NO.

It's been answered several times, including just a few posts back. Reading the thread is useful.

Thanks for the fun equipment, however, please....we still need a beat-up pick up truck.

So then does it not give XP to plow for someone else-or the advantage to have someone plow for you not happen if you plow for yourself etc? Thanks. I do like how you figured out the fuel feature--oh that's cool-"Fuel Feature"

are we going to be able to use the new tools on our neighbors or others farms, or just our own?

We do agree that we need larger farms, especially those of us who have already reached the maximum capacity on our farms. We should also have a store where we can buy new clothes as well.

What do you all think?

Absolutely agree!!! I thought this was suppose to be an interactive game. If you have a harvester, a plower and a seeder there is no reason to have friends.
I would much rather have more crops to choose from....or fertilizer to buy to make your crops grow faster. It seems like a lot more effort could have been put else where instead of machines that you don't have room for.

A change of clothes would be awesome!!! Yoville even lets you personalize how you look. I'm at level 34 and can't go any further, but by god I can buy a harvester that takes money away from someone else, or I can buy a plower that takes experience points away from someone that needs them.

Sorry am I missing something??? What is the point of the tractor, since we can already plow 4 fields at once?

Let them harvest manually and at a certain level be awarded the harvests, seeder and plower as fruits of their labour. Then they have something worthwhile to complain about.

We did it the hard way, had to wait for the bar to be complete before moving on to the next field, that was hard work and time consuming, but we reached Level 34 without complaining.

Very nice additions and very welcomed, good work Bert and developers.

No offense, but just because you've been playing it longer doesn't mean you've had it harder and deserve what you have any more than anyone else. We all have to work to earn coins/xp points and progress through the levels.

In a way, people DO earn these new tools because they do have to work to earn the money to buy them...they aren't cheap.

The way you describe it, having to wait for the progress bar to complete before moving on is in fact time consuming, but I wouldn't call it "hard work" as you have. Unless you count the strain on your clicking finger.

Basically what I'm saying is, there's no need to come down on people just because they happened to join this game AFTER all these new features & upgrades.

People would buy these pieces of equipment even if they didn't do anything, if they were merely decoration. But since they do actually work (in their own little way) it does make more sense if we could use them in conjunction with hiring other farmers.

Come on, people. It's a free app, and one that is maintained and updated regularly, loved and used by many people...So many people asked for these tools, but they didn't have to give them to us - yet they did. They're not going to be loved by everyone, so if it's not for you, just don't use them.

I, for one, love to see things happening to the game. It's exciting! Any changes you guys are willing to spend time on I appreciate, whether or not it's something I'm going to use personally.

One thing that would be nice, for the machines that seed (or whatever) 2 crops at a time, and for the feature that allows you to plow 2 at a time, it would be nice to be able to do two in either direction, not just left to right. If that doesn't happen, I'll live but I'd love you guys so much if that was available!

i think it stinks. to much like farmville the fun of farmtown was hiring and getting hired. everyone will get away from that now. very disappointed. would r
ather had more land!!!!!

Just bought the Big Seeder and I LOVE it! It made the planting process so much faster and besides that - it made me feel super cool.

::::: adjusting John Deere cap :::::

Not sure yet if I'll buy the others, 'cause I like hiring workers - but huge thanks for the Big Seeder! Great addition and mine works just fine.

I love the new tools. Even if they were for decoration they are good additions. I may even plant some of the quick turn crops for a while just to play with them. I still plan on hiring though. You still get the extra percentage if you hire.
