Harvesting & Powing
I only hire 1 to 2 people on my farm at a time .. I like the faster harvesting & Plowing better ... this mess that U have done is BADDDDDDDD .. go back to the faster harvesting ... someone is always gonna complain .. no matter whatcha do ... just keep making it bigger & better .. we need to expand more & to Level up more ... 60 isn't enough ....

new release
I think it is a great idea to be able to hire one to plow, one to harvest. It slows me down so much to have ten people harvesting or plowing at one time. i have quite a few crops and only hire one or two people to work them, and they are usually finished very quickly.

Well written, and I agree. I will add though that the fact still remains that people are complaining of losing coins and xp. A fix was released, and then removed due to complaints on the forum. The forum doesnt even represent 5% (active users) of the total amount of people that play this game. Yet for some reason, the fix was short lived, basically due to apprehensiveness to the reaction of a small percent of people that post in this forum. I wonder what would have happened if Thomas Edison would have quit when people said he was crazy? Bottom line here is that Slashkey has alot of time and money invested in this game. Its thier game to design how they see fit. Sometimes, unpopular decisions must be made in order to better the game in the long run. This is one of those times. Raul, Bert, and the rest of the team and moderators, Look forward past the clouds to see the horizon. Dont let a few blur your vision.

I would like it if the developers would just forget about trying to update the harvesting and plowing. It worked fantastically how it was and didn't need any alterations. I don't think that only allowing one person to harvest and one person to plow is a good idea either. My vote is that you put it back to the way it was. If you should decide to implement a "one harvest, one plow" thing, you need to add an option to fire someone if they work too slow. I don't think that i should have to sit around and wait for the slowest harvester on farmtown to take four hours to harvest my farm, and that could easily happen. Would you apply a time constraint for how long one single harvester could be allowed to harvest a farm with 1024 plots? I am just worried that my farm would be hijacked by a person i hired and they sat around and did nothing, thus making it necessary for me to harvest my own crops so they don't spoil before they get done.

The new format is awful..It takes forever to plow.. Thank you for returning to the old version. I would have left the game for good. The operative word being game. It's supposed to be enjoyable and not a great frustration.

Suggestions
The new changes seem to work fine if there is only 1 harvester OR plower, but the second person hired seems to run much slower, whether they are hired to plow (behind a harvester) or as a second harvester/plower. I have no problems hiring only 1 person, but found it frustrating when I was hired as a 2nd (or 3rd) harvester/plower, only to have the first peron there "run circles" around me. (My machine has adequate memory and I'm at level 49, so not an experience/computer issue). My avatar only "teleported" when I was the first person hired... otherwise she plodded along quite slowly, regardless of direction of harvest (right -> left, top -> bottom, willy nilly :-))
I would suggest that you need to equalize the speed for all hired, rather than (what appears to be) a "First hired gets priority" system. Incidentally, I never lost coins/XP... they always registered correctly after a jump back to the market. I saved frequently while harvesting/plowing, tho, which may have helped. |

Thank you for reverting back to the old version! I spent an hour getting my two fields harvested yesterday and was starting to wonder if it was worth it. I don't hire three people -- just one usually -- so that slow version is REALLY slow.
I don't know about restricting to one, but how about 3 people harvesting or plowing? Nobody should need more than that and I've been on farms with 10 people hired. Thanks again Bert for listening!!
