Sadly I say that Most of events aren't necessary. In my opinion, you have taken a big wrong step Weekly events. you are a small team working on 2 games and you haven't planned for the future now you don't have time to make a new events only recycle the old events, I remember fishing event 2015 I have finished this event in the last week it was very interesting but now the events are Cooking, Dragon, Dino etc.. This events aren't related to transformice gameplay and It hasn't meaning either, you have announced that this events won't back again HERE, Also the Collector you have announced that it won't back again HERE and you said that "It's hard to buy them" why did you make it again? I loved this game when it was simple no Cafe, Election these things aren't important. Last year there was only one new event, In my opinion I think they won't make new events because they don't have time so you should change this system Weekly events and return again to the old system long events with new ideas, you will have time to think about making new ideas for events like the past and remove the events that aren't important. The last thing I would say that in my opinion admins should listen to players opinions. I hope TFM will back to normal soon and HAPPY BIRTHDAY TFM <3

Bruno a dit :

Well, how you didn't expect this happening, after a year of no good updates (new features in game)... You started abandoning Transformice in the end of 2016, it's really not hard to notice that... You were too busy with Dead Maze and rarely added something new to Transformice (not counting events and shop items). You needed to react before this happened, but you still have time to save the game, better start doing it soon, before it gets too late...

Ok, here are some suggestions for Transformice :

Spoiler:)

1. Update Map Editor. - Last time you updated it was in 2014, and that were only new decorations for maps, Map Editor is really important for the game (For Map Crew members, for making maps in general...) It should get more ground and other stuff, I'm not into Map Editor much, but I would like to see it updated...

Changes in Events (Adventure Calendar, better rewards). - You could add Titles for Adventure Points to make it more useful, and I'm sure that more players would play recycled events to get title. Adventure Calendar used to be fun at the beggining, we used to get points for example in Hugging 2017 events "Hug member with same pet" and it was better than now, now we just have to grind to 50-60 event collectables to get new title, also rewards are getting worse and worse we got 2 events and only 1 new title for each event, where are most valuable rewards? (badges, cartouches)...

3. Daily reward system or mission/tasks - This would be really nice idea, for example we get task "Complete 20 Racing maps" and after we complete it get some rewards cheese coins, fraise, or just inventory items. This would make players play Racing, Survivor and other game modes or whatever...

+ There are more amazing suggestions on forum, you should check it more often.

Things that should be removed from the game/forums

Spoiler

1. Election - I never liked it in TFM, It's not special thing and I've noticed that people barely use that these days (at least in EN servers), I really don't see point of it, an people use insults in description sometimes...

2. Remove Defilante and Music rooms - Those aren't active really and I never saw much players in these, you could bring player to Defilante if you add coins like Survivor and Racing, but if you won't do that, remove these rooms or make them modules, but still I think it would stay same with amount of players...

Delete Fortoresse, Nekodancer, Bouboum and it's forums. - I don't know why are you waiting for 2020 to remove them, you won't update them anyway, so why waiting? And you even don't get any money from them, and I'd say that they even don't have 50 people that often plays them...

Forums are good don't remove anything from them :)

I'm hoping that it will back to normal for Transformice and Atelier 801 soon <3!

Well, I'd like to give some feedback on your suggestions (which I do not agree):

1 - I do not think removing Defilante and Music rooms is really necessary. There are people who play there (for more than a few) and it would be a bit of disregard for them, and it is not something that harms the game in any way. Maybe upgrading them and making them more interesting is better than removing them.

2 - I do not think it's necessary to remove the game either. They are interesting games and however outdated they are still fun to play (and there are people who play). Regarding the forum, I think they could unify everyone with an "Atelier 801 Other Games" section and put subsections related to the games.

Sugestão:
Parem de se preocupar com o Transformice agora. Só nunca deixem o jogo sem eventos, porém esqueçam ele em todos os outros quesitos e foquem em criar um Transformice 2 com recursos específicos que vocês acham essenciais e que estão próximos de serem feitos (nada muito difícil). Óbvio, isso tudo ultilizando o HTML5 e por favor, uma boa linguagem de programação.
Quando o novo Transformice atingir certo nível de produção vocês migram as contas dos jogadores para lá e apagam o Transformice antigo.
Sei que é algo difícil e complicado, mas me parece uma solução boa! Algo que realmente vai resolver, não será só um band-aid para quem perdeu o braço.

You are going to struggle to remove features because a lot of the people who play now came into the game with all those features in place, it is normal to them.

1. Cafe and Elections are pointless features - seeing as many children play this game you probably should not promote a popularity contest (elections) anyway, but there is no real benefit of winning elections and has there ever been a useful poll from a president? Cafe is full of spam and barely monitored.

2. Troll maps are funny for April Fools (not really) - leaving them in rotation so shams lose their turn and points is not

3(a). Feedback on events has been given for years, most has been ignored. Why should old players have to grind an entire event to get 1 new title when a new player can get 4 titles, a badge and a cartouche for the same effort? Those who have already completed the event should have less to work on the next time it comes up - also, does anyone remember when the event tokens were meant to be saved and carried over to the next event? Never actually happened, but it would give people a bit of motivation to keep playing after they've finished. (Aware there may be a knock on effect, less effort for next event so less playtime)

3(b). Events that were reported broken (e.g. Charlotte had the same issue with the bar not filling in the previous year) were fixed at the time but then implemented again this year broken. Rather than fix you just added the rewards into the NPC shop for the next event - what message does that give to people who tried hard to complete the event in the given timeframe? If an event is reported as broken the previous year, either fix it for the next or do not add it in again?

3(c). You prevented event farming. Yes I know it broke rooms and could be annoying, but it was ultimately a large group of the community coming together to work on the event together, and that made it fun. Rather than revert back to previous event system you just removed the event farming ability and more players lost interest.

3(d). Few players will have time to grind on a 1 or 2 week event so just won't bother - kids have school, adults have jobs etc. (also aware some players still have time, but others do not). Events should not be based on teamwork, too many trolls and afks.

4. Profile is too cluttered - it doesnt matter how many badges or titles I get because 99% of players are not going to look through my profile.

5. Adventure points are worthless - again, 99% of players are not going to look through my profile to see which events I have played. I do not find additional points for repeating an event very rewarding.

All just my opinion and sadly I can see Dead Maze going the same way - things suggested re. rep and clothing are being ignored but you are insistant on putting a map editor and pvp in there. if you take anything from your experience with TFM - fix the base game first and listen to your players.

Reading this breaks my heart.
I've been on tfm since 2011, 7 years of my life most I've ever spent on anything.
No matter if you add or take away events, or take away sham skills. It's always going to be 50/50, by half of the people being happy and the other half angry, do what you have to do. If you have to take away everything to keep the basic tfm then go and do it. It's better then being a bankrupt company.
My wishes to A801 and TFM
Thank you for the years of fun.
