The Holiday Dinner – Goals and Mission
First, the 7 goals. I am not going to go into the specifics of the goals here, since they are posted all over the internet, I AM going to go into the glitch that is making it impossible for numerous Café World cooks (players, lol) to be able to finish the goals. The glitch is the inability to send out RSVP’s to your neighbors while asking them to help you finish whichever goal you are on.
In these 7 goals, they ask you to ask your neighbors for help getting various items. You either ask your neighbors or you pay an exorbitant amount of café cash to finish each part of the goal that requires it.
I cannot offer any assistance on this issue, Zynga knows ALL about this problem, they apparently have yet to fix it. I DID encounter this glitch just about every time I went to send out requests. “Sorry, something went wrong in the kitchen” would come up instead of a list of your Café World neighbors. I just kept trying until the actual list would come up. I would send out a LOT of requests on one thing just to make sure I got them out because, apparently, no-one is immune to this particular glitch. When I tried to send the requests, another error message would come up, same error message as before. But, I had already hit the send button and found out even though that error message is coming up, the requests were sent anyway.
I eeked through that 7 goal list. The final goal has 30 requests that you have to get filled up, which in turn is making a lot of people made because many of them simply can’t send out any requests at all.
Moving on.
The Holiday Dinner Mission.
I like this mission, but a lot of people are hating it. Many of them have one or another dish that is in the mission locked, even though they did everything necessary to unlock them. The dishes you have to cook and serve are: Waldorf Salad; Baked Ham and Angel Slices. MANY people don’t even HAVE the Angel Slices, making the mission impossible to complete on their own. So, those people head straight to the Café World discussion board, venting and ranting about the situation.
I feel for those people, but, it IS possible to finish the mission if you have neighbors that are able to cook the dishes that you cannot.
The point? Another Zynga classic blunder. Putting out a Christmas mission that SO many people can’t even participate in because of the numerous glitches. I mean, it’s what, 10 days until Christmas?
On another note, Zynga apparently is finally getting a clue. You know that ugly Crane machine that looks like it belongs in a circus that you might have built, put in your café and then found out you can’t remove it from your café? You know, the one that, after you built it, doesn’t WORK?!!!! Well, on the boards, a moderator posted yesterday that Zynga is doing a trial run to see how well it works and whatever glitches might be encountered. It’s not IF a glitch is encountered, at least not from my perspective, it’s how MANY will be encountered. So, 3,000 people and 3,000 only are going to have that thing up and running in their cafes. THIS is the way they should do ALL of their new rollouts. Get a group of players that will test it (preferably without all the griping about the glitches they are going to encounter, since they are voluntarily being Guinea Pigs) FIRST before rolling it out to everyone.
Since we’re almost at Christmas, I would also like to gripe about one more thing in this game: the lack of a freaking Christmas tree to be able to put INSIDE of your café. They have one for the outside of it, great. How many people put a Christmas tree outside? If they do, they probably also have one INSIDE as well. They’ve come out with everything BUT an indoor Christmas tree!
I’m not all mad and upset about Café World and what’s going on, I’m just expressing my discontent with a game that is bugged with all kinds of known glitches that are never fixed. There are far too many bugs with the game that have plagued the game for SO long, it's a bit ridiculous that they continue to bring out new goals, missions and other things yet they don't seem to get it: FIX the EXISTING issues!
