Hi, I am new to the forum and thought I would introduce myself and then beg for advice as I am desperately unhappy with V V 2!

I am one of a group of three, here in the UK, who have been trying to play the new VV version. We loved VV1 and were thrilled when the new version was released. One of our group was the first (we were told) to complete VV2 or so the Stats said) but since then, they have also had terrible problems trying to get anywhere. We have virtually reached the point of total disappointment where we are seriously thinking of giving up and never bothering with it again. I was voted spokes person to come to the forum to see if we could get help or advice before we gave up completely.

The problem that I have is that I can get the fire going, and a couple of times I have even managed to get the dam built but I frequently get algie and then all my villagers die. In fact, so far all my villagers die within 24 - 48 hours no matter what.

I cannot tell you how frustrating this is proving to be.

There were a lot of new features on VV2 which I really liked, but whereas I still have several VV1 going strong after about three months, every single VV2 village fails at the first level.

If anyone can offer me any advice or help, all three of us would very much appreciate it.

Thanks
Flori
