    @JustMe (US1)  If you ended the horse season in Platinum or Diamond leagues, the Crystal Carriage deco should be in your dropbox as usual & the Snowbound skin was for the farmhouse on your main farm, so if you click that & go to the paint point, you should find that.

    pardon me  the horse trailer is for this season

    no carriage and had looked several time but saw it on other's farms

    already had the skin as a reward from something else & thought it would be able to be applied to GF or FF farmhouse but no -- why not?? - & nothing shows of having an extra one -

    so how am i also to determine i received the GML either??? I sure do not take snapshots of my inventory before and after every reward -- GGS needs to start walking the straight and narrow and cough up the stated prizes

    this is absolutely ridiculous - these are regular & stated prizes to normal events  -- this happened with a prior horse season & never received the rewards either - went through support at that time - 

    except for my very first horse season a year ago I have always finished platinum - this last time lvl 3 
    Are you talking about this CARRIAGE that you have built on your gourmet farm?

    Has anyone spotted Frida yet with her new skyline? Fingers crossed it'll be a dollar one and not another 72k gold one  :D

    Its another gold one, didn't bother to check the price  .
  • "Other Changes

    This update also comes with a few things that will help the team be ready for some future events (such as updating reward lists) and some other general balancing updates, again to help be ready for some future events. There are also some changes in how assets are managed, but this does not affect players except to speed up certain processes in the game slightly."

    Did this so called BALANCING have anything to do with the disappearance of OVER 11,000,000 Competition Horseshoes from my account???

    @ESP2014 (US1) Not at all  :o  If you are sure that you did not use them, in Santa's workshop for example & they are still missing after reloading your game (CTRL+F5) then you will need to do a support ticket. Also make sure that you are running the correct version of the game, if you right-click on your farm you should see this number: 
    V4.0.931 S99.579.0 iXML5318

    AWESOME as of 16:00 MST I no longer get a MISSION REPORT & also do not get a chance to start another mission within 3 minutes to get the 10% bonus.


    I'm getting a mission report only about every third or fourth time since the CC started.  Very aggravating.
    Now I'm not getting the mission report at all ... not a single one.  Not even sure if I'm getting RPs.
    @ESP2014 (US1)  @artful (US1)  Is this still happening? :/

    silly question but where is the horse trailer and ice palace from the last horse racing season found ???
    @JustMe (US1)  If you ended the horse season in Platinum or Diamond leagues, the Crystal Carriage deco should be in your dropbox as usual & the Snowbound skin was for the farmhouse on your main farm, so if you click that & go to the paint point, you should find that.

    So Frustrating.  I  cleared COOKIES, I cleared CACHE (for all time)...still no go.  Then I shut down the browser, cleared cookies & cleared cache on re-open & still no go.  I opened the game on another browser (that FLASH CRASHES EVERY 30 MINUTES) then closed it down, cleared all cookies & cache on that browser, restarted my gaming browser, cleared cookies & cache AGAIN & it finally worked.

    THIS IS TOTAL Bull Malarkey.  I am SO SICK of this game overloading & crashing my browser every 30-90 minutes.  RIDICULOUS.  I would rather see Pac-Man quality graphics & be able to play the FRACKING game than refresh/restart/clear & refresh/restart the browser every hour.

    @Michiru (GB1) The new skyline is around 15,000 gold, give or take a little. I can't remember the exact amount.

    14,900 gold.. Very close Jess, only missed it by 100 gold. :)

    Flash has suffered from massive memory leaks since it was first released.  Can't lay total blame for this one on GGS. Fortunately, they're working on a Flash replacement, using HTML5 & Javascript; when that's ready for release for the browser game, it should offer a much better responsiveness that the Flash based game has suffered from.  The Mobile version of Big Farm is already coded that way, but as has been pointed out, that's a completely separate game from the Browser version, so we have to wait for them to port it over. :)

    If any "rebalancing" is needed....It is most definitely needed for the "Wedding Event".  Everything on the flower farm takes a long time to grow (gardens) and a very long time to process (distillery, flower shop, and mixing plant).  The orchards also take 3 hours.  The amount of pearls that drop are very minuscule when you account for the amount of time everything takes to grow or process.  My thoughts-my opinions!

    Agreed. That event needs a BIG re-balancing. 

    Some other 
    re-balancing that needs to be done it the amount of gold they want for decos and skins. If it was lower more people would buy and some more than once.

    The fishing contracts or the fact we have limited Shrimp/Clam feild. Every contract want 100 or each and we got 40 from a pool that hardly ever comes around.

    The Food truck event could use some balanceing as well.

    Coop village needs to have the by  products 
    re-balancing. You get 40 maybe if you hire a specialist and yet it calls for 15,000-20,000

    The amount of time we have to do Temp Islands need to be 
    re-balancing back to the full 30 days to complete event.

    I also agree that the FHWE should NOT be touched.
     
    The other thing that should be RE-Balanced is the support team. Now I am not speaking about the mods on here but the lack of support when you place a ticket in. IF you get a response it take months, and the answer is always some kind of a brush off. If GGS wants to re-balance they should start there.

    @stef7 (US1) Sorry to hear you are still experiencing such problems with support. :(  Waiting time does vary,depending on the type of issue & also whether or not it is something that the dev team are investigating, so that support have to wait for the outcome, before they know what action is to be taken. But it should never take "months", if you got an auto-response confirming receipt of your inquiry. You can always contact a mod to check that your ticket is in the queue & what the hold up is, if it has been more than a week or so.

    Thanks Wabbit that is what I end up doing 50% of the time the other 50% I just give up. 

    I do have to add I have gone to Wabbit with a few support issues and she has taken care of them and gotten me taken care of and I am grateful.

    BUT we should not have to go through Wabbit  or other Mods to get support.  Support should do there jobs in the first place.

    Also not everyone can come here to get help. Example is my daughter or Mother who can not come here and ask for help because they have been banned from the board. (one of the mods banned both claiming all 3 of us are the same person) So my Mom puts a support ticket in and gets a wacky answer or no answer she can not come here for help. 

    So yes Wabbit SOME of us can get help here from you to get a problem fixed and again thank you but a lot are still left in the mercy of support alone and they do not do a good job at all. A lot of tickets go unanswered or it takes months. When you do get an answer it is usually something that make no sense at all.  EXP: when I put a support in for missing snowman I was told to come to the board so I can learn how to play the event. (hellow I played the event and did not get the deco) An other EXP is I sent a friendship invite to my Mom then helped her set up her game using the email and yet our account did not get linked. Seems that part of the game was broken and we did not know it. Both of us sent a ticket in and Mom NEVER got a response. The response I got was that I can only get friends if I invite them.  (I would not be in need of support if I had not invited someone)  Now I went to you and you got the whole thing straighten out but had I not been able to go to you like so many; then there is no support.
