    Wanderer got a reaction from deadeasy in test server   
    I hate having to come in here and moan but it appears that we are totally and utterly ignored unless we are on the DE servers.
    EN players cannot log into the test servers to give their feedback.
    It feels like there is a them (DE) and us (EN) where they get listened to.
    I will say that parts of the game are a lot easier but the AI which tells us which port it suggests doesn't take the time left into account and it can't be finished in time. Yet there's usually a port that is a lower % but has enough time to complete the assignment
    It used to be fun with a lot of banter. Most 4 man companies are facing a possible cull in the future if any players quit.
    It seems that companies can tout for new players in any chat they like.
    The general chat has gone downhill rapidly and not a sign of a moderator is to be seen.
    The playing field MUST be levelled. I could go on for hours.

    The lazy coders copied Easter event for Christmas event... this event sucks
    So... in PRN I have 28900 in Christma's stock, it takes 80 clicks to clear this. FYI coders.
    Is the idea that senior citizens click 100 per day like "decathlon" old game.... 
    I boycott moronic games like Eastern event and recommend you do the same.
    Seems coders here are super lazy, they don't test anything and leave the for players... lol
    I'm getting kinda angry in this game, and that's not the idea!
    And what Idea is fish oil for chocolate? As good idea as everything in Fish Factory recipes, as they are all false...

    Oh, one more thing almost forgot... seems at least several players complaining on public channel that the event cheats their ice crystals in upgrades.... well, consider the fact not all play 6-12h silly click-clicketi-click-event.... so they go away from this game being frustrated. Now again.. why did not anyone think... before actually doing something...
    Same crap is 12h seal nursing station. How the hell wants to play 12h clicking boats. Now I can undestand 6 and even 8 hours like a work day... but half a day? lol

    Wanderer reacted to callis in Companies and credits unbalanced   
    Hello everyone,
    After the major upgrade the changed about everything withing the game comes a serious problem for companies as there are only 3 ways to get credits:
    1) Fish Factory for Port Authority work
    2) Fish Factory excess work
    3) Public Contracts
    PA = Port Authority
    PC = Public Contract
    PA accepts only one job with tight time limit. I find it almost impossible to fullfil this 100% with our company memebers.
    This provides an average of 500-1m credits per day.
    Fish Factory excess work doesn't give much credits. These are products that go to your CO warehouse that are not accepted by PA.
    Public contracts:
    We got 6 players of level 162, 145, 139, 78, 22 and 15
    Now we all know that the average level of all players determine the CAP how much both PA demands and how much PC demands.
    So in our company, PC is 2414t
    If i run my all ships 100% bosted I can make some 500-600t in 2 hours and I have highest and best ships in our company.
    It's easy to calculate that with those players we cannot even theory pass the CAP.
    So how much credits our company spends per day? That depends on certifications available, but it's easily more than 1m credits.
    With the latest changes I've noticed there is no way to raise our company anymore.
    There's absolutely no way to raise HQ levels anymore...
    I run company so that playing this game is more challenging and fun, but kinda missing the point now...

    Indeed the event disappeared. Not a word as to where we ended up. I really stuck with it and was round about 30th last time i looked. Some of us can't be on at the precise time it ended. Even so not even an in game message to those that took part.
    That isn't only rude but it will stop players from playing future events. I'll be binning both games as soon as I cant keep the Captain's account going.

    Wanderer reacted to Seec in Easter 2019   
    Hello, sailors and captains,
    BigBait also celebrates Easter! On 18 April 2019 at 09:00 the Easter Island will be officially opened. Of course you will also get great rewards here, which you will get by trading Easter eggs.
    The event will end on 23 April 2019 at 09:00. So get your ships ready!


    On Easter Island you'll find several ports that will help you catch the rare Easter fish.

         

    To use a port you have to unlock it first. At the first port the unlocking is completely free, it doesn't matter which port you choose first.

        Harbour 1: Free of charge     Harbour 2: 20 Easter eggs or 25 gold bars     Harbour 3: 40 Easter eggs or 50 gold bars Each port can be upgraded to level five, which significantly increases your fish yield per minute:

    Level 1: 5t     Level 2: 10t = 10 Easter eggs Level 3: 15t = 20 Easter eggs Level 4: 20t = 35 Easter eggs Level 5: 25t = 50 Easter eggs The fish yield per minute can also be increased by motivating the crew. This booster lasts a total of 10 minutes and always increases the fish yield by 10 tons. Motivating costs a total of 3 gold bars. There is also the possibility to get a free boost which lasts only 2 minutes.


    In this additional display you will find useful information about Easter Island.
        Stock     Easter eggs     Fish yield per minute
    At the Easter factory you can turn your fish into Easter eggs. 



    Your current progress tells you how much chocolate you still have to make to receive a reward. The five Easter eggs you receive as a reward will always remain the same, only the current progress will increase by five each time.



    If you have collected enough Easter eggs you can exchange them at the exchange market for many great rewards.

    The painting Easter Breakfast 2019 runs for 3 days when activated. With this paint your ship can be seen that not only optically you get an improvement:
        Storage capacity: + 25%.     Working speed: +25%.     Ship experience: +20

    So that you also have some competition there is of course again a highscore where you can compete with other captains.



     The players who made it into the top 10 will be rewarded with an exclusive badge.


     
    We hope that you will enjoy the Easter event. We wish all players already now a happy Easter and a reflective time with your families.
    With nautical greetings,
    Your Big Bait Team

    Come on Devs. Every seasonal game that awards a "logo" CAN be won/gotten by everyone.
    Limiting the award to ONLY the top 10 is a travesty and is going to lose you players.
    The game has become a standing joke.
    Surely the award should be given out to players that reached x number of eggs over the event.
    PLEASE at least change this.
    Also PLEASE at least allow us in BB1 to buy gold on offer at the same time as BB2 or on as regular as on BB2.
    I understand you wanted BB1 to end but there a lot of people that still play and are being ignored.
    A comment from someone on high regarding these points would be very welcome.
    Lack of communication with the plebs WILL end with people not playing your games.

