Remove 2012 Holiday Content

[queenbtchimaboss]

What annoys me is I lost (actually someone stole it on Christmas eve) my phone for a week and lost ALL of the work I put in before christmas and with that lost the opportunity to get the ovens I wanted before they were removed... and also didnt get to finish the christmas goals...

Except for you know, new players. And also most people who play this game casually. It's daunting enough to play through all the limited time goals that require 40 of everything, and then you have to worry about all these recipes and appliances you haven't gotten to try yet disappearing before you get to them. When I started playing I added tons of neighbors who were also starting out. Most of them quit around level 20. I get making decor items limited edition and all, but the recipes? there shouldn't be a time limit so people can play as much or as little as they want, when they want it. I think the only way pulling them makes sense is if they plan to re-release them again later.

Hi. Just to clarify, I was writing in regards to new players, on the basis that my bakery, though its old, still maintains its equilibrium on new recipes using just 1 - 4 specialty appliances at a go.

I meant that every player can, from the time THEY begin the game, cook the recipes as they roll out and successfully master new recipes with the same opportunity as everyone else. If they add all the original recipes to their list, then the bakery becomes challenging. If you then add all the recipes that have been added over time and not removed I believe the goal of having and baking everything becomes impossible. It's impossible because new content is added every week. No one could bake every recipe unless they were playing from the first year. This not a bad thing! Because a player starting today could never catch up, which is frustrating, they sort out "seasonal" recipes and replace them with new recipes. No one is "losing" opportunities to earn gems, and the new player still has so much more cool content to be in with.

I hope this clears up my point.

As someone who purchased a lot of ovens (sometimes up to 10) because I liked the recipes and wanted to cook them at the proper season, I am outraged. What's next, out table's and wallpaper disappearing out of our bakeries? I made more truffle makers and chocolate dippers to make the valentines recipies this year, and very disappointed.

Especially considering they said they were pulling holiday items from 2012 but they pulled things like the valentines cookies and egg nog which have been in the game since 2010!! What they have done is so wrong. I haven't mastered recipes like that yet cause I figured they would be there forever like they had been. There is not a stitch of enjoyment left in these games as of right now. They need to rectify this monumental mistake ASAP!

I second this.

not a stitch of enjoyment is precisely what they need to sell their lousy new gemstuff

was toad in a hole removed?

I don't understand why if we master something they still can take it away...make up your minds please! For example... in restaurant story the turtle soup is gone... but excuse me i had that one mastered ages ago...but it's gone. so is the chocolate milk. Yet BS just brough back the love muffins and oooo looks like i had the mastered at level 4 too. so why did it ever disppear in the first place? this just confused me and makes me angry sorry if others don't agree but you can't change my mind about the situation, It stinks!!!

why some of the xmas recipes (e.g. Holiday Waffles) stays at iOS but disappear in the Android platform? Are those recipes being removed as well?
