Farmville Fuel System Updates?
Could this be a hint of the updated Farmville Fuel System?
Some Farmville Freak users are reporting that they have been given the opportunity to purchase fuel at a newly discounted price!
Who has received this prompt?

Although there isn’t anything special about it. It gives you the same price.

HI
I have not had this promt but it would be nice to be able to buy fuel for FV coins instead of FV cash. I think more ppl would farm as well as it will be much quicker to do their farming on a daily basis

I think yesterday i had it but without a pop-up because i had 100 refils for 33 FV and now it’s 50 for 65 FV

If it’s just fuel prices then it’s not much of an update. Can’t they implement something interesting. Lower price just involve changing one value and sending it as an update. Then again, it is a free game so what can you expect.

I for one would be happy with a week or two of No Updates, just enhancements to the existing game to fix instability issues, etc. FV seems so unstable when compared to… uh-hem… Other Farming games on Facebook.

It’s still stupid. When is Zyna going to learn that they FV cash should only be used for specialty items. If you buy the tractor, harvester, etc. for coins, you should be able to fuel them with coins as well. I’m not going to spend real $$ on fake fuel for a game.

Has anyone noticed that you get fuel back faster now after you run out ?

my wife got this prompt the other day, but she did not buy fuel. it was probably about 3 days ago

They should do something with the fuel to expand the capacity of your tank. Presently the fuel bar only covers a small portion of space above neighbors picture area. They should have it so that if you do spend FV cash it extends the fuel bar so that everytime you upgrade you are also adding to the overall tank which will then refill at that new level. On a 22×22 farm right now you can only harvest just under half your farm with the given fuel; and you can’t do any plowing or planting as the fuel is gone. Something needs to be done. Clicking over 400 spaces to harvest, 400 to plow, and 400 moreto plant each time is a little excessive.

I completely agree with Renuka. If Zynga would make it FV Coins, then the vehicles would actually become useful. At this point, I have a 22*22 farm and my tractor only plows about 1/4 of my farm. I wouldn’t even bother getting seeders or harvesters. I just don’t feel like spending my hard earned FV Cash on fuel. Also, I would prefer if we got more than 1$ in FV Cash when we level up. Starting at about 20, it becomes very laborious to gain enough XP to level up. But this is my proposal: In order to give incentive to get people to buy vehicles, put them on sale for a weekend. Then change the fuel system so that in order to get more fuel, you simply pay 30 Coins in order to plow 1 plot of land instead of 15. But they should leave it at 15 Coins if you have no vehicle.But that’s just my $.02

i have noticed you get the fuel back faster dude!

Farmville should introduce hybrid vehicles, partially powered up using windmills.
Posted on November 24th, 2009 at 9:52 am
of course I dont get this and I would probably actually buy it since I have 16 fc lying around *eye roll*
I’m waiting on them to either expand the fuel tank or separate them though, I feel like this must eventually be coming if they keep letting us expand…though after I run out of my tanks I guess I’ll be selling off my vehicles…again -_-

For free you should be able to plough OR sow OR harvest your farm, regardless of size without buying fuel. For those that want to plough AND sow AND harvest, they should be able to pay for up to two additional tanks with FV$ as one-off costs. The tanks would empty and re-fill as normal.

@Dan
i know it is quite a long haul to click, plant and harvest but then again i think thats what makes the game! cause basically, farmville want you to spend as much time on it as possible, so the less fuel they give you the more manually you will have to do it, therefore spending more time on there.

Why is anyone still clicking their farms now? Gridclicker is available for free…
Posted on November 24th, 2009 at 10:44 am
I saved quite some time by doing a primitive autoclicker in python. Maybe clicking is what the game is about, but I prefer thinking to clicking.

The harvester, tractor, and seeder should have separate fuel tanks to begin with! I hate that we buy all 3 and get one fuel allotment.

I found a fuel refill in an egg!
Posted on November 24th, 2009 at 12:05 pm
I wish they would change it so that if you go into the market and pick a seed and click on a fallow (unplowed) space, it would plow and plant that space with one click. It makes enough sense to me!

zynga should put a solar panel tractor, that has free gass. And of course the cost of the tractor is going to be higher, but is better than be cliking fo 1000 times
Posted on November 24th, 2009 at 2:36 pm
yeah, I just got a fuel refill in a brown egg
Posted on November 24th, 2009 at 6:41 pm
hey just a bit of information
that message simply means you get discounted fuel rates.
bigger discounts, and i think you can buy 75 refills for 33 fvcash or something like that.
it’s been around for a while but i dont really know anyone that has taken advantage of it because paying for gas is pretty stupid.

I am looking forward to this update, but I just had the greatest idea ever. They have a dairy farm and a chicken coup. But what they need is a HORSE STABLE! It would be awesome.
Posted on November 24th, 2009 at 8:31 pm
And they need a pig pen.
Posted on November 24th, 2009 at 10:23 pm
Who the heck pays for gas?
I rotate my crops for harvesting a day apart in 4 segments. I can still use the equipment around 70% of the time with minimal clicking.

I got an invitation to buy the fuel at a discount. When I tried to do it, I got an out of sync message and the fuel disappeared and I got my farm dollars back. Tried twice more. Never could get the fuel. Now the special offer is gone. Not much fun in the game today.
