which are the best cooperative?

lilbitnova (GB1) · 19.10.2016

do you ask for gold contributions?

SammiMayo (US1) · 20.10.2016

Hi. Right now I only have room for 5 people in our coop. How do you change it to allow for more to join?

ninjahuman (AU1) · 20.10.2016

You need to do a research called "Recruitments", which allows more members in your cooperative.

That would depend on what you think is best. I suggest you take a look through the co op rankings and check the forum under "Cooperative News" to learn more about the different co ops and what heir requirements are in order for a player to join them. It may give you some insight to which may be the best. or at least for you

I do not ask for any contributions except for collectibles for the co op projects. Once a member has managed to work them selves up to the point of appointed deputy, then I ask for cash donations when and as they can afford it

How do you add spaces for members to a cooperative because all of them are full?

Data King (US1) · 23.10.2016

Your co op need to do the recruitment research to increase the number of members your co op can have.
This may help https://bigfarmtips.wordpress.com/2013/11/20/how-to-add-more-than-5-members/

Look for co ops that are looking to add members. To do that go to the bottom of your game screen, click on the 4th tab "Multiplayer features" then click the top tab "Rankings" once that window opens click the second tab on the top "Cooperatives" in there you will fine all the co ops on this server. You will see some with a man and a magnifying glass these are co ops looking to add members.

Co-Op Gold, you said, quote, "The dollars and gold you pay into the co-op accounts on the first tab (handshake) are for researches and researches only", however our co-op members have not found a way to use the GOLD to start researches. Where should we look?

FYI, we would like to use co-op gold to hire researchers instead of personal gold.

@Garinth (US1) The gold and farm cash that coop members donate to the coop's fund is used for the Start Up of Researches that require Gold instead of farm cash for instance the research in the "Cooperative tab" Subsidies you have to start that research with gold. Everyone in the coop can purchase the 1st spot with farm cash and BUY additional spots (if needed) with their own personal gold from their own gold account. No farm cash or gold that is in the coops funds can be used to purchase research spots that can/should be filled by the coop members either buy their own farm cash or gold. There are only 2 researches that I can think of that require gold to Start the Research and that's Subsidies and Recruitment, if there are others I don't remember at the moment.

Also when you level up the coop your coop funds will get farm cash and some gold, that gold is for the coop funds. A lot of people see that pop up when the coop levels up and think that they are supposed to get that cash and gold.

Hope this helps clear up the question you had in reference to the coop funds.

The gold amount needed to start a research would be shown where the dollars in the green circle is in this image. Sorry, I didn't have time to find one that required gold.

httpsbigfarmtipsfileswordpresscom201406research-menu1jpg

You can only use coop gold to start research and buy the boosters in the Cooperative Championship, sorry.

Which cooperative projects are easier/easiest?

We change between ægs , milk and apples, this way we always have enough collecter-items.

Uncle John (GB1) · 31.10.2016

They all become harder the more times you do them. (Larinos Corner has a spreadsheet showing the quantities required and how many repetitions before they increase)
I find the first 4 fit in with normal farming; the rest require the co-op to do things specifically for the project.

You need more information about this "mission" to do a cooperative. I like you have been with this game over 3 years now and never heard of such a mission/task/quest. Maybe get a screen shot or have the member type exactly what is says.

@_Hashem_ (INT1) If you take a look at this link I am providing for you, it will answer all your questions about the coops and big farm. Look at Larinos Corner and @CrazyBigfarm55 (US1) blogs in this link.

As far as donating money and gold that really is an option and your choice of how much and when you can donate. If you do join a coop you will have to use your farm cash for signing up for researches, there are also some researches that can only be started with gold so the coop as a team has to raise enough gold to be able to start those researches. A lot of the coop that have completed all of their researches generally use the coop funds and some gold do buy booster for the coop challenge (this could be why they ask for donations as well). I don't make it mandatory that my coop members have to give gold or farm cash they donate what they can when they can. Remember this also you can donate farm cash and gold to your cooperative account, you can not give/donate money/gold to anyone in the cooperative from your account. If someone as you to give them money to purchase gold for themselves..........well I would exit real quick do not give them access to your personal finances or your login info.

You will need to find a coop that is on the same server as you are playing which is INT1. When shopping for a coop ask a lot of questions about them and their requirements and what they expect of their players. If they replies don't fit your playing style just keep looking till you find one that will.

Good luck.
