Soooooo....
The only option to get those buildings is: Spend gems?
Island is full already. No space.
For years already.
Also I don't have gems.
I did have an Amiga 500 and the settlers on it. When it came out.
1993.
When I was young. And the settlers was fun.
lighten up, youve got a big heart
It's the 30th Anniversary, plain and simple.
Not the 29th just because it took longer to port to inferior machines, in fact for a select few it's the 31st Anniv as we were testing the late versions in 1992/3.
So this should have been a major event, in keeping with the 10th, 20th and 25th Anniversaries, not another damp squib gem sale :(
Anniversary event is always a gem shop but 30yrs without a special event is a shame - just the same as last year with a few new (unwanted) buildings
Does XP and loot bonus for adventures go for 2 weeks or 3 weeks to the full end? Can't remember.
always till end of the event phase- the deactivation days do not have a bonus
So 28/8 is end of bonus
deaqctivation phase is not a week in this event but just 3 days as there is no event goodies shop just a gem shop - u get 3 days to accept the ocmpleted quests/phase2 reward quest
"This quest chain only starts after the anniversary tutorial main quest "Party Preparations" has been done."
And the first step relies on collectibles... potentially an 8 hour wait then.
Genius way to kick things off ..... NOT
Tremble appears to be missing in shop other then in a package
A very disappointing first day of event. The Prep Quest is a bad start when people have come online earlier than they usually would to ensure an efficient start.
Every event most Guilds do preparatory work of some kind to ensure their members know what to expect.
New players do not have a problem as most are grabbed by some Guilds as they arrive and are usually well looked after.
In my view the Prep Quest is not needed at all. Especially as there are 21 with 3 sub quests to follow. Many will struggle with the time to complete them all.
Lastly it looks like Tremble Beard has done a runner under the nose of the Developers who promised him. Or was he abducted by Aliens? - who knows. Please put him back there are those that need him and some will buy both the bundle and him on his own.
where is tremble beard general. what a shame :(
so i have a dough account on usa server. it has 3 times less explorers gets 3 times more dough than this account candles and gets double candles for them in trade. result is dough account is buffing with big cake while this account manages to scrape together small cakes. nice balance BB!
not to mention that basically you are rewarding not playing the game.
And how is this new? The event has been structured like that forever and a day- u get more dough than candles
As lower lvl players struggle more to "harvest" em from adventures due to being able to run less and less rewarding adventures- i see it as a nice perk to partially compensate the lvl and they can make a bit of cash or trade up items - exactly the advantage the high lvl players have in other events
It is completely unacceptable that Tremble Beard is not in the shop.
It is completely unacceptable that dev diary was edited to remove him (with no clear sign of the edit either).
"Price: 1x 4599 Gems, 1x included in Bundle | per Event" was the original dev diary.
This is at worst illegal false advertising and evidence tampering.
I demand that you immediately make good on the promise from the original dev diary.
lol, really?
a surprise mail with him as a gift for everyone seems appropriate. "old man got lost etc"
Useless skins as calender prizes.
Just stop it will you?
At least give us something useful for enduring the repetitive cycle of scenarios, minis, ventures, L11s etc.
So the tree of hope only works on unbuffed buildings?! Beyond useless. Extremely disappointed
Giant Tree of Hope
5X5 Radius? Even when tree is upgraded to lvl 4?
Why...?
Why even give feedback anymore? After all these years..... I think I just give up.
Hello Cheetah.
Could you post an unedited screenshot of the Giat Tree of Hope where we can see the upgrade level and upgrade options?
That's very interesting, because in the dev diary we didn't note any upgrade options for the tree, and also the in-game tree doesn't have any upgrade options.
Maybe planted 4 trees?
Why did diary lie about the deactivation?
Says 10am CEST on the 28th, but everything is still going here on the 29th, lot of us ran things down last night instead of slinging buffs on a building that was about to disappear.

Here you go.

Hmm strange: I logged off logged back in and now it say's lvl 1:

It did say lvl earlier....
I don't see any "lie" here:
The In-Game timer also leads to this date. If you are talking about the "Removal Phase" in this event it only removes some of the Community Quests, but everything else goes on until the deactivation phase as said in our Dev Diary.Quote:
Deactivation: 31. August 2023 - 10:00 CEST.
Cheetah, instead of trying to convince me of something we both know, I hope you will take this as a lesson :p
Removal: 28. August 2023 - 10:00 CEST
A lot of us read that as the main functions ending at this time, especially combined with:
Donation Phase 2: 21. August 2023 - 10:00 CEST - 28. August 2023 - 10:00 CEST
The consensus in some very lengthy discussions over the weekend was that this meant the event was ending on the 28th, with the shop running until the 31st, as has been the way in previous runnings.
Too ambiguous.
And yet again, the concert hall bug ruined things,crashing computers if you visited somebody running the blasted thing. :)
The disparity is because this event is unique as no event items to trade like eggs or pumpkins to help others in the guild so the end is the end in this case.
We all love the game......
