  • too costly. not playing the island farm with any sense of urgency. all of the money diverted from your permanent farms is highly problematic.
  • Ditto Koby122, mission play is UNATTRACTIVE now given that we cannot plan. I have no intention of sitting in front of my computer at 1:30am in the morning collecting corn, wildflower, and eggs. I run my farm for long-term missions -- cows, wheat, milk, dung, humus. This is absolute foolishness. The current logic of mission…
  • This is my last say on this subject: The implementation is worse than I expected. First, I do not run a mass production farm but wanted to one day. Second, all three of my farms on the US1 server were well over 100% before the update. Now, two of them are 80% and one of them is 90%. Third, I have no blue houses on any of…
  • This decision by GGS has led me to stop buying gold altogether. If there will always be an investment cost, then it really doesn't matter how many decorations you put on your farm nor the quality of those decorations -- gold or not gold. The cost of production at 0% is not that much, and you can still make money that way.…
  • this is some bullcrap; absolutely ridiculous. just because folks have found a way to play the game according to a different logic doesn't mean that GGS should change the logic of the game to punish folks who think outside the box. sure, there is icing on every cake. but the batter to this one is made of bad ingredients.…
  • the amount needed to get to the next achievement levels will be cut to a quarter as well. says so in the original announcement.
  • i agree. +78 happiness is almost not worth it. it's only worth seeing if i can get through it. but it'd be better to just do the second level down, twice, if you are getting through things quickly.
  • there is no "winning" in this game...this is a never-ending free-to-play game...there's no maximum level. the only maximum is the personal and coop rank of 1, which is a relative ranking for both. so, what is winning anyway for any one individual anyway? having the largest farm? ok, well, if that is your definition of…
  • thanks ezio auditore3. this was kind of my thinking on the thing. i mean, when i started playing four months ago, promise of a fourth farm was there. and the "coming soon" image in the village is still there. so, i'm thinking that a 4D farm game may have presented more challenges than they anticipated. such challenges…
  • well, first, congratulations on being retired. that's an awesome accomplishment :) this game is about the wait and about making the wait meaningful. upgrades only get longer and longer as you progress. as i recognized this, i increasingly managed my time to do more and more non-game stuff. if you had a chicken coop heavy…
  • Ditto Megs112. Now that I am not using my farm cash to expand, I actually have capital to upgrade my production and processing buildings, which can only be done with farm cash. Since eventually all of the upgrades are nearly or over $1M and require more workers, the extra spaces is really needed. Moreover, the cash price…
  • #1 - I doubt GGS is really a fan of equality or equal opportunity ethics. So, any logic on that rationale will just fall on deaf ears for 99.9% of the average audience. #2 - The vast majority of "free" internet games are designed to elicit real money from you. My approach is to be stingy with my money -- rather than to not…
  • thanks dragon pride. this is the logic that finally convinced me to throw some coins at this game. in free to play games, you either pay with your money or with your time. the question, then, is: how much is your time really worth? that being said, i also agree with fro3 -- all of these gold-focused updates are just…
  • Corn and chicken feed is the answer to finishing events on time. Grind it for the event collectibles that are typically demanded in the 2nd, 4th, and 6th stages. Event seeds and wheat as well when you have to be offline for a while. I only use my event seeds during the week-long events. I also build an extra field for…

  • i think the general logic behind the Undertaker's approach is that after a certain happiness level, the cost to produce is stable (i.e., the minimum happiness at + 300% running costs); therefore, a better use of space at that level is to boost productivity. the added productivity at the minimum happiness doesn't incur…
  • good tip on s-pen usage, hammerotg2. been playing with photon browser on samsung galaxy 3 for about a week now. starting to grow on me, as my preferred way to check-in during the day. otherwise, i am logging in from my Macbook, which is too large to carry around everywhere. tried some other flash browsers (FlashFox,…
  • For Samsung Galaxy 3 (Android phone) users, the trial version of The Photon Browser works well. It's a little slow and the objects are really small, but switching between touch mode, mouse mode, and drag mode helps create a similar environment as the PC browser. The Puffin trial version, however, does not work -- need to…
  • i've been on the fence about buying gold for some time now. i am finally in a place where i am almost there. but the ease at which gold is accidentally is a clear turn off. the ease at which upgrades are started are also annoying. maybe it is a result of using the touchpad. and maybe it occurs more often when my screen is…
  • Thanks Larino. This spreadsheet is amazing. I recently took on Research duty in my coop and have been curious about what is down the road for us. Your efforts tell me that we are still in the early stages of coop development (Coop Level 25). draas @ us 1 Level 52 Roes Farm Coop
  • Thanks Kat Nip2. I got invited to be a part of a coop soon as a I leveled up a bit. Your advice was very helpful. It's hard to show personality online, but I like this game more than others I play (Shipwrecked) because of the human interaction component. Best wishes to you on your journey onwards and upwards! draas
