While I am thrilled to get more land, especially a second farm, I agree with many others who have posted that 3million is really steep and out of reach of many. Most people have a life outside of FT! For that amount we should at least get the largest size. As many have said, we can second farms for free. It's great that they are linked, but I wish you would reconsider the cost. I am going to wait until all the bugs are out before even considering it.

Hi
Will there be an opportunity to increase the size of the 1st farm, instead of having to have 2? Like my farm as it is, would just like to expand!
Cheers

Any changes are announced in news and anncoucements. I believe that the "second" farm will probably be it for a while unless otherwise annoiunced. So watch news and announcements every few days, that will keep you informed.

Humm...that happened to me one time and the solution I gave you did it. With the overloaded servers for the FT application at the moment, it may be a matter of just waiting it out. It does sound like an adobe flash problem to me.
If it doesn't clear in a few hours, post your issue in the help forum.

No offense intended, but why couldn't we just get more land for our existing farm? I mean, getting a new one is cool and all, but the idea of starting over....wow. Does this mean there won't be more land for the first farms? I'm also thinkin that 3mil is a little steep.....just my thoughts. We do love the game though! We won't be going anywhere. Thanks!
You are NOT STARTING OVER!! Why do you people keep saying that?? If you would actually read the first post, it states VERY CLEARLY that your xp, coins and items can all transfer over...you are technically getting more land...you can completely farm one land, making xp and coins, and decorate your other land with all the extra goodies...your neighbors transfer as well...to transfer your items, you put them in storage, go to your other farm and take them out...what is so hard and horrible about this??? Can no one be happy on here anymore? All you do is complain and demand more more more! Programming is more difficult than just a darn click of a mouse you know...geesh!

I for one would really like to thank all of those who have put in all of the hard work on FT. I think the second farm is great, love the new levels, enjoyed the holiday decorations, cant wait for the Christmas decorations. The changes that have been made since I first started FT are amazing. Thanks for the great work, you are appreciated. Love my FT
I'm sure you realize alot of us already have second farms. I have been waiting for the new version that will let us add land to our existing farms before buying all the new stuff. I am very disappointed that it's not happening. Can't believe that it is not going to happen!
Could not agree more! Been waiting for an extended farm option as well. Have NO interest in a second farm. Already have one. Would love to be able to add more land to them both. Very strange move this from the developers.

Don't look at it as having 2 farms, but 2 fields in one farm. What you choose to do in those fields is up to you, crops on one and Home on the other, or a bit of both on both. They are both next to each other accessed through the one farm account page. They share money, xps, neighbour etc, so you have been given another field for your farm.

So are we going to be able to get back the lost points? I just lost another 112 points. It gives you the correct amount and then when you leave the farm it subtracts. I don't care so much about the coins but I certainly want the points back. Thanks
hey this issue should be fixed i was renovating my sisters farm and just bought a lot of river and river corner even a river with a windmill on it and to my surprise the XP wasnt credited...her level was supposedly be upgraded to...hope actions and solution will be taken...thanks...:confused::confused::confused:

Actually it's working now; it wasn't before. For some reason there seems to be a delay in just about everything - I couldn't upgrade for hours after buying the farm, and I couldn't see these diamonds earlier but they're there now.
At least I know how to get to people's second farms to water flowers now! Thanks!
Update: It's working on and off. One of my friends has two farms, and I can sometimes see the diamonds at the top of the page when I'm at her farm but I usually can't.

Not at all obvious if you read the farmville forums.
There are many complaints there about the small farm size. The farms are smaller then farmtown, and there is no remove space between plots option which makes them even smaller.
As I remember, all crops under 1 day are only 1 experience point in farmville. They finally have storage but it is very limited unless you use the farmville dollars to purchase it. There are the usual complaints on lost experience, lost items, not being able to get into the game, lost gifts etc.
Between the two, farm town has better game play, and more options, and doesn't have as high of requirements for many of the options that they both share. Further, quite a few players complain about the high point requirements for some of the achievments and/or crop mastery. Why? Because some are unrealistic.
Zygna is perhaps better at promoting farmville, mainly because they can and do use games like Mafia Wars to promote it. Oh, and farmville is also playable through farmville.com. Confusing if you receive a farmville.com only gift and it takes you there without warning from facebook.
Zygna isn't doing anything "better" nor are there developers listening more, they do what they expect will earn them the most profits.
I totally agree, Farmtown is much better than Farmville. Now, farmville does have 1, 2, 3, and 4 day crops, and also have 2, 4, 6, and 8 hour crops. And you do get 1 - 2 exp points depending on how many days for the crops to be ready. But you only get 1 exp when you plow and harvest instead of 2. You also can't hide the trees or buildings, you can't chat to people that are on there and you can't hire people to work at your farms. I do play both games, and Farmtown wins hands down. I also understand that in order for the devs to give us more land on our current farms may be too much for the flashplayer. I still would like for the devs and adobe devs to see if there was a way that they can get the flashplayer to handle that much load. Also with the RAM, it may be time for some to either upgrade or just purchase another computer.
Thank you developers for the new farm. You guys are the best. My purchase went smoothly.

