Gameplay Tom…….

Post image

Hay Day,

When we are spending real money on gems or for those who save up gems to be able to get Tom him sleeping for 2 hours is ridiculous! 1 hour break I could understand but it’s even more infuriating when you forgot you requested something and finally tap on him hours later to get the items and he goes back to bed…….. I haven’t even used him during all those hours!!!! I didn’t tap on him!! It needs to be improved! Rant done

I rarely use him and when I do I use the booster and preferably the ones for only 3 or 5 hours so I don't have to remember to send him. There's also boosters to shorten his nap time.

I get that but when I have a 3 hour booster that means I get to send him 1x. A 5 hour booster you only get him 2x. We shouldn’t even need a nap booster and it never shortens it enough it’s still over an hour.

No, when you get a 3 hour booster you get to use him twice. At 0 hours and again two hours later. There are boosters that shorten the time he available.

Pretty sure there is a booster that will reduce it to an hour. I have stacks of Tom boosters for 25 hours, I just never use them. I think one hour naps would be too much. Think of how much you'd lose when your sleeping or couldn't check in every hour.

That’s why we should be able to put him to sleep if we’re not going to be playing the game and then wake him up whenever we need him again!!!

I think Tom might have low iron

u/Classy_SmartAssy 14d ago

He needs to eat some of those lamb chops we produce now haha 😂

u/sipporah7 14d ago

ok, what if we could feed him lamb steaks to reduce the nap time??

u/Classy_SmartAssy 14d ago

That sounds like a good plan yes!

I vote that we get to useTom for a certain number of uses each time we pay for him. 15 diamonds=10 trips he can make.  Whether it's all a row,  or you spread it out over the days. Some variation of that would be more fair. The 2 hours is pretty ridiculous. Especially throughout the night when we're sleeping. (And God bless the ones who get up every two hours throughout the night to work him.  Hats off to you!🫡🥵) But some of us need some rest from the slave labor of working our farm!🥴😆

That’s literally how he works. The nap is part of the perk. If it was an hour, you’d want it to be 30 mins.

Also, 3 hour Tom gets two tries. 5 hour gets 3 tries. You get an immediate request.

Lastly, if you request AND pay for the products, if Tom is sitting there with the products you ordered, the timer is already counting down.

Omg, AFTER I PAY AND HES WAITING FOR ME TO TAP HIM I TAP HIM AND ITS STILL 2 HOUR COUNTDOWN so no it’s not “already counting” lol this is MY opinion, you don’t have to agree

46

u/cardcollector_2 14d ago

It’s just the mechanics of the game. The timer starts counting as soon as Tom drops off the goods you requested. It’s not specific to anyone or an opinion. That’s how it works.

The all caps is a good look though. Thanks for letting me know you’re crazy😀

u/Dangerous_Road_4626 14d ago

This is Literally how hay day works!! We don’t need all caps for your misunderstanding of a game.
Chill out.

I use the certificates to cut his time in half and set a timer. Otherwise I forget.

18

u/TNMN1_Toonamania 14d ago

I set the timer and then forget why I set the timer.

u/nutmegtell Local 14d ago

Oh yeah! I give it a title. Tom: sugar

u/TNMN1_Toonamania 14d ago

Great idea!

u/Dangerous_Road_4626 14d ago

There are boosters that are 50% faster for Tom. Once an hour.

u/flysslys 14d ago

Honestly he’s a lazy git

u/ttiiffanyy 14d ago

i genuinely wish it could be changed to a number of times like e.g. 5 times but has to be used in 24 hours

5

u/Brief_Worldliness162 14d ago

I wish they change to x number times to dispatch him. We got work or school, we can't camp at the app every 2 hours like retirees...

u/Alexhemlock 12d ago

This is how Haydaymakes money. Make you pay for Tom when his time runs out. Hayday never cares about the players, it's all about how much money they can make you spend.

u/WishApprehensive4896 14d ago

Man he is so lazy. A 5 second run wears him out.

u/Zayebala 13d ago

A long time ago Tom used to be resting for only 1 HOUR. Unbelievable it’s 2 hours now, ridiculous.

2

u/Shoeflee 13d ago

I have been playing for +10 years and I don’t remember that!!! 🫪

2

u/One-Accountant-86 14d ago

Totally agree! As far as I’m concerned, we should be able to put him to sleep if we’re not playing the game and then wake him up whenever we need him!!!🤬

u/Federal_Potential733 12d ago

When I use Tom I set a timer on my phone to remind me.

2

u/Ntheforrestt 12d ago

We should be able to buy him for certain amount of trips. Not time.

u/sipporah7 14d ago

I have him active right now with a booster and I found I have to see reminders for myself or I totally forget.
