It is a uncommon drop from windmill, can hold only 2 in inventory. Upgrading the mine costs 20 thousand gold but only increases the rate of earning money by a very small amount. Most the handbooks for final products and the ingredients for them increase the rate of earning money by a lot more than any of the mine upgrades.
It's also my lucky charm. Once I start mining for dollars, I am sure to get a GML -- LOL!
So how much dollars you want to earn with the mine? If you make way more money with the mine you just come back every 2 days and get a buck load of money without doing anything. Farming is meant to be working, if you get money for doing only 1 thing every 2 days where is the point of farming/working?
The money option is just there so that you can continue to work on your Achievement Points cheaply, without having to win (or buy) GMLs to complete the achievement.
The upgrade is there for players who have a surplus of GMLs - it's only useful if you can't use up all the GMLs you have. In that case, it's a great investment with no downsides.
And then there are completionists who like to build
So far, both categories add up to thousands fully leveled up goldmines. It's not for everyone but it has its fans.
Most players do not spend real money on games, they do not get a surplus gold mining licenses because it should be a rare prize, not an excess.
Only very few players are completionists and they would usually focus on the laboratory, lesters stash and matildas farm academy with dollars and use gold on high level handbooks and doghouses before the upgrades that are mostly visual.
The main problem is why do regular licenses make so little money and earn achievement points but nothing else?
Will there be an update that changes the mine so that regular licenses work for players of higher level, that the mine and regular license is used by more players?
If the purpose of the mine upgrades is for gold buyers on prime day, why did they put so much more content on spending real money than other farming games?
That most people don't have the need to upgrade the mine is fine, no feature is there for everyone. Upgrading the mine definitely isn't, it's for people who buy gold, and even among those only on those who use our GML offers.
Video ads as a revenue stream only work in select few games, Big Farm isn't one of them, we have tried already.
We have no plans on adjusting the way the mine or the individual licences work.
PS: did read the whole thread.
It didn't work all the time for all the players loads of bugs so it was discontinued.
Biggest problem (apart from many other problems) was that our computers got flooded with unwanted cookies .... which raised a lot of problems with our own computers. We asked to please stop it, and as they do mostly, GGS listened to their players and stopped the video thingy.
@Meela I appreciate your explanations on mining. They make sense. I just disagree with keeping status quo argument or using status quo as an exuse. Cheers.
GGS didn't stop movies cause they listened to players. Many actually liked that feature a lot especially in long massive testing period and many others who were not lucky to be included in testing were demanding to get it also cause they were missing on gold which we got. I don¨t remember having any problems with my computer due to videos appart from game messed up. GGS discontinued it cause they just couldn't make it work. It was bugged all the time ever since they released the feature for everybody and never worked properly. You don't even need to go to old threads to refresh your memory. Meela here admits that it didn't work in this game.
Then they "made it better" -- very buggy for most, and the rewards weren't as good, so they were discontinued altogether.
That resulted in a huge loss of revenue for GGS, so that seemed to usher in the blatant gold grab we see today.
To use any gold mining license, have at least 2000 gold.
To get the advantage of the gold mining license from the deals, must have at least 3500 gold.
