🐷Farm House Update

[uncut quartz]

When joining the Farm House update, I wasn’t sure exactly which house it is you’re able to grow plants in as part of the update - a solution for this would be to add “NEW” on the recently added items and/or make them filter at the top of the categories so players can find the new content easily.

Unless players play Brookhaven every single day, new players aren’t going to know which one is new.

Additionally, what can players do with the corn when it’s grown? Would be cool to incorporate some incentive for players growing corn (such as being able to eat it?) Will there be new plants they can grow such as tomatoes, carrots, cucumbers, wheat etc? Will plants “grow” quicker when watering them? Or a new prop being “plant food” to help plants grow quicker?

P.S Whoever worked on the Farm House builds did a fantastic job, the houses look amazing!

It already has a feature to show new houses/items added to the game; the button is located at the top of the interface when claiming a house plot.

I’m on mobile, I looked and I couldn’t see it - mind telling me which one? Still think a “NEW” sign or something obvious to entice players to check it out would be helpful. When I chose the plot, I had to scroll all the way down to the bottom to find the Farm House house.

I think maybe by default it should show the newest additions at the very top, without needing to enable a feature to show new content.

I don't think so

i don't have the image permission because i'm not in the required level for posting image but i can sent you in private to show you or describe what the filter button look like

Click on the box with the star to see new items only. This is in the props and tool menus too

[uncut quartz]

IMO I think that could be made a little more obvious that it’s to see new items. Could be just me though - that’s fine! Not everyone will agree with suggestions🙂

For example, the star could be replaced with the word “NEW” - but again this is just coming from me as a new player perspective.

I can bring some ideas back to the team. We try to stay away from text in our icons so that players from other regions don’t need to translate from English but maybe there is a happy middle ground somewhere for sure

Hm, that’s a fair point about localisation! I could be wrong but doesn’t Roblox support localisation if it’s a GUI text label?

🆕 Could you use this maybe?

[austere atlas]

We do use localization for the rest of the UI, just not icons atm. I’ll bring it up next week to see what others think, I appreciate the suggestion!

[uncut quartz]

No worries at all. No pressure, again, just coming from a new player perspective! I understand that majority of Brookhaven will be loyal players so they’ll know what everything means 🙂

Imagine just getting set dressing for yet another farm update that doesn’t add anything and the constant gagging of the community is wrong , do not put hints of pigs or cows if the update doesn’t contain those items. Updates need improving a lot, 4 farm houses with no new gameplay….. just hop over to driving empire where their 97% effort goes ….

Hey Stud! The only thing I can see where they’ve hinted is the event title “Farm House 👩‍🌾🐔” I cannot seem to find it anywhere else.

I believe the use of the chicken icon is because players associate that icon with a farm. Just like I used the pig icon in the suggestions title - so it’s associated with the farm update🙂

I’m sure the devs didn’t mean anything by it and will keep this in mind for the next update!

Additionally - I’m sure they have updates to add more content to the farm in the future. Most likely they’re just testing the waters to see if the update gets the traction they’d like it to before adding more content.

[tulip kindle]

They used a pig and a cow emoji 🙂

[uncut quartz]

Yeah I reckon that’ll just be them using emojis that symbolise a farm, rather than being specific to the emoji 🙂

At the end of the day my point is a lot of us are sick and tired of no extra gameplay content added, could of added animals but didn’t, could of added a harvester but didn’t, these updates just don’t go that deep.

We’re sick of set dressing.

And might I add set dressing worked well before because we relied on the server and our friends to elevate that experience but now that’s become almost impossible.
