I have most of the breeding animals for this event, but I'm considering whether it's worth doing given the underwhelming prizes. The cloud row in particular is not worth having as I get a very very small fraction of my EP from stables, so 250% bonus to stables EP is not worth anything.
I'm an older farmer so I have all the pink stables offered, and many of them I have neon stables for the same animals already. That means only the treehouse updates are valuable to me....and it's a lot of resources for just those. It would help if the cloud row also gave EP or some crates or something.

 

I like both these events(!) and since there is only one crop to grow, they fit well together. That said, I'll play these for fun whenever I'm on my farm....so, no stress!! I could use the pink stables, but if I miss getting them - then I miss getting them.
I'm here to r-e-l-a-x, and have fun with my farm and lovely neighbors!!

Thanks for giving us the possibility of stress-free events!.....AND only ONE crop. I haven't checked to see if the amount of the crop is reasonable, but that will make the entire difference in the event "enjoyability" factor. Here's hoping not too many!

See you all at the fair!!
​

EDIT:
...or - maybe NOT!! I just checked the completely ridiculous amount of crops required!!! 25,000plus to 27,000plus???!!! BP, Are you kidding??!!

GET REAL!!!
Thanks for ruining what I THOUGHT was going to be actual FUN!!​

 

I don't know who told BP that we like challenges but I would like to just be able to have an easy game where I can complete it and get all the prizes. A challenge is nice every now and them but event after event after event. I remember when we could choose between comfort fields with SG or 1x1s with CAC. Now it seems its 1x1s with CAC and SG or harvest bonues to complete.

I already have the neon pens for the pink ones offered and sometimes I can't even have them out so not worth it to have it sit in my inventory. Maybe newer players will want them. I have no needed for them unless they really expand the number of slots for the buildings (arboretums, manufactories, menageries). I also don't really care about leveling up faster because I have plenty to do without leveling up and there doesn't seem to be any incentive to do so other than to have a higher level no new lands or areas open up that I know of).

I will just take it easy and do what I can.

Good luck to those who decide to give it a go.

 

I do enjoy the minigames, but the chances for playing them are too costly and I get frustrated that I can't just play them without endless farming and drops. I'm so tired of the endless events and ridiculous requirements. I'm caring less and less about finishing events (and spending less money). You are taking away the enjoyment of this game! I'm not sure why you ask for feedback since you ignore what many players tell you - and by the way, long-time players! I'm not even sure why I am bothering to leave feedback.

 

I like that for this event, there are no crops needed to be grown - but you put this on during a crop growing event! So we can use Baha for animals - but it's just the principle of the thing - WHY must you make everything so much harder than it needs to be? I am doing less and less with the events these days. There are just SO many of them, and they are tedious, and I care much less about finishing, or even starting. I am still enjoying the game - but I play it on my own terms for the most part now.

 

Like others, I am really enjoying this event. Only drops to worry about. I especially like the trade function ... amazed that it is a 1:1 and, even better, doesn't cost anything.

The drop rate is pretty good too. As long as there are enough stable and workshop pens out, everyone has a fair crack at getting enough except perhaps the very new farmers who haven't got longer timed stables/workshops.

The only downside I see is the requirement for breeding animals but the levels and numbers required are not too high to either breed or buy for most established farmers.
All in all, a fairly stress free event - a much needed break from the frantic events of late!

 

What I liked most about this event was the ability to exchange drops. That's a nice touch.

The asking for specific breeding animals was also a nice change from the usual donation based on "worth" of the animals.

Third, players were not really forced to breed to get the animals as they can be purchased and drops no coming from exclusively breeding. That was also different with this event, and although I did breed, I like the idea of having the option of buying instead.

 

I like that the exchange rate on the trades was 1:1.

I like the variety of items offered. I don't need 2 of the same EPs but I could use upgrades, stables, PF, etc. I like that they were available in case you didn't get that far up the side bar but I wish I had looked more closely before I started exchanging Gear Coins.

I don't like that we have another coin -- I would like to see all events use Event Coins and have them remain in inventory (in lieu of exchanging for cc/tep/ep).

 

I would also like to add that, though I wasn't looking forward to having four drop items, this wasn't too bad. As we couldn't gift them, we could send only one drop item to our neighbours and friends. Another positive point. Also, there was nothing to mill from these drops so yet another plus!

 

I also agree with the very good comments above...and would like to add that I just might be able to finish this one!! (shock!!)
THANK YOU for a well thought out and fun Event!!

 

I have finished tractor event and like the exchange of items cause I always have more of what I don't need. Did have to breed some cause I never have enough. Prizes are okay and since I hoard extra pink stables are okay but would love to be able put them out and leave them.

 

I think the lack of feedback on these two events might speak to the fact that they weren't as terrible as some of the most recent events. It might also speak to the fact that everyone is tired of saying the same thing over and over and not being heard. I did finish this event but the fact that I have to prepare for yet another TWO (technically three) tomorrow just leaves me tired. Gone is the sensation of accomplishment for completing events as well as the sense of disappointment for NOT completing events. Events aren't special any more they are just chores in a game that is becoming repetitive and too much like work.

Too many drops on this one and the fact that we couldn't gift them didn't really change the fact that you can accomplish the same thing with one.

I agree 100% with the person above who says we don't need yet another form of farm currency. Just leave us the star coins and let them roll from one event to the other like farm coins.

I'm sure giving pink stables on this one was a good prize for younger/lower level players.

 

Greetings lovely farmers,

Thank you for all the feedback. We appreciate you sharing your thoughts so we can pass it along to the Game Team.
