We’ve received so many reports about the Craftshop going live and then being pulled back that we had to give you room to talk about it on FarmVille United Nations!
Earlier today the Craftshop was slowly rolling out to all farmers. Most farmers were able to “Look Inside” their Craftshop and view the new recipes that we mentioned here on FarmVille United Nations.
Now, tonight, the majority of farmers are reporting that their Craftshop returned to “Coming Soon” status.
When new features such as the Craftshop function are released, there are bound to be glitchy circumstances that cause Zynga to work on fast solutions before we can all enjoy it peacefully. Hold tight, more crafting is on its way.
We realize that the Craftshop is having some issues at the moment, but what do you think so far, FarmVille Freaks? Specifically what do you think of the new Craftshop recipes and the number of bushels required?
Capital One is teaming up with Zynga to offer some special rewards for FarmVille players including Limited EditionVisigoth items. Visigoths are Capital One’s mascots.
Starting tonight the promotion will be available to farmers. For the next week, you will also be able to get a free Visigoth statue as a gift from Capital One that will grant you Double Mastery points. The Double Mastery will begin after the statue is placed on your farm and it will last for seven days. Each time you harvest crops or trees you will receive double the mastery points, and using a bushel adds one additional mastery point.
For the first time ever, farmers will also have the opportunity to dress their avatars in branded clothing, Capital One Visigoth costumes! Additionally, there will be opportunities to earn Farm Cash via Capital One television ads that feature the Visigoths. Stay tuned for more info on this upcoming promotion!
Today, a few FarmVille Freaks that have been keeping a close eye on their Craftshop buildings in anticipation of it going “live” noticed a slight change.
Your Craftshop can now be sold (for 0 Farm Coins) or stored in your Storage Cellar.
Even though you can complete your Craftshop’s construction, the actual working Craftshop building is still in “coming soon” status. Perhaps Zynga is gearing up for the Craftshop’s functionality soon!

FarmVille updated tonight with several new decorations, buildings, trees, and two Limited Edition animals including a Connemara Pony and Irish Hare.
The Connemara Pony can produce a similar type foal, the Connemara Pony Foal as seen pictured above, when placed in your FarmVille Horse Stable. In real life, the Connemara Pony originates from Ireland and excels as a show pony. You can read more about the breed on Wikipedia by clicking here.
The Irish Hare costs 12 Farm Cash and is also known as a Mountain Hare among many other names. Learn more about the breed by clicking here.
These Limited Edition animals will be available for only a short time via the FarmVille Market and are set to expire in 16 days. They can be purchased for either of your farms.
