No train at all - not fixed or waiting to be fixed at level 72. This is an active player. Wonder how this is possible?

But how is that possible? You can't play Hay Day without updating it. The update installs automatically, and you can't even play the game until the update installs.Quote:

If it was, I have my automatic updates turned off so maybe this person does too?
Edited to add...nevermind, I figured it out, lol. You can only avoid the download for a little bit. Back to not understanding.
Ignore me, lol
That was entertaining...LOL!! You think just like I do! Hey, WE know where we're going with a thought, right? :DQuote:

Perhaps maybe, just maybe, if you come out from under your desk, your brain will get some fresh air and it will start to methodically work again.
(I'm just totally joking! But I had to chime in, especially after reading your "you've been playing too long" post)
LOL! :) You wouldn't be the first to tell me to come out from under there, lol.Quote:

The OP did not say he saw activities on that person's farm, therefore I guess that player is currently staying away from his farm. I didn't know HD would force you to update the app, but at least once I have delayed a minor update for quite long (on Android). I don't know how it goes for major updates. I have seen many farms as the one in the screenshot, that was when the town update came out and many players haven't had the time to update their app yet.Quote:

I'm on Android, and I can't avoid updating. The train update went live when I was on the road in the middle of nowhere. There was no way I was downloading that huge update without wi-fi, so I couldn't play. I just wanted to stock my dairy and sugar mill, but noooo.....
It's true that you'll see farms without train stations if the player hasn't checked in since the update. I deleted about 20 followers because they didn't have train stations after a month. They were no longer playing, so I punted them.
But it's weird to see it with an active player. Some kind of memory issue, maybe? If not, yeah, he's probably playing on an emulator.

And if we don't watch it, they will get the phone box! Just like the angels did. I changed my eBay password the other day and of course had to check out both the tigger stuff and the Dr. Who stuff for sale. And there was a towel or blanket with a bunch of minions from despicable ME taking off with the Tardis. It was really cool.Quote:

So basically I can use an PS emulator to run and play PlayStation games on a PC for example, or Nintendo games on iOS.Quote:

The OP should ask this particular player directly to find out what he's got in mind :rolleyes:
There are a lot of reasons. Maybe he wants to play Hay Day but doesn't have a tablet or a smartphone.Quote:

Seriously, if I didn't have a smartphone or tablet and thus had to sit in front of a PC/Mac to play HD on an emulator, then I wouldn't be able to become such an active player haha ;). (but really, who doesn't have a smartphone or tablet these days :rolleyes:)Quote:

Personally, I'd like to play on my PC while at home. Larger screen, and I'm more comfortable mousing than swiping.Quote:
