I don't think they have figured out till now that we can IM anyone. But the reasonwe could not see anyone is that will be how the feature works I guess. We will see people and talking from family members and later groups I think. Others will pretty much be in single user mode.

So does that mean that if we don't pay to play or belong to a family group that we will be in single player mode all the time? That kind of stinks because I really can't pay to play and I don't have any family members that play to join their group. Or did I misunderstand your statement? :blush:

Oh, don't worry! He was talking about when VFK closes for the night. You will still be able to talk/see other people during the day, just not after hours.

Like sitting might be a priority or lets say being able to put items right beside each other and stacking. I hope they get it together faster because VFK is becoming a ghost town really fast.

Belle, I thought it should be further down the list in the world of functional necessities as well. I am just passing along what was said.
I think they have put a higher priority on items promised as part of the pay package - that said, who cares if you get what you paid for if the rest of it is what makes it functional and brings in the majority of the other people.

Again, not a lot was explained - and the test really reeked havoc on the game last night. Taking a conglomeration of information and experience, I will tell you what I think they are planning for after hours. Normal Game hours everyone will be live and together (except banned players) IM will be between family and maybe groups only. (Currently a member can IM anyone) After hours pay players will be able to see at least family or group members and who is on line and IM with them - it is unclear but I think they can also chat normal as well. Non-members will be in single player mode (again this is after hours only)
I think a few features are giving them a lot more difficulty in setting up then they expected, so while they feel they are on schedule. Everyone else thinks they are not.
As far as a ghost town - none of the games including VFK have really provided what we had with VMK so it is summer and people are not going to hang out to see what’s happening when nothing is. They need to finish the important features then the pay features, put together a theme and events and get on a calendar that works like the rest of the planet.

Totally agreed Add. I think people are more concerned with the physical items than the messaging in the game. What is the point if you can not build in your rooms. Can not do more than two games. They really released the Founder package too early. But it is sad I log on and see hardly any friends. After you play a few games of Birds or fireworks not much left to do. Lets hope there are major improvements really fast.

:rofl1: Yup, and you got me! All of a sudden overnight, this huge honking blue window pops up in the game! It was Adventure IMing me! I had not seen this before, and for me not being a family or group member, it startled a few feathers loose! :rofl1:
