Master Fairy Zebra





Wow. Just how stupid does Zynga think Farmville players are?



They've made the latest Fairy Hollow Quest absolutely undoable. The whole quest is alloted only 14 days - but the fairy zebra does not go in any of the pens and takes 3 days to harvest - AND it has to be harvested 5 times to complete the quest. Last I looked, 5 * 3 was 15 - and you don't even get the stupid thing until you're more than halfway through.




Nice.



They have posted it as a known issue. No kidding. Issues with the critters in quests have been a recurring theme lately.




And excuse me, but ANYONE with even the littlest bit of understanding of object oriented programming knows that once you've done the code for one critter, you've got the code for all.



They know how to change the variables to allow the thing into the pen. Or, they know how to change it so that it is a more reasonable 1 day harvest. Or, they know how to change the quest so that this step is not required.




None of which they have done. Instead, they are no doubt watching the FC roll in as some people pay to use instagrow. Not caring about the other players they are losing because of slimy underhanded business practices like these.




SUCH a rip off, and very badly done.



And absolutely intentional in my opinion.


They are killing off Farmville. Why, I have no idea. But they definitely seem determined.