    I suppose no one is on over the holiday period.
    Easter leaderboard isn't working correctly.
    Upgraded all of the ports and the factory is at lvl 10 and the amount of fish needed for 5 eggs is astronomical.
    Back to the grindstone.

    It is a shame that it will die off because of the lack of interaction.
    There may be a language barrier problem given you thing that's the answer to all of my ideas and questions. I can assure you they are attempts to stop the decline. Nothing is ever seen as constructive criticism. It is always seen as abusive and although there are wind up merchants in the chats these should be dealt with without catching innocent people in the crossfire.
    Anyway! Such is life. It moves on. I have really enjoyed the strategies needed to do well in both games but it's all about how much gold can be sold to players. Even this event is designed to get people spending gold bars instead of working hard to get the achievement which is only some pixels thrown into a picture with nothing of value being given away.

    Wanderer got a reaction from jaydee in BB2: No fuel, half of the ships idling with all the players   
    100% agree. Throwing a recycle points in there was another slap in the face.
    If you play the game well and are making it work then Kit Kat break the game.
    It is hard enough to get tickets. Add to that how difficult it is to get the fuel and you slowly kill the game bar.
    Yes I have all building maxxed and the the warehouse upgrades are so expensive.
    They also screwed with the Company warehouses and upgrading them is now far too hard for a small company.

    Wanderer reacted to callis in BB2: No fuel, half of the ships idling with all the players   
    Heya,
    now when we cannot anymore get fuel from the bar with tickets, problem is that most players are idling.
    I'd idling 50% of my boats (I do not run them).
    5 gbar per day = 150 gbar monthly. Is this really your idea of a working game? LOL

    Chris Chan posted NO TICKETS for the CHEFS.
    The game is economy based. Fuel is under supplied. The only thing making up for that was the purple fuel won with tickets.
    The game will die without intervention to balance everything out.

    I can only echo this post.
    I got 3 tickets every day and it meant I spent more time playing the game.
    The experience given out from the Restaurant is nonsense. The rewards that used to be plus the tickets were fine.
    Now what?
    No tickets = struggling for fuel and other items. It was bad enough when you removed all of the gold items from sale. Ok granted they are coming up on an extremely random basis. Something like once or twice a week.
    If you want people to continue playing the PLEASE sort it out! We must have a way to get tickets that don't mean having to go up against the gold players (payers)

    Wanderer got a reaction from callis in BB2: Gaining gold bars, upkeeping captain's account   
    You are not wrong. I buy no gold in BB1 and very limited in BB2.
    Once my present gold runs out and I can't get the captains account then I'll be out of here.
    I used to get more enjoyment playing BB2 but I'll be playing in the sandbox that is BB1 more. I have nothing more to achieve in BB1
    The least that can be done in 2 is to bring out the 5 gold bars on certain assignments and fix the chefs.

    Wanderer reacted to callis in BB2: Gaining gold bars, upkeeping captain's account   
    I've seen few people mentioning spending $20 to upkeep cap account. This sound super silly to me, as I'd never spend a FB game montly $20. You can get real games for that price.
     
    Now, i've spent 2nd time 670 gbar for cap account: the 1st time it was a struggle to get gbars from port assignments and wheel of fortune back and I did it barely. Now i'm running 2nd time 3 months cap account, and it's clear there's no way of getting gbars back through port assignments. I play min 12h day.
    Devs do crappy job here in balancing game economy. Recent changes in last two months only decrease ingame gold bars and increase the need to use gold bars.
    As devs put "purchase real money" option in everywhere, they've clearly forgotten what these games are all about. If you investor says "more money and fast", and you screw the game economy while doing so, you'll lose the rest of the player in process.
    Next 2-3 months will definitely show whether or not this game has reached its end line.
    I also do dislike things like they do in BB1.. like stop developing game and accepting new players. So it's a sandbox game for older players.
    I would not be surprised to see BB3 and same shit happening BB2.

    Hello,
    now that the new patch hit today Thursday, it seems one does not get tickets anymore from restaurant. This means players get gold only from port assignments, which is crappy. One cannot upkeep with cap account anymore, which in my opinion reflects the point how 'playable' this game is.
    2nd problem comes from the fact, cooks no more provide items and you can only create certain type of items by yourself. Now to the point: one cannot get experience emblems anymore except from using bars to buy them? One used to be able to craft them before.
    I'm getting pissed of the feeling the devs here provide us: everything pays more less playable, and especially it's clear the 'gold bar' option has put everywhere to the point where only an utter idiot would use it.
     
  25. Thanks
    Wanderer reacted to CaptainIglo in Quayside Bar   
    Perhaps it's now a good time to put this building either to rest or give it a new purpose as gaining tickets for extra items,fuel,shipboard computers, cap.acc,gold bars and even those rediculous 100 recycle points it's almost impossible and it's now only for the few 'elite' players who gaining one or more tickets to be in the top 100 or win in another competion.
    The most of players who aren't be able to win in such event are left in the cold now, alltough it was a great idea for givin the production building a new makeover , it's a pitty that now with the makeover of the chefs, noone is be able to gain anymore tickets to play in the quayside bar building.
    Can any staff member or developper respond on the needs of the many , many players that still play's  BB2 as i fear this new update without having a chance of a few tickets' a day isn't a very good idea to keep this game having a running community as i watch general chat's, company chat's and forum and 95% of the players isn't happy about no more free tickets.
