Praise: The Landscape Designer
I now have a veggie patch back on my farm and a pile of goods, both with very good happies
I love that you can use dollars, parts or gold too!
The only thing I dislike is that it defaults back to 'use gold to improve.' It's just paying attention ofcourse, but I already managed to do it once....
All in all a totally awesome improvement to the game! Thanks a lot!

Surprise!!!! The latest update made it possible to upgrade decos. However, it is event based and is only possible when the landscape architect is on your farm. She is on mine at this very minute. She lets you dismantle the decos you don't want for parts that will let you upgrade/increase happiness of the ones you want to keep. Or you can upgrade them for cash or gold.
Happy farming!!!

This event is an excellent way to spend the farm cash. I find this very motivating to continue playing Big Farm.
I hope the frequency of the landscaper event will be at least once a fortnight.
I cant online due the bad connection and personal reason
The decos look the same. They just increase in happiness.
He has already logged off/on, that did not help. Also he cleared cache, did not help either.

first of all, thank you for such nice feedback!
We're glad you like this addition to the game, as we planned to implement it based on your suggestions to begin with.
The landscape architect is available from level 50. Unfortunately we cannot currently offer this event for lower level players as it would become too expensive and confusing for players in these levels and we would like them to focus on the decoration struggle in the first couple of levels in order to first teach the basics before making them upgradable.
Maybe one day there might be a low level version of the event - with some more limitations in place. I won't make
any promises, though, for the aforementioned reasons.
Regards,
Steffi
It would have been nice if this bit of info had been included in the official announcement.
*warning* when upgrading check that you are using the currency you wish each time you bring up a new deco - dollars, parts, gold
Thank you GGS
I'm so happy
If GGs fell this to be true for what is a relatively simple event,
how on earth can they make the Island/Shell Trader/Greenhouse/Ship/Horse Training/Horse Breeding/Equestrian PvP Competition available at level 30?
Do they feel that this is neither expensive nor confusing?
There would appear to be some inconsistency!!!!!!!!
P.S
Like everybody else, I think the landscape designer is fab, a great addition to the game, well done GGS.
This does cheapen the value of the + 90 temporary Island decorations. Why spend over 100 million to complete all 3 chapters to receive the Large Sand Castle when you can complete a Specialist difficulty weekly themed event + 78 and upgrade it to + 90 way cheaper than 100 million? With that 100 million you can probably get it well into the 100s. Just an observation. Yes, you need the shells/runestones for the greenhouse seeds, but the deco doesn't mean as much now.
I feel sorry for the players that participated in the orphanage charity drive for the telescope decoration. I know of some players that spent 200 million + for that high happiness telescope and this update has cheapened it. Having said that overall its one of the few updates this year thats quite good and beneficial to the farmers.
I will agree this can be expensive, but on one hand a player can use it with no money expended, or they can go bankrupt using it. On the other hand, the temporary farms guarantee a player will spend a lot of money to complete them or even complete a single level.
Bottom line, anyone should be able to access this event even at level 20
well done GGS, for once at least.
Buying better deco's, themed events with better deco's, wheel of fortune, the island etc.
They even adjusted the happiness rule to make it harder to run a farm without them.
A lot of rules where changed to make the game harder.
With this upgrade this whole concept is thrown overboard.
I like the update sofar, but I do see some dark clouds in the near future.
I think we ought to give this update a chance Trippel2
I can easily say, that Landscape Architect is one of the best additions, and the least glitchful so far.
I do agree, that a challenging, more competitive game is more entertaining & it holds the attention for longer, than a game you play and everybody wins non-stop.
I have been collecting the deocs, same as you. Events participations to get great decos without using gold are a MUST !! It's also fun and a sense of satisfaction from completing the Event (no matter what level the farm is and the deco).
Lately I have been pondering what am I going to do with those winning decos - as I'm running out of farm space to put them in and selling them for extra farm cash is simply, so poor it's not worth it
The update feature of Landscape Designer provided me with a descent use of "extra" won decos from Events !! They will be taken apart for parts to upgrade the chosen few, which will remain on my farms
Another valid point is - the first visit from Landscape Designer, pretty much cleaned my drop-box & stored in inventory, unused decos
Sincerely - I would not worry, between spending the extra cash on building Island Events and now upgrading the decos, GGS provided an awesome use (spend) for the hard earned cash ....which otherwise was always sitting in the farm bank doing nothing , lol
Enjoy the update, do some garden work for Spring !!
Well done GGS, one of my fave updates in game - enjoyable & refreshing, thank you for the gift !!
(ps. also I think, everybody in the forum is so use to complaining all the time, they would not recognize something nice and useful, in updates even, if it bit them in the "ars", lol)
The fact that it starts at level 50 seems about right to me, as it means the challenge of the game is still there for the crucial part, while you are building your farm & there are also those tasks for "have x number of decos on your farm". Once you get to level 50, or just above, those tasks stop, you reach the top level for event decos, most of the build menu decos are unlocked & available to buy & you start to get a stash of decos in your inv & dropbox as well as some spare cash. So it "appears" to be set to the right level, time will tell. ^^
