Building a Garage - FarmVille English Countryside

So, you've already spotted the broken Super Combine on your FarmVille English Countryside, but even after you repair it (check out our guide), do you really want to leave this fantastic three-in-one farm vehicle only capable of farming a 2x2 square area of land?

If not, you'll need to build a Garage, and luckily for you, a themed Garage has been released in the new English Countryside market. However, just like the Super Combine itself, it comes in a state of complete disrepair, and you'll need to rebuild it. Unlike the Super Combine, which was placed on your new farm by default, this is a building that must be purchased, even in its sorry state. The Garage Frame costs 50,000 coins to purchase from the store.

Once you purchase the frame, you'll have a building on your farm like the one in the image at the top of this post. To make the garage whole again (that is, make it functional), you'll need to collect a series of building parts - 10 each of Nails, Wooden Boards, and Bricks. Technically, you'll only need to collect 29 parts, as a Brick has been given to you for free.

If you didn't save up these 29 building ingredients in preparation for the launch of the English Countryside, or you've already used all of your saved parts on another building, here's a reminder of where you can find more.

- Click on the "Ask for More" button under any ingredient and send out individual requests for ingredients

- Purchase them from the store for 1 Farm Cash each

- Open Special Delivery Boxes which should give you the parts you need

- Ask your friends to send you these items from the game's free gifts page

- Look out for wall posts from friends that have completed building either their own Garage or other structures as they offer free building materials.

Building a Garage is the only way you'll be able to upgrade your Super Combine, or any other vehicles you may purchase in the future. It comes with a starting capacity of 20 Vehicles, and as of this writing, can't be expanded to hold more. However, unless you simply like to collect excess vehicles because of the way they look, the Super Combine is all you will ever need in terms of pure function.

Building Experience Points in FishVille

The goal of FishVille is to build up a quick supply of coins. But coins are not the only thing that you need to advance you along in the game. You also need to build up a good supply of experience points so you can open new options and continue playing the game. This happens normally in the course of the game. But there are several things for you to do to help you get those needed experience points faster.

Mature Fish

The everyday task of raising and selling fish will give some of the needed experience points. The time you decide to sell the fish also affects how much you get for the fish. So you need to analyze and plan when it is the best time to sell a fish. Fish tend to go through different stages of growth. As the fish get to a new stage they become more valuable in cash and experience as well. So if you want the most experience and cash possible for each fish you need to let them fully mature before selling them.

Quick Experience Points

If you want to rack up a lot of experience points quickly it is best to look at the points earned for each hour. You can be easily deceived if all you see is a big amount of points from the sale of a particular type of fish. All too often the fish having a lump sum payout are not really the best if you are trying to get points quickly. A lot of times the big payout fish are the slower growing ones. If that is the case you might be better off raising a bunch of fish with a short cycle. You could gain a whole lot more experience points by raising several batches of short cycle fish in the the time it would take to raise one big point fish. While they may not pay as much, since it doesn't take as long to raise them you make it up on volume.

When you first start playing FishVille accumulating coins may seem a whole lot more important and exciting than the experience factor. Hey it takes money to buy things. But experience points allow you a bunch of different choices in the game, so you will definitely want to rack up as much experience for points as possible.

Tips For Building Franchises and Headquarters In CityVille

One of the biggest, most unique features in the game is turning your business into a franchise. By doing this, you can place your own variety of business in your friends cities and supply your various businesses via your franchise headquarters and make large amounts of money. In fact, franchising might very well be your single biggest tool in CityVille for making a whole lot of money.

So how do you franchise?
Continue reading the below to learn how to build a mega conglomerate and get rich-

To build a franchise in someone else's city, first, you need to unlock the ability to build a franchise by completing a set of missions. However, you accomplish this very early in the game, so I don't think anything needs to be written about this. After that, you need to have a friend who has an available empty plot (or more than one empty plot) so that you can build a franchise on it. Click on the empty plot when you're in their town, and choose what business you want to build there. You will be prompted by the game to build one of your franchises there.

After you build your first franchise, you'll be prompted to build a headquarters. You don't need to build it next to a street, and it will be unaffected by any nearby decorations, so it doesn't really matter where you build it. Your CityVille headquarters will be used to supply your franchises in friends' cities and collect bonuses.

Each franchise will cost half as much to supply as your hometown version of the franchise does (for example, a coffee shop in your town costs 100 goods to supply, and your coffee franchise in your friend's town costs 50 goods to supply). One of the great to make more and more money off of your franchises is to keep expanding into more and more of your friends' cities. Allow people to build franchises in your city as well and build more empty plots of land in order to do this as the more empty plots you build and franchises you allow, the higher the chance that your friends will return the favor for you.

The more of the same type of franchise you build in your friends' cities, the taller your headquarters building will grow and working towards building your franchises should be your first priority. Remember to complete missions that have to do with leveling up your franchise and building your franchise because this is what will really get you far in CityVille!

What Are Building Grants Used For In Cityville

How to get building grants in Cityville - must you pay for them or is there another way? Find out below, in this article.

What Are Building Grants?

They are an item that can be stored in your inventory and are sometimes needed to finish a Community Building (these are necessary to expand your population). You may have seen Community Buildings that need Staff Members. These do not require Building Grants. However, there are some that are in the reverse situation and so you must get one of these items. These buildings include the Museum, Grade School, Carousel, Firehouse, High School, Hospital, Baseball Field and Court House. One Building Grant is rarely enough. You may need anywhere between 1 and 9 grants to finish off your building.

How To Get Building Grants In Cityville?

You will probably accumulate them as you go along in the game at random moments. If you need one, there is no way to buy one, even with Cityville cash. Instead, you should ask your neighbors for one. This is yet another reason and just one of many, why you should make efforts to make a lot of neighbors in Cityville. You will derive so many benefits from doing so. I recommend finding Cityville fan pages and blogs and leaving comments saying "add me". Some people create a second Facebook account specifically for their Cityville playing so you may want to consider this.

Why Do You Need More And More Grants The Further Through The Game You Go?

This is Zynga's way of making the game hard. Like all good games, advancing through the first few levels is fairly easy but it becomes a greater challenge to reach the top ones. But that makes it all the more satisfying when you do.
