We as a community who play this game have some questions and concerns about the direction the game is taking. In desperation, I am hoping that maybe if we phrase them as a serious of simple questions, directly to you, we can get some answers. Because the silence here in response to players being very upset about changes in the game is deafening.
Was the change from 0:05 to 5:00 breed time for pandaffodils created by unicorn-pandaffodil breeding intentional?
If so, WHY?
Considering the huge player backlash, will you change it back?
If not, why not?
Please acknowledge that you recognize that this change makes it nearly impossible for anyone who did not have an emerald before the change to EVER get one.
Please acknowledge that you recognize that this HURTS a large group of players who have remained steadfstly dedicated to this game since day 1, but were not one of the lucky ones to get the emerald before the change. AND that what this does in effect is great a huge gap between those who were lucky in the first place to get a unicorn quickly and now literally many, many, many times as lucky because they get emeralds when the rest of us have better odds of getting hit by lightning. And that that means you have cursed the group of people who were unlucky early on with the unicorn to ALSO be cursed with nearly no chance for an emerald if and when they ever DO get a unicorn.
Would you PLEASE consider making it so that anyone who does not already have an emerald, when trying to get one, get the 0:05 fail instead of the 5:00 fail? Just to be fair to us who deserve the emerald no less than those who got it before the change?
Have you ever changed the odds of a unicorn being the result of 4 elements bred together? [* note]
Do you plan, anytime in the near future, to allow us to expand enough to fit as many large habitats and grand farms as our level supposedly allows?
The last pair of expansions came without an App update needing to be installed. Which proves that adding expansions can be done without waiting for Apple to approve changes for an App store update. It is entirely in TL's hands, not Apple's. So WHY have you continued to disregard nearly every single person on this forum BEGGING for more space?
Are there any other breeds you plan to change from difficult to nearly impossible? If so, which one(s)? I'd like ot at least have a snowball's chance in h3ll to get them now if so. Since I'm obviously never going to get the unicorn no less the emerald.
And finally, if you read this and yet refuse to (or claim the inability to) answer any of the questions, please at least reply saying you read it.
[* note: a number of people who got the unicorn super-early got it before they could even build a home for it. During that time, I intentionally did NOT breed 4 elements together because I knew I could not yet afford the gem cove, and opted instead to continue trying to get the non-gem breeds I did not already have, and that I could afford to house. I now suspect that that decision may have cost me a unicorn. I suspect the odds were changed after a short time, hurting those of us who were planning ahead conservatively by making it much more difficult to get a unicorn when we were ready for it. Just a hunch. But I'd like confirmation either way, as I'm sure all the plethora of other folks who have tried for a unicorn for weeks and weeks to no avail would as well.]
