[Joanetta1216]

I was so excited to see all the new additions of levels and goodies for my farm. I hope there will be some land expansion next so I have room for it all. Can't wait to redecorate my farm again. Thank you for listening to the players!

hi! i was really glad about the improvements. But i really do hope that you will help me open my storage. It's been a month,i think, that my storage won't open. It started when i store some of my hedges in the storage because I rearrange my farm. Please do help me open my storage..I have more that 7x,i think, harvested pineapples in it. I do not have coins to buy those new decorations and stuff because I cannot sell my crops because my storage won't open.

I really appreciate your help about it. Please do help me about my storage that won't open.

sincerely yours,
emlois

i receved mail in farm town telling me that if i would send message to 19 facebook friends i would get 500 green cash. this is not fair to people like me who do not have 19 friends in face book.

10 new crops, including 4h, 8h and 12h crops.
10 new trees available on the store for higher levels
15 new items available to be sent as gift, including 7 non harvestable trees
80 additional items (coins and farm_cash)

We also reduced the XP gap between levels for levels higher than 26, now the gap could be up to 11000, versus 30000 before. For people on those levels, and people that were on level 34 for some time, their current level will be adjusted up based on their XP.

Some people are experiencing some back and forth changes on their current level, we are currently researching the problem.

Thanks

Hi there,

The issues with the level going back and forth when visiting friends should be solved now.

We are also planning to credit farm cash like we did last time, depending on how many levels you moved up, this should happen sometime next week.

There are some people complaining that items are farther away now, I want to clarify that this is not the case with a concrete example:

Before, you were able to reach level 34 with 150000 XP points, and at that point, you could buy the Mansion. Now you will be able to reach level 41 with 150000 XP points as well, and should also be able to buy the Mansion, which is now locked at level 41, so basically we shifted all items appropiately so there is no additional effort to reach the items that were already on the game.

And by the way, there are too many items now for so little land... ;-)

Thanks

I noticed this as well. It shows, a + and a - before a number once you leave the farm.

LOL!
I'm all for a nice drop of whine while I'm farming too. Might explain some of the wild planting I've done too.
Mind you, sometimes there is a little too much gripe juice being splashed around.

So let's hear it for a nice drop of Chardy and a plate of cheese!

Yes, and bring on the more land!

Cheers Jeane191!

It's nice to have the new levels,,,,,,,,,except that now I just lost over 30,000 coins.....plus I didn't get credit for 3 farms I just harvested and plowed. What's the point of new levels if it just casuses even more problems,,

This is, apparently, caused by a lag time between you harvesting on your computer and it being registered on the "other farm". It occurs because there is someone else harvesting the same crop and it was registered first. Same goes for ploughing.

But if you think 50 or 70 points is bad, I have lost 200 and 300 hundred XP with ploughing and at least $20,000 when harvesting on at least 5 occasions. Dagnabbit!

The solution is simple: hire only one or two people to work on your farm and play fair.

I only hire one person at a time now. If they harvest, then I hire them to plough.

It is only fair.
