sunday u'll get the new item for free: Duff BlimpAlanSherer wrote:All good and well this update but I already have both items. What do the older players get from this update? Nothing.
There better be more to come from this update EA because it is pathetic. There should be some new stuff so the older players get something out of this update. You should be wanting to please the older players more seeing how they are the loyal ones who have stuck with the game for over a year.
A massive kick in the teeth to the older players.
Well done EA.
can't post picture cause it's unreleased atm

Well I joined just before Halloween 2012 but for some reason missed out on the Duff Racer but even if I had it I'm sure other older players missed out on this so good for them to have a chance now to get it

So in other words us the long time Paying players who cant access our games for 15+ days guess we are just out of luck WAY TO GO EA TOP NOTCH CUSTOMER SERVICE.

My teeth, however, do not feel kicked. My jimmies are unrustled.
A new quest line is always good just for variety, and we will get a couple of donuts too. They could have just not done anything at all, I'm sure you would have preferred that.
For the win.
It's hard to tell if you are just trolling, are a hipster, or are just extremely self-centered.
This isn't an "update," it's a Super Bowl promotion - because the game is on Fox. To promote the SB, they introduce a tiny questline along with some limited-time items that are in high demand. The game doesn't "owe" you anything, and year-plus players are very much a minority of players. I'm sorry if you are losing the "I was here first" status, but that's inconsequential to most people, and especially to EA. I already have two of the busses and the racer, so just like you I won't be getting anything new (other than the blimp released on Sunday). I also wasn't expecting to get anything today, nor do I have a problem with other people being able to get what I already have. It's not a big deal. There will be plenty of new stuff to come along for you to acquire.
:thumbup:
If the mistreatment at the hands of EA is so terrible than quit the game and stop posting on the forum.
I've played the game since day one and I feel this update is just fine. It doesn't feel at all like I was kicked in the teeth.
I hope the people on my friends list that are getting the Duff Racer are really happy with it.
Wow what a coincidence. My knickers aren't in a twist, bunched or in a knot either.
I've been playing since fall of 2012. It honestly doesn't bother me if new players or older players that missed out on things the first time they were out get the opportunity to get them. It takes nothing away from my Springfield or my enjoyment of the game. If this were a competitive game I could understand why someone might be bothered by it. Then again if this was a competitive game it wouldn't be as much fun. Let's be honest, the majority of people upset about limited items being re-released likely wouldn't be in the top 10, 20 or even 100 in a competitive game since those spots are almost always filled by people who have either spent a ridiculous amount of money or hacked the game.
I really hope they re-release all the limited time stuff for people. I know the Mapple store will be hard to do, but if there's a way they can re-release it for players on Apple devices and simultaneously release something comparable for players on Android devices; then, that would be cool.
I wouldn't lose hope for the Mapple store though. EA has never said why it isn't available, and I personally doubt that it has anything to do with android vs apple. It wasn't long after the Mapple store that the android version was released, so the android thing was probably already in the works. Indeed I would say they probably always intended to bring it to android, it just takes longer because of the amount of operating system versions that are out there for android devices.
Ok so you're just blatantly ignoring the new blimp and seven donuts because they don't fit in with your argument then?
Good point. It didn't occur to me that you might be able to get into your Springfield from either platform if you have devices with both. I was just thinking of it from the point of view that there might be an issue with what could be perceived as a thinly veiled advertisement for Apple on Android devices. Not saying I look at it like that, but I can see how people would look at it like that. Heck after being here for a few months, I'm starting to see how people can think a lot of things. I may need to start crafting a tinfoil hat.
Duff Blimp.
Donuts.
I think you may mean not enough new to please you rather than nothing new.
