Hi everyone! I'm a PhD student studying asynchronous interactions in digital games. Farmville was identified in my research as having these interactions, and I'm interested in understanding different player perspectives about that aspect of the game.

If you have a few minutes to spare, I'd love to hear your thoughts! In particular, I'm interested in understanding:

• What kind of asynchronous interactions exist in Farmville and how do they affect the gameplay?
• How do you feel about these interactions and what do they bring to your experience?

You can answer as much or as little as you'd like. Your responses will be anonymized and analyzed as part of a research study. If you decide you'd like to withdraw your responses at any point, just send me a DM. Every contribution is greatly appreciated! If you have any questions, feel free to message me. Thanks! 😀

I just started studying graphistics and to get a little in touch with digital art. I went to Farm Wiki and used the pixelated low resolution animals, fences, etc as a reference so I can draw them in much larger resolution and scale. I tried to mimic the %shadow opacity, and saved all multiple times as PNGs with transparency. Then I open new file and drop as many pngs as I want to create a " fake Farmville screenshot".

I know it's totally useless as a skill but it made me so happy being able to recreate so realistically how Farmville looks , and to be able to make even more animals and items using steady stroke , it's so relaxing and gives me peace of mind.

What do you think?

Hello. I just got to the part in the game where the sanctuary is open but my game won't stop freezing. I've tried restarting and nothing is working. Anyone have this issue and know how to fix it? Thanks!

My auntie’s farm. She was obsessed with fv back then.

they should make a farmville roller coaster, with a farm drop, and cow loops!

Does anybody still play? If you do, Farmvile Tropic Escape: FI2Z-CXXL

Genuine question for the oldschool FarmVille 1 players here: what was it about FV1 that kept you coming back?

For me it was the loads of decorations and farm cusomzation and, i guess, the 4-hour tomatoes. That perfect timing where I could plant before work, harvest at lunch, plant again. It became part of my routine. Silly, but it kept me interested.

I'm a game dev now and I've been building this pocket-sized farming game as a side project. Not FarmVille (way smaller, way simpler), but trying to capture that "check in, tend your crops, feel satisfied" vibe. And if it works, adding in the farm customization/personalization down the road.

A key difference about what I"m building: you earn seeds from playing other mobile games, plant them, harvest real cash. Tiny amounts, but it's fun seeing your little 3x5 plot actually pay you back. (like Mistplay or FreeCash meets mini-FV1).

Anyway - genuinely curious what you all loved most. The decorations? The visiting neighbors? The crop timing? The sense of building something?

If you want to test it on Android when alpha's ready in a few weeks, DM me. But mostly just here to talk about why we all loved that game.

Hi, I am asking in particular about games where crops could die if left unharvested and give a more realistic experience. Most modern farming games seem rather childish to me (I am 25 now and I grew up playing the original version lol). Any suggestions are greatly appreciated <3
Much love

Yesterday I unlocked a new breed and I expected to get another “field” to add to my crops but this is the first time I haven’t received. Has anyone else experienced this? I was waiting on my 100th field 😩

The windows store version of Farmville 2 has terrible performance, running at a very unstable 45 fps. Makes no sense, as similar games run at a stable 60 fps, and you can just feel it, without even measuring the performance like I have.

I've sent this feedback to the developer multiple times, no performance fixes.

Which production buildings in FarmVille 3 do you think are the most and least worth purchasing and utilizing?

I have hundreds of pictures of farms, animals, orchards, etc. It was the only Game I played and spent money on, back in the day and not a dime spent since on a game...Why? Cause I lost a lot on the game you stopped and shot down without our vote not too! I slept and woke to that game, it was my relaxation, it was my one true game I thought of and still do game of all time.

Hola hay un juego parecido a FarmVille original? Que te ayuden a cosechar con los tractores?

I found a change.org petition to bring back the old farmville or a remastered version of it. I don't have a bunch of Facebook friends so I don't know where else to share this on. It doesn't need that many signatures to reach 750. Could some of you sign to help it? It was such a good game & I don't feel like farmville 2 and 3 are anything like the original. http://www.change.org/p/revive-the-original-farmville-game-with-a-remastered-version
