in only 30 days per levelI also like that the base building provides silver upgrade fragments and the silver building provides golden upgrade fragments.
This is nice indeed, but getting fragments of a building that rewards fragments of another building, not so much. It will take ages to get the first Granny Aurora/Shroom Thrones & Jumpin' Pumpkin/Cider Gardens... and by looking at how this game progresses, they may not look so good in 1-2 years as they do now.I also like that the base building provides silver upgrade fragments and the silver building provides golden upgrade fragments.
I am a diamond farmer AND (sometimes) I buy diamonds to thank devs for emotions I am having in game. I am not a big fan of cash only option for pass already and you offer to bring in even more cash options and limit dia farmers. Y do you hate us (dia farmers) so much? Just because you can't get in gold league? On live recently finished fellow ship event. Some of friends managed to get gold league in just 2k extra event currency bought. I had to spend 6k due to some time missed. Do you want to put gold league price even higher?Actually the suggested changes does lot of good things respective to the events and players. It does not affect f2p since event progress is designed to meet without using purchase option. Purchase is used when some players missed the event or needed more to progress. On that case, using real money is completely acceptable. Right now, players who player for more years might have big diamond farms and on any events they eventually stand on last league due to their diamonds spending. So if I have 1000 top players in my server with huge diamonds farms, my chance of getting into final stage of league progress is very very less. Before I start to match my diamond farms like them, they will be way ahead of me always if they are also still extending their diamonds farms.
So, by making real money purchase option in the mini game, benefit of diamond farms is cut out and if they need more progress or more event building, let them purchase with real money.
Also, I was intentionally made the choice event passes without real money to rely diamonds only when purchase option in mini game reflect with real cash. If mini game doesn't get the change of real cash purchase option, then asking event passes with diamonds is ridiculous. May be, event passes can be given choice either diamonds or real cash if mini game doesn't get real cash purchase modification.
With my change, diamond farmer or big diamond purchaser, can be rely on event passes only. Only issue with this change is, if many (let's say 1000) players using real cash option in mini game, then also normal player who give full contribution on events cannot match with them. But they have the same option as top players to meet the event league progress by spending real cash. It is nowhere crippling anything and it actually brought event league and process into a balanced situation.

You are lucky to have your main city in a world where not too many players are buying diamonds. In my world, in the last 30 minutes or so spending diamonds went crazy, many held near the end and then started pumping currency into the event. The gold league limit went from 600 to 615 in about 25 minutes. On the secondary worlds where I have hybrid cities(half diamond farm half normal) it was not like this. The gold league limit didn't even go over 600. It's quite strange and quite annoying in the same time, the world where I have my main city is the least played compared to the others, yet here are the biggest diamond spenders. In any event with leagues on my main world the gold league score gets very animated just before it ends.I am a diamond farmer AND (sometimes) I buy diamonds to thank devs for emotions I am having in game.

I definitely don't like your idea as it is now.
It's never about affordability. Just bringing balanced situation to everyone for the events. Just because of having more diamonds and spending diamonds, normal players who gave complete participation on events should not be waiting in low league when compared those big diamond spenders. Also, for little here and there small diamonds spenders can store their diamonds and use it on the event passes when the diamonds counts matched. Event passes diamond cost be should more reasonable since gold and silver passes are given out. Gold pass diamond cost should be very costly and to afford it players must have a game plan of receiving diamonds in their regular game play.If you can't afford tools for diamonds, what makes you think you can afford the chests for diamonds?
No, Myself trying to reduce the impact of diamond farmers in the event league progress. And for players who wish to spend more diamonds in the game, gave them option to buy using real cash itself in the events.Just because you can't get in gold league?
Before analyzing the effect of this change, what if many players leaving the game because of this change. Already leaving percentage is slightly heavy, and few are holding into the game because of events only. Any change in events, might impact game players leaving count heavily.It's never about affordability. Just bringing balanced situation to everyone for the events.

With my real cash change, new player or existing player starting the new age with less diamonds can utilise the event by spending real money. So event league process can be maintained mutually.

Generic diamond collection
Player - GE/diamond collection from special city building/GBG etc., - event tools
This is applicable to any players. With these, my change will make everyone follow and perform events in a same manner.
Normal players in event without Diamond farming,
If zero diamonds,
Player - real cash - diamonds - event tools
But with my change,
Players - real cash - event tools
Diamond farming players in event,
If zero diamonds,
Player - diamond farm collection - actual event playing city - event tools
But with my change,
Player - real m - event tools
I know, it alters many players actual game play and company might get more money benefit. Players will get used to this change very soon is my understanding.

Just bringing balanced situation to everyone for the events
Not really, hateful IMO, but I agree, it's definitely not "crowd pleasing" and with the amount of randomness, I doubt, that every city will actually be able to archive the highest building level without spending diamonds. These assumption is obviously based on the "crowd pleasing wild life event". But I'm definitely not thrilled to see the next reskin of a bad event."The crowd-pleasing popping mechanic from the Wildlife Event" ----- are you SERIOUS? Crowd pleasing? The most hateful thing you ever invented!
level 9 is just 280 if you count the upgrade from the questlineOk. So... some interesting results:
That's going to be pretty difficult to hit the gold upgrade.
- Autumn Vineyard Lv. 9 fully assembled after 320 progress
- Silver Upgrade fully assembled after 420 progress
- Gold Upgrade fully assembled after 500 progress
If we get one from the daily quests as last wildlife event you should end around 90, maybe slightly above.Is there a way to tell how many wooden spoons you have available?
True. At 300 progress, you're looking at 90 days to finish out the silver upgrade, and an extra 110 days after that to finish the golden upgrade (obviously not including blue galaxy). In other words - more than half a year to close out the two upgrades if you don't have a blue galaxy.level 9 is just 280 if you count the upgrade from the questline
and I think 300 will be enough for me (that is the golden sunflower oil press upgrade)
for the remaining silver and gold fragments I can wait a few days and collect it from the building
