Thanks Mods.
Thanks MOD's
I can see why other issues have to resolved but isn't this issue being addressed?
Are you hearing us? Are you looking into it? or do you feel we all just messed up and need to do the island and shutup?
Tip: Keep and eye on you bank when you sell items to vendors, if the dollar amount does not change just log out and back into the game. This was glitch on the test server as well.
It did show up! Thanks so much for sharing this tip! I had this happen yesterday and just decided it was an update issue. Now I know I'm getting paid, I won't worry about it so much
The airport not showing data for the temporary farms, is intentional. not a bug - All info for temp farms is now available on the map screen by clicking the active farm.
The visual upgrades for the organic market only showing on the main farm section, is not intentional, the team are aware of this one, though bugs involving missing items obviously have a higher priority at the moment.
My problem today is the boat as I can't open it to fill it is stuck at the docks.
GGS has caused more problems then they should have done by rushing into rolling out the new designs before they had properly tested them & fixed all the issues we were having on the test farms. In 5 weeks of the test farms running very few of the bugs had been fixed. The test forum was totally full of people complaining about the amount of bugs we were experiencing. Not once on the test farms did we hear any feed back from GGS which one would have expected as we were supposedly the test bunnies. It would have been nice to know what was going on & what they expected from us. But I shouldn't be so surprised as we don't hear anything or very little from GGS anyway. Just like they said they were going to give a report to us after we had all filled in the survey they gave us but todate nothing has been said.
The test farms look to have been a joke to make us think that GGS have been fully listening to us but instead they have only heard a small amount of what people have been saying or asking for.
When the market customers do not pay, they also do not take the goods as far as I know, there were some workarounds posted on the test forum, such as switching farms before clicking them if they have been standing there for a while, though I am not sure how effective that was.
The ship not always being clickable is a known issue, but if you click the surrounding dock area that should open your ship. Please let us know if that is not working & if you are getting any error reports for it at all.
Thank you.
The customers were/are taking produce without paying as I was experiencing on the test farm but it was a hit & miss as sometimes they did/do pay & sometimes they didn't/don't take anything. The changing of farms on the test server was not a good workaround of the issue as the problem remained & was never fixed
This is what i had when i tried to build a tree.
Then i organised decos i have left and look what happened when i changed farm.
Tried to have trees in "line" changed farm and got back
See, not in line anymore..... I hate this situation. Hope they can fix it as soon as possible. And most of all, hope we can have back lost decos. AND hope we have a really good compensation, this is so frustrating. My co'op friends are already thinking to leave the game
Now can you address my issue of Viking Island task saying I added the certificates and have opened the island? I didn't and neither have several others in this forum. I have been playing for almost 2 years now and have never done this island. I don't want to do this island yet. I have enough seeds to see me through and now I can't fill ships because of it. Maybe only 5 of us mentioned it but we can't be the only ones affected by it.
I understand that only a few of us have mentioned it but it is still an issue and for me it is a big one.
She emptied her entire inventory, donated everything to the coop and that was it. Now I have several others thinking of leaving the game and I can't do anything to change their minds
It is so hard to find great coop members these days.
What the heck? When do we get our things back?!!!
And what of the lost dollars for extra production costs? Or no production capabilities for those who lost fields/orchards? At least I got those placed before everything went haywire.
We didn't ask for this and now our flower farms are compromised- our biggest money makers... what kind of compensation do we get for that?
ah ha, yes, some of you are absolutely right. this is just a game. so nothing to get all worked up about. i completely understand that point of view. the thing is though, not everyone looks at Big Farm that way. there are plenty of us playing this game very competitively. and just like no one who takes this game very seriously can tell those to whom this is just a fun little game that "they should work harder", no one who plays this game "just for fun" can tell any of the very competitive player that this is "just a game".
so for now lets look at things from a competitive players point of view.
being competitive at this game means that it is all about efficiency, all about doing everything that is most worthwhile as quickly as possible.
i have not read all the posts, but of those that i read there were only two types of positive comments: the very general "i like the changes" and the more precise "i like the new ring for feeding...". the ring thing starts off as a good comment which debunks my whole "absolutely nothing good" thing except that most if not all of them end with "except that..." so in the end the ring is still a bad change. it s like we were eating cereal with a spork and GGS took that away and replaced it with a froon (a reverse spork). it works kind of just as well but it s not better so why change it? now we have to go into the farm management page and click through up to 5 windows to see how much feed we still have. waste of tiiiime!!
the world map!! it s just fluff. it s just pretty for prettiness. it s certainly not useful. to access the world map you have to click on the top part of the, umm i ll call it the "what s ready" tab on the right of the game. so if you have to go click in that area for the map then click on whatever farm you want to go to, why not click right away on the farm you want to go to in the "what s ready" tab? we could all manage to get from one farm to another without the world map before. there is also no information that i am getting from the world map that i could not get in very easy ways before the changes. which means there is no need for the world map!! if you are going to put something into the game just for the sake of prettiness then do just that and do not try to make it into something "useful".
side buildings now have specific farms!! why?? it used to be quick and easy to access any of those buildings; the garage, the airport, the horse ranch, etc. now it s just more clicking for no good reason, more loading of different screens for no good reason. waste of tiiime!! oh and you know that tractor, the farm flash, that only affects your bakery, am i the only one that finds it funny that we cannot access it on the gourmet farm.
another level of upgrades to buildings and plot expansions!! very expensive. which means that only a few people will get all the plots and all the upgrades. which in turn means that the gap between those players and those of us who are not ridiculously rich will just get even bigger.
they removed one level of upgrades that need the architect. wait that s only because they added a new level of building upgrades and three levels that would require the architect would just be ridiculous so it was not done to help us out.
the change to the shape of the flower farm!! why?? WHY?? if the reason is "just because", that s not a good enough reason. if the reason is "so it s different" that is still not a good reason. they could have just added two rows of plots on one side and make a 5x7 farm that only has 35 plots instead of 36.that would really have been different. it would also not have messed anyone s flower farm up and made people lose decorations.
now for those of you who are just enjoying a little farming game, i understand that the reasons i gave may not seem like good reasons to you guys but look at it this way. you could have been just as happy with changes that had been done in a way that did not anger the competitive crowd as you are happy with these changes. so why not make most people happy instead of just some?
i read a few posts from people that were on the test server and they said that GGS did not bother doing a survey to see what people liked or did not like. is that true?? was the test server only to work out the bugs. umm... sad wow.
Thank you @WascallyWabbit!!
The test server was riddled with bugs most of which we are experiencing now plus some new bugs. We never did a temp farm or anything else on the test farm other than to start a new farm off from scratch. To me 5 weeks isn't a long enough time to iron out all the bugs & tweak the whole new concept that GGS wants to do.
There are a couple of things I do like but on the whole this doesn't make up for the whole mess that GGS has created. I thought the whole concept of the test farm was to get everything working properly with no faults before rolling it out to the big farm community. I have been very disappointed in the whole procedure of what has been done.
Now because GGS have changed the organic market I am starting to get contract at lvl 5 when all previous contracts were lvl 99 huge backward step!!!
Still no accessible Flower Farm or ship on the US server.
It took me over 6 hrs to access game tonight! Decided to try one more time around 1 AM MST and finally had log in screen! However disappointment set back in once i went that Flower Farm/ship--- time for bed! Hopefully when i get up later in the morning I will find that this whole Big Farm fiasco day was just a bad dream!
