Hi, Can anyone tell me where can I choose difficulty level for a quest or theme events? It is declared by the team that you should be able to choose it now. But when I opened the event, I can only see the difficulty level but there is nowhere I can choose a different one. Help!?(?(

    I ,too, would like to know the answer to that question. I wasn't able to finish the camping event. I found it difficult to finish with the allotted time. I'm afraid the fairytale theme will be the same for me. Time starts ticking away as soon as you click on the task! :(

    This is something only people that have completed the highest difficulty before can do. You need to have completed the level that provides the 74 happiness decoration and you also need to have built that decoration on your farm. If you hadn't, then this time completing the event will unlock the highest difficulty and the ability to choose difficulty next time the event runs. Next time, when you click on the event, it will not start running like it does now, but will give you the choice of difficulty - provided this time was the one for the 74 happiness deco. If this time was for a lower deco, then next time it will just run again without giving a choice.

    Mary: time does not start ticking away as soon as you click on the task, but it starts ticking away as soon as the event pops up. If you are offline for 3 days and the event has started on the first of those 3 you miss all those 3 days of time to complete the event, with only about 4 days left. The event runs on a fixed time, for a week, and you cannot influence the time it has left for you to complete it.

    The Asian event has just started. On my other 2 servers (AUS1, INT1) I got a choice of difficulty level but on my most recent account on the UK server, I didn't get a choice. The farm is at level 34 and I should have had a choice between 2 difficulty levels but it defaulted to the second and I have yet to do the first one which I would have preferred because it is easier. I have simply never done the Asian event on that server before so why did this happen?

    I have a similar problem, there are two players playing on the same computer in our house, I'm level 69 and my sis lvl 36. this is the second time I choose the level for the decoration but she can't and is stuck with my choice and can't complete cause I obviously pick the higher level. why is this happening and is there a solution to it? would appreciate an expert answer, thanks! :)

    Hey Stella_L22,

    could you please tell us which difficulty level is shown for both of you in the top right corner of the event map?
    From the sounds of it, you should both see 2 fans there.

    This would make sense, since your sister doesn't have a high enough level to choose her difficulty yet (you would have to have finished difficulty level 3 and this should not be available for her yet) and you were able to choose but picked the same?

    If this is not the same, screenshots could help us understand, what is going on for the two of you. ;)

    Regards,
    Steffi

    Stella_L2, at level 36 your sister should not have any option other than level 2. Since you are sharing the same computer, it sounds to me like the game is pulling the event level you chose from cache when she loads it after you got to start the event first. Therefore, the next time an event comes around, I would strongly advise clearing both browser cache and flash cache before the second player opens the event.

    kiki10, Latten has confirmed that you have to qualify for each event separately. So if you have not completed level 3 for this specific event before, you still do not get the option to choose. For example, completing the fairy tale event at level 3 two weeks ago does not count for this event; it has to be the Asian event. After you have completed each event at level 3, you should be able to choose the level for that one the next time.

    For events that you already completed at level 3 before the update that allows us to choose the level, you can unlock the option to choose by building the +74 decoration and unlocking it in the decoration tower before that event begins next time. But for events after that update, completing an event at level 3 should automatically unlock the option to choose for that event the next time.

    Nasi, it sounds like you're trying to log into the wrong server. Your farm is on the International server so you need to log out of the game you're in now, click on the server which is the drop down menu at the bottom of your log in screen and select International. That should get you to your game.

    To change the language of the game, after you've selected International, click on the flag next to that menu and you will be given a list of flags to select from. Select the flag that is closest to your countries, if your country isn't represented and that will give you the language you are after.

    hi all... please help me !! ?( I still confused with " difficulty level" in event.. what's it? and how do we get level "three/ third" di event to unlock "dificullty level. than you :)

    The theme events have the tasks set to difficulties according to player levels. The lowest level players have an easy difficulty to win a +54 decoration, higher level players have a medium difficulty to win a +54 decoration, and starting from level 43, players get the hard difficulty to win a +74 decoration.

    Once a player has completed an event at the hard difficulty, then the next time that event comes, the player can choose to do any of the levels, including the even harder Farm Specialist difficulty to win a +78 decoration.

    ok, thank you so much,montuos :) but, Do we must get level three/third level in completing an event at the hard difficulty to can choose/unlock any of the levels next time, dear ??
  • montuosmontuos Posts: 1,275
    edited 28.03.2014
    That's correct: you cannot choose the difficulty until after you have completed the event at the third/hard level. If you are below level 43 (level required for third/hard level), you do not get to choose. If you have never completed the third/hard level, you do not get to choose. After you complete the third/hard level, you do get to choose any level you like when that event comes again.

    Also, you have to unlock each event separately. For example, completing the hard level for the Asian event does not allow you to choose the level for the Hawaiian event or any other one; it only applies to the Asian event.

    im level 87 and i already have finished the hard level for the hawaiian event does that means that the next time i play the hard part of the hawaiian event will i be able to play the the difficult level?
  • montuosmontuos Posts: 1,275
    edited 28.03.2014
    If you finished the hard level this time, you should be able to choose any difficulty you like the next time the Hawaiian event comes.

    Edit: I just saw in the other thread Latten redirected you from that you were asking about re-doing the event at Farm Specialist level. You only get to do an event once each time it shows up, even if you finish with plenty of time left.

    But only if you have build the new Hawaiian deco on 1 of your farms, and then unlocked it in your Deco-tower!
  • montuosmontuos Posts: 1,275
    edited 28.03.2014
    Jiesta, that was what we were told we'd have to do before the update that allowed us to choose, so that those who had already completed the hard levels would be able to choose the very next time instead of completing that difficulty again. I think that it's supposed to be automatic now when you complete a hard level after that update. When the event cycle rolls back around to the Fairy Tale event (the first one that started after the update), I plan to pay close attention to what people report in the forum about their experiences. Either there will be a great big nothing, in which case we can presume that it really is automatic now, or there will be many wailings, in which case we can be sure that we really do have to build the decos and unlock in the tower! ;)

    hi guys, i recently completed the tessa camping event but i got no such option to choose the difficulty level of the event even though i have finished the +74% decoration task and i unlocked it in my library too!
    is that a bug in my profile only or some other players are also facing the same problem?
    i wanted to know if we need to be above a particular level to choose the difficulty level of the event. i am on level 55.do i need to reach a particular level after which i will be able to choose the event difficulty level or my account really has a bug?
  • edited 06.05.2014
    Have you actually placed the decoration on one of your farms? I think that is a requirement, that it is placed out there and in use.

    Just clarifying - before the Here's to Nature event started - you had already completed and earned the 74 happiness decoration (the large waterfall) or did you just earn it with this event?

    The difficulty is only chosen before the event and you can only do the event one time each time it is here. So if you just earned it, the next time the event comes around it should let you choose. Each event is separate so you have to earn the +74 decoration and place it for each event before you can choose difficulty level for that particular event.

    yes, i did complete it before the event started (completed the previous tessa camping event) and i did place it in my main farm too! i even unlocked it in my library....don't know what's wrong

    I think I may have figured it out . . . there are two high levels - one starts at level 49 and another starts at level 55 (which you currently are at) . . . the 2nd level requires more items for each level to be completed but you earn almost the same rewards as you do at the 1st level . . . including a +74 decoration . . . so it does sound like you have to be above level 55 to choose your difficulty. To see what I am talking about - check out the spreadsheet that Larino has on her website

    actually i reached level 55 while i was trying to complete the recent camping event.... so u mean to say all i need to do is wait for another event to come up and then the option to choose the difficulty level would be made available to me?