I was really excited about the land announcement. Then I read that it is not a bigger farm, but another farm. I felt like I got punched in the gut. I've been waiting for room to design my farm the way I wanted, not a "closet" to plant my crops.
I have the coins and the XP to buy it, so I may anyway. But seriously, if we don't get a chance to get bigger farms, I may just quit.

Yes Smudleysmom, I had that problem, but when I can back the next day all the trees I had purchased were there. So it just too a refreshing maybe. It was the avocado trees that did that.
I have my second farm now, and love it. I think I will use it for my working farm. Great Idea guys. Thank you for the upgrade.

I don't think your team is really aware of what people were requesting. They were requesting to get larger farms. While being able to add a new farm is a nice feature it's hardly worth the coins to buy when the storage capacity, coins and cash are shared with the other farm. If the second farm had been independent and had it's own storage, coin and cash reserves it would have been worth it. As it is I will not waste my coin in purchasing the additional farm. I would come out far more ahead by creating a second facebook or myspace account and starting a second farm. Thanks for the thought though.

thanks for the hard work guys and we appreciated that ... great to have second farm instead of making it bigger ... more decorative items please, not only seasonal and more crops to plant (but thanks for the additional crops recently ... they're awesome !!)
and one more thing ... server ... me and some farmer friends are having difficulties to find our old inn every week (especially on weekend) when the servers are scrambled ... can we make the inn unique ... ? thanks !!

Nov 30 2009, 01:37 AM
When I heard about new land, I thought it would be to make my farm bigger. I don't need two farms. I just need the one I have to be bigger so I can fit more stuff on it. I love the game. I just wish I could have bigger land. I'm really looking forward to the Christmas decorations. Thanks

Many of you may not have been here long enough to know but...... When the price and EXP requirements for your original farm was set, it was WAYYYYY harder to get coins and EXP.
Harvesting was extremely slow, hard to aim and catch the field to click it, and was harvested one plot at a time while you waited and your avatar kept going for long unplanned walks around the farm and you had to wait for it to slowly return going AROUND fences, rivers, and hedges (not through them) before you could click the next field.
We were also not ABLE to plow any farm except our own.
It is so much easier to earn coins now by a mile. I've literally earned a million coins per day numerous times.
There were no raspberries then either - nor pineapples, blueberries, or peppers. The best you could hope for was pumpkins. The shortest crop was 4 hours. And you had to plow your OWN field one square at a time while waiting for your avatar to finish each square before you could move to the next one.
The rise in price of the new farm may reflect how much EASIER it is to earn the requirements than it was then.
I sound like an OLD-timer....but it was only back in JULY!!! Farmtown has come a LONG way in a short time.

Hi There,
We just released a new version of FarmTown which includes support for buying a second farm in the Realtor Office.
This release will be completed in phases, right now only 50% of the users have it, we will be monitoring the load closely and will be releasing the new version for the rest of the users over the next couple of days.
The new farm, and all land upgrades for Farm 1 and Farm 2 are now available in both, coins and farm cash.
To switch between your farms, use the Farm Selector tool on the top left, near the coins.
To move items between your farms you can use the Item Storage until we release an easier way later on. You can now add trees to the Item Storage as well.
When you hire others, you now need to select the target farm where employees are going to work. If you want them to work on your other farm as well, you will have to hire them again.
Everything is shared between farms: neighbours, coins, cash, xp, trophies, etc.
Holiday items are comming early next week.
After this we are going to focus for a while on the issues with the lost coins/xp when working for others, which seems to be happening to some users...
[***UPDATE***] This release have already been deployed to 100% of the users
Thanks

Will this ever happen also to MYSPACE users? I have read about it and was totally happy,now I worked really hard to get to level 44 (I am now 43) and just for having a friend telling me, he (level 51) isn't able to buy a second farm, not even see the possibility. Now I am upset because I have been so happy about this new feature...
Please put this option up for myspace farmers! PLEASE

Hello,
While it's really nice that you've added the new farm, it would really be nice if you fixed the glitches in the old releases first. I am totally tired of losing my xp points when I plow - sometimes I lose more than I had before I started plowing. Let's put a break on implementing any new stuff until you fix the rest.

You know so many peeps have multi accounts already why would any one pay 3 mil for a second farm? makes no sense at all to me. I dont see that as being a reward for being a long time player but more of a punishment. 3 mil really? was this game bought out by zygna?
And its not even an expansion but a different small plot for 3 mil? Think most of the players will pass on that one since it seems more like a slap in the face than an incentive to keep playing.

