This is awful. First off V-Day was terrible. It was long. It was a nightmare. But I figured with all the time they took to get us a new update, they must be working on something big...something to make up for a disappointing V-Day. But they followed up with an even worse update.
What is the point of this? Why is EA so concerned with us visiting friends? What's the big deal if we don't? They create 6 levels and 5 prizes to get us to visit friends? What a joke. Why couldn't they have just made 5 new levels with 5 storylines? Again, it's not a big deal if we level up without visiting friends.
The prizes are awful. Ohmec Head just sits there doing nothing, the restaurant is somewhat ugly and oddly shaped, snowball 2 does literally nothing, Stampy has 2 tasks instead of 7-8 like he should have, and Homer's car is the worst of all. Now people will want to stick Homer's car in the driveway. The problem is we cannot do that without pushing the Simpson house way back. But if we do that, it no longer lines up with the other houses in the neighborhood. Pushing them all back takes way too much time and EA shouldn't force us to do that, especially since it'll look dumb.
Also, none of the prizes have questlines like an actual level update would have had. Well guess what? Joke's on you, EA. I refuse to visit. Instead, I rushed everything with donuts. And that's another issue in itself. I, as a premium player, get punished once again for being a premium player because now I have nothing to do since I have everything and there are no questlines.
Oh, I was wondering when Josh would chime in. Thanks for your insights, I always love reading what you have to say. You always make me laugh, don't ever leave.

Also, no one is holding a gun to your head to force you to visit friends. You do so on your own accord.
My device is fine. It takes 1-3 seconds to load which, when visiting 100 friends a day adds up to a lot.
I have an iPhone 5S and operate on the latest iOS... it still takes me at least 20 minutes to visit all 100 neighbors. It's incredibly tedious.
Show us Stampy!

We're not friends yet? Sure, send it. I'm guessing some people removed me anyway during the V-Day event since I visited no one.
