global news: valentines event history+challenges
chris jonadicus
Dear friends, hello.
As the valentines event has ended, i cant help but to remember that the valentines weekly event is much, MUCH more difficult to win now, than it was before.
In previous years, i could easily get more energy per each sweet treat, and with it, i could earn many more gifts than now, which i would send to all of my friends.
But after day 5200, the devs made the valentines week event much harder to win, the sweet treats give you less and less energy back, and you earn so few gifts back, that even if you do buy the XS valentines day pack, you would barely get 10-15 more gifts and a fragment of energy that you would easily win in previous seasons.
Imagine that this year, i shot so much damage, and i barely got enough energy to earn 25 gifts or so, also thanks to my friends help, and so, i could only send 25 gifts out of the 100 needed for the first level of the v-day medal.
Lets make a rundown on the entire valentine weekly event over the years and how it gradually got worse after the 3rd year of its existence :
valentines weekly event on day 4108 : it was a fair event, and you could easily earn the energy and sweets needed for the first level of the medal, if not more.
( 10,000 love bites needed, and you could easily earn 20,000 in each v-day event for the first 3 years of it... )
valentines weekly event on day 4473 : it was a fair event, and you could easily earn the energy and sweets/gifts needed for the first level of the medal, if not more.
( same here, easy and fair to win )
valentines weekly event on day 4835 : it was a fair event, and you could easily earn the energy and sweets/gifts needed for the first level of the medal, if not more.
( also same, it was easy and fair to win)
But, on day 5200 or so, things got unfairly hard to win the valentines week event medal.
You would earn way less love bites per hit, way less energy back per battle/for each sweet box, and along with that, you would earn way less gifts per valentines week box keys...
As such, from day 5200, to 5565 to 5930 ( nowadays ), the valentines week event medal and rewards/requirements for the medal got too difficult, not just because the 100 gifts are hard to earn, but also because you get next to nothing in energy per hit/per sweet box, and even less gifts per v-day box keys earned...
In my humble opinion, i feel that the game devs should make the valentines weekly event easier and more fun to play, so that even the weakest/lowest lvl players can earn the first level of the medal each year, and to have something nice to show for their activities...
Thankfully they havent ruined the annual events or the spring break events yet... ( hopefully they will keep them doable and accessible... )
Speaking of suggestions, this game needs MANY more seasonal events and quests and more medals to earn...
I would personally also add some new e-nations in the game too, and a few more events/quests/medals, but what can i say? its up to them.
Do you like the more difficult valentines day event? Or do you prefer the older, easier ones? Was it easy for you to earn 100 gifts and to send them to your friends? what are your thoughts on this event?
plz let me know your thoughts and opinions in the comments section, and please comment/vote/endorse+subscribe to my newspaper.
as for subscriptions: plz subscribe to my newspaper+ tell it to other people too...
(i sub for subs, so lets help eachother to reach the 1000+ subs achievement!)
until then,

I did about 35k pp last week and got 105 presents. Since decorations are just vanity things, I don´t mind making the last one difficult to get, but the first one should be quite easier. For example, you should be able to get it just loging in 2-3 times a day, so it motivates some 2 clickers to open the game a couple of times instead of just once to work + train.
thats what im saying, the first level of the medal should be way easier to earn, as i earned and sent 25+ presents to people, and yet it needed 100+ to even reach the medals first level...
in my humble opinion, it should have been :
-first level of medal : easy to earn, just send a few gifts to people ( or to log in 2-3 times like you said )
-second level of medal : moderate difficulty to win, more gifts/challenges for it
-third level of medal : hard, but fair, with many challenges to earn such a tier.
them bonbons tho

Admins wants you to buy more packs, huge shocker.
all game developers want to earn more money or their players to buy more packs, thats not surprising at all...
whats a sad fact tho, is that they make this event very unfair and hard to win, even if someone buys the pack thats destined for it.
thats why good game developers make fair events, so that you can win something regardless of how much you spend in the game.
Devs need to actively balance and fine tune the game in order to retain player engagement, unbalanced events such as the most recent one alienates players who aren't willing to spend money on packs-
i got 81/100 and it was kinda meh, wish i earned my first decoration .o?
for reference the guy that was ranked #1 in the weekly had 629k prestige points XD
wow, thats crazy!
they make it impossible to win even the first ''easiest'' level of this medal...
Σωστή η παρατήρηση σου στο άρθρο αυτό.
Παλαιότερα ήταν πολύ πιο εφικτό να συμμετέχει στο διαγωνισμό της εβδομαδιαίας εκδήλωσης και να κερδίσει το σύνολο των παικτών αν συμμετείχαν ενεργά.. ενώ τώρα δυστυχώς ήταν μόνο για πολύ λίγους
ετσι ειναι.
παλαιοτερα ηταν εφικτο να το κερδισεις, αλλα τωρα? δεν το κερδιζεις ουτε με 100 αποπειρες...
δεν φερονται δικαια, κατα την γνωμη μου.
I only got 48 keys to unlock the chest. Didn't even get my decoration.
and its very unfair, if i might say so!
