I posted this in the Feedback thread, but since a few liked it, I thought it would be nice to have here as well.
Hello All,
When the 2016 Easter Event happens it will mark my 2 years of playing this game. While I enjoy it very much, this event is near and dear to me, as it is the one that was going on when I started. I did not have many friends and did not know how it worked. Now as a guild leader in several worlds and putting out a lot of information on this event, it makes me very sad that you (INNO) took away the real social aspect of hiding eggs on peoples places. In spite of what I saw the reasons for such, I must disagree that this event is hard on new players and lower levels. In fact, this is where the basic foundation of finding a good guild and good people in the game, just like life, are necessary.
I pride myself on being informed and thank you all for the new buildings, but the hiding of the eggs is someone everyone looked forward too. In fact, I did place a bunch of 1x1's just for that purpose. I am FE Age in my primary world and if I can do it, so can others. I told all of our guild mates to get ready, the new ones who missed the Christmas event and only joined during the past few months, to get ready for Rogue Hideouts. Some new players are looking forward to them and I sure hope when this event goes live, it will have the hiding of eggs and Rogue Hideouts as well.
I might add, getting 1 egg hidden in a tree, really.? The good thing and exciting part is having a bunch of people put eggs on you over night and waking up to opening them up getting 1, 5, 10, 50, etc. I would have to look back at my notes and I think the numbers might be off a little. Don't shoot me. Also, the part about hiding eggs, we all believe that most everyone knows to ONLY give eggs to people to give you eggs. If a player does not have enough friends, that is what your neighborhood is for. Please don't say, one cannot go to global, which we all have at one point and say, looking to swap eggs. This is a social game for a reason and joining a good guild is very beneficial to one's game.
I urge you to PLEASE bring back the hiding of the eggs, it is what really makes global, guild chat and people more active. As for a few who find this part of the game that difficult, really.? This game has more important issues to address then worrying about someone saying I DON'T WANT TO TALK. Come on, bring back the true social aspect of this game, guilds are for this reason, neighborhood chat window and global chat is there for a reason.
Therefore, please bring back what we all enjoyed about the game and let us hide our own eggs. You should also allow us to reach the goal of collect at least one of each prizes with the eggs as I currently see it, it would be very difficult for anyone to achieve this with this little 1 egg at a time. Talk about lame and boring. Please don't mess this event up, it is always very active and fun. I urge the game to go back to all the chat windows and see how many people made new friends and traded eggs, there was a reason for this to start with, please DON'T mess that up for us all.
Yours,
Steve - LordStevie - Guild leader in many worlds on the US Server.
