@earl gray my suggestion is getting away from "Industrial Nation" and back to farming. And yes I have spent that amount of money I have one paypal account strictly for Farmtown and I play no other games. I am disabled unable to get out in the 'real' world much so I play farmtown at least 14 out of 24 hrs each day. The more that the devs come out with the further way from the original game. I want to plant harvest and sell crops I don't want to earn belts or dans or whatever. I am a college graduate with a masters in sociology so I figure I am somewhat intelligent but for the life of me cannot figure out what some of this has to do with farming as in "FARMTOWN". Just taking this open forum at its word as to make suggestions and or views of the game. Please devs get us back to the game.

i have to say that i love the direction this game is taking. we have a variety of things we can do. one day i can work all my neighbor's facilities. another day i can go to the market and work for anyone who will hire me. i can redecorate a farm (made so much easier by the way we now can take multiple items out of storage). i can empty my facilities and get excited over all the millions of coins i have made so i can buy all the great decorations or new buildings. i love the way that we can create a little city on our farms instead of just having farm decorations. i love that we can make more money by putting some of our products into service facilities. i could go on and on about all the things i love about this game. it is the only game i play and yes i have invested real money to get the tools and farm cash facilities that make my playtime more enjoyable. i like the extra crops that i gather from the belt posts and my friends love the ones they get from my posts. i hope the farm town team keeps adding things to the game that give me even more variety of activities. sorry you do not feel the same.

I wholeheartedly agree Original Tee ... just as in "real life," when I start to get bored with a particular function of the game, I make a change or simply take a break.

Sometimes I set goals for myself (like having 15 days of crops for all facilities before I can load the facilities). Other times, I just have all fields plowed and only empty barns and harvest trees. Also there's days when I just don't want to do any of it. I keep a small, easy spreadsheet that shows me what fields are planted with what and when they'll be ready to harvest. I caretake my husband's place too most of the time, so there's 18 fields to track.

I am looking forward to more farms and especially some more seeds.

Devs, it's been a long time since we've seen new seeds and also I'd like to see more uses for some of the crops we already have (rhubarb pie, etc.)

You say you want it to go back to farming, but I thought that the facilities were designed to keep the 'farming' even more interesting. We no longer just plow, sow and harvest just to sell at the market, we are growing our crops for a purpose now, which I think is fabulous. So I think the incentive to 'farm' is actually greater than it ever was.

You also have to read a lot of posts to realise that what you dislike about the game, is keeping so many people happy. You don't have to buy facilities, you don't even have to participate in the new belt challenge, everything else you loved about the game is still there

You also said you are taking the forum at it's word and therefore are making a suggestion, but you haven't included your ideas. If you post in suggestions, the devs DO take all ideas into consideration.
