Unhappy

Thanks for your hard work on all the updates. This last one really took the fun
out of the game. Not only do we have to wait on each plot as we harvest or, plow, we can not do anything else, like check a message that is waiting. We must wait until all the coins and xp's are accummulated before we can check the message. No fun, at all, anymore. Going to run a lot of us away.
Sorry.

Angry boring

This game is really starting to get boring because other games keep adding stuff all the time to keep the game exciting and you all should do the same or people will quit playing. This is a fun game when you give us something to work for.

I dunno. I've been playing the game quite a long time now and I have seen the developers work continually to make improvements. I give them kudos for all the work they do.

I would definitely like to see the levels increase higher than 60 though. It's easier to max to the highest level now that we are able to have 2nd farms.

My avatar movement did improve from last night. However my points/coins go up so slowly it freezes me from moving.
After I harvest, and the farmer wants me to plow, he sends the request but I cannot get it until all my harvesting coins have gone up. I am basically frozen in place. If there are other people working, they continue to work and all the plowing is done when I finally get the request. It is very discouraging.
Please guys, go back to pre-Dec 22.

I admire the work they do as well. And I realize it's impossible to please all the people all the time. But for heaven's sake just roll the darn thing back to pre 12/22 TEMPORARILY and debug the code. The 12/22 update was a disaster, as have been every update to THAT update. If the issue is server space, THAT I can understand But IF that's the case, the developers should have thought about it before allowing people to purchase a second farm.

As to seeing any new levels past 60 anytime soon? I hope we don't. That would just mean the devs are spending time on expanding a "broken" game rather than fixing it.

I have refrained from commenting much on this but there is something I really would like to point out.

The truth is that we have no idea how the original 22 December update might have worked. A lot of folks just didn't like the sound of what the developers had done and went ballistic here on the forums. Seven hours later we had the first update to the update. And personally, I think that's where the real rot lies. Changes were made hurriedly to appease the squeaky wheels. And, as we've seen, every few days there have to be more changes.

I sincerely hope that when this is sorted out that the developers never ever again rush to fix something before we really have the chance to find out if it was broken.

Thank you very much for everything you are doing to make this game even greater than it already is.

When you first introduced the 22nd December upgrade, it was fine..but this last week, I have experienced lots of problems with slowness on my second farm...strangely my first farm seems to be ok....just thought I would post this as feedback for the developers.

Can someone tell me please, how do I find out which server I am on?..I notice lots of people posting and stating the number of the server they are on. I have no idea how to find out...

Thanks.

When you first get on FT, in the chat box in red should be the server number "wf" something.

Which kinda supports what I've been saying all along. Roll it back to either the first 12/22 release, or the version just prior. Take the newer version(s) back to the drawing board and get it RIGHT. Then re-release. Instead of fixing the game itself they seem more concerned with changing the size of icons and other superficial stuff. Who cares how big (or small) the seed bag or the plow is as long as they WORK as expected? And I'm just so sick of having to hire 3 different people to plow/harvest my farms because they constantly get booted. I think some of the problems have to do with poor code, but a lot of it has to do with server overload. Like I said previously, I think they jumped the gun allowing second farms. I don't think they realized how many of us would qualify almost immediately, and the result basically slammed the servers. I for one, would be willing to give up my second farm if that's the issue. Providing ... They pull WF13 out of the rack, smash it to bits, and send me some remnants. :-)

100% agreed. Great post Candlelight!
