New Release -- January 17th, 2015
 
See Known Issues, More Information and Post Release Updates at the end of this post. Last updates released on February 6th, 4:20PM EST.

Hi There,

We just released a new version of the game with the following features and bug fixes:

1. Farm 25: See prices below:

12x12 - 6000000000 coins or 50 FarmCash (New Farm)
14x14 - 6500000000 coins or 20 FarmCash
16x16 - 7000000000 coins or 20 FarmCash
18x18 - 7500000000 coins or 20 FarmCash
20x20 - 8000000000 coins or 20 FarmCash
22x22 - 8500000000 coins or 25 FarmCash

2. Ingredient Planner Improvements: When the Facility Manager is showing both Regular and Service facilities and you open the Ingredient Planner, it will have 2 additional filters 'All regular facilities' and 'All service facilities'.

3. New Release Notification: Every time there is a new release you will see a yellow banner on the top with 2 buttons, one will take players to the forums to get more info on the new release, this should encourage more players to visit the forums. Once you click on any of the buttons the notification will disappear and will not appear again until the next release.

4. Top Left Quest Icon Improvements: This icon will now show information about both Regular and Cooperative quests. If there is relevant info on both type of quests the icon will have 2 colors and will show the combined info when you mouse over it.

5. Flower Harvester 16 x 12: If you already own the Flower Harvester 12 x 12 then you can buy this new Flower Harvester to harvest up to 192 flowers at once.

6. FarmCash Rewards for Cooperative Quests: As with the Regular Quests, rewards are based on how many quest you are able to complete in 7 days, here are the rules:

4 Quests in 7 days -> 1 FarmCash
13 Quests in 7 days -> 2 FarmCash

Also, the price you pay in coins when buying a product from a stranger that you need in your Coop Quests has been increased 20 times.

7. Green Gifting Machine: All Gift Packers were renamed to Gifting Machines. The Green Gifting Machine will duplicate the gifts you receive from the Send Gifts page. When friends use the Send Gifts page to send you a gift, you will receive 2 instead of 1 in your Gift Box. For instance, if a friend send you 20 x Chicken, you will get 2 gifts of 20 x Chicken each, for a total of 40 x Chicken.

This only apply to non-decoration gifts, this means the Fuel gift will be duplicated as well, and animals and trees that do not produce anything (decorations) will not be duplicated.

This tool only benefits you, not your friends.

8. Other Improvements (some launched a while ago):

- 'Store All' Improvements, removed more issues and XLINK errors from Store All operation
- Bug Fix: Moving Fences in bulk to the Item Storage using the Tower Crane forced the game to reload
- Fixed a semantic error where the Clover crop was used instead of Cloves in 4 products. You can harvest Cloves from the Clove Tree released a month ago (Trees category in the Store, level 66).
- Smokehouse can now produce 4 times more Cured Herrings in the same period, this should help with productions at the German Restaurant

9. Brazilian Restaurant (FC): Produces Brazilian Food.

Cheese Buns
Coxinha
Caruru
Feijoada
Moqueca
Brazilian Churrasco
Tapioca Pudding
Acai na Tigela

New Products in other facilities: Tapioca Starch and Cassava Flour in the Watermill. Palm Oil in the Oil Factory.

The Yuca crop was renamed to Cassava which is a more universal name.
The Palm Tree now produce Palm Fruits which are used to produce Palm Oil.


10. Dessert Factory (FC): Produces Desserts.

Lemon Lime Gelatin
Fruit Gelatin
Two Fruit Gelatin
Pistachio Pudding
Tiramisu
Flan
Four Berry Parfait
Panna Cotta Shot

11. Martial Arts Supplies Factory (Coins): Produces Martial Arts Supplies.

Wooden Dummy
Yin Yang Sign
Wall Sandbag
Nunchaku
Bamboo Sword
Dart Rope
Martial Arts Belts
Kick Target

12. Martial Arts School (Coins): Provides Martial Arts Training Classes and can be stocked with products from the Martial Arts Supplies Factory.

Enjoy!

--Raul

Hi Jacqufile,
Make sure your language is set to english before you go to the market and see if there are more people there then.

