    I assume this doesn't affect dung per harvest?

    We want to know eggactly what is going on here!

    So far as I can tell, it is only an advantage as it means we can have 4 times more eggs in storage. Obviously this is somehow important for usage on the revamped gourmet farm.

    I hope the increments in the library boost for eggs will be rounded UP after dviding by 4.
    Currently it is 10, 25, 45, 70, 95.
    Hopefully it will become 3, 7, 12, 18, 24.

    As regards to new personal Prime Times, will it be the same as the general Prime Times but given individually instead, or is it completly new stuff like (I hope) a Prime Time that allows a personal visit of the architect for a set period of time - something like 3 days would be good.

    Since these values correlate, they will change accordingly (roughly 25% percent of the current bonus). If rounding is necessary, we will try to round it up in your favor. :)

    No, production times won't change.

    You are right. The amount of dung per harvest will not be changed.

    i don't see any point for this update about eggs honestly other than another prime time ofc. and if you doing it, do it for pigs too, so it not takes another week for that too. pigs stock up fast too. and im assuming both the number of "collected" and "to be collected" eggs for achievement level will be 1/4. otherwise itll be hurtful if one be like 5k short of next achievement and then it resets the counter.
    and hopefully we not losing event this week too due to this right?

    Next week we should have the Asia event.
    As it has been pointed out on the French forum, part of it requires to produce a lot of eggs.
    The French community manager - our dear Cellardoor - answered to that that the event will start only after the update.

    Could nafaru confirm?
    Thanks!

    Farm boosters: "additional amounts of eggs per level will be adjusted" - as rusty asked - to what??????(

    Awesome, i only recently built 4 chicken coops, and the constant full barn became a bit annoying. Thanks, appreciated!

    Game strategy: Make sure your eggs are stocked up to the maximum just before the update. Afterwards you can sell them for 4 times more than you would otherwise.

    Co-op strategy: Start an egg project before the update and collect quarter of the amount required only. Then after the update, the project will be completed.

    Is anyone else wondering what an update on eggs has to do with the gourmet farm? Since only pasta and the omlet use eggs on the gourmet farm this seems to affect the Main Farm mostly and the coop projects there

    Prudence many of the buildings are going from the Gourmet farm and we are getting new buildings, animals and recipes. I'm sure it will be clear why this big change has been made to eggs once we know what the Gourmet re-work involves
  • Prudence5Prudence5 Posts: 10
    edited 06.03.2014
    ok I cannot see one impact on any building or animal on the Gourmet Farm and the receipes are omlet and pasta which hardly seems to warrant such a big change....didn't see anything in all these update announcements that the Main Farm was going through any major changes (did I miss that) and this appears to be a major change to the Main Farm library, projects for coops eggs are huge on the Main Farm which since I am maxed out on eggs in the library I would have held off on doing

    when the achievement about collecting eggs is modified to be 1/4th will it be just the level you are working on and up or will it be modified from level 0 up

    My immediate thought as I read about the update was …. I hope they make the adjustments to the Asian Event's egg task, before the event starts and not forget to make the change and have us collect the 9 000 + eggs with the quarter amount of eggs we will now be producing.

    Thank you, it sounds lovely to not have barns filling up non stop every single rotation of chickens :3

    I guess you missed the in-game announcement of changes to the gourmet farm? There will be ducks and duck eggs.

    The update may be needed because we are going to also produce duck eggs after the GF update. They may lump together under "eggs" and we will certainly need the room.

    Will the egg boosters also affect duck egg production?

    If you have screens shots of that I wouldnt mind reading those because I totally missed any information on changes that would affect the Main Farm, the library, the coop projects etc etc

    Seems to me it would be easier to change the number of eggs we can store if this is all because of the addition of ducks one change vs all these adjustments.

    If i read the announcement correctly , there is no reference about readjustment of event quantities. As in ''fairy tale'' event, there is a task of supplying 6090 eggs, is this going to change accordingly ? With 1/4 of current egg production , such tasks would take a long time....
    As for increasing egg's price, i couldn't be happier :) :thumbsup:
