The drop rate of carrots still way too low. The donkeys and spruce wood for Task 4 is also way too much.

it is finish-able on lvl 3 without gold usage - completed it the first week with a good day to sparearcherbob (AU1) said:Well it took me 30 hours to collect 1410, at my current rate of knots I'll fall a couple hundred short of finishing when the timer runs out... so it's official this event is NOT finishable, not unless you gold.
lvls 1 and 2 were finished in approximately 24 hrs each no gold

Purely in my opinion, the food truck event is fairly well judged , except that the value of the reward does not match the amount of goods required to be donated . It has to be designed to cover the increased production that people will get from their gourmet farm over the next couple of years , otherwise there is no challenge .
The wedding event has been drastically miscalculated , if there are no changes I doubt anyone will ever bother doing it .

well now i am 197 but 4(?) weeks ago I was probably several levels lowerSam-chan (FR1) said:i am curious to know the lvl of the players managing finishing these events at lvl 3 without gold and the organisation of their farms....
lvl 3 took longer because i had just dumped all my baked goods and Oleg fish in favor of some upgrades just prior to this starting and we didn't have those quantities (can't remember if we knew the items) - normally my inventory of bakery goods is at max and Oleg fish are only used for making dishes so normally have a easy stockpile
obviously for level 1 and 2 we knew the items and expected the quantities to be less
- I have 10 fields - level of field does not matter for drops
- Normally have a near full inventory of all crops so donating barley was not hard
- I also have 2 dandy and 1 deluxe dandy duck coops out besides my 5 regular ducks so I am harvesting those quite often - level of ducks does not matter for drops BUT the 2 hour vs 8 hour ducks have different drops
- AND there is a randomizer on the ducks (and some other things) which gives (near) double the "normal" drop ie: reg ducks normal item drop is 12 each duck but randomly you will get 23
- One thing I have that most farmer don't is a lvl 3 composter on my GF which gives a decent drop - assume a higher lvl composter would drop even more but not sure
- I had a lvl 6 mill (upgraded it today) and virtually always have a max mill going
- Have 4 cherry orchards on MF and inventory is always about max
- Even if I had zero edge crops with 10 fields of reg dandi its easy to pump it out
- Sent Oleg fishing and used inventory on hand

I finished Level 3 the Food Truck Event at around level 153. No gold or seaweed used. I have 5 fields. I spent wayyyyy too much time on it, though, and now do it at level 1.Sam-chan (FR1) said:i am curious to know the lvl of the players managing finishing these events at lvl 3 without gold and the organisation of their farms....

Even though it is unlocked at a much earlier level, why is it designed for players above level 100?

Well, in the video with GGS, he did say something along the lines about supplying content for higher level players. Let's face it, they are bored and need more challenges than the ones who are still at lower levels.dchen1 (US1) said:Even though it is unlocked at a much earlier level, why is it designed for players above level 100?
However, a well-designed event would be challenging and fun for all levels. Raise the stakes for those over a certain level, but make it doable for lower levels as well.

I was not bored with events - i am bored because of endless non-stop monotony of competitions. I looked forward to this as a break in adding content to utilize all farms - which should have been done before imoartful (US1) said:Well, in the video with GGS, he did say something along the lines about supplying content for higher level players.

I surely did not expect to donate everything. This is not what i anticipated and for me is certainly sub-par and half-baked.Nor did it replace or substitute the narrow focus of competitions as the game is now.
There is no reason to not make this playable for all levels that qualify to have the GF not just the higher levels. There is no reason to force a player to belong to a co-op to complete.
I have lvl 1, 2 and 3 deco but i sat here thinking big whoop - because they are being parted out - I get nothing out of completing. Certainly no desire to push for the next higher level considering the sheer amounts of donated goods.
Although this is about the food truck - I will add the wedding planner - I almost finished it the first week - barely played the second due to the lesser drops off Oleg, the expectation of too much donated goods and pressure of too short a time frame. Pretty much like the temp island times - i will never get above completing the 2nd chapters and for some time have no longer cared - there is no feeling i need or want to complete as when I first started.
So what i had anticipated as a welcome addition for GF and FF - they are not on my radar anymore. If i am truly bored i might finish lvl 1 or 2 again and continue to "donate" the deco for parts (I think I can buy parts cheaper) - which is why i won't use gold or special ferts on these events.

Yep. Agree with everything. I might have pursued if I hadn't had to "give away" everything, and the deco was of higher value.JustMe (US1) said:I was not bored with events - i am bored because of endless non-stop monotony of competitions.

I doubt this farm has any issues collecting the drops but how does he feed everything from one lvl 4 field? all gold to purchase feed?Sam-chan (FR1) said:i am curious to know the lvl of the players managing finishing these events at lvl 3 without gold and the organisation of their farms....

Probably just uses Farm Dollars to buy the raw materials (Dandelions, Lamb's Lettuce, Barley), then converts it to feed in the windmill. I know a few people who do that. It's expensive, but when you have $Billions$, who cares?JustMe (US1) said:I doubt this farm has any issues collecting the drops but how does he feed everything from one lvl 4 field? all gold to purchase feed?Sam-chan (FR1) said:i am curious to know the lvl of the players managing finishing these events at lvl 3 without gold and the organisation of their farms....

ahh - so true didn't think of that cause i don't buy like that - once in a great while for the horseshoe boat - kind of defeats the game premise that it is a farming game - however in looking at it and this farm - probably is making money hand over fist so why not!Southern (US1) said:Probably just uses Farm Dollars to buy the raw materials (Dandelions, Lamb's Lettuce, Barley), then converts it to feed in the windmill.

Why does it require so many carrots? At level 80, it asks for an amount designed for level 200.

Nowhere. You can't save them, either, so it's a non-reward.TitianKitty (US1) said:Fish bait - I know, Special Seeds - I know; but where do the Blue WWC Fans go when there is no WWC event in-progress?
