Gardening Slowdown?

Was harvesting and clearing my 28 plots and as I was clearing I couldn't clear any plots. And then I notice this message:

Slow down! Gardening is a leisure activity.

Seriously? Is EVERYTHING in this game slowing down to a crawl? What's the purpose of leveling up and getting skills and buying a big house with alot of plots? Shoot, what's the purpose of this game? Seems like the activity is all about the forums and making friends or community or therapy or what not. What about playing the game?

  • Hmmm... that's weird. Not sure why that was implemented.

  • I have seen this msg infrequently for awhile now.  I'm not sure when it was implemented, or what triggers it.For me, it seems random at best.

  • This is not new.  I think it is supposed to occur when you are clicking/hitting enter to start the next garden activity (say watering) before the last one (maybe tending) has finished.

    However, I seem to get it at weird-ish times due to lag.  So, really, it's probably lag that is your complaint.  You likely think it's reasonable to only be able to do one thing at a time.

  • Gardening isn't leasure. I hate gardening. It's boring and reminds me of FarmVille. It would be much less boring if it didn't cost so much time. If only I could harvest/clear/plant an entire "section" at once!

    Right now gardening is one of the few things I dislike in this game. After reset I'm going to choose my gardening skills much more strategic: only the ones needed for fancy AK-skills.

    You can get rich very fast in this game, I much rather buy crops from produce vendors than bother with gardening.

  • Whenever I get that message, I get caught in an loop. When It happens I know it's time to reload. Takes care of the problem and I can get back to work.

  • @larky I am pretty quick on the keys, and always have been. In addition, I have always had lag problems (sigh-Mac Chrome). When I am doubling up on the activity, I usually get the boink noise, not a leisure notice. I am not feeling hopeful. Seems like more game slowdowns--which are yucky to this Glitch.
