New Release -- October 21st, 2014
 
See Known Issues, More Information and Post Release Updates at the end of this post. Last updates released on November 7th, 11:10AM EST.

Hi There,

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

1. 12 New Halloween items (released 3 weeks ago)

2. 5 New Animals on the Gifts page: Alligator, Wild Boar, Flamingo, Skunk and Ram. Some of the animals on the Gifts page were moved to the Store.

3. Farm 24: See prices below:

12x12 - 5000000000 coins or 50 FarmCash (New Farm)
14x14 - 5500000000 coins or 20 FarmCash
16x16 - 6000000000 coins or 20 FarmCash
18x18 - 6500000000 coins or 20 FarmCash
20x20 - 7000000000 coins or 20 FarmCash
22x22 - 7500000000 coins or 25 FarmCash
24x24 - 8000000000 coins or 25 FarmCash
26x26 - 8500000000 coins or 25 FarmCash
28x28 - 9000000000 coins or 25 FarmCash
30x30 - 9500000000 coins or 25 FarmCash
32x32 - 10000000000 coins or 30 FarmCash
34x34 - 10500000000 coins or 30 FarmCash
36x36 - 11000000000 coins or 30 FarmCash
38x38 - 11500000000 coins or 30 FarmCash

4. Cooperative Quests Updates (some were launched 1-2 weeks ago):

- Fixed several bugs on Buy and Sell transactions
- Replaced "This transaction could not be completed" message by a more accurate message "Products no longer needed". This is usually a valid message, ex: if you try to sell a product to user X but already another user sold it to user X moments ago, or when you try to buy a product from someone but already another user sold it to you moments ago.
- Auto fixing of some Regular and Cooperative Quests that were locked without any way to make progress
- Funeral facility product quests are hidden from you when browsing other Cooperative Quests if you have that option enabled in your preferences
- The "Load Fishing Tackle Shop with Bait" quest is now permanently removed as baits never go to storage and therefore no one can sell it to you
- Blue dots are not shown on neighbours with only expired quests or only expired and completed quests
- Changed quest unlock levels from levels 20 / 50 / 100 / 150 / 200 to levels 20 / 40 / 60 / 80 / 100, so now users at level 100 can have 5 concurrent quests
- Neighbour avatars name now shows when you mouse over their picture
- When browsing Cooperative Quests if there is a user that just completed all its quests the flow will not be interrupted, you will be allowed to continue to the next user
- When ordering the neighbour bar by Cooperative Quests the current user is always shown to the left of the leftmost neighbour with a blue dot, this way neighbours with blue dots are visible in the screen right away

5. Animal Buildings capacity increased: Regular buildings now hold up to 200 animals instead of 180. Super Animal Buildings now hold up to 400 animals instead of 360.

6. Reach product Belts and Dans for the next 10 facilities

7. General Improvements and bug fixes:

- Farm zoom level is more stable, when you go to other non-farm locations like Market or Inn you can change zoom level but when you go back to your farm your original zoom level is restored.
- While preparing to send a Hire Request to others, ex: selecting checkboxes or target farms, all Hire Requests sent from others to you will be ignored, this will avoid some unintentional clicks on those incoming requests.
- Fixed bug that was not allowing users to buy 25 FarmCash for 4.99.
- Fixed bug where all Animal Buildings not ready to be harvested were showing this message "No animals to collect manure from at this time".
- When visiting others their info on the bottom left is a bit more compacted to reclaim some of the space taken by the Cooperative Quest icon.

Known Issues

- When sending gifts, the 'All Friends', 'Farm Town Players' and 'Friends to Invite' dropdown options are automatically provided by facebook and they have a bug now which is showing only the first 50 users, we are trying to find a workaround this.

