Ok and the watering challenge is dead indeed, i don't think it's winnable anymore even without malus.

Pfouuuu, got my 3 keys, but this is way more stressful now.
Yeah, the watering challenge just turned from easy to hard. I still think it's doable but not currently because someone decided Feudalife isn't hard enough without running it smoothly. I'm getting random freezes while playing and it's throwing my timing off. Still did manage to get 3 keys since I'm just that good with Feudalife.

That was worth it, i got 2 duplicates and a key for Commandos 3 that i already have so i can't know yet if it's a duplicate, but there is a good probability from what i read here these days...

We had a good run with those little challenges and all those keys from Indiegala, but it seems like all good things come to an end.

I mean.. instead of 5-6 keys i would use to get, i now get 4 keys per day, assuming the malus stays at 6 seconds. I'm pretty fine with that 😄, and it's still hella nice at 3 or even 2. Getting daily steam keys despite having a chance for dupes is still almost as good as the giveaways we had with gleam back in days. I'm surprised the original 4 malus structure was feasible for such a long time on their supply of keys, given how many wins per day one could've potentially get.

Watering's still doable, but way more annoying now, partially because of my muscle memory, but mostly because now the highlight is a lie.
I can understand making the challenge tougher by requiring precise targeting. But for that to work well they'd first need to actually make targeting work reliably (which they didn't, judging how in AFFIRMATIVE's video you can still water the plant behind you, if you do it too fast), and either make highlight appear only when you're actually on target or not appear at all.

It requires almost surgical precision now , even struggled at 54 sec , altough lately I have been much worser at challenges in general , like I have some kind of challenge fatigue :ROFLMAO:

Instead of "dynamic malus," why not limit the amount of keys a person can win in a day?
My guess is they don't want to throw away the malus system because it's at least partially there to encourage purchases and giveaway participation and not just to limit amount of keys won per player.
Replacing it with a static keys per day limit, would feel like a downgrade to me personally.

So positive feedback worked for a day or two before breaking again? :ROFLMAO:
I was thinking maybe something got broken when they did the tweak/patch where they downgraded the starting malus from 10 sec to 9 sec because it reportedly worked before that, and I think the tweak was on the same day as Zolivv reported it works (or maybe the next day?)

careful with that opinion around here FreaKill, you'll get labeled as "defender of a deterioration" if you do that.

(PS: very happy that somebody agrees with my opinion that removing the malus reduction for purchases in favor of a flat limit of winnable keys per player would be a downgrade , and an unfair one at that)

I'm trying to play feudal challenges but I can't because of the message "You don't have enough galacredit to play..." and I have 200 galacredits.

I think the time i said it worked was not for the malus reduction for positive feedebacks but for purchasing something in the store, a 2 or 3 weeks ago. I don't remember seeing the positive feedback malus reduction work since months ago when it disappeared.

Is the plant watering challenge working really weirdly since the latest update (today, 10th march) for anybody else? I'm not sure this is intended, but the plant is highlighted but does not get watered unless the position is absolutely accurate (before today's update, if the plant was highlighted, it also got watered, but not anymore)
Today plants stage works weird for me too, I failed 3 times, as u said I think you have to be 100% accurate positioning to do it correctly sometimes when I thought I was well positioned the watering failed.

@gaming_w_pro thanks for the tip.
btw: you know how to quote multiple users? In this forum it seems you do just a quote.

So the very bad news is that even though watering challenge now requires absolute perfection when targeting, it will still ignore you if you turn too fast even if the position is perfect. this is very unfortunate, since the challenge now requires to be faster than before (since position matters), while punishing you for being too fast

-This is a feedback and help for starters:

-1. On "chopping trees" challenge; target the little trees and move on a path. 3 second is enough for deciding your path. I don't know about 6 second but ı was able to win with 4 second malus. Little trees require 15 hit.
-2. "Sickling" challenge is require little luck but not too much. You need to rhythm your clicking and hold your finger on movement button. you are capable of harvesting two grass from one location but sometimes character doesn't line up with grasses perfectly and in this situation don't forget; you are capable of cross movement so while moving forward, also press to side for linin up with grasses. İf your rhythm good; you will sickle and move between sickles. Grass with flower; requıre 2 hit and without flower; requıre 1 hit.
-3. I never win "Mining" challenge but i think ıt is winnable. After ı learn to play; ı never come to mining without malus but the challenge is hard too, you can't make mistakes. Target the brown rocks. İt's like "chopping trees" challenge, deciding a path is important. Brown rocks requıre 7 hits.
-4. "Watering" challenge is the one ı do best. After watering, plant doesn't grow fast, so; water one, then water another, then return to first one. You don't need to stop and wait, when you return to first one, it probably be at next stage. When they have two big leaf, water them one last time and without waiting for them to grow, move to next couple. I do not remember how much time you need to water one plant for it grow but its every stage is visible." I do move down from start, water first one, then; without waiting, move to right one crossly for lining, water that, water left, water right, when they have two big leaf; water least time, move down(you "likely" able to water right down of your location.), water, cross walk(Maybe) to side plant(close one), water and do it this over and over."
-5. I never win a "Fighting" challenge and ı do not think ı can. I was only able to score 7. Archers requıre 3 hit but they might hit you too. You can hit two time before it moves "if" you're early but three hit is low possibility. İf you don't die, then likely; time will run out. Archers don't come fast enough, you might need to wait. There is a bug: if archers move back to gate, they might shot really fast and stop your movement completely.
-6. "Picking" challenge is hard but ı win couple of time(Without Malus.). When you press left mouse button; character doesn't do any thing so press it non-stop but don't hold movement button, you might pass the sapling so be careful with your movement. Target the "light brown" sapling. İf there is a dark one between you and your target; stop non-stop clicking and click carefully. There is exactly 40 light brown sapling.
-7. I never win a "Hoeing" challenge and ı don't think ı will be capable in a close time. Passing the 45 limit(Limit for winning galacredit) is already very hard. İt requıre luck. Not as hard as fighting challenge but it is too hard, if its not open field which it doesn't. Deciding a path is important. Dirt requıre; 1 hit, light grass; 2 hit, dark grass; 3 hit.

-Note: Sorry for any mistake in my writing as it is not my main language.

-Also: Malus is still 6&4 second on the rules page and ı thinked it is a bug until ı look at this page so better not forget about changing the rules page.

-Also; Thanks for this giveaway.


-Update: "Watering" challenge is now harder than "Hoeing" challenge and maybe harder than "Fighting" challenge(At least for me.). İt is requıre precision and don't accept any mistake. Fighting challenge feels like winnable with luck but watering is not much about luck.
-Highlighted plant doesn't mean anything. For watering; square in front of the character needs to be on the plant that you want to water. I think same tactic may work with a little change but ı tried and hardly score 10.
-I think tactic is; Go down until character is between plants. Water right plant(Far one), than left(İf you move to left first; your square might past the plant.), than right and once plants have two big leaf; move down again, until you're between plants and do it again. "But like ı told; Challenge became very hard. I tried this and did only 10, so don't be upset or angry if it's not work for you too."
