The one thing about Farm Town is the levels and the Experience spread. I have worked very hard at this game since the days when there was only one farm, no tools and you could only plant, harvest and sell your crop(s).

Now having millions of XP it has become difficult to keep up the enthusiasm for the game. While new players are able to continue to level up and earn FC for their increasing levels, those of us who have exceeded the threshold sit and wait for about 6 weeks to get a 25 level increase. Meanwhile, the game rushes forward and 4 new facilities that require FC are released.

We used to be able to do items like sign up for Netflix or shop for Auto Insurance or watch a video or sign up for a game to earn extra cash. Now, even though I have put good money into this game, yes I broke my rules about paying for online gaming and spent REAL money because I enjoyed the game that much, I don't even get enough farm cash in the level increases to purchase ONE facility. That means that while I can accumulate enough Farm Cash in 3 months to purchase 2 facilities, there are at least 6 new Farm Cash facilities that are released putting me further and further behind in keeping up with the progress of the game.

To someone who has been a loyal player and who has put real money into the game to support it, this is disheartening and frustrating. I have noticed that I have to force myself to do some of the tasks that I normally would have been doing on a daily basis.

I still play and will continue to play, but I want the devs to know that their holding back on the Level increases for the few of us who have over 20 million XP, is sending some of the older more entrenched players elsewhere where experience is rewarded frequently. A substantial jump in Levels is warranted and would help the game in the short term and would increase the player retention in the long run. The devs of Slashkey need to take a long view of the situation.

Farm Town is still and in my opinion always will be the best Sim type game on Facebook.

I understand that times are tough and money is short .... but I will spend $20 for Farmcash 'occasionally' and between that and getting the new levels as we've been getting them .. I have been able to afford all the FC tools that I felt I needed to help me in my enjoyment of the game ..... just $10 goes a long way ...

I am on disability which is seriously FIXED income .... but that little bit of money goes a long way for MY enjoyment ... I don't go to the movies and this game is my daily entertainment ...

If you think you can't afford it > go 1 week drinking water only (refill the same bottles!) .. call it a body cleanse if you will ... if you drink soft drinks or coffee at all you saved $10 by drinking water for a week so buy yourself some FC as a reward for a sugar/caffine drink free week ..

I quit buying the FC factories in favor of getting the 1st step FC tools with what Farmcash I had ... since I decided I had already bought enough of the FC facilities ... so now there are quite a few that I don't have .. if there comes a quest my way where a factory I don't have is needed then I have a decision to make .. to buy or not to buy ... my choice

I have a question for all the old time players How long did it take you to advance 25 levels and earn 25 farm cash in the good old days and as we advanced it took longer cuz you needed more xp point for each level .NOW we can do it in one jump in just 6-7 weeks I think the developers are more than generous in giving us more levels in one jump. They really do not have to do this. I know a lot of the other games do not.

I want to thank the developers for all they do for us, And I know they will NEVER satisfy all of the players no matter what they do . I am beginning to think it is a very thankless and thankful job all the time. Not sure if that makes sense or not. But that is just my 2 cents for what it is worth.

There was no FC when I first started but I did get to level 34...then the highest...in a month. Today I could do that in a few days.

When I mouse over my crops, its just telling me when it will be ready for harvest. I seem to have lost the F or the W. Is this just a glitch? Rather annoying lol
