Feedback Question Tuesday CW10: Breeding Events

Howdy Farmers,

It's Tuesday again! This week we would like to know what type of Breeding Events do you prefer.

Please choose one of the poll answers, and if you wish to provide further constructive feedback, please do not hesitate to do so.

The Poll will be closed on Friday, the 6th of February at 18:00 CET.

Best regards,
Your Farmerama Team

 

This was a tricky one to vote for. I love all breeding events though must admit to finding that there are so many now. But I love when new animals are introduced with the events and quests that go with them. I also love the alternative breeding events like the cuckoo series. So hence my choice to vote for a mix of them all. Variety is the spice of life!

 

illy, I thought it was a very easy vote

I also like all of them, but variation is the key A new breeding animal every month (like we had for a period last year) is quite stressful. A brand new animal for breeding is fun once in a while. I also like the baby breeding events with existing breeding animals, but that would be a bit boring if we never got new breeding animals.

I also like the cuckoo breeding, but since we can't sell the colored cuckoos on the market it is very important that the prizes are good. The first cuckoo breeding had way too high requirements for not so great prizes, the last two were much better

So for me there is no doubt, a mix of all of them is the best option

 

Personally I liked the event with the Babies, that was fun to participate in. I think I didn't/couldn't yet participate in the Cuckoo breeding event if there was one since I joined in November, but I don't quite remember that. And I'm looking forward to the Chameleon Breeding event. Like -Mir85- and Illy already said, variety is the spice of life

 

Yep, mix of all
In agreement with what's been noted thus far.

 

By far the easiest and logical question to vote Obviously, I've voted ..a mix of all. Most of the breeding animals are needed to finish quests, so it's not in vain

 

I prefer the old ones being updated with new pens/breeding, by far. Got too little space as it is, so I don't feel like completely new animals add much positive to my gaming experience, personally. It'd be different if all the old ones had already been updated, then it'd be more fun to get something new once in a while. Besides, old ones feel new when updated (at least to me). The breeding animals for them are new, as are often the workshop and the pen upgrades along with new graphics for those that used to have classic stables instead of coloured upgrades.

 

Hi I voted for a mix of all. It would really me nice if we could donate the babies or the cuckoos
to the LL rune like we were in the first round of cuckoo breeding.
Happycallie.

 

I voted for a mix of all as variety is always welcome. But that being said, the breeding quests are the only thing I have left to finish in the Farmers Society. So maybe an extra BBD just for working on those projects would be great.

 

I also voted for the mix and strongly agree with Mire85, I just want to add that there is some old animals on the farm that have workshops, adding them to the breeding list that is available would be nice, like Beavers, peacocks (no workshop)., and the parrots and elephants on the island.

 

I voted for "a mix", because I do like them all. That said, I would lean toward more events that use existing colored animals, rather than introducing new ones, for some of the same reasons mentioned above. One or two new animals a year seems OK. More than that does start to bog things down, unless you give us more space. (this might be technically difficult, but what about opening up a special event space on occasion?)

 

I don't like breeding events as PF too expensive in my opinion and still have loads of FS breeding quests to do.

 

I do like a mix of them all, provided the prizes are worth it. I also only like to breed on BBD because PF is so expensive.

 

Oh this one's an easy one for me: Providing they lowered down the chance of getting good skips, that they "fix" the rune of 10 % faster workshop faster but they don't "fix" the 20% chances to get a good skip when we breed higher bred animals, that there are too many breeding animals, that they don't lower down the need of power feed to 1... yes, that's an easy one: I don't like breeding events!

 

I voted for the mix, I think we currently have a great mix of breeding events and I wouldn't call any of them a favorite.

I agree with many of the things said by others, I love that there is a new Chameleon entry but at the same time I agree that converting a classic to a breeding is also a good idea. I wish that the Chameleon event was taken a step further with additional levels that also offered Red rewards. (maybe that's coming in the future?)
I'm not sure that I agree with 'we need more space for all the animals' as the strategy of which pens to put out and when is part of what keeps it all interesting.
And although it wasn't exactly a breeding quest but required breeding animals, Soup N Friends was my favorite quest ever. I'd love to see more quests like that one that are hard work in exchange for amazing rewards. I wish that when I finished the quest it opened part II

 

Honestly, that is what I feel. Of course, due to limited event time and limited producing PF are the main reasons.
I am sure you (Devs team) can see the newbies and the old timer farmers are still working on breeding coloured animals on FSQs which required many coloured animals. Why do not you give us a chance much time to work on it?

I voted for I don't like breeding events! Not to mean I dislike to breed the coloured animals for a quest, but I prefer like to donate a coloured animal for permanent quest (FSQ), rather than to donate it for an event quest.
I represented the conscience of minority farmer feelings who are reluctant to provide input on any breeding animal events every each month.

Said YES for FSQ, and said NO for breeding animal event. Just a thought!

With all due respect, I thank you for your attention.

 

I voted a mix. But I wouldn't want the chameleon's quest as I'm at 78th level and I can't acquire the food to feed a chameleon. So how could I bred one ??? I have 12 chameleon farms just waiting for food. Boy would I love to start making chameleons and selling them...!

I'd gladly trade a Chameleon Shed for a Lychee tree !!!

Guess that would be a wonderful surprise for a Quest ... a Lychee Tree !!!
I guess after that (he/she) would need a upgrade to level 22 to sow cranberrys.
Then (he/she) can mill their own Chameleon food.

 

I voted "do not like" not because I don't like breeding events--I like pretty much any event challenge--but because it's virtually impossible to keep up with the powerfeed demands if you aren't using real money. (Also, I completely missed both Baha breeding events due to critical golden banana shortages.)

Maybe keep the mix but space it out a little more, instead of every 3 weeks (which is what it feels like right now)? And give us at least one baby boom independent of a breeding quest--some of us have a Soup & Friends quest to work on

 

As long as power feed is a huge block to completing the existing breeding quests, STOP ALREADY with the breeding events!! I have stopped even trying to finish even one quest since breeding events started. If power feed were not such a problem I'd agree with the majority on a mix - the events per se are reasonable and kinda fun. But the power feed issue seriously needs to be addressed.

 

Personally, as a newbie, I hate the events - they all end before I can complete them! Especially the valentines one - spent all that time growing items, just to find out there were items I was not entitled to buy, to complete the quest. As for breeding - this is something I completely get confused about: breeding = two go in, three come out. Here, 4 go in, one comes out! Are you sure it is breeding and not some Frankensteinian laboratory where the 4 are chopped up and made into the new creature?
