You all have to understand that Devs DON'T and Shouldn't communicate directly with users ... I am a designer and developer myself and in my position I always have a go between (an Administrator or a Liason) who speaks to the users. This is because the users WANT, WANT, WANT and are not particularly tolerant of a developer telling them that either it can't be done or it is going to take more time. ... Direct communication has been tried and DOES NOT WORK.
The Devs were very nice in telling us that Farm 8 and more levels would be coming in the next release, but even that doesn't work as shown by the constant badgering and whining on this board. If you have been around for more than a year you can probably remember when we plowed, planted, harvested and sold our crops ... then we had only ONE farm ... when there were NO facilities ...
Get off the backs of the Devs and let them work at their own pace ... you CAN'T RUSH the upgrades ... if they start rushing to bow to your incessant pressure and impatience the quality of this game will be affected ... and then they will have people whining about the problems ... the Devs are doing their job and have given us the best free game I have played on the internet ... If you are "bored" with the game perhaps you need to take a break and go play something else or go DO something else ... try playing the zynga games ... you will come back here grateful for the job the devs do ...
Now relax, have a cup of java and leave the Devs alone ... the upgrade will arrive when it is ready and will not cause the game to fall apart ...
My thanks to the Devs for a great job and for their attention to detail ... My thanks to the Moderators for trying to keep this a civilized thread ...  |
You couldn't have said it better Jennifer. While I do check the forums a few times a day to see if the new release is out I am not obsessed about it or whining like an infant about when it will be out like some are. To me it will be here when it is here like all the others. Just a thought...maybe it is taking extra time because it is going to be THAT good?. I remember when we had ONE farm and had to do all our plowing,seeding,harvesting one square at a time. There was no hiring others,facilities,fish etc. This game has come so far and the devs are AMAZING for giving us such a great game to play and I thank them. I also thank the mods who try their best to keep their cool and succeed when they deal with these people who just will not quit complaining and whining.
While I still go to my farm occasionally to plant,have it harvested or maybe fill facilities etc I am taking a break right now. I will NOT sit here ALL day long because the update MIGHT come out. I love the game too but that is way overboard. I return gifts my friends send,collect my eggs,milk etc and am content to wait for the update because one thing is for sure it WILL be worth every day we waited for it when it is here. This game is soooo much better than Z games. Those games are updated all the time but they have the glitches and bugs to go with it too that they take DAYS on end to fix if they get fixed at all. I want the new update too but I am patiently waiting for it...it is ALWAYS worth the wait when it comes to Farmtown!
