The event also appears awfully low in new content to me.
Here are some key problems:
- No award for first 24 hours like usual (Gypsy House, etc.)
- Too few boxes (~ 1 or 1.5) per day
- Bulk of free decorations have been transferred into boxes so I can't decorate immediately
- Boxes award GOLD eggs, a inter-prize that's really not a prize at all
- No discernible goal to reach by players. Most boxes will award a decoration or gold eggs (NOTHING) so there's not much reason to play.
The result that, for me, this even has been downright horrible. Like HORRIBLE to the point that this is evoking less excitement from me than a level update.
Also, I actually prefer the wheel significantly to the prize box if you are going to have to give us random prizes. The major complaint about the wheel was that it was random, NOT about the wheel mechanic itself. Why wheel is better than prize boxes:
- It is exciting to watch the wheel spin and pass near prizes you want whereas prize boxes you know what you receive immediately.
- The wheel is better at showing off the prizes that you may receive because you pay attention to the wedges of the wheel while you're spinning.
I'm not quick to criticize, but EA you really messed this event up. This is easily the worst major event in the history of Tapped Out. There's almost 0 new content accessible for most players and we play and we don't know when we'll actually receive anything. The entire mechanics of this event is fundamentally flawed so I don't know how you guys will rectify this.
Not sure if everyone else has noticed this, but with the "guarantee"s, it is 80 boxes SPECIFIC to each Egg color. So 80+80+80 = 240 boxes needed to completely guarantee all the prizes.
Even purchasing the Barn of Eggs you only get about 22 boxes.
Only way I can see EA saving this event is to simply move the eggs needed per box to a less number, like 100.
For those of you that think this can be pulled off, even for premium users, I'd like to see your math. I'm convinced, like others here, that this Event is a complete disaster. I genuinely want to be convinced otherwise though...
