You can now send Spring Eggs to your friends and trade them in for special items!

Please find more information about the Spring Basket below:

Spring Basket:

With the Spring Basket you can collect Spring Eggs from your friends, then trade them in for special items.

Open your giftbox and you’ll find a Spring Basket waiting for you.

After you place the Spring Basket on your Farm, you will see the following pop-up.
In order to collect Spring Eggs, you’ll have to receive them from friends, either as gifts or finding them on their farm during fertilizing. Clicking the ‘Ask for Eggs’ button will allow you to send a single Spring Egg to any of your friends (just like the Free Gifts page), and give them the chance to send you one in return. (Note: You can only Ask for or Send Love to 10 Neighbors every 24 hours.)

Friends can also send Spring Eggs from the Free Gifts page:


As stated in the message you receive when first opening the Spring Basket, new farmers that have been playing for 7 days or less can send out more Eggs at a time. New farmers can send three Spring Eggs to a single friend.

New Stallions can now be found wandering around FarmVille that will allow you to get Foals from your Horse Stable!


Horse Stables:

Periodically, you will receive a pop-up informing you that a “Wandering Stallion” has appeared on your farm. This pop-up will allow you to post a feed to your wall. Ten of your Neighbors can click on this feed to give shelter to the Wandering Stallion.

Unlike other “Lonely” animals, the Wandering Stallion is an event, and is NOT a permanent animal that can be kept on your Farm.

If you choose to give the Wandering Stallion shelter, he will automatically be placed into your Horse Stable. If you have a Wandering Stallion, you have a chance of receiving a Foal the next time you collect from your Stable.

If you already have a Wandering Stallion in your Horse Stable, you will not be able to get another. Clicking on multiple Wandering Stallion feeds from your Neighbors will not increase the chances of a Foal being born.

When a Foal is born, you will receive a pop-up informing you that your newborn is eager to explore the world. This pop-up will allow you to post a feed to your wall. Five of your Neighbors can click on this feed to receive a Foal.

The type of Foal you receive is determined by the types of horse in your Stable. Please note that the Pink Pony, Brown Pony, High Kick Horse and Spectator Horse will produce a Brown Foal.

Once you harvest from your Stable and find a Foal, you will have to click on a new Wandering Stallion feed to have a chance of making another foal.

The Limited Edition “White Stallion” can be placed inside your Horse Stable and will act like a permanent Wandering Stallion. Each time you harvest from your Stable you will have a chance to find a Foal. If you receive a Foal, you will not get a consumable. If you do not get a Foal when collecting from your Stable, you still have a chance of receiving an Arborist, Farm Hand or 100 XP.

Baby Foals can be brushed every 24 hours and cannot be placed inside your Horse Stable.

If the Wandering Stallion does not give you a Foal and you also do not get a Consumable, you will receive a coin bonus.

Additional Notes:

• The two building components for the Stable that are featured on the Free Gifts page will now change on a weekly basis.
• The two building components for the Maison that are featured on the Free Gifts page will now change on a weekly basis.
• The Collectable Free Gifts that are featured on the Free Gifts page will now change on a daily basis.

There is now a faster way to allocate your skill points. You can still assign points 1 at a time, or you can use the +5 button to put 5 into one category.

To see the new screen, go to your Profile. You'll now see +1 and +5 buttons next to each skill category.

Select +1 to assign points the same way you always have. Or, save time by selecting +5 to put all points into one category.

Strategy Tip: Consider rotating your points each time you level. Use +5 to put all to attack on your next level, +5 to put all to defense on the following level, and so on. 

You can now build your very own decorative La Maison building!

La Maison:


The La Maison foundation can be purchased from the Buildings section of Market for 5,000 Coins.

Once you’ve placed the Foundation on your farm, you will be prompted with a message letting you know that you can post a feed to ask you friends for help building your Maison.

Clicking the "Share" button will give you the option to post a feed to your wall asking your Neighbors for help.

In order to complete your La Maison, you’ll need to finish building it. Selecting ‘Look Inside’ from your foundation’s menu will show you what you need to complete your La Maison.

When you first place the foundation, you’ll have one Slate Tile already. In order to build a complete La Maison you’ll need 10 of each item. You can get these items one of two ways:

1. From neighbors via the Free Gifts menu.

Neighbors can send you the components you need to build your La Maison. Your Neighbors will be able to send you two of the five types of building components to help you complete your La Maison.

Please note that the two components displayed on the Free Gifts Page are randomized. As such, the components displayed on the Free Gifts Page may be different for each user.

When neighbors send you a building component, it works exactly like any other free gift. After you accept the gift it will appear in your gift box.

After clicking the "use" button under the gift it will automatically be added to your La Maison.


2. Purchasing components from the Market,

You can purchase components required to build your La Maison from the Market for 1 Farm Cash per item.

When you reach 25 items, you’ll receive pop-up that will allow you to post a feed to your wall. The first ten neighbors to click this feed will receive a random building component for their own La Maison construction.

When you complete your La Maison, you will receive a popup asking you if you’d like to share the news with your friends. Clicking the Share button on this popup will give you the option to post a feed to your wall that will give up to five neighbors who click on it a free Provencal Pot.

Please remember that the La Maison is only a decorative item. It does not have any additional functionality.

You will be able to store the La Maison in storage once it is complete.

You will only be able to have ONE buildable La Maison on your Farm (even when it’s complete you will be unable to start building a new one).

Alternatively, you can have an infinite number of the La Maisons if they are purchased with Farm Cash.

Apprentices will also gain guidance and additional help from their masters so that they can become powerful enough to fend for themselves in the dangerous world of Castle Age!

