Ok this lovely topic has really started heating up again. So I'm gonna do my best to explain exactly why Zynga doesn't feel like the nursery barn should create FV Cash Horses and Cows.
People base their argument on "But Trees Grow and they are in the market" Blah Blah Blah.The Trees that can be shared are almost always the Level 2 Trees, which are in the market, but Zynga really only puts the Level 2 Trees in the market as extra "gravy", meaning there is no need for them to sale them, but that's just some extra money from Impatient folks. So until every Level 1 Tree can be grown up and shared, this is a sham of an argument.
Based on this argument, the Foals and Calves should be in the Market for Twice the Cash of the Adult Animals, right?
Remember if the Foals/Calves, if the Cash ones Grew into the Adult, it would
1) Create Rage by those that pay Real Money for the Adult
2) Plummet the Sales of Horses/Cows faster than if they Did a Mystery Game of 30 Cash Uninteresting Rams…
I'd guess a lot of you likely weren't playing the one time that a Cash Horse Foal Grew up into the Adult Cash Horse.
For a few hours after the Haflinger Horse and foal were released, the Nursery WAS growing those Foals into the FV$ Horse, and I saw the forums explode in both RAGE and HAPPINESS.
Rage because folks spent REAL LIFE MONEY on buying the Horse. And happiness because folks were able to get a free FV$ Horse!
And with quick action Zynga quickly modified the game code to make the Haflinger Foal now grow into a black foal.
Because Zynga Really does care more about the Rage of the Paying Players than the Happiness of the Free Players.
A Friend the other day told me his opinion of Farmville and all Zynga games in general.
"Free To Play, Pay To Win"
And that's the bottom line on the Nursery, Its about Money and how Zynga doesn't wanna drive off Horse/Cow Buyers.
And the Nursery Produces the following Adults Currently
And the Former Adults Possible:
