When to Go Offline in Farm Town

Farm Town Secrets

A lot of the fun of playing Farm Town on Facebook or another social networking site, a lot of the fun and enjoyment of the game is derived from the ability to interact with your friends and fellow players. The game gives you quite a few good ways to do this too. You gain some benefits from being able to hire other players to harvest your crops, and it's also just nice to be able to stop and talk and exchange ideas with people who enjoy life in Farm Town as much as you do.

Away From the Crowds

Despite all of these positives, however, there are times when you won't want to have to deal with the crowds. And another one of the benefits of life in Farm Town is that you don't have to deal with all the other players online when you are if you don't want to. The market can be awfully crowded at times, and even if you normally enjoy the easy company of your fellow players, there will be days when you just want to spend some quiet time on your farm on your own.

Offline but Still Connected

As long as you don't need to hire anyone to harvest your crops for you, you can choose to go offline at any time while playing Farm Town. You can do this by clicking on the plug icon in the top right hand corner of your screen and selecting offline mode. Doing this will not disconnect you from the internet or from the Farm Town network itself, but it will keep your presence in town hidden from your fellow players.

Have the Town to Yourself

Not only will going offline hide you from your fellow players, but it will hide them from you as well. You'll be able to go to the market without having to navigate the crowd, and you can even go and do chores on your neighbors' farms without having to see them if they're playing at the same time. This is definitely a convenient option to have at your disposal, but you need to use it wisely if you want to maximize your ability to expand your farm in Farm Town.

Progress Through Connections

The number of connections you're able to make is one of the aspects of play in Farm Town that will have the greatest impact on your ability to move up quickly. The more neighbors and buddies you have, the more farms you'll be able to visit, the more people will come to do chores on your farm, the easier it will be to find harvesting help, and the more gifts you'll get.

It's easy to see why having neighbors and buddies in Farm Town is a decided advantage. Staying offline and keeping to yourself will never get you the significant numbers of connections you need to be really successful. You need to put yourself out there and engage with the other players in the game. That being said though, there's nothing wrong with enjoying a little quiet time on your farm – just get a good balance and you'll do fine.
