I do recall the days when we went 4 months without an update. I ended up getting bored and only coming back every 3 days to harvest and replant my pineapple.

Then, a miraculous thing happened....the devs brought new life into the game with new levels, facilities and more FC items. This kept the game fun and also helped bring in a revenue stream for the devs which allowed them to give us more frequent updates. I say Huzzah! For a while we were getting updates every 2 weeks, which was bearable and reasonable given that the updates were generally very rich in goodies and game play improved tremendously.

That 2 weeks stretched out to 3 before too long, and now we're approaching 4 between updates. In my opinion, this is too long. I have spent money on this game, and I know I'm not alone. I, like many others, have maxed out on levels and am starting to tire of the rut I am in with the game.

While I am also wanting an update now, there is one thing to keep in mind, the last updated had a problem with it. The new fetchers on the facility manger didn't work like they hoped and it took two weeks to fix. That has probably delayed the next update and if that is the case I am okay with that, because that show that unlike some other games out there FT fixes problems when they happen even if that means delaying an update to the game. The same can not be said for other games out there.

I have over 130 FC waiting to be spent but currently there's nothing I want to spend it on (forklift would be useful to have, but not worth the cost).

IMO the forklift is worth the money especially when you are going in and just emptying the facilities, but not loading it makes the work a lot faster.

So, because I don't just want to whine, I want to add some requests:

2) As to keeping the game fresh, I would *really* be thrilled if you guys could introduce challenges/goals/achievements. I find that challenges motivate me to want to play more. If you updated every 2 weeks and put out a new challenge with every update, I think it would breathe life into the game that is starting to get a bit stale for some of us who are maxed out on levels and will continue to be maxed out for a long time.

Thanks for listening.

I don't know about this suggestion. I play some games by that big game company on fb, you know the one I am talking about, and all their games have missions all the time. At first it was fun but now it is work keeping up with the 5 missions you have going and constantly asking friends for help. I am not against this suggestion, if it is done the right way, but I do not want ft to go the way of that other company with all the little missions and **** going on all the time. It can put some fun in the game but it also can take the fun out of the game.