Bug:
Due to a series of technical issues, players were able to collect more than one copy of Epic Circle of Warding.
Players should only be able to collect/be in possession of one copy of Epic Circle of Warding.
Resolution:
We’re currently running a script to ensure that:
1. ONLY players who have completed the Undead Legends avatar set have the LE.
2. No players has more than 1 of this LE (excepting Admins).
What this means for you:
If you only have a single copy of Epic Circle of Warding, you will not be effected by this change.
For players that have gathered more than a copy of ECoW, your excess copies of the ability will be removed until you are in possession of only one.
Further, if you received an ECoW without completing the Undead Legends event, that ability will be removed from your inventory until you complete it.

However, if removed from a Top Mafia position they will no longer be able to fill a class specific spot if the class does not match the required Top Mafia description.

Hey folks,

We just did a major overhaul of the systems supporting gifting in order to make things more robust.

There are no major functional differences other than the fact that gifting should be much less glitchy now.

One material difference is that the system will only track 100 unaccepted gifts. If you haven't accepted your gifts when the 101st gift comes in it will release the first gift in the queue. In other words - first in, first out.

Please let us know if you spot any problems with how the gifting system is working.

Collect Early:
Currently, you can bribe Jeremy to give you items you were a bit late collecting. Now, you can bribe him to give you items you might have shown up too early to collect.
When you visit the Collector, you’ll see a button that says: “Collect Early for {X} Favor Points”. Clicking this button will allow you to collect your item before the you normally would be able to.
Read on for more information about Collecting Early and scroll to the bottom for information on the new Combat Brackets.

*Note: The button will not have a confirmation popup. It will automatically deduct the FP.
The price of the bribe will depend on how long before you’re due to collect. The more time left before your item to arrives, the more you’ll be charged to collect early.
For every four hours you are early, you’ll be charged 1 Favor Point, rounded up.
Example: If you show up to collect a Deadbull Energy Boost 5.5 hours early, you’ll be charged 2 Favor Points.
Remember:

You can now get bonus coins once per day when your neighbors comment on your wall and visit your pet! Help your neighbors earn extra coins by visiting them and leaving comments every day. To receive your bonus, simply open your comment wall every day!

We have also made improvements to the buttons located on the lower half of the screen. These icons have been made smaller and moved down on the screen allowing you more room to pick up trash on the ground.

Hey Farmers,

When the Chicken Coop feature was initially released, it was not intended for users to be able to have more than one chicken coop per farm.

Due to various glitches and bugs in the past few weeks, certain users were able to place multiple chicken coops on their farms, which is a violation of FarmVille policy.

In order to rectify this situation, the FarmVille team has removed all excess Chicken Coops. This means that all users who are in possession of more than one Chicken Coop will be affected by this release.

To ensure our players are not overly inconvenienced by this change, all chickens that are in excess coops will be placed in your Gift Box. If you have more than 30 Chickens in multiple coops, your gift box will expand to accommodate all of them. This should ensure that you do not lose any chickens that are housed in excess coops.

In addition to this, we will leave the most valuable Chicken Coop on your farm. For example: if you are in possession of two chicken coops, one will be removed. If one Coop has 20 chickens and the other Coop has 3, we will leave the coop with 20 chickens on your farm.

This update will be completed in stages over the next few days, as it is a fairly complicated fix. This means that certain users will lose their additional coops before others.

We understand that many of our players enjoy having multiple Chicken Coops, however allowing this is something that threatens the stability of FarmVille. Having multiple coops increases the chances of producing Mystery Eggs. Having too many Mystery Eggs present in the FarmVille economy can unbalance the game. To ensure the health and longevity of FarmVille, we must limit the number of Chicken Coops to one per user.

After this release, being in possession of multiple Chicken Coops may result in consequences, as additional coops can only be obtained via cheating or hacking. If you would like to report a user for having multiple coops, please feel free to contact Zynga Customer Support.

We apologize for any inconvenience or confusion these glitches may have caused you and we would like to thank you for your patience and understanding while we continue to work through the Beta process.

Mafia Wars Bangkok is now officially in open beta! If you've already collected the 3 hidden items in the New York jobs and are level 18 and above, you're eligible to grab your passport and continue growing your Mafia empire in Thailand!

There are three ways to get your passport - see the clerk, ask your friends, or bribe an official. You can only see the clerk once a day for a passport drop. If you don't get one on your first try, don't give up - the clerk will grant you access soon enough if you keep being persistent. You can also post a request for a passport and see if some of your more well-connected Mafia members can hook you up. If you're really itching to get your travel started, bribing an official is your guarantee for instant access. Not only will you get a passport for yourself, you'll get 3 additional ones to hand out to some very lucky Mafia members.

Our goal for this passport distribution system is to maintain a steady flow of users coming into the new city to keep the Bangkok servers running smoothly for everyone. We want to provide exciting and uninterrupted game play for all, while giving you a fun and challenging obstacle to conquer.

So, once you have your passport in hand, pack up your suitcase and go master Bangkok! Good luck to all! Click here to play.

Today, FarmVille is proud to release Zynga's Relief Fund for Haiti!
In this event, players will be able to purchase special White Corn from the Market.
In addition, players have the option to donate 25, 55 or 240 Farm Cash to Zynga's Relief Fund for Haiti!

Some quick tips regarding White Corn:

• 10 coins to plant.
• Yields 125 Coins when Harvested.
• 3 XP gained when planting. (Crop takes 6 Hours to grow).
• After purchasing the White Corn, all donors will receive a one week license to plant them. This means that users are able to plant white corn in unlimited amounts for 7 days only.
• White Corn will never wither!

The best part of this event? Zynga will donate 100% of the proceeds earned from this event to help aid children and their families in Haiti during their time of need.

What could be sweeter than lending a helping hand?
