The Wild West Online forum has been updated with an announcement that farming will be coming to the game. The decision to implement "farming and roleplaying", came as a result of feedback from alpha testers, discussions on the forums and from comments made on Facebook. To achieve that goal, a number of essential farming facts have been revealed.
- Players will be able to farm a wide variety of plants from grains to vegetables to fruit. However, to begin, players will need seeds. Some can be purchased from a store or obtained from other farmers. Others will require a quest chain or simply a "lucky find" when out adventuring.
- Harvested items can then be used in crafting edibles, beverages, poisons or medicines or just be consumed by individuals or sold to other players or vendors.
- The more farming a player participates in, the more recipes become available.
- wild plants and the edibles procured from them can also be used to craft unique alcoholic beverages "that can be sold at a premium"
