Please leave any feedback on the Summer Event 2017 in this thread.
You can find all the
details on the event here.
This was my first summer event and the buildings looked very nice. I had a few issues/concerns though. I almost collected all the buildings for both quest but tickets simply didn't helped getting the buildings needed to collect. I know the event was set up casino style where you you take a chance on the wheel and luck has to definitely be on your side and you have to act fast before someone spins the wheel again and your chances of getting that building go away. It was harsh getting the buildings and I think that more tickets should have been put in the wheel for more chances of winning.
The other issue/concern I have is that when this event goes live, the research a Technology quest will be a problem once more. I am thankful for some of the solutions that were taken concerning this matter but the issue I will have and many other will have too is that almost all my maps are in the Bronze Age and we have to either research a Technology or donate 400 goods to the treasury. I have no problems donating, but the problem is that to collect those goods in the Bronze Age is like fighting spearfighters with tanks. It takes too long to sell your little stockpile of Bronze Age goods to the marketplace because you will be out of luck if your guild can't help or your neighbors don't need those goods and then you will be force to wait till someone buys your goods and then you missed a couple of days playing the event trying to collect those 400 goods just so you can donate it to the guild. We all have our gamestyle of playing FOE and my gamestyle is staying in Bronze Age because I'm enjoying the game at my pace and I feel that I don't have to rush to the next age and since I have no more Technology to research, I will be not able to to participate in future events if we are asked to donate goods to our guild treasury . For higher level players donating this goods means nothing to them, but to us who are in the lower ages, donating this much means that we will have a harder time on finishing this and future events if we can't come up with this crazy amount of goods. In order to be fair across all ages, I suggest that you give us more options that will make it possible to finish the event and not rage and stop playing until event is over. I would rather buy forge points than waste my time trying to collect 400 goods knowing that I won't be able to finish the event because it won't be easy to do so when members of your guild or neighborhood are not interested in buying what you have to offer .
Lastly, the buildings are beautiful but you guys have done nothing to help out with the expansion issues! Every event the buildings are nice but they keep getting bigger and bigger and there is no space for them. Can we start winning them in prizes?? Or better yet give us more medals and lower the medal count for the expansion grids. In Bronze Age I get maybe 5 medals once a month if I'm lucky and I have to have 3000 medals in order to unlock an expedition, not fair, I say, so please helps us make this and all future events more enjoyable by making it fair across all ages. I don't have $$ to buy diamonds, but I make the time to spend in FOE and if I can't play the events because of these goods situation, I don't want to go elsewere since I invested alot of time in all my live maps. I'm not angry, just concerned and I hope you hear me out. Thank you for listening to my and maybe to others having the same issue/concern regarding this matter, take care, bye.
