FarmVille Freak Techie: Cupid’s Castle Enormous Glitch

Wed ,19/01/2011

FarmVille Cupid's Castle Completed

Last night brought the release of the Valentine’s Day Cupid’s Castle. A few FarmVille Freaks have already finished constructing theirs! We have gotten reports from from FarmVille Freaks that once they finish building their Cupid’s Castle, it becomes enormous!

Hi FarmGoddess,

I want to share with you a picture of my farm where the Cupid’s Castle appears so huge, it’s probably a glitch but I thought I should share it with all of you.

Regards,
FarmVille Freak Jad

Do you think this is a glitch, or is the Castle really that big?

Have you finished building your Cupid’s Castle yet?

FarmVille Addresses Problems with Snow Stallion

FarmVille Snow Stallion

Many FarmVille Freaks have reported problems with the Winter Holiday collection redeemable Snow Stallion.

Farmers are having issues with placing the Snow Stallion in the Horse Stable, (they are not able to put the stallion inside) which then prevents it from breeding.

Zynga is aware of the issue and working on a fix. Stay tuned…

From FarmVille Community Manager, Stumpgrinder:

User can no longer put Snow Stallion into Stable:

Description:

Players are no longer able to put the Snow Stallion into the Stable, even though it is not full. This has been reported after Tuesday’s (12/14/2010) update.

Status:

This issue is currently under investigation.

FarmVille Freak Nadine’s New Market Style

Fri ,19/11/2010

Is the FarmVille Market about to get a brand new makeover?! FarmVille Freak Nadine writes to us about the new look her Market seems to have acquired.

Heya!

Today, I opened the market on my farm and I saw that it had a new look. I guess its something that maybe will change soon, so I sent you a pic of how it looks like. Maybe its something new for you too. *thumbs up for your page*

Have a great weekend!

FarmVille Facebook News Feed Improvements!

Fri ,29/10/2010

FarmVille FaceBook Feed Change

The way that FarmVille’s Facebook news feed shares have changed!

They have taken out the annoying confirmation or “Do you want this?”step that required an extra click to claim the item.

The first click on the feed can claim your prize- if you are fast enough :) Upon claiming the prize, you will then have the ability to send a Thank you gift to your neighbor who posted the share.

All FarmVille feed shares will work this way.

Do you like this news feed change? I’d say it is definitely an improvement, Thanks Z!

FarmVille on Facebook Error Causing Access Problems

Wed ,27/10/2010

No, you are not the only one! An error on Facebook is causing many (if not all) farmers to be locked out of their farms. Reportedly all Zynga games are also experiencing access issues through Facebook.

After attempting to play FarmVille, you may receive this error seen below.

FarmVille FaceBook Sorry, Somthing Went Wrong

In the meantime if you cannot access your farm using Facebook, try farming from FarmVille.com as Facebook works on a fix.

FarmVille Freak Back Up!

Tue ,26/10/2010

Hello FarmVille Freaks!

Apologies for this weekend’s downtime. We were cleaning out some cobwebs and doing a little maintenance by upgrading current servers.

As our site continues to grow it’s necessary to make technical upgrades.

Thank you for your patience during this time and for your continued readership and support!

FaceBook is Down (again): Is FarmVille Crashing FaceBook?

Tue ,05/10/2010

FarmVille Freak Dr. Green Thumb's FaceBook Crashing on FireFox

UPDATE: FaceBook.com was down for about 25-30 minutes and is now back up!

FaceBook seems to be down at the moment!

Farmers are freaking out as FarmVille is right in the middle of updates and everyone wants to check out
the new releases such as the new constructible Haunted House.

There is no need to worry about your farms or crops too much as Zynga usually enables Unwither and Puppy feeding during events like this.

You may have noticed that FarmVilleFreak.com also experienced some crashing issues tonight due to high traffic, which makes us feel a little better since even mega giants like FaceBook.com are occasionally down.

Is FarmVille crashing FaceBook? What do you say techies?

FarmVille Freak Coco's FaceBook Crashing on Chrome

FaceBook Explains and Apologizes for Today’s Outage

Fri ,24/09/2010

FarmVille Freak "Dislikes" today's FaceBook Outage. Where is the "Dislike Button" anyways?!??!

Earlier today, FaceBook went down and everyone freaked out!

FarmVille Freaks were worried about their farms, crops, and beloved Puppies going hungry. Mobsters were on edge from being forced to take a break from whacking people and all the other millions of people who have some sort of alternative internet career in the realms of social gaming no less worried about something. Oh and then there are those other people, who still use FaceBook for purposes other than gaming, well they were worried too.

Even though the outage was only for 2.5 hours, panic was widespread. The world reacted and news of the outage made both national and international headlines. According to FaceBook this is the worst outage that they have experienced in four years. So what did happen? If you want to read all the nerdy technical details about today’s outage, click hereIf not, just be happy knowing that it works now and that even though FaceBook was down, Zynga was still looking out for all its addicts farmers. Unwither was turned on and Puppy starving was disabled.

Now, if only FaceBook could fix our disabled FarmVille Freak FaceBook Fan Page. That’s probably asking for too much.

So what would we do without FaceBook? What happens if it really did “break”?

FaceBook Changes FarmVille Gifting and Requests

Wed ,22/09/2010

FarmVille Gifting Changes

FaceBook has changed the way we accept and send gifts and other requests in FarmVille. These changes are for all games, not just FarmVille or other Zynga games.

Here are some FAQ and answers provided by Zynga,

Changes to Gifting/Requests FAQ

“Q: I don’t see my game requests on the right hand side of the Facebook home page. Where are they?

A: Game requests are no longer on the right hand side of the Facebook home page. Here’s how you can find your gift and other game requests:

1. On the left hand side of the Facebook home page, click on your game bookmark. If you don’t see your game, click ‘more’. This will take you to your game where you can find your gift and other requests.

2. Once you arrive at the game, click the Zynga Message Center icon in the top right corner of the game screen to see all of your requests.

Q: I am in my game and I don’t see the icon for the Zynga Message Center. What do I do?

A: Not all games have the Zynga Message Center. If you don’t see the icon in the top right corner of the game, click on ‘Game Requests’ on the left side of the Facebook home page to see all of the requests for games you play.

Q: Can I access my gifts and other game requests by visiting http://www.facebook.com/reqs.php

A: Yes. You can still find all of your gift and other game requests in this location.

Q: I see something called ‘Game Requests’ on the left hand side of the Facebook home page. Can I accept my gift and other game requests by clicking on the link.

A: Yes, you can click on this link to see requests from all of the games you play.”
