My guess is they represent some kind of fruit but not an actual food that will be in the game. On the Tech screens for all the games, the graphics tend be more a representation of what will be gained rather than the item it's self.

As an example, if you look at the tech screen for VV3 The Restoration bar shows a hammer; saw and nails but these never appear in the game. In VV2 the medicine tech bar shows a mortar and pestle, but again they appear nowhere in the game.

I could come up with lot's more examples, but these are 2 pretty obvious ones that most people can verify.

actually they are on a bush and probably are meant to be raspberries at least that is what they look like to me but as rockmower has said they probably only represent the food tech and probably won't show up in the game itself.

invalidthirteen: You're going to check back in 5 days to see if it's released yet? I check back 5 times a day to see if it's released yet

How long does beta testing take? jeez this game better be well worth the wait. I love all 3 other ones but don't think it took them this long to release it after announcing they were making it. I am getting very impatient and antsy.

Well, we have to remember that for the other VV games, Arthur and Carla didn't have a new baby to keep track of at the same time as the release!

wow, been away from the sight for sometime now, I just thought I would check in and am I glad I did. It appears I have timed it perfect. A new VV4 due to be released soon? Yeah I am so stoked. I have been of facebook playing Farmville, good game, but nothing takes the place of VV. I guess my little farm will have to shut down for a while. lol.

How long is a piece of string?

The answer is "Until it's finished". No-one, not even Arthur, knows. It all depends on the number and seriousness of the bugs found during the testing.

rockmower you're probably right about the food im really intrigued about the trophies tab i cant wait to see what you have to do to get the trophies - i hope theres alot like VF

LDW, please take your time beta testing VV4. We don't want it rushed to us, only to find it buggy. Once again, please take your time! We can be patient (i think)

Yes take your time LDW, I can wait until next month...maybe...