WendyP57 Jan 17 2015 01:09 AM

I sometimes only see a couple of people, I usually go over to the trade market, then back to the hiring market , sometimes a couple of times, then the people all appear again

Annie of Green Gables Jan 17 2015 03:35 AM

Thanks Taz when do you expect the updates to be published?

Thanks Annie...

TribalCat Jan 17 2015 03:59 AM

Thanks for the updates, especially the white flower harvester :)

boduke66 Jan 17 2015 04:56 AM

might i suggest one slight change to the cooperative quest button,change the claim cash color to black like the regular quests is,right now its very confusing and makes a person think they can claim their farm cash by having it dark blue like the other is.

billypanther Jan 17 2015 05:03 AM

thank you - really like the idea with the banner telling about the new announcements

L.A.Bob Jan 17 2015 05:18 AM

Thanks for the update Developers. You keep this game fresh and exciting.

hicall80 Jan 17 2015 05:23 AM

lost money
 
I appreciate all the improvements and additions in the new release, they are a wonderful help. I'm wondering if now that it's released you can return to me the money I lost when my Chinese Restaurant and my Knitting and Knotting Mill disappeared in the middle of December? I really need that money back.

StoneFace Jan 17 2015 05:34 AM

Thanks Raul et al....

This is probably a record, or close to it, for shortest time lapse between closing one release thread and the new release.

I like the banner ..... hopefully more players will experience the forum.

and.... what can I say... Farm #25.... woo hoo..... land baron.

crafty chris Jan 17 2015 05:37 AM

yesssss ... thank you so so much had to run here when i saw the update button on the top (thought something was wrong :eek: ) but that is a great idea :)

thanks for the increase of cured herring ... that is going to help so much :)

thanks for farm 25 (when is 26 due?) lol

havent looked at anything else yet but hope the quests havent changed too much or poor taz will have to be patient and explain things again lol

again thank you so much :)

StoneFace Jan 17 2015 05:41 AM

Is there a reason why #25 is only showing expansions up to 22x22 ???

:confused:

rj22857 Jan 17 2015 05:44 AM

Thanks Raul!!

onecooldude Jan 17 2015 06:00 AM

under farm selector farm 25 is not showing up so i can move it ?????

MBon Jan 17 2015 06:20 AM

:)awesome changes. thanks again :)

smilie224 Jan 17 2015 06:55 AM

You guys are Fantastic!
 
I have been playing since the very beginning and quite loyal :D I just wanted to point out that you guys are so great... month after month, every month, you always add to the game. You make it fun and new on a regular basis. I can't imagine the time it takes (and manpower), but you do a fantastic job. Thank you for making such a fun and violent-free (LOL) game!

ckerider Jan 17 2015 07:06 AM

Thanks for the new release, however my game is now acting crazy. For one thing I cannot show I am active anymore... it always reverts back to red (offline) and it won't change. Also when I try to log on to ft it gives me a message saying "a network change was detected". Huh???? And it seems to be very much slower now too. Anyone else having these problems. btw... it does eventually get going but the offline won't change for me.

Lara Jan 17 2015 07:07 AM

Thanks for the upgrade. Farm 25 doesn't seem to be showing in the Farm Selector Manager yet

rjohn726 Jan 17 2015 07:23 AM

Thanks for the Cloves in the tea

Also farm 25

mseels2003 Jan 17 2015 07:24 AM

I understand the Upgrades, but with each upgrade that is done, it seems the PRICES are quickly getting out of hand! Im a stay at home mom, and enjoy this game a lot, this is my time of peace and quiet. It's like everyone has the means to be able to purchase what we want/need. The land upgrades are very costly FC/Coin wise! We people who have no funds to keep up are drowning and struggling! Give us a break!

Just Terri Jan 17 2015 07:25 AM

thanks for the updates, however my farms won't load, neither will my neighbors. I have cleared meme cache and flash player to no avail

This happens to all the time, espically after a new release. I just reload the market 2 or 3 times or more and more show up.

Docperk Jan 17 2015 07:30 AM

Thanks for the new farm and updates.

servocrow Jan 17 2015 07:31 AM

Thanks! Looking forward to playing....and I might even get to BUY some things this time around!!