Farm 24
 
Thank you for Farm 24
Have been waiting for it :D
One tiny issue though - I can't navigate there from Farm Map Top Left - have to click show names
Looking forward to the Jewlery factories too :D

Lara Oct 21 2014 03:43 AM

Farm 24 won't load for me. I bought it I went there I left there and now I can go to every farm but 24. Think there is a glitch

Note: Just read above post and can access from show names but not the Farm Map.

Auron1 Oct 21 2014 03:46 AM

Thanks so much for creating such a great game! Your entire team seems to share an attitude of "making everything better." :)

crafty chris Oct 21 2014 03:48 AM

I'm the same, seems to be a glitch of some sort. I'm able to load in farm 24 by getting the link to it from within the Farm Selector Manager then when I'm on farm 24 I can go to any of the other farms but cannot get back to farm 24 from the other farms, it just sits there doing nothing!

I'm sure the devs are already on to it :D

PS can get there now by clicking on 'Show Names'.

al_bundy Oct 21 2014 04:34 AM

ponytail Oct 21 2014 05:11 AM

mac16129 Oct 21 2014 05:48 AM

Thank you! It amazes me the thought and planning that goes into this games.....which is by far the finest game on FB. What wonderful minds the developers have!

JW2009 Oct 21 2014 05:50 AM

The DEV are currently working on the farm 24 issue

theperfectnina Oct 21 2014 05:53 AM

I was saving my coins, got to just over 60 Billion but only made it to buy and expand farm 24 to 26x26 so WOW am broke again

LOVE the new animals, please let's not use the alligator skin to make handbags or shoes, we don't skin the rabbits lol

looking forward to the coin facilities

Keep up the good work

WendyP57 Oct 21 2014 05:54 AM

appreciate the new release...but... I have tried twice to buy farmcash ($19.99) it appears to be working but when I get back to the farm, no cash :(

oh dear.. refreshed 3 times and I have actually purchased almost $40 worth of farm cash, guess I should have refreshed a few more times before I paid for the second lot

Hi Dave!

The developers are working to fix this issue.

Raul has posted some instructions to get your farm 24:)

You can't navigate to Farm 24 using the rectangles in the farm selector, for now just click on the Show Names button and then click on the Farm 24.

kuettel51 Oct 21 2014 06:51 AM

Since the update my tools are all microscopic in size...what gives

Really appreciate all the work the developers put in on this game...thanks

StoneFace Oct 21 2014 07:08 AM

Thanks for farm #24

Seems like yesterday when we only had one farm with a max size of 24x24.

We did not get the expansions for farms 16-20 (probably next time), and that might be a good thing..... it is already an expensive day.....:cool:

So now I have 4 farms, 38x38, 9 layered, edge to edge..... that yields almost a quarter million crop in one planting. hehehehehe.

:eek:

I see this part of the new release, Quote:- " The "Load Fishing Tackle Shop with Bait" quest is now permanently removed as baits never go to storage and therefore no one can sell it to you " This is not correct, when collecting Bait Bonus's they are put into your storage and as long as you don't sell those Baits obtained from Bonus's that are in your storage via the Fishing Tackle Shop, you can sell it to friends/neighbours who need it in their Coop Quests.

macwinter Oct 21 2014 07:15 AM

Awesome update thank you

Hi Ashlar Lady!

You are correct:)

But we have received many complains about the cooperative quests using baits, so the developers decided to remove those quests. Some farmers dont get the bait bonuses or they use baits in storage for their Fishing Tackle shop, so if they get one of these quests, they cant complete them.:)

Rugged Barbie Oct 21 2014 08:24 AM

Today's update is really awesome.
I love the animals. How creative! Thank you.
It's very insightful to see how the Developers really want this to continue to be the very best game possible. They listen to and fix the issues we are having, are attentive to our glitch reports and very responsive to our requests.
And, then, they go even beyond our expectations with even more impressive upgrades.
And, before I realized there was an upgrade when I logged in this morning I was about to spend several billion coins on enlarging one of my existing farms. Glad I didn't, because we now have a new farm!
