Suggestion: More Than One Building Slot

I do not think that it is fair that we cannot upgrade something on our main farm and then upgrade on a gourmet farm/flower farm! I can understand the one building limit on one farm. But I tried to upgrade on both my main and gourmet and it wouldn't let me. Do you think we should get another slot?

    Unfortunately Good games has expressed this will not change. People have begged for it since the game started and the first additional farm was added. We can kiss this dream good bye, it encourages the gold buyers to spend more so they can rush things. You'll get used to it the way it is, occasionally get mad, hit the table then shake it off and go back to playing! LOL Wish I had more encouraging words for you, but I already banged my head against this wall a long time ago. ;)

    i suggested that the mods put up a sticky thread listing the most frequent things people ask for that will never be added but it never happened.

    Glad you made a thread about this and to know the GGS position on it.

    I'm enjoying the game and think any artist, developer, or person who works hard on something in general should be rewarded - but one extra 'upgrade channel' per farm most likely won't put a huge dent in their earnings on gold purchases. They could even make it where the extra channel is purchased with gold or farm cash - or both. I'm not sure about everyone else, but I would buy extra channels before I keep shelling out the nuggets for rush jobs.

    I think it would make sense if we got a construction slot per farm. But that you would have to buy it with gold which would encourage people to go buy gold to buy the extra slots! It isn't fair to make us wait like 10 hours or more for something to finish building/upgrading! -_-

    More times than I can count, I've hit upgrade, or build, THEN realized I wished I hadn't. had other plans and now I'm stuck for the next 10 or more hours.

    now I won't spend gold on that one. Time to work on sewing and harvesting something else for awhile,
    or... just turn it off and go do something else for a day.

    So if the logic is to force spending on gold? My answer to that is I just leave. come back later and pick it up where I left off. Free.

    That's my remedy too.

    Just take time to save up the money and upgrade the thing you want before going to work/school or sleep. You can't save up so many money to upgrade multiple things at one time so it in my opinion useless to upgrade multiple things. Just plan everything good that you don't lose time with it.

    Yeah, but still, you might have enough money to upgrade multiple things and if you could do that right before you went to bed, you would have two things done! I still don't see why GGS won't look into this. This is making people miserable!

    You know, I don't necessarily mind the only one slot thing, but if I cannot build on multiple farms at one time, then I should be able to put items that are in storage on my main farm on my other farms. Yes, most deocs are quick to build, but trying to remember to squeeze them in between other build jobs is getting frustrating. If only one build slot, then the things I build should be able to move to other farms.

    That being said, I understand web coding somewhat and understand why there is only one slot, and for the same reason my suggestion will probably never be implemented either, but I thought I'd put it out there anyways.

    I feel it is very restrictive only being allowed to have one construction be completed at a time. Please allow a few things to be contructed at the same tim...i think people will get board otherwise.

    Malik is right. They feel it would take away from the strategy of the game. This issue has been addressed many times over and the answer is no.

    Even so there is definitely no harm in asking. Worse case scenario the answer is no :D.

    They already solved the problem...Its called "SKIP FOR GOLD" If they add a second building option then gold spending will go down.

    we have three different farms in this game but we can not update 3 things at a time ....only 1 thing can be updated ....so it will take lot of time to update the things which make this game slow ...so i request you please make game in such a way that we can update all three farm in a same time ...

    This game is meant to be played for a long time. We cant expect to have a Big Farm overnight. This takes time. As you hit higher levels, you might even find it difficult to keep enough funds in the bank to handle 3 upgrades at a time.

    Part of the strategy is upgrade planning and managing time wisely. Give it a couple more weeks and you should find the current set-up making much more sense.

    i know its a strategy game....but on higher level it will take 24 -30 hours in 1 upgardation...because of this the game would slow ..
  • Goodfella4Goodfella4 Posts: 432

    I understand what you are saying, but those upgrades also require between 8 and 20 million bucks to start. You will need those 30 hours to save up enough money to begin another upgrade. Unless you make 60 million dollars on your farm everyday. Right?

    its a visa-verse process... if we do not update the farm items regularly than we are not able to earn more money.. updated items give you more money in less time ...my concern is there should be separate updation for each farm...

    It's not going to happen. Plenty of us have absolutely no problem advancing our farms despite only being able to upgrade one at a time. We earn plenty of money by strategically upgrading buildings and supplementing with decorations.

    Patience is the name of the game here. Sounds like you need some.

    What's your hurry? This game is too fun to rush through! 8o
    And those players who replied to this thread are quite experienced thank you.
    It's also very rude to address others as "you people". :(

    I would also like to have the option to upgrade more than one thing at a time. If you don't want to, that should be a personal choice, not a forced choice.

    This has been asked for before and simply won't happen.Unless you choose to use gold to skip the building of things on your farms this is the whole idea behind the game.If you build everything up all at once the game would then become quite boring as patience is part of the game.So just be patient or use gold to skip it's the only options we all have here.

    Why can we not build on each at the same time, it would save a lot of frustration as it takes so long to build each item, don't mind the time but would make game more enjoyable

    This has been asked for many, many times and the answer has been consistently a No, and I can't see that changing

    Big Farm is as much a strategy and time management game as it is a farming game. And the game's developers have worked a balance out for this. So to allow 2 (or more) building slots, even on different farms, would mean rebalancing and extending building times to even longer than they now, just to get to a similar position, a similar balance, to what we have now.

    Even if there was a change of heart and two buildings slots were introduced upgrades and additional plots get very costly indeed. I think you would very soon run out of Dollars.

    Samty pretty much said it all. It's not planned for the forseeable future, and most probably won't be planned afterwards - it just doesn't make much sense for our particular game.