Nov 30 2009, 07:13 AM
Raul, I am glad you are going to finally focus on lost XP points. This is my 5th or 6th time in the last 2 months, reporting I continue to lose valuable XP points. This morning I lost 360 points. To try and avoid this, I left the farm only after my avatar was well finishied and had collected all points. I went to the marketplace. I saved my changes and went home. Upon arriving on my farm, I had lost 360 XP points. It's a shame, because more and more of us are turning to FarmVille where such problems do not seem to exist. The incentive to hang in there without earning points is growing weaker. I do hope the creators begin to pay attention to lost points. Thank you for listening. Maa Registah

You obviously haven't read most of the posts that refer to the land expansion. The servers, flash, and computers could not handle the overload. Plus the screen resolutions could not give you an accurate visual of your entire farm. And even in full screen your items and graphic elements would be very small. Storage, coins, points, and elements are shared by both farms. You put items you want to move to new farm into storage remove at new farm. Animals cannot at this time be moved.
And the devs thinking about us was a kind thing, they didn't have to do any of the research to add a new farm for our enjoyment rather than overload servers and our computers, but they did.

thanks again for the hours and hours of enjoyment that we get from Farmtown (and the excuse to ignore anything that resembles real work!)

You now do have a bigger one, move all your crops to the second farm. I may do that, haven't decided. And seriously, "punched in the gut"? :p

Thanks for fixing the xp bar for 35+ levels to show need xp to level up. Ive grown quite fond of that little tool. Im happy to hear you will be concentrating on the core aspects of the game again as well. The upgrades are all find and dandy but if basic game play doesnt work whats the point?
Another good update, mostly smooth transition. Good work:)

To all those moaning about how much it costs, did you mind that the mansion was a million or the manor was 2 million?! You can earn nothing out of those, whereas the land gives you more crop space to play with and increase your income!
And look at it as having a new field for your farm, it doesn't have to be another farm, as it is linked to the first with same coins, xps and neighbours. So quit moaning and enjoy the game!

Yes, you need to be level 44.
I'm loving this update. For a long time, all I did was come back every couple of days to plant some pumpkins and that was it. I made over 6 million that way, so getting the new farm wasn't hard. Leveling up was though, I've gotten lazy! xD

a second Farm is nice- but why can't we add on to our existing farmland to fit all of our layout and cool stuff on one block? Any plans to allow us to expand our original land?????? Thanks!

Goodbye Papa mac... sorry you've decided not to play any longer. I'm loving working at the market trying to get more levels and points to buy my second farm. Don't think they'll miss you, because bored higher levels like me are coming back to replace ungrateful people like you.
Thanks for saying goodbye before you quit this FREE BETA game.

AT first I wasn't happy about a second farm since I wanted more land for my first farm, but the idea of using it just as a crop farm appeals from the standpoint that I can make more money faster that way. I do feel it's way too expensive though and the level required is also high.
Thanks for all your work, I know it's not easy.

I don't think your team is really aware of what people were requesting. They were requesting to get larger farms. While being able to add a new farm is a nice feature it's hardly worth the coins to buy when the storage capacity, coins and cash are shared with the other farm. If the second farm had been independent and had it's own storage, coin and cash reserves it would have been worth it. As it is I will not waste my coin in purchasing the additional farm. I would come out far more ahead by creating a second facebook or myspace account and starting a second farm. Thanks for the thought though.
I think the devs are very aware of what people were asking for when they said they wanted more land. I also think that they know it isn't possible and still have people enjoy the game. Sure, they could probably do it, then everyone would ***** and moan when it didn't work. Some people will just never be happy. At least doing it this way you can share all coins and experience between the two farms. I for one love it and will spend even more coins if they would allow us a third or even a forth farm. I can't take those virtual coins to the big bank in the sky with me, so I might as well enjoy them while I can. I spent 6.5 million coins yesterday and am already back to 1 million so it isn't impossible to raise the coin.

Being a long time player of this game, i am disappointed we can't add any land to our existing farms, I understand there are complications with the flash player & its limits, what ticks me off is the lack of communication from Raul or Bert, or whoever does the announcements. I have seen posts from moderators that the game can't handle bigger farms, why cant a developer come out and tell us this, so its not second hand news. Raul hinted a coupla times a bout the possibility of more land, to me that meant add to existing farms, not a second farm. the lack of communication is now what is causing the majority of complaints. I for one was preparing for more land. i have multiple farms, i have very little room for crops on any, as I built what i think are cool looking farms, It is going to take me many months to get 3 million bucks unless i delete all and start over. Just not up to that task.
I'm gonna start some new farms from scratch, and start the process all over.
I would like also to say, it's great we got new levels & many more really cool toys to play with, there will be less "cookie cutter" farms now. keep up the good work & i will never say I'm quitting, i love the game too much to be a quitter. oh by the way Farmville sux lol :eek:

I have a few friends i have asked on myspace and they dont have it either so thinking maybe its just on facebook for now. anyone know ?

