    come on, really? must everyone always be so negative?

    the game is free to play: only you can decide if you want to spend real $, but no one should complain when you get to play for free.

    Hi gizmo22,
    It's the same production as normal fields, so the only saving is extra space, they'd been a lot better value if they needed less workers, but a bit more gold on blue house's you can put in more fields, with all the new fields you'll need 2 blue barns to store all the extra production.
    I think I'll give it a miss for now

    Exactly! They would have been a lot better value if less workers were required to run them. I don't think the space saving is reason enough to spend real money to buy these fields so i think GGS has missed an opportunity to give this upgrade more appeal. Less workers would be the obvious option with fields half the size, or higher production with the 10 workers......this simply makes no sense to me.

    Maybe the workers are smaller or something so you still need that many? :P

    Yeah, I figured for one field to get to level 5 it's like what, $20? Then multiply that by however many fields you might have, like 5-6. No thanks.

    Hmmm... maybe the workers are Pygmies? In which case, if you know the joke about the elephant, they'd better watch out for your elephant, jaystarr!!

    Even at level 1, 2 x fertile fields outperform 1 x lvl 7 normal field, with the exception of when they are loaded with normal wheat.

    You sort of do need less workers - not per field but per amount of crop produced

    A level 7 std field uses 22 workers to produce 21 corn
    In the same space two level 1 fertile fields uses 20 (2X10) workers to produce 30 (2X15) corn

    I have replaced 3 level7 std fields (oh that hurt :( ) with 6 level1 fertile fields for 2100 (6X350) gold. I have a slightly increased yield, (double the seed cost though) but have freed up the 6 workers I wanted for my Mill upgrade without adding a house and the concomitant unhappiness

    I am content with that but hope at the end of feb when I can buy a little more gold I can upgrade them to level 2 at a cost of 7,500 (6*1250) gold. I will never be able to upgrade them further :( , but hey ho, that's life, I still have a very productive profitable farm that I have improved with a better Mill

    I wouldn't mind to have one of the improved fields and upgrade it when i can--switching to all of the new fields just doesn't seem feasible. I struggle to see some things on my farm as it is, smaller fields would be not good.

    Has anyone gotten their 5 rose seeds yet? Just wondering when they will be given out and how long will it last? I haven't gotten any yet and was curious since the event is almost over (5 1/2 hours on my clock).

    Edit 4:42PM****

    I just checked my seeds as I was planting & noticed that I have 1 extra rose seed added to the 207 rose seeds I already had. Now I have 208 rose seeds.

    Thank you because, I love the roses and think they are so pretty when they are growing very nice color.

    I had my seeds already. Are you absolutely sure you have not planted them? or miss counted. Do you absolutely know the amount you had before you read that rose seeds would be given out? I have left a message for Latten. :) I hope you find your seeds.

    Farmer Tess- Hi, I just checked again just before I start to plant corn and all I have is the 208. When Latten announced that we would get the 5 rose seeds that when I went to see how many I had so that I would know the amount that I should have after they were given out. I commented to my coop member that I had 207 and I would have 212 after the free ones were given out. I wish that I had an unlimited amout of the rose seeds cause they look so pretty planted, they are one of my favorites. Although I haven't planted any of the others that I have won, keeping those for hard times & cash lol.

    Thanks for reaching out and looking into this. It's not a priority at this point casue I know that there are more important issues and farmers with more importanat issues than the rose seeds. Thanks again.

    Ok the reason why I asked is by the time I read that we would get free rose seeds I had already received them. Could this be the case with you too?. Hopefully latten will be able to tell you if they had already been given out when he posted the message.

    As a higher level player home sick with an epic head cold, I have decided to see if I can get the decorations I am missing. True, that is what the head honchos were wanting us to do when they released this addition but looking at the ones I am missing the only ones I have doubt about being able to get is the birdbaths. After doing research on them, I realize they were given out as a special event to lower level players to entice them to buy gold. If that was the case, I don't remember ever seeing them so my question is . . . is there a way or a plan to let higher level people earn these decorations if they did not get them the first time they were introduced? I apologize if this has already been addressed in this forum but my headache will not allow me to reread 15 pages of posts. :-)

    Edit: I cannot locate in the forum how to get the bridge decoration or the pretty rope lights decoration on level 10 in the tower . . . were these similar to the bird baths?

    Hey GeorgenollieUse,

    We are definitely going to introduce ways for higher level players to gain the bird baths if they desire to get them. I cannot announce when this will be possible, yet, but you will be able to get them sooner or later. :)

    As for the bridge - this a deco you can earn in the Prime Spending Event, if you use enough gold during the given time.
    The rope lights are part of another personal offer - kind of like the bird bath ones, but directed at other player groups for now - these groups will change from time to time, though, so everyone will get their chance to earn one of these. :)

    Regards,
    Steffi
