"I can't stop watching my crops!" – FarmVille Freak

As its just about 24 hours since we got our FarmVille Puppies, more details are coming out. Here is what your need to know about feeding your cute little Puppy:

• Kibble is available for 5 $FV or through gifting from neighbors (free)
• There is a feeding countdown, after feeding it will say “Hungry in 23:45″ when that count down is done it will say “Feed in 23:45″.  So your Puppy will not run away if it goes just under two days without food.
• If you do not feed your Puppy it will run away (only coin Puppy). If you don’t take proper care of your Puppy, you will see an icon when entering your farm and receive a pop-up that asks you to pay a fine of 3$FV now 2 $FV and rescue your Pup from the pound

As our Puppies develop and grow, we are sure to see new features and options. How very exciting!

Has your Puppy runaway? If so, what was your experience?

Tonight, Channel Zero (A moderator of the Official Zynga Forums), posted this about a specific issue surrounding fertilizing neighbors farms. Channel Zero suggests harvesting your Horse Stable before attempting to visit neighbors might do the trick!

Thank you for all your information regarding this issue thus far. As a few players have already pointed out, there is an issue with the Wandering Stallion that causes loading issues when attempting to visit your neighbors’ farms. This should only occur with the standard Wandering Stallion, and not the White Wandering Stallion, or LE Stallion.

As a workaround, please be sure to collect from your Horse Stables before visiting your neighbors if you have a Wandering Stallion in place. Once your Horse Stable no longer has a Wandering Stallion inside, you should be able to visit your neighbors without trouble.

Please note: This workaround only applies to players who can not load or visit their neighbors’ farms. If you are simply loading very slowly when visiting your neighbors’ farms, this may not help you.

Thank you once again for all your information and help with this issue, and we will update you once again when a permanent fix has been found. For now, this information has been added to our Known Issues section under the heading Visiting Neighbors.

Do you ‘Fert and Feed’ your neighbors daily? Did this workaround solve any issues for you?

In a previous post, found here , you got 1 free Farm Cash (1FV$) from a link that was given to us by FarmVille Freak Vishal, FVFreak Robbie, FVFreak Maggie and FVFreak Lexingtim. Today, many FarmVille players got an email from Zynga saying,

“Howdy Farmer,

Thanks for playing FarmVille! For a very limited time, we’re giving you one bonus Farm Cash
Click here to claim your Farm Cash!

Happy Harvesting,
Your friends at FarmVille”

Do you think the Zynga gods will give free FV$ on a monthly basis?

In what was meant to be a huge update yesterday, Zynga released a new function for farmers, Co-op farming. This new feature allows farmers to work together to obtain a possible Gold, Silver or Bronze medal by working together to complete a challenge. If a Gold Medal is obtained, each farmer in the co-op receives a special prize (These prizes are listed here, http://farmvillefreak.com/farmville-uncategorized/farmville-co-op-farming-jobs-rewards)

Unfortunately there have been many issues accessing Co-op farming in game or joining a Co-op via the Facebook home feed. Recently  Lexilicious (FarmVille Community Manager) posted this on the Official FarmVille Forums:

Hey Farmers,

We’re currently experiencing some technical issues surrounding our latest update (Co-op Farming), that our developers are aware of and are currently attempting to isolate and fix.

When attempting to join a job, some of our users may be seeing a message that states “Sorry, that job could not be found. Please join another job.”

Please be aware that our developers are currently hard at work to fix this issue. Once we have more information we’ll be sure to update you. Your continued patience is appreciated, and we thank you for sticking with us.

There are many  angry sad farmers out there wanting to work together in the true spirit of Co-op farming, hopefully the Zynga gods can make this happen for us soon.

How long do you think it will take for Zynga to resolve this issue?

Here is a sneak peek at FarmVille Easter items. Thank you to FarmVille Freak Xan995 for finding this unreleased item.

Thank you FarmVille Freaks!!!

As all of you know, FarmVille Freak is a community based fan site, where fans submit their ideas, information, art, and findings about FarmVille including when they find unreleased items from the game. We have never claimed to own these unreleased images. Only Zynga owns these images as they are copyrighted. We give credit to those FarmVille Freaks that email them to us for finding them, as there is no way to verify who “found” them first.

Through the dedication of the FarmVille Freak users and team we are able to provide the most up to date information possible, such as unreleased items. While Zynga has ownership rights to these images, we are proud that we are able to provide all information possible.

Remember, NO ONE OWNS THESE IMAGES EXCEPT ZYNGA and the Zynga gods that created them.

It was recently brought to the FVF team’s attention that another site was unfairly accusing FVF of not giving proper credit to unreleased FarmVille images found. We at FVF keep high standards in terms of crediting those who sent us information.
Our gratitude is shown by always properly crediting the users who provide us information. We give credit for every picture, source, and article that is not our own original content.

We have  NEVER been legitimately accused of stealing any content. We have never received any complaints for intellectual property  abuse. No other FarmVille fan site has ever had a problem with us. All of our content is original.

We do not read other FarmVille fan sites, even though there are many great ones such as FarmViller who specializes in Unreleased FarmVille items, because for one we do not have the time to do so and secondly, we like to keep our content original and fresh. Everyone on the FarmVille Freak team plays FarmVille. We look to Zynga for Official FarmVille information regarding releases and problems because we believe information is best gathered straight from the source.

We are dedicated in bringing you the latest information on FarmVille and serving the FarmVille Freak community!

Thank you to all FarmVille Freaks for your continued support!!!

As mentioned on FarmVille Freak, on Tuesday, Microsoft’s search engine Bing offered FarmVille players 3 free farm cash for becoming a fan of Bing on Facebook. In just one day the number of fans grew by 400,000 people.

Considering the results of this successful campaign, we can probably expect more in-game corporate sponsored advertisements offering FarmVille perks in the future.

This offer was only available for one day!

Inside Facebook featured an interesting article about this integration of brand advertising in social gaming and mentioned FarmVille Freak,

“It appears that users do in fact appreciate advertising, and offers in particular, when they’re easy to find and clearly valuable. FarmVille-focused blog FarmVille Freak noted the Bing campaign in a post yesterday, and polled its readers to see what they thought. The question was: “Will you be clicking the Bing FarmVille Sponsored Link?” The possible answers were “Yes, I love Farm Cash!,” “No, I hate Bing! Long live Google!” and “Maybe, would like the Farm Cash, not Bing!” So far, 68% of respondents, or more than 3,500 people, have vote for the first option. Granted, readers of a blog about a social game are probably more interested in Farm Cash than the average player, but still an interesting data point.”