I am very happy with the new upgrades and have happily purchased a second farm. As far as enlarging the one I have - no desire to do so. My original farm is as big as allowed and it takes some time to load up as it is. A bigger one might just cause my browser to crash. I love the upgrades and happily wait for the Christmas decorations.
Thanks Devs.

I'd like to add my voice to those who love the new 2nd farm option. I'm one of those who have a 2nd Facebook acct. just so I could have a 2nd farm. On my other account, not the one that's linked here, bought the 2nd farm. It's perfect, because the 1st one had been converted to a park with a beach at the bottom. I didn't really want to mess with that by adding more land at the bottom!! Having another farm on the same account with a higher level and more neighbors means I'll eventually retire my 2nd account.
So, thank you thank you!!
Also, I'm sorry that you mods & devs have to endure so much complaining by people who don't appreciate what they're getting, especially the ones who complain without understanding and don't bother reading the first post or the pop-up when they start up!

It's not an issue to me. If you reach level 44 and don't have at LEAST 3 million coins to spare, then you need a budget! :D
I'm just glad that a neighbor and I began to "race" to see who could hit 10 million first. It meant we both hit level 44 and nearly 5 million coins just in time for purchasing a new farm.
I now have enough coins to purchase all the upgrades, but, dadblame it... I have to WAIT til I level up. What is the world coming to???
Oh woe is me.
*sorry for the sarcasm dripping all over the place*
*no, I'm not... :rolleyes:
So, when will we get a third farm? :eek:

I am a fan of this game but very disappointed when I lose all my XPs and 3/4 of my points everytime I am on someone's farm. This has been happening for 3 weeks now. Today for example, I has 74467 XPs when I left the farm, as soon as I clicked home, I lost them all now I am back to 74109. It's like I did all that gaming for nothing.
Please help, it's really ruining the game.

Why don't you all go out and develop your own game and leave FarmTown to those of us who want to have fun! If someone gave you a sack of gold coins, you would probably complain that the coins were too heavy to carry around.

You obviously haven't read most of the posts that refer to the land expansion. The servers, flash, and computers could not handle the overload. Plus the screen resolutions could not give you an accurate visual of your entire farm. And even in full screen your items and graphic elements would be very small. Storage, coins, points, and elements are shared by both farms. You put items you want to move to new farm into storage remove at new farm. Animals cannot at this time be moved.
And the devs thinking about us was a kind thing, they didn't have to do any of the research to add a new farm for our enjoyment rather than overload servers and our computers, but they did.
You are correct Ms. Winters, I did not read all the posts. I was addressing the OP and not every post that has been made. Thank you for advising me of the inherent problems though. In any case I can't see paying that amount in coin for "shared" storage, coins and points. I come out much farther ahead by creating an additional account and starting a completely separate second farm with the first one as a neighbor. It gives me more coin, storage and points with the additional perk that I can gift myself if I choose to. This would seem to be a much more practical use of bandwidth. Thanks again to the developers for trying.

I don't know what everyone is complaining about....use the second farm to grow crops from corner to corner...make lots of money and XP's then use the other farm to decorate without having to worry to much about having enough crop space. It would be hard to expand the orginal farm space as people would need lots of RAM and also to see it all on screen would be a big problem.
My ADVICE to everyone is.............ENJOY the game for what it is and cut out the complaining!!!!

Why even say goodby - just leave! Go play FarmVille were the max size is 22x22 but you have the great pleasure of getting strawberry milk from pink cows and paying real cash for your gas:)
The second farm is working great and a big "thank you" to the developers. I don't think the computer graphics would have worked very good with a farm size bigger than the max now. Transferring stuff back and forth works fine.
Thanks again,

But we are talking about money in a game here, not real money. The coins you earn in FT aren't real, so it costs you nothing. Unless you choose to get it via Farm Cash purchase, which is entirely optional.

I think the majority of the people making complaints about this new update didn't even bother to fully read the update.
I am thrilled, ill be able to downsize my fields on my main farm and create my own cool world of decorations, and make my second one into a massive pineapple money-making machine.
Once you get up to that level, you should have more than enough money to play for the initial 3 million investment, if you have played the game the right way. Some people buy and then immediately sell expensive buildings only for the XP boost, then whine when they have no money. Really people?
(And if I understand correctly, after you make that initial 3 million investment, the secondary farm size updates are relatively inexpensive. Something like 100,000 per size upgrade or so.... I think...)
You ungrateful whiners can go to FarmVille for all I care. That game seems to cater to people closer to your mental age anyway.

I love the idea of an extension to my original farm. I suggested a "page 2" to our farms instead of more land....more land would be a nuisance but to be able to move things around from one to the other is perfect....Thanks devs and mods for all the hard work that went into all the upgrades...the whiners are just that.....whiners! They probably complain at all the apps they play, and are never to be pleased ppl here or in real life.

LOVE the ability to add a new farm - found it very easy to store equipment (plower, seeder, etc) from my first farm and use it on the second!
My problem is I bought a big farmhouse for my second farm and can't see it. Looks like it's there as I tried to add another big farmhouse and the whole area where I placed it was "red" (like something was there). Any suggestions???
Always keep in mind, this stuff is free! My thanks to the developers who've done the work to make Farm Town more fun! I was at Level 34 with $5 million and nothing to do - now I have someplace to grow! Thanks much all!
Duh! Apparently the default for the second farm is to have buildings, trees and flowers hidden... Once I changed that my house was there!!! (And this I find out after reading virtually all of the posts - lol)

:)Oh I am very happy with the second farm thing. I think it is sooooo neat how we can start another farm all over again. No complaints here as far as that goes. I just wish that I would not lose XP points or coins when I am out working on a farm. All day long yesterday and again today I lost XP points. I know that this is a beta game so there are going to be loads of bugs. Just anxious to get to the next level(s) so I can buy those beautiful trees. I must have bought over 200 trees for my farm. I am hoping tomorrow I can get the second farm so I can turn one into a fruit tree farm and the other into a regular farm. Of course I cannot wait till I get to purchase a Manor.
Thank you for all the hard work you all do.

For all the complaints about the 3M coins for the new farm- before it was released people were complaining that they had too many coins and nothing to do with them because there was no room. Now you have room, something to spend your coins on, and more entertainment.
It should be expensive. If everyone gets the second farm, it increases the load on the servers. Can you imagine the chaos if ever FT user suddenly got the extra farm? This way they at least can pace is better.

Plus you have to be level 43? Good grief Charlie Brown, I've been plugging away for ages now and feel like I'm in quick sand. And 3 mil coins? Get real. And while I'm at it, why is so much requiring money now for what is said to be a 'free game'? If you're going to charge, dang it set a price for the game and then include everything in it. When you're living on a below poverty income, games trying to bleed you dry get to be old very quick. And it looks like the Salvation Army stuff is what you get if you can't afford to pay cash for decent stuff.
I'm considering giving up farming.

Thats exactly what they did give you. The two farms share resources completely. Any XP or coins you gain in each farm all go to the same main pool.
This way, you can significantly downsize, if not eliminate fields completely from your main farm, and relegate the moneymaking/farming to the other farm.
And I dont think anybody should feel bad for you on here because of that sob story you just posted. 3 million coins is not a lot. You don't have to purchase a thing on here to obtain your new farm anyway. Most everything can be bought with coins.
So you tell the developers to get real? The only one who needs to get real and get a grip are people saying stuff like you.... Oy.

So wouldn't it have just been easier on the servers to just give us more land instead of doubling the amount of farms?
For all the complaints about the 3M coins for the new farm- before it was released people were complaining that they had too many coins and nothing to do with them because there was no room. Now you have room, something to spend your coins on, and more entertainment.
It should be expensive. If everyone gets the second farm, it increases the load on the servers. Can you imagine the chaos if ever FT user suddenly got the extra farm? This way they at least can pace is better.

Except for my large greenhouse and my second farm, everything I have has been from coins. I don't think it looks lesser than the cash stuff at all. And the greenhouse was with FC that I was given.

As I do enjoy playing Farm Town I have to ask if you are serious about 3 million to buy a second farm that is half the size of the one I had to play along time for. That is way to much
i agree.........it took my coins but then gave me a small lot

And to those who keep reminding people that this is a "Free" game. I love this game and have from the start, even with all the glitches and hiccups that come with a game in development. Thank you dev's, mods and everyone else who is involved in making this a great experience.

Hi Guys,
I've got 2 Farm Town accounts, and I have the level on both of my farms to expand, but only one of my accounts has been expanded to the new largest size we can have, and the other account, which has not been expanded to the larger size, only shows the 2nd farm option. Are all accounts not up and running with the larger farm size yet?
Just curious.

am over the moon with an extra farm thanks guys but can anyone tell me why i am getting charged to take things out of storage to put on second farm? have i missed something ?moved four blossom trees and each one went up in price as i moved them? 30 -65 coins didnt actually note what i got charged for moving big farm house as this was first item i moved.
Am I understanding you correctly? You are being charged each time you take something out of storage between your farm and the new extension? That doesn't sound like sharing to me.

Confused, we could upgrade our land before, guess I don't understand why the upgrades could not be added to out existing farm???? Was very excited until I found out it wouldn't even be attached. Would like to keep all my items together and grow with it. Didn't want two farms. Thanks anyway, guess I will leave as is and do without the 2nd farm. :(

I know the devs are working on a solution to the disappearing xp points. If there is a list we have to add our name to, to report the problem ... I am also losing xp points. They either don't make the trip back to my farm or they disappear after I return to my farm. This happens even when I stay on the farm that hired me until all the plowed fields play through.
Thanks for the new upgrades!

Not a major problem except that it is a problem.
I have in a number of instances lately, lost a few XP's when leaving a Farm after plowing for someone. The numbers vary with the maximum caught being between 175 to 180 points and usually in the 40 or 50 point range.
Can't seem to find a way to stop it!

I've been having issues losing coins, and recently found that the big seeder & big harvester do not work properly on my farm. I bought both pieces of equipment and it worked the 1st day I purchased it. After that day it only will seed or harvest one plot at a time, but yet still using fuel as if 4 plots have been seeded or plowed. WOW, I sold both pieces of equipment for the miserly amounts. Was convinced by a farm neighbor that the equipment is now working, just now purchased the seeder again........and it only seeds one plot at a time and still using fuel. DANG....HELP ME PLEASE.

SunnyD
Dec 01 2009, 12:53 AM
Many of you may not have been here long enough to know but...... When the price and EXP requirements for your original farm was set, it was WAYYYYY harder to get coins and EXP.
Harvesting was extremely slow, hard to aim and catch the field to click it, and was harvested one plot at a time while you waited and your avatar kept going for long unplanned walks around the farm and you had to wait for it to slowly return going AROUND fences, rivers, and hedges (not through them) before you could click the next field.
We were also not ABLE to plow any farm except our own.
It is so much easier to earn coins now by a mile. I've literally earned a million coins per day numerous times.
There were no raspberries then either - nor pineapples, blueberries, or peppers. The best you could hope for was pumpkins. The shortest crop was 4 hours. And you had to plow your OWN field one square at a time while waiting for your avatar to finish each square before you could move to the next one.
The rise in price of the new farm may reflect how much EASIER it is to earn the requirements than it was then.
I sound like an OLD-timer....but it was only back in JULY!!! Farmtown has come a LONG way in a short time.
You are so right...... it is so much easier to earn coins now than when the game first started. I totally agree with you.....
Plus guys I think the have fixed the problem with loosing exp points and coins. at least on my end it is working .. I may be sorry for saying that and I may go back to loosing them though LOL but I hope not....almost ready to expand my 2nd farm which I named "My Secret Garden" cause it is just that.
and with the secret garden you can just grow crops on that and let it pay for all your decorations on your first farm.. so what is so bad about that? give it a break people and stop complaining oh please..... Great job Raul and team......thanks from this Georgia farm girl......

Ok, wasn't happy about first upgrade of levels since it managed to lose about 4000 of my XP (was counting moments to get to mansion, and it got further, not closer) But latest upgrade has cause bizzare things. 3 times lost full field of plowing. Today, harvested full field then got hired to plow, whoosh, all plants came back ... this happened both on my farm and with my friend who hired me... In other words, it took close to 3 hours to harvest 2 silly farms!!! and still crossing fingers they stay planted!

First, let me say "buh bye".
These "dumbass" devs DON'T work for you, you get to play the game for FREE and still you piss and moan. Dude, you get what you pay for. Try a little appreciation for the people who put in a lot of work , creating a game, and trying to please a lot of very different people. Personally, I think the developers should be allowed to unceremoniously kick anyone who whines about "well, I waaaaaaaaaaaaaanted to expand my existing faaaaaaaaaaarm" off the game.
This is a classic case of "much wants more".
Developers, thanks again, I love having the second farm and am enjoying all the updates. Y'all are working really hard to keep those updates and additions coming quickly, for our enjoyment.

I upgraded to a second farm and have been having problems refueling my harvester & seeder. When I go to the refuel icon and click on it I am informed that I must own a seeder or harvester to use this option. I have even put the harvester on one farm and the seeder on the other with no change. The fuel level icon has also disappeared when this issue occurs. I have closed farmtown with no difference; closed facebook with no difference; internet explorer with no difference; and even restarted the whole computer with no change. I have 3 gigs of ram and no other issues on any other facebook features and did not have this issue until I got the second farm.

