Anyone else brutally disappointed with Halloween 2015?

we've just started guys there's so much more to see, and they can always add more stuff during it we haven't seen. muuuch stuff

Am still hanging onto the hunch that new content is being hidden and will show up with an update. Doesn't make sense that they aren't releasing new characters with an event - would be a very odd first. Doesn't make sense that we would end an event with nothing to craft.

Am speculating it's something BIG :)

So far EA has set a precedence this year for giving us what we want - sideshow bob, monorail, bad dream house now has a task among other favorites. They even made it easier to drop terrors this event.

Must have been having a bad day yesterday. This tapper is back to happy tapping, hoarding just in case and hopeful for a super awesome surprise.

Gil? Maggie? Am so hoping it's Maggie.

Agreed with everyone here.
-They should've used a past ToH episode for inspiration instead.
-"prizes" are just a bunch of new skins (Tapball all over again), and not enough new buildings/decos
-no new characters (Tapball all over again, not counting that horse that was premium)
-I have no idea what I'm going to craft, since I already had everything that's been offered before. I'm just hoping there's something we don't know about coming, because this is crap.

+building/house skins, although all houses getting them would have been preferred
+At least we're getting donuts for the (easily doable) challenges. That's this event's saving grace.

I love this event the rewards are so easy to get

Indeed. If only the FG Halloween event is as easy as this one. Now THAT'S a grind. :lol:

+1. Not to mention can be very expensive if you want to stay current. Haven't spent one donut in TSTO Halloween.

My 4th Halloween event.
I quite like it.

there were 3 stages of mood for me in this event so far:
1. stage: hate. i was pretty disappointed in the lack of new characters, the trend of skin only events (like CoC and tapball), and the lack of new decorations i like.

2. stage: love. i quickly changed my mind as most of the decorations arent as bad as i thought. i love the spooky groves, the impossible tower and the elder god stuff. still, the lack of characters didnt change, but it was outweighted by the positive stuff.

3. stage: despair. mostly because of the THoH tie in with the big a** pond, i completely ran out of space. my town is full of stuff, i dont even have space for things to com in the next act/next level update. i (and im sure im not alone on this) need more land, the good old problem.

Game mechanics are good. Prizes are a little weak especially with so many repeats from last year. I have a ton of rabbit ears, snake eggs, bones and brains that I doubt I will end up using. I also have almost 800 formless terrors that I can't seem to get rid of because all my neighbors are maxed out when I visit (I even tried visiting at different times of the day).

I am also getting tired of the same characters getting tasked for crafting. Its hard to craft rail pieces when half of your crew is off making s'mores or gathering at the Simpson house or drinking wine ect.

I loved Halloween 2013 and missed Halloween 2014 because of my state funded vacation so I'm enjoying this.. Same music as 2013 which is cool..

No wifi inside?

first tapped out Halloween here, heard that the pass ones were pretty awesome, maybe just because the items/buildings are not that attractive as it were.

but i appreciate the craftable Kodos and the return of Drive-In Theater. Couldnt help and Got the theater right away after it was released, it is a very decent park material itself and Space Mutant is a great character with fun animations (putting him along Cletus to dig dumps :P ).

what I really dislike is the fact the same characters are needed for various jobs and as part of quest lines. You almost need a spreadsheet to organise where everyone should be for the best payout! If it wasn't for the free donuts I would have given up a long time ago with this event. I'm not crafting multiple items as they will just clog up my inventory if they can't be sold. I have enough rubbish in there I can't get rid of.
