Reduce mission time from 30 to 15 minutes

TMKC (IN1)

It's boring to sit at 0 for 30 minutes ... And there are many who sit at 0 .

All current missions can be played in 15 minutes.

Only more special seeds , seaweeds, gold will be spent. That should be music to GGS ears.

Exxy (INT1)

Sitting at 0 is pretty bad

You know how i do most of my points, I'm currently #8 on overall RP's

I do lots of missions, do harvest as much as possible, reaching shelving points, and when its not possible, harvesting maximum possible

15 minutes would not give me, or many players, enough time to meet shelving requirements. 30 minutes works just fine

I like the 15 min idea....

i am just asking but if the mission was only 15min why would you need to shelve? i mean the whole reason you shelve is so you can go to the next and hope you have a better one so a 15min one would save you the time it might take to get enough to shelve but personally i would be ok with it either way

I am a crop farmer more than stables. I prefer to get crop missions. My shelving for alfalfa is over 11K. The more you go above your shelving requirement the higher your rep points. If it were only 15 minutes I would not score as well as I do.  I shelve stable missions quickly in hopes of a filed mission. The stackmaster is there for those who wish to shelve early

ijrosh (US1)

if you use gold you can use the stack master for 2 hours but most will go with the hour or 30min then only if you have a fully upgraded one you have to wait 8 hours before you can activate it again so no you cant really use the stack master much  if you have it maxed it is possible to activate 3 times a day but i am not sure how many people actually have it fully upgraded

TMKC (IN1)

Good idea to half the shelving point too ... If mission time is halved to 15 minutes

TMKC (IN1)

Or maybe keep mission at 30 minutes but reduce shelving point by 75 %

TMKC (IN1)

Or allow 5 simultaneous missions that can be played at 1 time ...

Or just 2 ... Like extra construction slot, an extra mission slot ...

I would be happy to play 2- 3 different mission windows at once ... If a choice is given

This way more rps can made in less time.

I can give 1-2 hrs time per day to the game full focused per day.

Now, GGS can give me 4 missions or 40 ... The gold spending will be less in 4 ... More in 40 .. but the time spent on the game is limited.

People cannot play 10 hrs a day and finish 20 mission of 30 minutes each... But they can play simultaneous missions in 2-3 hours and overall total amount of missions they play like this could be more than 20 per day on average.

The odds of players spending gold or seaweed increases with increased number of missions played per day

Mine is fully upgraded. I usually only activate it when I get dung missions. Especially back to back...ugh

Agreed! One mission at a time is enough (not counting whatever is shelved)

Wow ... Didn't realise it ... Hahaha

I guess we need more VF then .... And less CC ...

I personally could do without the VF. I have more quick fertilizer than I will use. Other members of my coop enjoy it, and it is optional.  If the prizes were better... a reduction in the CC is definitely in order though.

I don't really like the idea of 15 minutes since it doesn't work that well for a lot of missions, especially rutabaga, since before we could get 3 harvests in one mission, but now we would only be able to get 1. It would also probably become more about using gold or seaweed to collect items faster which would most likely be unpopular with most players.

Dark Underworld (AU1)

I would actually prefer mission time to go from 30mins to 0mins

@xAlleycatx (AU1)
Only 11k?
For me it says 12638 alfalfa

Rocky123 (IN1)

It is boring to play 30 minutes really . Better at 15 minutes . It is dumb to wait 30 minutes even with stack master on in milk,egg missions where people duck at 0 till we shelve and then try to cross duhhhh.
Rutabaga ,corn missions can be removed , both are missions which gives really less rps compared to others .

Wf, dung , alfa, milk,eggs,feed all can be done in 15 minutes . And shelving point can be reduced to the amount u can collect in 13.5 minutes instead of the current 27 minutes now

This will greatly help people who dont want to play CC more than 2 hours a day with stack and for others too who can play throughout the day , they can do more missions

I don't have all my fields to level 10 yet

Kimmiecat (NL1)

I already hate missions but play some for the building coins.

But I would hate it even more when they are reduced to 15 minutes......so please, leave it as is.

Seeker1 (US1)

I vote for 30 minute missions.

I'd like to see a variety of times for all the main farm crops. A way to choose which times you would like to take part in. Starting with 35 mins so we can use the field skins boosters with some effectiveness.

@Data King (US1) You mean like original set up, which I found a lot better than this format, it needed some work, but overall it was better
