Where do I start, so much wrong with this event I'm likely to forget some or most of it.
This is the first event ever that I'm seriously considering skipping.
I don't need a 120 hour cloud row to give me 10 tools, when I already have a cloud row that give me 5 tools in 9 hours. Doesn't even rate on the same scale.
You can only plant on Main, when Bah is going to waste as I have no reason to grow anything on Bah.
I could get 3 Lolliboxes but only 1 Ride 'em Cowboy. C'mon what happened to 1 or 2 of each decoration
This is primarily a donation event so why do we need event crops, let alone 4.
I don't need SG, PF, tools, farmwheel spins, stars, bananas or old repeated trees and stables gathering dust in my inventory.
The design department need to refocus their attention on Farmerama and not their endless circle of war simulation.
Men may be interested in a game if it wasn't so pink.
The only strategy looks like no strategy. Can't plan with what I don't know.

There is only 1 positive for this event and that as always is the sticker. Still hoping for the old album even with it's non stickiness.

 

So far...after a first reading of the FAQ, I like that there are no drops so I can farm normally today and tonight without having to do anything special to prepare the farm. It also means that I don't have to wait for the event to do my first morning harvest allowing me to do some short timed things before the event (good time for me to grow some wheat, carrots, hay).

Four crops! And no idea of how many of each

I like the flexibility of being able to use different combinations of event crops and our own stocks but will reserve my verdict until after I see the amounts asked for. I really don't get the pacifier for BB's. That is a lot of money for one step.

Graphics are cute as always but I was more excited about this event when it was in the Grapevine.

I hope the cloud row is placed in its appropriate category as last event's row was not.

 

I have a hen that gives me 10 tools every 12 hours. I don't need a CR that gives me 10 tools every 120 hours. Now if you guaranteed a Power Drill every 120 hours, maybe I'd consider it. 12 BBs per pacifier??? Highway robbery even if it is optional. Random amounts??? Who can plan anything??? "Medium" event??? Considering the inaccuracy of the ratings of the past events, the confusing FAQs, my brain screams in pain. What happened to a fun "game"?

 

I quite like the look of this event: no drop items and no milling needed - definitely positive bonuses for me!

On the negative side, I would prefer to know the levels of donation requirements, especially the event crops. I see that we can donate one of each of the requirements or one item three times - but without numbers, it is difficult to know what we need to do to our farms to participate.

The prizes are okay but they seem to be a bit same old same old these days - long time since we had a "WOW must have" factor prize. I do like the secret/wonder items though. I always love surprises (rarely get anything exciting but the anticipation that one day, maybe, if I wish really really hard ... ).

I think the devs are trying very hard to keep us happy and enthusiastic - though the events are becoming a little complicated ... having said that, we would only moan if they were too straight forward, wouldn't we?

 

My initial opinion:

Likes:
Not having drops to worry about!
No milling!
Prizes usable for all level (even if not thrilling).

Dislikes:
A ridiculously expensive pacifier (sadly, this looks like a ploy to get real money spent)
Four crops (definitely 2 too many)
Yet another "empty the barn" event (on the heels of two others)
Sticker "prize"

Will see how this plays out, but not excited about it at first glance.

 

Hellooooo... does anybody upstairs even listening???

(what else can i say.. it's all been said above.. n repeated many times in every feedbacks)

i'll wait n see how the event go..

 

if everyone was smart , they would skip this event . 4 crops and only 3 lands to plant on ? 12 bb 's for one step ? i see this as another money making scheme . they DON'T listen cos too many are willing to spend real money just to finish an event cos they cant resist doing without.so WHY should they listen to us they get the money anyway . as long as they do u will keep getting money making events !!!!!!

 

There is one thing that I like about this game, apart from the wonderful graphics and the relaxation aspect, is that we can play it for free or we can pay real money. The choice is ours. BP is a business and, as we all know, a business needs to make money in order to survive. We don't need to pay any money upfront to begin playing this game, nor do we need to spend any real money to progress. Progression takes longer when playing for free but it's a great challenge with no time frame or pressure, unless self inflicted. There would be so much time and effort put into this game and its events by the developers and yet they still allow us to play it for free. Every time I read the feedback from events, it appears to be mostly negative. If anyone isn't happy with the game then just stop playing it, no one is forcing us to play nor is anyone forcing us to pay. I choose not to open the cloud rows as I like the decorative items on my farm and I don't want to feel that there is any need to complete an event to just to add to these rows. I just pick what I like and try to aim for that, if I don't get it then so be it.

There is so much negativity and pressure in this world today and if one of our worries or frustrations is about a game and its lack of event drops (& drills), or the perceived notion that we have to pay to finish, then our lives can't be that bad. I'm not getting on a soapbox or anything like that, I just think it's a pity that this fun, simple and creative little cyber farm game seems to be causing much angst for so many. As far as feedback goes for this event, I think the graphics look fantastic as usual, especially the crops, and it will be a challenge that I know I will not finish, but I'm ok with that.

 

Very well said, Growalot!!
I am absolutely on your side.

I love the graphics and the whole point of farmerama is to HAVE fun!!
So Lads,

Have FUN and don't take the game too seriously please

Happy Farming

Personally I'm not thrilled with this event since I can't even complete the first level. The pig is asking for flowers several levels above my level.

 

can you donate the other flower it is asking for?? That would make you level up then.

Good Luck!!

 

I love the crops - I think the event is do-able, but for me real life will get in the way - Pity because the items look great

 

So, I have to make 6 (double) donations to get ONE level and there are 12 levels. That's 72 donations PER animal! Nothing awarded for the donations until the level is complete then the award is minimal. Plus the second level on the pig is to get the worthless event sticker. Well, I tried it. I don't like it. I won't go any further.

 

im skipping this event too ! i have too many animals to care for my own and the ones people dump on my property like they are trash . i spend my money to care for them . not on some game .

 

Think i am skipping this event and stocking up ...72 donations per animal is a lot... and i would sooner keep what i have in my barn

And not being able to use green meadow and the rain forest isn't very helpful with 4 crops to grow

Only thing i like about this event is the graphics

 

Would if I could. All 3 flower choices are above my level by several levels. I'm at 89 and the lowest level flower it is asking for is 92.

 

Unicornslady, you should contact support, they can help you see the OA.

 

wow..i have to say four event crops and we can't use all our fields. that's crazy.. i'm not sure how far i'll even be able to get on it because of that..i like the concept but i just wish i could use all of my fields for it.

 

Too complicated for mediocre rewards. Skip for me.
