Help with farm

Crazyhorselady

Ok my husband and I have started playing farmville 2 and he is new I started my game back up from quite a few years back (I think 2014), but he is having huge issues getting items he has to ask for to complete quests as he is still a low level he is also having issues getting friends. He isn't playing on Facebook he is playing on Zynga as am I. We are both having issues obtaining items you must ask friends for, like hammers (for his hen house goat shed etc) things that can't be obtained by random chance from a mystery gift but you must ask a friend for them. I know this has been an issue but has anyone been able to find a way to continue playing with this issue? My husband likes the game but he is about to give up, because he can't get anywhere he pretty much is slowly grinding to a halt. I have tried to help him but the notifications don't go through he has tried the same for me and it's the same. We just don't know what to do. any advise would really help us out.

This is a problem that has been posted many times. I.e lots of threads.
Can you please post in this thread that you are experiencing the problem, post as separate as you both are experiencing the problem. We are trying to get it escalated.

Yes, I've already posted in that thread. I was just curious if anyone has found a loophole so to speak to keep the game moving forward for the time being.

Im in the same boat! Cant add friends, zfriends which means im stuck. I cant build anything, complete quests or anything. ready to quit

Why can't you add Zfriends?

BTW @Crazyhorselady , you and your husband might find you run into a whole shed load of problems, all of which, have been experienced many, many times before. You will probably find it easier and faster, if you do a search of the forums, using key words in the search box, you will probably find numerous threads on the same issue, and hopefully find a quick resolution. Of course, I'm sure someone will know something and answer on here if you cant find any previous threads.

@Irena.P I can add Zfriends but that's it I've tried to add new neighbors but either they aren't responding or it's not going through. It says I have 55 friends but I only get responses from about 4 or 5 of them. If I could filter out the ones that aren't responding/playing that would make it easier. Also my notification bell on Zynga isn't loading I have 4 notifications on there and it wont load I tried clearing my cache and cookies still isn't loading I get notifications in the envelope for friends needing things but oddly they are almost the same things like bottles farmhands and mystery boxes thats about it. My husband is having the same issue on his laptop but his is older then mine, so we figured it was just being stubborn but my laptop started doing it too... I'm honestly at a loss.

There is a serious issue for over a month regards asking for items from friends,
https://zyngaplayerforums.com/farmville2/discussion/3183745/attention-pls-moderator#latest . You may be getting a few requests arriving from older players who are not having the issue to such an extent.

Your requests to add your friends as neighbours may not be going through because of this. However, as the game is around 8 yrs old, and we are not allowed to delete neighbours who quit playing years ago. you might find, older players cannot accept any new neighbours, I know I can't. although I have so many with withered farms on my neighbour bar. Only thing I can do (AGAIN) is ask Support to delete all my neighbours.

One sure way to add neighbours to your farm is invite them from the Fair wagon.

This is confusing. I see 2 words-Neighbors and friends.When you ask for an item you are asking NOT zfriends, but neighbors. I have neighbors who are not my zfriends. And not all zfriends are your neighbors. Each week the participants in the fair have a button that says "add neighbor". Do those each week, some are bound to respond.

Part of this is correct - not all ZFriends are neighbors. Adding people from the fair adds them as neighbors but not ZFriends. When you are asking for help, you ARE asking friends (ZFriends and FB friends). There is a limit to how many neighbors you can have. As far as I know, there is no limit to how many friends you can have.

My bad daddysgirl491, you are correct. but with only 50 friends you will get nowhere fast Crazyhorselady. I use as many as 100 to 200 friends for just one request, depending on what it is and how bad I need it. I always get my fill. Yes it's true many will not respond because many do not clear their inbox regularly or not at all. Quantity is of the essence here. When you go to your profile, add all "suggested friends" and do it regularly and continuously until you have built up a good base.

Thanks for the tips
