Hammock? For coins?

Someone posted they got a notice for it and it was tied to a level change. That usually means coins!

Gem flowers have all been "rose" so far. Yes, hammock must be for coins if that report was accurate - that said, there was something before like that and it never appeared at all. What was that ? Maybe it was a hoaxer.

See what happens when you criticize TL for adding non-farm items to Farm Story? You get MORE non-farm items.

All kidding aside though, you must be right that this is a TS update, which will make those players very happy.

But you've asking for water items for a long time. They finally give you a whole box of water-related stuff and now you don't want it on your farm? Just see if they give you your koi pond now. I think they switched this box from TS to FS just for you. ;););)

On the Morning Glory - it costs 80 coins to plant, plus 10 coins to plow, and 36 hrs later I get 85 coins. So I lose 5 coins for each flower? I know this data is what is listed in the game, but is this really what the developers intended?

08-26-11, 08:58 PM
You know guys and fellow forum members... Im ***na be honest (as always). I have to say Im a bit dissappointed and under whelmed with this weeks new items.

The yak looks flat and weird, as if it has barbie doll movable legs or something. The morning glories...well, morning glories should have a trellis to climb. Everyone knows that.

The surprise chest....thats a whole other issue. A couple things are usable like the hammock and perhaps the tent.

But...
* Why oh Why did we get a pirate theme in the first place?
* A floating islands that you cant put anything on? If someone puts it in the top corner of their farm...you can only see the bottom of it no matter how much you zoom out or in.
* Tiny tents? great for gnomes but if your not into the gnome world, it doesnt go. I was hoping to create a camping in the woods by the cabin scene. maybe later getting a salmon on a spit over a fire....
* Why couldnt they just give us a pug without the outfit so that we can actually use it on our farm?
* Why give us ships if we dont have water tiles?
* Is that a tiny table?...again...for gnomes?
* Mermaid and dolphins and pirate ships? c'mon. This is Farm Story not Treasure Story.

Maybe they should give us a preview of all the items in the box that we can try for so that we can see whats in there and see if it works with our farm? Just an idea.

And...Im ***na say it....

I sure did get a heck of alot of duplicates in this chest. Spent a small fortune on gems and kinda felt a little ripped off to tell you the truth.

I was told they fixed the duplicate issue. However, if that was the case then how did I end up with so many duplicates: 6 hammocks, 4 tents, 4 dogs, 2 ships, 5 telescopes and 3 treasure chests and NOT get the grand prize? I saw a few of my neighbors farms...looks like they also spent a fortune. Not one I saw with a grand prize.

So, from now on guys...please dont say that TL is a business and needs to make money...blah blah blah. I spend at least $20 every week and I KNOW im not alone guys...this is a VIRTUAL, NON TANGIBLE WORLD. We dont even really own the things in this virtual world. How many of you pay $300+ for a single Guitar Hero or Splinter Cell game? or aby board game or even a membership on a gaming website?

I guess the bottom line is that I really wish they would have either added REAL farm items. It makes me wonder if the developers are even reading the threads/polls to get ideas?

Or I wish they made improvements instead. (congrats to Android users by the way...about time!) We need things like an Edit/Delete button for non responded to invites ( I think its been requested for 8 months now) or An Animation off option for those of us that are getting sick from the water dropplets or more male gnomes mixed in (maybe with different color outfits)... or water tiles....things that has been requested over and over and over.... oh yeah, and a goose for one determined individual.

I have a question for you.... If you could give all the items back from that you got from that new surprise chest, would you? What if TL did make a mistake and it WAS suppose to go to Treasure Story instead of Farm Story? What if TL wanted to take back all the items and give you back your gems and then insert a new surprise box in its place for you...would you be open to it?

However, if that was the case then how did I end up with so many duplicates: 6 hammocks, 4 tents, 4 dogs, 2 ships, 5 telescopes and 3 treasure chests and NOT get the grand prize? I saw a few of my neighbors farms...looks like they also spent a fortune. Not one I saw with a grand prize.

So, from now on guys...please dont say that TL is a business and needs to make money...blah blah blah. I spend at least $20 every week and I KNOW im not alone guys...this is a VIRTUAL, NON TANGIBLE WORLD. We dont even really own the things in this virtual world. How many of you pay $300+ for a single Guitar Hero or Splinter Cell game? or aby board game or even a membership on a gaming website?

