Plus we are probably going to have server crash each time event starts, cause people will be opening 2nd, 3rd, 4th account just to get enough event resources. Well done BB! just when I thought this game can not be ruined anymore.
at least give us beans or grout for event resources. I can make my own GC. As Drengor mentioned. Time to move on to something better.
I was juat on your test server tell me this is not all your offering there is nothing there for the older players please put the advs back RTBN MSE and those so we have someting to spend are stuff on also i will not be accepting coin for my stuff if you are not willing to offer use fair exchange for goods we need i will be expecting diamods for mine at the rate you charged for them.

I just want to know if the limits on the test server are on top of the existing limits we have (meaning if we got all 3 possible lucky explorers in the past, we can get a new lucky explorer)
Why so little for soccer balls?
Limits are a key part to whether this event is great or a dud. I'm sure it will be great for anyone who missed it the first time to get these, but it will be lame if all I can get is more grout.
don't mind too much some changes. we deal with them or quit. but the explorer numbers for achievement getting bigger Easter basket when the eggs were seriously changed in mid event was very irritating.are we going to be able to earn tokens during the mid summer event? will our adventure loots be hacked again, explorer returns adjusted. will we get a new team that just wants to change the game to what they want next month?
i think you miss the point the older players have no need for coin we have tons we need something to play like advs that are impossiable to get or need diamonds to buy.
My question is for those who are new to the game. What will they do, watch in various chats about how everyone finally got everything they wanted while they sit with nothing? Will they wonder why Ubisoft has not given them the chance to at least use their explorers to find tokens, or to adventure their butts off to earn them?
This is not 'an event' as much as it is the removal of event items from the game without a complete and total revolt. Why call it an event? Why not just put up the merchants and allow players to convert for a month and call it what it is?
I understand this is a test version, but thus far, the grade is a fail.
This is the best way to run things from now and into the future. I was one who collected event res to save for the next years event :)) But after thing about it , we new players who who have the same chance at finishing events as us old times..
GOOD MOVE !!!
Tote
I hope they will let me get the 2014 easter MMA eventhough i just got the 2015. I bought 4000 old eggs at an avg price of 60gc per, liquidating everything i gathered over 6 months of play with the incorrect asumption (i blame bb staff) that it was the ONLY path to getting one (excluding gems of course). I am glad that everone had a chance to get a vet, MMA and other nice goodies for 2015. However everytime I look into my inventory and see those old eggs I feel burned. I hope the devs take this into account. When old eggs are converted into tokens, they need to take into account the people that bought them at panic prices. I miss my grout, my beans, my granite, my gold coins, my frozen manor, my etc..... *plays the spca sarah mclachlan song*
While they are reimbursing us for the speculation prices of old event resources based on sneak peaks and testing data, I also have some tulips and beany babies that perhaps they should buy. Maybe they would also be interested in some dot-com stocks...
they did the exchange rate on item compared to what the item sold for when you bought them with gemsQuote:

If we can get items above the limits, then it's a cool event to liquidate the old event resources. Otherwise it's not that great.
Agree with this guyQuote:

This is the main goal of the event, yes.Quote:

I think that this is fair. It gives those people that missed out on spending there gems, to get another chance via tokens. If you already have everything you can still get grout and other none limited items, that's what you would have got if you had spent the event resources at the time... it gives you a second chance. You can't expect to get new limited items, be grateful that you can at least use your otherwise "useless" event reources.
Good job BB.
Good luck to those who have presents... (or may be even other resource types.. but presents are the worst)..
Why?
Here is why...
While BB made it easier to build multiple stacks in PH.. Thank God..
They forgot that any buff built in PH has to be manually dropped on Mayors house.
In case of presents.. that means.. you can spend even an hour..
just dropping stacks of 75 tokens on your mayors house.
Please please please make it easier somehow.. bigger stacks.. or ability to drop multiple stacks from Star to Mayor house..
Whatever.. it has always been a pain.. and converting to tokens, will also be a royal pain... in the hand.
Could you just run a script to convert current resources to tokens automagically?
Why force the conversion in PH and what I said above..?
Gee, an automatic change to tokens. A great idea that will save players mucho time. Therefore will never see the light of day.Quote:

When? I wonder if a date will be announced in a month, with the start date yet another month out...
Why does it seem like it will eat into a real event like the world cup one last year..
Or does BB plan to have mid summer and soccer event back to back - I doubt it would be the latter..
Because there is no soccer tournament this year to begin with.
Besides this Midsummernight thing doesn't sound much like an event but a market on the side.
there is a world cup soccer tournament in canada, womens world cup, but guess that dont count as bb probably sexist
Threads merged.
any word on when this might start??????
2020Quote:

2015 is so boring.. and it's already half gone.. who cares about 2015.
Is this event already over? Did I miss it while I was sleeping at night?
The event will start on June 30th.

Point is.. why should it take this long for Dev Diary I don't understand... you already have it solid in your mind.. no?
The Dev's Diary can be found here.
Woot! Cool Event!
I bought alot of the resources when the events were about to end, preparing 1 year ahead untill the event would come up again. I am sad to see that strategy failing due to gamechange. I dont disagree with the change as it probably will force experienced players to take part in the event, and make them/us actually do something apart from just buying event resources as I have(having 6k xmas presents would give me a good start for next event). Even though I think it is correct of dev/BB to change as they do, I would think it fair to let the experienced players have something for their planning. I have all high-cost items from these events, and there are really nothing I desire from midsummer event. Yeah, I can sell/help guildies, but really??? shall I have no reward for trading, buying, bidding and then saving those items for up to a year? Been selling granite, titan ore, swords etc to afford the event resources, to some extent hindering my own progress just to be prepared for next year.
I like you're humor! :DQuote:

Well, it will be an opportunity for you to spend gems to get some things that are quantity limited. For instance, you're limited to buying 1 lucky explorer from the merchant chest. But in the event you can use gems to buy tokens, then use those tokens to buy two additional lucky explorers.Quote:
