Economy like farms and caravans are completely useless

[Wynne D Fanchon]

Not to mention 230,000 food in 3 1/2 days at Atmoic Age is laughable. I would think that the time to regenerate resources would be less the more you upgrade it. I mean it is called and upgrade after all.

Upping the production would help but not really solve everything.

When you can raid much faster than they produce and then factor in the time it takes to upgrade them and the workers needed they can never produce enough to not just break the game.

Give people more reason/incentive to upgrade them.

1. Bump up the production.

2. Change it from 2/4 workers to 1 for all ages.

3. Reduce the time it takes for all to be upgraded to a maximum of 1 or 2 days at the highest age they have planned. So if there are 4 more ages left make atomic age take 20 hours to upgrade.

4. Reduce the resource cost to upgrade as well. They take way too long to actually break even on your investment.

I would think that if one could upgrade all farms and caravans in just a couple of days for each age, they would do so.


If BGH doesnt want to do this then they need to make sure there is an economy especially in the higher ages, by creating a bunch of abandoned fully upgraded production building bases for us to raid.

Its only going to get worse with more and more higher level players leaving the game and more and more people realizing its a waste to upgrade them.

This post is confusing. Are people complaining about the farms to the point that Nexon should get rid of the farms? People have always complained about the production rate of farms/caravans but often they won't upgrade them.
The farms/caravans are deliberately designed to not help you progress, you have to raid to do that.
If you want increased rates of production, instead of complaining to Nexon just upgrade your buildings, it's as simple as that!

I think the biggest issue isnt the production, as far as active players, but the time/workers/resources needed to upgrade them.

Why would you waste 4 very vaulable workers for 7+ days to upgrade something that doesnt really help you. Most likely anyone up that high is raiding a lot already anyways.

Where its going to become a huge issue and it seems it already has, is for raiding. If people dont upgrade their resource producers then there is less loot to raid.

The game needs a good economy and from the posts ive read, its not good up at atomic age and will only get worse.

People are complaining that players have no incentive to upgrade their farms (payoff is terrible and stupid for the worker time right now), and thus the entire game is stuck with too few upgraded farms. So no individual player has an incentive to upgrade farms, so the entire game is much lower on resources than seems appropriate.

So the deliberate design (you can't just build farms, you have to raid) has gone so far that even if you raid you can't get what you need at some levels without excessive grinding.