You visit your friends farm and click one of the diamonds in the upper left corner. Chances are it will have your farm or second farm name when your cursor hovers over it but it does take you to your friends' 2nd. If there are no diamonds up at the top, your friend or neighbor has not purchased a second farm. Hope this helps :)

I am now living on the pc again trying to get to level 44 so I can buy said land! In the meantime I have a neglected house, neglected kids and neglected dogs.....
I will hold you all totally responsible when my kids are tyrants, the house falls down round my ears and the dogs are ....well...just dogs!!
It is a terrible thing you have done, you should be ashamed ;)
From a very ungrateful Farm town addict :rolleyes:
OH My God yes me too
My poor kids are eating Happy meals again...... My dog is crossing his legs don't get to go for walks any more.. I have made a long leash and tied it to the boyfriends big tool box on the back porch so he can get out once in a while and the kids have to let him out oops forgot to feed the gold fish be right back LOL........
I am on level 46 got to go to the MarketPlace trying to get to Level 47 to expand my farm again see you all later.......
oh by the way when did you say the Christmas stuff is coming out oh man so much to do so little time....oh a thought for Christmas can we spread snow with the watering can instead of watering flowers with it... I suggested it in the Holiday thingy but not sure anyone read it can you help Mew????

hi Wild thang ,
that is exactly what is happening and as per my additional post $1695 for moving a dolphin hedge to the additional farm !aargh!!!!
love having the extra space but don't want to get charged extortionate prices for moving stuff i know its only earnt coins but that is not the point that is not sharing in my view.
Can anybody tell me if this is happening to them? if i move it back to the first farm no charge is made just to no 2 farm.
I've moved several things between my two farms with no loss of coins or points.

Well it's past "Early next week"......
You satisfied a very small minority with the overblown 3 mil 2nd farm, but thousands have asked for Christmas.
I'm going on strike until decorations for Christmas come and I do hope they aren't the pitiful puny junk that was for Thanksgiving and Halloween.
I'm very disappointed in the game right now.
May my crops wither and die.... :):rolleyes:

So wouldn't it have just been easier on the servers to just give us more land instead of doubling the amount of farms?
From what I understand the limitation on expanding an existing farm is the flash player. Not to mention needing a 32" screen to see your farm at one time.

i did get the option to buy another farm, but i am not interested in this.
i have been checking farm town every few days to see if we get to expand our farms, and growing 3 day crops.
but if this is an attempt to keep customers that can no longer expand it will not work with me.
i guess now i can stop bothering to check on farm town.
i am, glad there are several other farm programs that i enjoy that will take the place of this one.
Is there a farm program that will let you go bigger than 24x24? I haven't played them all but the other major one just recently got to 24x24 and has serious issues since then.

Greeting's, I like the design of the new item's and farm's you have released, BUT...
You have taken the fun factor from the game by cutting profit margin's and not correcting the ongoing Glitches and Failures as a whole. I planted plowed and harvested my farm's and instead of making coin to buy the new goodies ...it cost me more coin then I made...I have given it my best with several planting's but to realise you have slashed the amount of coin we make per harvest it just plain dumb on your part.
I know several players that are now considering leaving this game to go back to Farmville where at least they handle the Glitches first then the upgrades come after.
this game has too many Video Glitches, The new Crops are extreamly hard to harvest for some of us, somehow u have slowed down the ability to harvest fast and now takes forever to harvest anything ( again lowering our profit margins)
Plowing 1000 squares and only getting credit for 248 of them, Fix what you break before releasing what new items you create because if u continue on present NOTICED course ...your gonna have so many broken thing's that you wont fix anything.
I know of Several hundred players that are unhappy with your current course of inactions and non responciveness in the forums and in fixing the game,
me myself, this game has become a overglorified chat box to talk to friends on that have no other means of chatting. it used to be fun to play, now its just a time consumming chunk of glitched junk on the internet.
Ya it looks cool and the Graphics are decent but why bother playing? if as a player you cannot advance in a game?
I have done allot of Beta testing in my time on several hundred games, this game ranks maybe a 3 on a scale maxed at 10 being the best.
Fixes u need to fix, Experiance loss while Plowing on other farm's, Memory Bleed, CPU bleed, Server Disconects, Short timeout periods,loosing experiance and coins when returning home from other's Farm's(even after clicking save) and the list goes on...and on ....and on....

MAY I ASK WHAT YOU MEAN ABOUT FARMTOWN BEING A MONEY GRABBING OUTFIT, AND IT STINKING OF REAL MONEY?? PLEASE USE EXAMPLES WHEN ACCUSING SOMONE OF SOMETHING. YOU DONT HAVE TO PAY A DIME IF YOU DONT WANT TO. THEY DONT MAKE YOU BUY STUFF WITH REAL MONEY,AND MOST OF THE STUFF ON FARM TOWN IS FOR COINS, WHICH YOU EARN FOR FREE PLAYING THE GAME. UNLIKE FARMVILLE WHERE ALL THE GOOD STUFF IS FOR FV CASH...:rolleyes:
Sorry but Farmville way exceeds Farm Town. The animals are money making animals. Unlike the Farm Town animals that just take up space. I have decided to get rid of them so I have more space!!!!

