[Feedback] Easter Event 2016 Sneak Peek

[EgyptianQueen]

if they start up with low egg drop it is something but putting drop rate with 150 and reduce it not even to half is not logical.did they just wake up one day and say that we did great mistake making adventures drop eggs what we can do what we can do we have to annoy players who use test servers to help themselves and help us find bugs bugs bugs bugs that is everywhere the game is starting to be very annoying and i am playing only for about 5 months isn't enough that the game isn't active enough as is used to be check chat channels specially trade one

Perhaps they could drop the requirements for items accordingly. That way, things wont have been nuked, just adjusted.

I calculated we need about 15000 easter eggs to get all the "Permanent" event bonuses, that's a fair amount which only the most dedicated players will actually achieve.
This means we'll probably see Easter eggs selling at 100+ coins each.
No gripe in that - this gives the "Easter Buffs" completely unreasonable prices, I really don't see anyone buying any of them for any reason other than misclick.

So, BlueByte - save the Easter Buffs from being "dead content" by drastically (!) reducing their egg cost. Maximum 5 eggs for Easter buffs, then players will actually think about getting some.
Wouldn't it be awesome if that content, which already exists, would actually be used?

As usual there are lots of people giving feedback to BB but once again the flow of information/suggestions is one way. when are you going to answer some of the criticisms instead of just letting people vent their dissatisfaction and let us know the reasoning behind these ludicrous changes.

I make it 17925 to get all.
I don't agree with your reasoning that the price of eggs will be 100 for that reason. Way I see it they will be 100 because Presents were that price and they was also about that price mark last year and the fat greedy traders can't even come up with a flimsy excuse for setting the price at 1k.

I'm going to wait for the dev diary before worrying about anything.

You guys are driving me more and more away from the game, firstly he lets get rid of maintenance, but you dont, you just change its name and dont run it quite so often and now run it at a time that I lose my daily bonus because it runs late and cant get on when I once could. Then you decide to change Easter adventure drops, I am disapointed that we were given advertised eggs drops and were allowed to go nuts wasting guild and standard coins to get adventures only to find that we are getting next to nothing in return. Surely it would only be fair to not advertise the egg drops until you knew what they should be.
No one seems to know what the heck is going on, and if you change the rules like you did last year for island collectables and pretend you fixed it, then firstly I wouldnt be surprised, but secondly I may well cry and go play something classy like Candy Crush. Stop making everything so hard, you are turning your "regulars" against you.

Firstly BB have never advertised what the event item drops from adventures are. Secondly all they have given us is a sneak peek which as has happened in the past means what is found on test is not set on stone and is subject to change prior to going live or a dev dairy coming out. In fact I do recall one occasion when changes were made they told us what is in the sneak peek is not set in stone. As for information posted by players in the test forums or has been included in various web sites that information in some cases has no sign of being verifiable.

A lot of people seem to be taking what happens on the test server as definitive. It's a TEST server- they test more than simple game mechanics but all aspects of the game. This includes things like event rewards.

It's been stated time and again that what is on the test server is not necessarily what will go "live". Yes, Wiki sites will happily inform you of the drop rate of eggs or the loot from adventures but it is not immutable. BB will tweak aspects of the game based on test server feedback- that's what it's for. So the drop rate of eggs being changed shouldn't be unexpected- same as many things that the test server tests.
