Sad thing is, I had a passion for the game, I have time and money invested in this game and it appears they are trying to kill the game...why else would they ignore all of the unhappy players. Starting to wonder if I should lick my wounds, cut my losses and run.tcape0037 (US1) said:I agree, FarmerKar. GGS was more in touch when CM Latten was here and actually played the game. He had passion for the game and was very much in touch with the gamers and the gaming experience. A tragic loss, in my opinion...

i love thisgizmo22 (AU1) said:Having just completed the Panda task I have come to a decision it is now my favorite event (on the assumption fishing hardworker rewards also ruined by GGS). After the brutality of task 1 catch 30kg bass I received 2 tokens as a reward.....4 minutes of fishing to complete this task for tokens is better than 4 days of filling a silo to get 4.6 million points for the 70 premium cowfeed.
shows the utter lunacy of decisions being made of late
cant even remember the last time i bought gold, but for some reason ggs think making the game more of a chore to play with less incentives is going to make us buy more gold

mmm... I think GGS is of the opinion that all players are fools and will be satisfied with every stale crumb they throw our way. Pfffffffffff.
The way GGS is moving ... (backward, actually) shows how out of touch their so-called teams and managers are.
I wonder if even ONE of them plays the game ... just to get the feel of it? I doubt it.
They see products like normal feed and think..."EUREKA! good present for the player fools ... they will love wet pig feed!!! (hysterical laughter).
Shame on you GGS ... you really show your loyal and new players NO respect.

as ive been playing thru the chwe seeing pathetic 'reward' after 'reward' it dawned on me how dumb ive been
i viewed this latest trend as ggs just after more gold purchases by removing quality items from hw events but now i get it - they obviously view cc and chwe as pretty worthless events and so attached items of appropriate quality to them in the hw section (must be that way cos you dont dress up something you value in rags)
so, im glad for the head's up ggs and shall view those events hereafter with the same disdain as you do

We have the WAY over priced farm lab to make our premium stuff......leave it out of the reward category.......We have the windmill and watermill to make our REGULAR stuff........leave it out of the reward category.......and I, for one, also am tired of opening mystery boxes and being DISAPPOINTED!! No one should actually "heavy sigh" every time you open a mystery box and have 50 more premium pig feed to add to your thousands of thousands you already have!! Every player can NOT afford to buy gold very often, if at all, and the rewards are something to LOOK FORWARD to, NOT dread!! It's a shame we're even havin' to say anything, sometimes I feel like a kindergarten teacher tryin' to explain Quantum Physics........sheesh
I CAN afford it, but I never buy gold.
For one, it doesn't feel fair to me.
But the MAIN reason is : GG doesn't deserve my money.

I CAN afford it too but until GGS gives me something in the game worth buying and spending gold on I will remain a non-gold buyer. Apart from a very very small purchase when I first began playing years ago (so I can mine my first GML) all my decisions and strategies in events haven't involved gold use. I see it as more of a challenge this way so I choose not to buy gold at this time......but now I can honestly say I will NEVER buy gold because I can't imagine funding a company that makes their money by lying and disrespecting their customers.
In a few weeks GGS will rebalance the CC and Hard worker events, perhaps add 1 GML back to the hard work rewards, maybe some seaweed but much less than it was before the updates. They will claim its because of our feedback and apologize for their error in judgement then tell us how important our opinions are in the development of this game.........I really hope the bigfarm community don't fall for it this time. This has happened many times before especially during the last year where they completely ruin the rewards system in the initial update and then give us a watered down but still severely downgraded version of the event afterwards then expect us to rejoice and be grateful.......,for example deep sea fishing. The difference here is while most of us are a bit annoyed that deep sea fishing was changed we can acknowledge that it gave us a bit too much profit. Can we say the same for the CC and hardworker? Do we think the old rewards system was too generous? I for one think the old rewards system wasn't generous enough when you take into account the amount of time and resources you have to use to obtain the reward. 4.6 million points in a Coop hardworker isn't easy and 3 GML's was a fair reward for effort......can we say the same for 70 premium cowfeed? 9 million points for 50 super pigfeed? Is that a fair reward for effort?
This farce of a rebalance wasn't an accident or misjudgement, it was a deliberate ploy to tick off the community so GGS could come out looking like the heroes when they slightly improve the next rebalance of the events. I hope we don't fall for it this time or they will continue to insult our intelligence in future event "improvements". Just my opinion!

