Anyone else brutally disappointed with Halloween 2015?

Y'all should have been mastering those glitches. Nothing is overpriced at this point! I still got thousands of donuts bruh!!!!!

I have to agree on this. The content is really poor, nothing exciting at all. I was hoping for act 2 to have something fun, maybe act 3 will be better. :(

Not totally. But I have a terrible lag still when tapping zombies, snakes, etc. This is sad because I love tapping in these sorts of events. Squishing is fun and this event has plenty.

Act 1 was disappointing. Prizes were meh. My snakes did not spawn at the rate the zombies & other stuff spawned so I just got the gate very close to the end. I wasn't impressed.

Act 2 seems better so far. I've actually wanted several craftables. I didn't get Kodos before so not having to pay donuts is great. Some of the prizes seem uninteresting. I actually thought we already had Clockwork Bart as I've seen him so often & I don't really like that. I just got the mechanical ghost which is small but pretty cool. Would like more of those.

What I do miss is the opportunity to "buy" decorations with in game dollars. Last year I bought loads of jack a lanterns and put them out. (Now I see you can craft them it'll be irritating if I have to craft another.)

I'm saving my donuts for when something really exciting is released. Normally I would be buying lots of scratch cards to spend the donuts on stuff. I just realised I haven't bought any for weeks as I haven't seen anything I really want.

I am getting fed up with so much event stuff costing donuts. A year ago these so-so items would have cost $$$.

BTW, don't moan at complainers. If you don't like complaints don't read threads that clearly are about complaints.

The event prizes and new premiums are brutally disappointing. The only thing stopping me from going on a total rant here are the nice payouts from the shopkeepers tasks.

Nothing to buy except with donuts. Crafting is horrible.
Event started late and then we'll have "Halloween" two weeks after i's gone.
If you don't use donuts to get ahead you have to play every few hours to get the pathetic prizes.
EA seems to fine tune the game better and better to trick us into spending money. In my case this doesn't work I have stopped using donuts.

Very disappointed indeed.

I like the event play and the fact that formless terrors are very easy to come by. Been holding on to hope that more new items would come out for crafting and that an update would somehow come with a new character... Doesn't make sense that they would release hardly anything new... Quite disappointed with the content so far.

Seems the donuts I bought to get ready for this event may just cover xmas instead. I'm so confused here, why would they release an event with hardly anything for returning players to buy?

I'm with you, neighbor....seems like the new players have so much new content to craft/spend donuts on/ in game cash. As a long time player I feel so left out and ignored. They've brought back so many things that I already have but there's a few things I didn't get before but, not available (i.e.: Mayan Marge and Kung fu Homer). I know they offered Myan Marge with the Mayan Calendar last year, but I didn't buy her and wish I had ever since. I've got lots of donuts I wanted to spend on Halloween too but, guess I'll hand on to them.

I'm disappointed that they didn't add not one single new playable characters. They could've added so many. 9 skins & 1 NPC.

We got the Evil Shopkeeper's challenges, but we need him as a playable character?

M'nsther is a major player in the storyline. Why don't we get him as a playable character.

Here are some other characters they could've added...

Count Dracula
Gypsy Fortune Teller
The Devil
Monkey Paw Vendor
Grim Reaper
Blue Demon
Edmund
Serak the Preparer
William Shakespeare
Billy the Kid
Golem of Prague
Cregg Demon

Also, I would love the Gremlin as a NPC

Also they could've added Marine World as a new squidport building & made King Snorky into a full fledged playable character

The building skins are already released. You just have to get to the part of the questline to unlock them.

brutally disappointed???

uh, ok....

Nope I really like the mechanics and play of this event. The only thing disappointing are the prizes.

agree, prizes are a bit lackluster for long time players, feels pretty strange not to get a character/building

skins are nice but not as much of a boon as a full on extra character

but i really like the mellower pace after so much Springfield Heights/Monorail grinding

and holy crap i wish theyd do away with the whole mechanic of sweeping across a huge springfield to drop each formless terror off. makes you feel like a lot of visiting time is just spent waiting for the camera to stop moving. the effect was kinda cool when i first saw it (gremlins THOH 2013?) but now that towns can be so big it becomes a drag
