Night M....Nevermind....apparently April Fools 😪

Oh yesss, I wanted a Night Mode for such a long time, but it was outruled from SC also a long time ago, sadly....

I agree with you, xkitty .

It's not the best idea at the part of SC to "play" with the desires of the players relating to the Night Mode. Sorry, but I can't laugh about this either. That joke is not funny anymore. 

Very disappointed in their joke. Maybe we should hit them where it hurts and not buy farm pass or diamonds for a month.

Hadn’t seen this until now. (Are we sure it’s for April Fools?)

I just hope that if it isn’t, it doesn’t backfire like it did in Clash with Builder’s Base. People had wanted night mode and direct pvp (player vs player) and whatever else, for a loooong time. It was ruled out for the game but then finally introduced in a “minigame” mode, with a second base. Some liked it but I think from the uproar, more people quite resented it taking time away from their main game. After a few updates, they’ve left it there as-is, unchanged for years.

Sometimes what we think we want isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

I’m more inclined to take it in the spirit with which April Fools is intended, as a joke. I don’t think they’d have done it if they thought for a second that people would think it was a malicious prank.

In these days of real-life stress and strife all over the world, (and I know I can only speak for myself) but I need a reason to have a chuckle whenever it presents itself. Even if I’m not in a creative enough mode to come up with something myself, I always look forward to seeing what things various companies and advertisers come up with on this day and if I haven’t run across any, the whole day feels like somewhat of a let-down, lol.

Take heart—an update may be coming soon to cheer people up again. *Hugs*

Supercell have implemented several things that were once upon a time "ruled out", so you never know! This is also a feature I requested many years ago and hope at some point it happens! 

I read all that, thanks. My point was just to say that just because an idea is ruled out now, doesn't mean it will always be the case 🙂.

That, gifting of diamonds and others!

THX for pointing out your view of things. Hopefully you are right and maybe a miracle occurs some day in the future not far away and we're getting the Night- Mode. So many players are longing to this special feature. I'm convinced SC is aware of this....

Good Point!

And I agree, I would want it to be optional!

When the wish for a Night-Mode come up in the first place (way years back in the past) it was clear that it has to be an optional thing due to the different time zones.

So, I think....IF it's gonna happen some time in the future (I for myself have given up hope, but that's my personal opinion) SC will introduce it with the choice to activate it or not. I take it that they'll have that in their mind.

THX for your point of view. Your arguments are valid, no doubt about it. And yes, I agree with you that it would have been better to implement such a thing in the very beginning of HayDay.

Honestly, I can't contradict what you stated, it's logical and comprehensible. Normally I'd never written so much about this special theme, as I know it would be for nothing, Night-Mode is out of play. I've blocked that in my mind but became remembered with the April Fool's of SC.

I don't imply that SC wanted to displease us with their "joke", but it wasn't a good idea to dig out a desired feature without the intention ever implementing it.

Thanks Cowslips for the info. I do not know about programming so I cannot judge how easy or difficult to include such a feature. Definitely, I think that there are different aspects that must be improved in the game and the priority must be for such improvements.

My personal point is to see this feature in the game in the future. I am playing another game, the developer has introduced Night-Day feature as the players wanted, it is optional as it should be so the players that do not want do not use the N-D feature, and the time-zone is location-based (so when one travels to another time-zone, N-D changes according to that time-zone).

Any feature introduced in a game becomes ordinary within time, and it is inevitable - natural. E.g., derbies are pretty ordinary for me and my trading group. So, such features may give joy to some players for a period of time until they become ordinary and introducing such features can also send the message to the players that the developer is paying attention to the wish of the players, which is important imo as the players want to support a game that they love.

I think the other point is that making the wish of the players subject of April joke and the reply from SP upon the reaction of some players "sorry, we had to do what we had to do" is not the best approach, and that's what made some players surprised or upset or irritated, including myself. Personally hope that SP will be a little bit more careful before making a joke publicly.

We all love this game and hoping to see new features or improvements (a town update with a new land without permits would be great!).

Happy farming to all players.