I have never personally seen memory or cpu problems on Farmtown. CPU generally runs less than 10% and memory around 10M. Compare that to a Zynga game such as Cafe World where the memory runs around 1G and CPU usage around 100%. Could be computer specs. Maybe invest in one with a spell check too.

Hi,
I have loved playing Farm Town and like the new upgrade, however, it's the same old thing...the "new" items that show up are just ok...what about Christmas stuff? Snowmen? Snow covered houses? Farm Town is getting boring...have you seen all the fun gifts and exciting new buildings in Farmville? Maybe you need to take a look at those. I really would rather play Farm Town, but it really is lame now...I'm so sick of sending the same old gifts...PLEASE create some NEW items to buy in EVERY category! I have friends who don't even play Farm Town anymore...they have switched to Farmville because of all the new stuff. I will continue to play Farm Town...just not as much as I used too :(

They said on the first post of the thread that "holiday" items should be coming early "next" week. That was this past Saturday so I am hoping it will be any time now. I am looking forward to the Christmas items as well. Snow covered houses is a great idea. Maybe even snow covered grass?

Love having a second farm, wasn't going to get one just yet, but harvested for a lady yesterday, who said everything was working good. So went for it last night.
Now flipping back and forth and loving it.
Thank you guys.
Two wishes please
1. Please get the Christmas stuff out, soon, have to go back to work on Saturday, and would really love it before then.
2. Would people stop comparing this game to Farmville, farmville is a cartoon of a farm, nothing looks real, it looks fake
well atleast in my opinion
but, everyone have a happy farming day

I've had the message over the chat box problem for quite some time. This isn't a fix but it will get it out of the chat box.
Move your cursor to the side of your screen off of the farm screen. Press the control key on your keyboard and adjust the scroll button on your mouse just a notch and that should move the message line up from the chat box. :)

That's strange on item 2 there. I thought the animals looked more cartoon like here on Farmtown. As far as the other graphics I would agree with you though. :)

Houses with Christmas lights on them would be cool too. I really want them to release it already. I mean, It's Wednesday, the week is half way over already. Plus it would be cool if they have like fences with lights, and etc... I have been saving up all my farm coins for this! lol :)

PLEASE FIX THE XP's & COINS!!! This is WAY MORE IMPORTANT than anything at this point! Players can NOT play under these conditions!!!

HI , Love Farmtown, but since you added new levels, I can't use my seeders, they will only plant 1 field at a time now. I have plenty of fuel, that it does still use. Also having problems plowing since then. sometimes it'll plow the field and the next field it'll turn to grass and then I can never get that field to plow. The square that highlights over the field to plow stays red. I don't know what's going on here, I'd sure would love to buy a second farm, but if i can't plow, how i'm I to farm. Sure would like some help with these issues. thanks so much. Farmer Bev

turn your trees off, then press play. go to the prefrence tab and make sure "remove spaces" has a check mark next to it.
try to plow again and see what happens.

I am very excited to know that we can finally expand our farm property, however I think the price is Ridiculous for the property. No matter how much money I have, I would never spend that $3 Million on it.... And I do believe that I am a wealthy farmer. I wonder how many others feel the same? I have discussed it with my neighbors and they all seem to feel the same way.
Very excited for the Christmas decorations and cannot wait to see what you come up with for the Holiday. Thank you for the fun Halloween and Thanksgiving options. We all enjoyed them .
Happy Holidays to all!

Nope. I think they range from 100,000-600,000 coins.
Yeah, the coins required for land expansion on the second farm are heftier than the farms we all started out with. But IMO it's well worth the coins you have to spend. By the time you're of a level high enough to buy a second farm, you should be well-set in coinage (Unless your original farm is designed as something other than a working farm ie: artwork, all gardens, etc.) You should be able to afford at least the 3 million. YMMV of course, and I know lots of farmers who spend their crop money as fast as they make it. But so many farmers squirrel their coins away.
I was about a million short when the release came out, and like a little kid, I wanted that second farm, immediately. <g> I ended up buying the farm cash necessary to get it ($120 Farm Cash). I don't regret doing that at all. It cost me $20 and I consider it well-spent money to get my other farm. Plus it's like a little donation to the game, They Who Have Given Me So Many Hours of Fun!
Again, YMMV.

I appreciate the ability to buy the second farm, including the upgrades, and I don't think the price is bad.
I'm using the second farm to use for crops, and at some point, after the Christmas items are released, I will go back to the first farm, plow up a significant portion of fields, then remodel and buy the manor along with other assorted goodies!;):p

The great thing about the option for a second farm, and all the new goodies is that it gives us incentives. I can not WAIT to make level 50 to increase the 2nd farm's acreage... I'm planting Raspberries for points for the first time in months. (And I want a clothes line! :rolleyes:
