Rainbow Plushies Ruining the Game

[StormyWanderer]

I was so excited for the new plushies but the rarity of the butterfly wasn't changed so now every in game day at 3 am DOZENS of people swarm the bluffs and pavel area scrambling to MAYBE find a rainbow, and if you want to do anything other than that you can't even do other things cause the amount of ppl scrambling to get that plushie is scaring the other bugs and critters away. And I can't even imagine how frustrating it would be to try and find your first rainbow for the bundles only for all the rainbows to by gone for plushies.

They really didnt think this through when they released this.

Constant increases to grind are the only way to retain players when you refuse to add more content, because you are too busy pumping the cash shop with cosmetics. Plushies used to be far more common in the early days, then got a massive nerf. It's like the bugs that only spawn randomly (10% chance) when you mine rocks / pick plants having 1/1,000 chance (I'm serious) for a plushie, which means the real rate is 1/10,000. Who in their right mind would want to grind that.

they should have made that plushie something you could buy for guild coins instead. would still have been a grind for players without the coins and wouldnt get in the way of new players doing the bundle

I get the grind but still at least raise the spawn rate a fraction it's so bad.

A super expensive guild item would be more accessible and would encourage team work like the game intended because you'd have to grind for any and all bugs which would result in community honey lures. Much better

I like this grind! :) And the fact that a lot of players "grind" at the beginning will become normal over time.

And basically it's about organizing yourself with others and not doing your own thing. Just like in the normal world.

How nice it would be if we worked together. You can learn how to do it here. At least that's my impression! And it can be frustrating, of course, but there are solutions for everything.

Like I said above, I dont mind the grind, I mind how this has caused people to become rude in their panic and rush to get the plush in addition to the excessive amount of disruption to Bahari as people scramble to find a rainbow. The disruption causing critters to run off and "spook", despawning and leaving other players with nothing they need for the quests they're doing.

Also as far as grinding I've already acquired all epic loot and critters with the exception of the flow tree seeds and I've already finished the story plot and 90% of the npc quests so that's really not the issue.

Then I don't understand, if you already have everything else, why you can't be a little more patient here and even talk about ruining the game with these butterflies.

If you are experienced, you must know the solutions! :)

You didn't read any 9th the comments did you. We literally talked about solutions above. Please clown somewhere else with you toxic positivity.

Ich habe mir die Mühe gemacht in deiner Sprache zu schreiben. Aber das wird mir zu umständlich.

Du wirkst garstig auf mich!
Ich habe das Thema und die Kommentare gelesen. Deshalb habe ich dann auch geantwortet.
Dein Thema war: "Rainbow Plushies Ruining the Game" und nicht Lösungen.
Bin raus hier nun, have fun!

"I have made the effort to write in your language. But that is too cumbersome for me.

You seem horrible to me!
I read the topic and the comments. That's why I replied.
Your topic was: "Rainbow Plushies Ruining the Game" and not solutions.
I'm out of here now, have fun"

While blantently ignoring the comment above from orthographe about a different way to implement it and my response agreeing and why that would be better.

You're sealioning, dog whistling, attempting to troll as if Google translate didn't exist 😂

Yes I'm a horrible person I hope it haunts you. Just cause it's Palia doesn't meant I'm not a C U Next Tuesday on main. You came in, ignored the points made, made it seem as if I don't know how or don't like how the game is played, played it off as if the game doesn't have its down sides (fyi, being toxicly positive to the point of rejecting valid criticisms) and then blantly lied and said we don't have solutions.

AGAIN, I hope I now live rent free in your head. Don't post in public forums and not expect a fact check.

Lösungen, so wie es jetzt von den Entwicklern integriert ist mit dem "grind", meinte ich.

[*Spielfee*]

Hier stehen bisher nur Lösungen ohne den "grind". Oder Droprate ändern ist auch nicht toll, es soll ja etwas besonderes sein der Schmetterling.

[*Spielfee*]

Ich hätte da ein paar Lösungen:

* Man kann den Server wechseln und vielleicht werden dort gerade die Regenbogenfalter nicht gejagt
* Man kann etwas geduldig sein und sich erst nach dem großen Run auf das Sammeln des Regenbogenfalter-Plüschtiers konzentrieren
* Man kann auf einem Server einen Aufruf starten und dann gemeinsam "grinden".
* Man kann vor Ort / in der Nähe mit den Spielern in Kontakt treten und sich absprechen.
* Man kann einen Honigköder verwenden.
* Man kann sich mit vielen Freunden auf einem Server treffen und somit die Serveranzahl der fremden Spieler reduzieren (wie viele Spieler gehen auf einen Server?) und dann gemeinsam "grinden".
* ...

Weitere Lösungen?

I have a few solutions:

* You can change servers and maybe the rainbow butterflies aren't being hunted there
* You can be a little patient and only concentrate on collecting the rainbow butterfly plush toy after the big run
* You can start a call on a server and then "grind" together.
* You can get in touch with the players locally / nearby and coordinate.
* You can use a honey bait.
* You can meet up with lots of friends on a server and this reduce the number of strangers on the server (how many players go on a server?) and then "grind" together.
* ...

Other solutions?

not to ruin those rose tinted glasses youre wearing about the rainbow tipped butterfly's spawn rate but i have over 1k hours in this game and ive seen that bug maybe 10 times and i run around bahari a lot. even with honey lures ive seen it spawn like once. its *rare* and none of this helps any new players who still need the butterfly for the bundle or players who generally *prefer* to play solo or arent great with english and might struggle finding people to team up with.

i really dont understand why you're so hung up about this subject either like?? auni basically has nothing worth grinding for, so adding a plushie for him to sell would still encourage people to team up with honey lures to grind weeklies and levels - its just that the devs never seem to think things through and anything guild related (outside of tish) seems forgotten about. just make the plush 700 coins or something, and give people a reason to play without getting in the way of others trying to enjoy the game at their own pace. i dont always want to socialize, i often play this game solo because its peaceful and i can go at my own pace. i, among others, shouldnt be penalized for it.

The best part about this is it's an honest critics and I did submit feedback to the devs to encourage improvement.

And like you said he doesn't have anything to grind for, neither does Hassian, so encouraging a guild shop grind would be a massive improvement.

Also the thing about encouraging group play for a rare bug and not guild points is rare bugs ARE NOT SHARED LOOT, just like hunting loot. Unless you get your shot in only the ppl who saw it first are getting it. I actually hate having people use my honey lures without asking first cause I've been in parties with newbies and trying to help them only for some rando snag the rare loot and then ♥♥♥♥ off with out consideration to what they just did to the newbie I was helping. It's the worst and it's really frustrating for those ppl.

More teamwork being added to the game to keep things cozy is way better than grinding BY FAR. I'm all for gring but I still need the game to be cozy at the end of the day.
