Jas0643 has some very good points. I too see a lot of my neighbors not playing anymore and these are level 200+ players in some cases. Months ago I was asked to work on 5+ farms each night by my neighbors. The number of newer players seems to be steady. I love FT and enjoy the game as a release from all the pressure of my job and life in general. I buy a lot of FC because I can afford it and I appreciate the game developers efforts. I actually look forward to coming home and farming. And im very thankful for this creation. I spend a couple hours a night keeping things up on my farms.
That said, I think the one thing that needs to be done, besides more levels, is after say level 300 you should be able to buy AS MANY FARMS UP TO SAY THE 15TH FARM, as you can. There are no leader boards and no competition so fairness is not an issue. You can only have one farm loaded at a time so it wont be a drag on any server. But this would allow those who want to round out their operations to do so with out waiting for months years to do so. AND it would provide a lot of revenue to take the game to the next level whatever, and where ever that is. The slow steady approach is fine in the begining but now, when we get new facilitys, most of us have no room for them and have to jam them on a farm. The farms get cluttered and its frustrating. This GAME is a business for the developers just like any other business. Yes, to us it is a game. But to THEM it is a business. Rule 1 in any business is "when people are standing there with cash in hand SELL THEM WHAT THEY WANT....WHEN THEY WANT IT"....if you ask them to come back in a few months, they probably wont. They are losing a lot of revenue when a player parks his farms and moves on to other games. As for a quest, I would hope that as the player works toward a goal, a free farm or special facilities could be a quest of sorts. |

my vote is no quests. I would like games to get something extra though. i quit all the other games because i didn't want my begging all over my fb page. I do have a question I think I read that it takes as long for a crop to wither as it does to grow is this correct? We will be going on vacation and I was planning on planting 4 day crops as we will be back in 5-6 days not sure if we will have wifi but don't think so.

I may be nuts but this morning I discovered that it all depends on where you have your farms (How close or how far with the + or - keys) as ti weather you have the 3 letters vertical or full information on crops fish etc. Like I said I may b nuts but check it out bring it inn with the + or - keys at a certain point the full discription appears and stays hope this works for you all and you can move around on the farm and it stays

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Bring it on !! I have enough coin to buy 4, maybe 5 more farms right now..... and if I tried, I could make about $2-3 Billion each month but I prefer re-designing, buying stuff (not just facilities and plants) and "playin' around" with the game along with the plant/harvest/plow etc. And I have discovered that I am a bit of a "hoarder' too... duh. I try to maintain a large (!) inventory of whatever I need.... like 50,000 of some things, and 100,000 of others ... hehehehehe now, back to your idea.... I vote for releasing multiple farms to higher levels. Level 235 gets 1 farm Level 275 gets 2 farms Level 325 gets 3 farms..... and with a decent release of new levels requiring lots of points to attain, well... some will get the multiple farms, others will get them in short order. . |

Now on the quest there are ways of doing them without posting 10,000 things to your walls. This is where the happy medium comes in. There can be quest that say grow x crop y times. Tend 10 neighbors farms. Get hired 4 times by neighbors or in the mp. Produce x products in facilities. We can have goals where we add neighbors to help us that way if we don't have the needed facility and they do they can produce that product for us. The quest/goals can have some asking for things from people but that does not mean it will be the way Zynga does it which is you have to request 1,000 things to finish the goal and good luck getting it done. There are ways to do things that add to the game without going the zynga route. When people where asking for harvestable animals and to put them in buildings everyone said the same thing no that is too much like farmville but when ft added those options it was done in a much better way then the way zynga did them. |

evening!
I would just like to tell you that I do like the idea of being able to sort crops when planting from least to highest, but would there be a way of seeing the actual amount? Like you see in storage. As for quests, not sure I would like that... that is why I hardly play all the other games because there is so much of this and that... send this send that... I like this game because I can do my stuff and interact with my neighbors.. without the quests.. |

With the seed filter set to "stored amount" just hover your mouse over the picture of the seed, it will tell you how many you have.