At the rate GGS is going pretty soon when we reach certain point levels in an event it will TAKE stuff from our inventory.
I guess GGS could take some water considering I have 3177 / 1000.
GGS, I would like to buy some Gold, I will give you 3,000 Wet pig feed for 40,000 Gold .... in relation to the seemingly new values on the current prizes it seems like a very fair deal.

To get to this point and WIN 90 Chicken feed I had to spend:
- 20+ seaweed humus
- 300+ seaweed feed
- 200+ gold
- 18,000,000$+ for booster
- AND hundreds of special seeds...
Hats off to you!

I can't wait for the HWE to end. My coop is in the top 50, so we will get a thousand..... yes, a thousand points for the WWC. That is so freaking awesome, I'm so excited.
Except of course that the WWC isn't going on now, so that prize is totally useless.
I know...... "I will forward your feedback to the team"...... cuz they love to say "let them eat cake" when you finish reporting and they all laugh and laugh.
I hear prizes planned for the fishing HWE include a 2 year old tic tac found at the bottom of one of the secretary's purse, a partially used kleenex contributed by the programmers, and for the grand prize, a hairball coughed up by the CFO's cat.

well I am just thankful to the BGS team for helping me get over my BigFarm addiction. I've spent waaayyy too much time and money here for waaaayyy too long.
Sure, there's an addicting quality to the game, i probably won't be able to keep away totally, at least not yet.
But I can happily slow down, just pretend like it's that old facebook farming game, what was it called?

I do not normally complain about anything, however, I must express my dissatisfaction for the current CHWE Hard work rewards. I usually see hard work rewards as an extra bonus to the game but considering how much hard work and how many resources needs to be put into the CHWE I actually find many of the prizes very upsetting and insulting.
Example: prize #32 - 1,700,000 points required = 40 Wet pig feed.
Wet pig feed sells for $12. 40 x $12 = $480
That is a lot of Hard work for a mere 40 bags of Wet pig feed which can be made in 1 minute 32 seconds for $8.
Please rethink these Hard work rewards with respect to the amount of effort and resources that needs to be put into the event. We need motivation to continue with many of these events.
Thank you

Giving chicken feed and wet pig feed at such high score requirements makes no sense. Scores that can be achieved by players that have not unlocked flower farm can be rewarded feed and fertilizer, scores that can only be achieved by players higher than level 150 should be rewarded seaweed items, and silver mystery boxes. Unless there is a plan on using building materials instead of gold for water tower, workshop and handbooks, players need gold for these upgrades. Gold rewards should be given in reasonable amounts for reaching 100000, 1 million, and 10 million. 100 gold for 100000, 2 goldflower seeds for 1 million, and 3 GML for 10 million.

I am sure you always take our feedback back to the team, and we thank you for it, the problem is nothing happens after that
This is an old exercise, seen it many times, there is no one on the other side to receive any comments, these discussions are a big show, a cathartic measure

The team will put 1 GML back, maybe a little bit of seaweed and ignore the fact this new version of the hardworker event is still A LOT worse than before......then we have to thank them, rejoice, and pretend everything is alright. Rebalance after rebalance has followed this pattern and its time we stand up and say its not good enough. Bonus points in play require the use of lots of resources....if anything we deserve even more gold than what was offered in the old version when you take into account whats needed to get enough points for this reward.

someone on czech forum pointed out possible reason. game had good-ish rewards and events were once a month. gold was flowing in. greedyness. events started to appear more often for bigger flow of gold. whoopsie daisie! prices are given out too often(because events are too often)... let's do something about it. and no one in that office of m**ons thinks about that, that those rewards were already spent in event, so any disbalance is out of question.
