New Release -- May 9, 2010

[Aero 1]

I love all the new addition that we have had and love all the factorys I have them all except chocolate factory just got the 3 new ones but i am finding it impossible to feed them as we need too many trees I have a lot of trees but when I harvest them there is hardly anything to show for it if I harvest 40 apple trees I get 40 apples surely each tree should have at least 10 fruit on it and that way we wouldn't need so many. I can't get many more on my third farm and I have them on my first and second farms too and I just cannot get enough fruit. Also the same with all the things that need to be grown especially the wheat which if you grow 900 when its turned to flour only gives you 450. I expect the same will happen with the corn flour. When we first had the new factorys I was so excited as it was a long time before we had anything new to do but now I am finding it frustrating as I cannot get enough fruit to make anything and same applys to ground grown stuff, also cheese now it its needed for the snacks and i cant get enough for the pizza and the sandwiches as it takes too long to produce unlike the butter which gives you loads but you dont need that in hardly anything. Please look into this as I am sure I am not the only one who feels like this. This isnt a moan for anything else quite happy with what you have given us just if you could tweek it a bit lol. Thank you for everything.

I agree. More fruit per tree so we don't need so many and that could even apply to ground plots too perhaps 5 items per plot more than one seed goes down on each plot so why do we only have 1 potatoe or one carrot we wouldn't need so much land and we could grow more. I cant use all my facilities either because i cant grow all the items because there isnt enough space and we need so many different ones. Please as said above can you please change it. I didnt have any olive trees but now have to have them for the oil but they are so big and take up so much room and look they look horrible compared to the other trees.

I have around 235 apple trees and that seems like a HUGE number but when you start processing things in the factories, they disappear really fast! I was surprised to learn each tree only gave off ONE apple!!

I use one of my farms to grow trees - I have every kind you can buy and am working on the ones as gifts. I make double use of my farm space though. I have a lot of crops growing under the trees. If you look at my third farm and have trees turned on, that's all you'll see are hundreds of trees. Turn trees off and you will see nothing but planted fields and no sign of the trees. They are not planted "between" rows, they are right on top of them. I've just started doing this on my main site too because it takes so darn much fruit for everything with one piece per tree!!

I don't want to give up any of my houses and other goodies so this is one half way solution.

I have pretty much the same problem - I can't seem to grow enough fruit fast enough to use all of the facilities. I have my trees planted on top of my crops to give me more growing room but even that doesn't help. I would like to see the trees produce a wee bit more - maybe 2 apples but those we pay a high price for could have may be 3 fruits. The cranberry trees are quiet expensive and I had hoped they would yield more than one berry. I love all the new toys but trying to get enough supplies to support them just doesn't work for me.

Another option might be to lessen the growing time for the fruit trees. That would actually be better than adding more fruit per tree. 5 days for one mango, one cherry, and one coconut seems like a very long growth period especially since you can only get them as gifts. I only get a few gifts per day so it sort of takes the fun out of the facilities that use these.

Oh yeah, that is true, I can make only a few icereme from my Mango trees and I have half a big farm surrounded with Mango trees, but can make very little ice creme with it. It takes way too much fruit for the items in the builidings.
