefull rewards, going for fields which give me the best benefit against this level of effort. I actually like it so much that I wish I could play harder, but then it would not be fun due to me being focussed on more important things in life.

As to moonlight and other event running together I have no problem with it. Moonlight is my favourite and I'm glad it's over two days long, so even with easy effort I can still get some work done. If I was in mood for gaming I'd hapily play all 3 events while activating CAC and tractors to get the best benefit of them all.

So not joining popular moods, but giving "well done" for both Full Speed and Moonlight.

 

Such events are disrespect for low-level players. Not only did it take place in parallel with another event, but also the huge requests of event crops and drops. Low-level players have the smallest chance of drops.

I haven’t done neither Alchemist's Garden nor Full Speed Ahead. That ~edit~