I guess the bottom line is that I really wish they would have either added REAL farm items. It makes me wonder if the developers are even reading the threads/polls to get ideas?

Or I wish they made improvements instead. (congrats to Android users by the way...about time!) We need things like an Edit/Delete button for non responded to invites ( I think its been requested for 8 months now) or An Animation off option for those of us that are getting sick from the water dropplets or more male gnomes mixed in (maybe with different color outfits)... or water tiles....things that has been requested over and over and over.... oh yeah, and a goose for one determined individual.

I have a question for you.... If you could give all the items back from that you got from that new surprise chest, would you? What if TL did make a mistake and it WAS suppose to go to Treasure Story instead of Farm Story? What if TL wanted to take back all the items and give you back your gems and then insert a new surprise box in its place for you...would you be open to it?

I agree with you completely about the pirate items. When was the last time anyone saw any of this on a farm. Hammock, tents and the telescope are about all that can really fit. Oh, morning Glory is ok. Considering what people are asking for and what they got, I have to say TL has a deaf ear. At no time have I heard someone ask for pirate ships or floating trees. Dumb, really really dumb.

I know the items we have been seeing are strange. The problem is before the forum was up and running, TL did not get feedback from players. When designs get created, they are already set and in line to go into the game. (this could of been set months ago). I really do feel we will start seeing more of our suggestions start coming in once the original things come out.
That is why the suggestion threads and polls are really important .. What you all say today, should be the items coming down the line.
If anyone has noticed that the polls we have done recently are also sent over to facebook so they have two areas to look at.

There is a new hammock between two trees in the Pirate Chest. But, be prepared to spend a lot of gems there. I am so tired of getting duplicated items and never the best one. I wish Team Lava would let us pay a high price for the whole set rather than spoil the fun by giving us duplicates of the worst items. I am not buying anymore gems for chests after the last two when I overspent trying to get what I really wanted and ended up with things that are okay. I know I sound bitter, but I have 10 Daisy silos in inventory plus one on my farm. And, that is not the worst of my duplicate items for 24 gems. At least it's pretty. Some of the duplicates are so bad, I don't even place one out for viewing lol

I always feel ripped off when I spend 200 gems and don't get what I wanted. I wish I could trade you something for a ship. That's what I wanted :/ I would rather pay 200 gems and get the whole set of items than gamble on getting what I want. I don't gamble in real life and don't like it here. The hammock looks nice and peaceful, the tent is okay, but the floating island is way too big. Maybe they should shrink it some.

Android users need to download the update from Android Market. It has become a different program. For the first time, I really like it. Good job TL. Many new features, camera, speed farming, ability to send email or text from within the program and of course, animation of the water. I did not think I would like it with all I heard but once used to it, it helps. Pop-ups for downloads and gems every 5 minutes, should go away soon or you could get more gems than intended. Program downloading is poor and slow but that may be just my phone. I like this update for the androids. I could not get the speed farming to work right but my level may have something to do with it. Updated my wife's phone, at a lower level than mine and speed farming does not even show up. Details on the screen seem to show up much better. Clearer, sharper and more colorful.

Plowing and planting run quite a bit slower. Easy to outrun the server when doing either. Caused by the animation is my guess. As you plow or plant, the squares get colored so you don't miss one or forget where you are. Color goes away when server does that function. I can't remember what else is new but I am sure I have missed something. Amazon and others have older versions, go to Android Market. Amazon will catch up but not today.

I'm glad Android users would appear to be getting a better deal.

Re outrunning the server, what happens on a soft reset ? Does it all instantly catch up ?

I'll try it but I think it cancels previous action.

when I am clearing crops I hit the home button then the farm icon and it quickly resets and the field is clear. Love it. I also will do this when planting. it is like when a POP up hits your screen and finishes everything quickly. Faster than visiting a nbr then coming back,

I do the soft reset all the time so my farm catches up with me.

I'm on an iPad, I hit the home button 2x as if I'm switching apps, but them tab on the farm again as if I changed my mind about switching apps. Boom! Works like charm!

Hi, that's obviously TL's thinking - although not strictly a rose :)

Saw a yak tonight. Was my first. Anyone seen many ? Placed beside the tenacious ox, they're easy to miss though.
