    Bring Back the Prospector!

    The new update takes away Zudina and the Prospector and claims it is for "balance," however, the Puppy update actually gives you much MUCH less than these two did, so there really is no balance. I would be happy to have another daily challenge to do, which is what I thought the Puppy would bring, but it actually took away one of the things I loved most about TF: the Prospector.

    I would often do his challenges and put on double coins and make a lot of money that way. It also got me to experience the most variety in tracks, as it would force me to play on tracks and get better at them if I didn't play on them often. And the rewards were much better than what the Puppy brings, because of the doughnuts.

    Does anyone else agree with me and want the Prospector back in addition to the Puppy?

    I always assumed it was that he was a robot (and maybe that the cat Bella secretly controls him)

    He does speak robotically in some of his missions he gives...

    What is the most frustrating - i don't see donuts among Puppy's rewards.
    Prospector's challenge was the only predictable way to get them (up to 30 per month). And now there is only the bunker left. Lootwheel and slot machine both are too rare and too random to rely on them. Upgrading special bikes will take ages if nothing will change
    Fortunately i have agent and donkey maxed. But upgrading of Stallion will take much longer now...

    It was announced so, but Zudina isn't gone. I've received new Zudina mission and puppy mission:

    I think Zudina still exists as a character; they just removed her daily missions. Pretty sure having Zudinas image over the bunker just means you have a finished showdown to collect. (I do hope you have her in the saloon though)

    Yep I want him back too, it was my daily warm up before starting showdowns.
    The game feels so empty now.....Puppy missions are a joke
    And i don't care about zudina, i was not doing her missions because they did not work half of the time.

    Not quite so. Zudina is in saloon having a new mission for me which I did not accept yet and no showdowns in bunker.
    (I had two finished showdowns before installing puppy update, so I went to saloon, took new farewell Zudina mission and took reward for those showdowns, but did not start new ones; picked up Zudina prize. Then installed update. )

    As soon as you accept/finish a mission with her after the Puppy update, she should disappear; same with prospector (for me I just accepted and let the time run out on them).

    I must have missed the announcement about the removal of the Prospector and Zudina.....Who made this stupid decision !?!?

    I simply thought the Crappy Childish Puppy Missions was a temporary event to celebrate another birthday for the Frontier (I was hoping that there was going to be a new track to unlock on the 7th day) but I've since lost the Prospector and I'm yet to start my last Zudina Mission as I've been holding-off starting it until I've got some more chips as it's asking me to unlock Traction Testground !!

    Why try and fix what isn't broke by removing one of the best features of the game (The Prospector) If you've completed everything else then the Prospector Missions were the best thing to play, I used to look forward to playing his missions everyday as you never knew what tracks you'd be running or what medals he'd want you to obtain.....The new Puppy Feature is no-where near as good, it's pretty pathetic to be honest as the missions are VERY quick and easy plus the rewards are pointless and it's forcing people to play the Bunker as well, which I think is wrong !!


    !! BRING BACK THE PROSPECTOR !!
