    Why do apple turnovers sell for less than the goods required to make them????

    Seriously, wth?

    How does that even begin to make sense?

    What is interesting about this upgrade is that you can now see what players use gold extensively. There are some out there with almost complete new gourmet farms. Maybe they got the 100% gold offer - unlike me! Think I might spend dollars on upgrading flower farm and forget about GF until I'm making enough to build it up.

    when i produce apple turnover i obtains 38500$ for 175
    if i sell my egg and apple i will get 42000

    loss

    Hey Prince Krishna2,

    this is due to the fact that your cooperative has already finished most of the researches to improve sell prices of main farm products.
    You will now either have to upgrade your bakery or do some gourmet farm research on apple turnovers to gain more money. ;)

    Regards, Steffi

    if i have the quote correct "you'll receive a 50% reduction in building time".either this is one more thing not ggs didn't explain completely or it was a non truth told.i looked a the upgrade time on the cabin on the new gourmet farm, and guess what it's roughly the same time that was required on main farm.how is that a reduction? 7 days will no way be enough time,to get this new farm at a operating level we had for old farm.unless of course we push with GOLD. get the picture players.just like the happiness,it's a business decision not to make game more challenging.so next time just tell the truth."we ggs need to make changes because we need and want more money". see that wasn't hard.then i will feel at least i was told the truth.

    I totally agree with you on this....i wish people would open their eyes and stop been fooled by this new update with GGS spinning it as been the next best thing since sliced bread when all it really is is to get people to buy more gold so that they can speed up the construction time double quick.....why couldn't we just have had another farm and put all the new things in there....that way everyone would have been happy.......

    by the way, my coop lost between 4-8 researches. and although i have +20% for the apple turnover, the cost of the ingridients is way higher than th cos of the product(10K loss)

    Lame.
    We're supposed to spend money on research to make a building break even with stuff we are already selling?
    It's lame.

    Almond muffins the same. 49400 from bakery, lvl 1 individual is 50750 but level 7 you only make 42825 so 7k every 8 hours or so of growing the produce

    does the construction time work on all farms i am just going to run my main farm and flower farm (if i can) and leave the gourmet farm out its not my thing.

    Just tried this with a level 7 bakery and it is still more profitable to sell eggs and apples seperately. Then checked the fruit cake with cream and level 1 bakery £248k vs individually £273.5k BUT with a level 7 bakery £248k vs £232,475 so after spending millions on upgrades I can make 16k each run of fruit cake with cream. How are we supposed to save up enough for the land costs on this farm? Or is the gourmet farm now just a dung producer


    Thanks, I won't build that expletive expletive expletive bakery at all then! Money saved! No need to ever expand that farm then (not that I could now).

    Incredibly, this GF Downgrade is even worse than people htought.

    all the things in GF is nice. but that reduction of xps for main farm is bad :(:( expansions doesn't give much XPs now :(

    When you factor in the 5% increase for Research the Apple Turnover is $40425

    That's still a loss over selling them separately

    So..........Gourmet Farm is a money sink.......

    Lots to like (so big thanks!) but if I've done my sums right at the moment the most profit I could make on any of the bakery goods is around $19000 for the fruit cake with cream, assuming zero production costs which are no longer possible. I'm wondering is the bakery worth it at all? Goodbye Marzipan ice cream: I didn't know how much I'd miss you until now!

    In the description for a goat stable it says that goats eat byproduct of almod orchard (same as before update). If I understood correctly
    the food changed, so this is probably a bug.

    Yep, aaabbb1, this is a bug.
    You can only feed your goats with goat feed, as there leaves and twigs are no longer available.

    EXCITED about the new stuff, BUT... I feel really cheated on my time! Cutting the building time in half was nice, but it should have been cut even further or you could have put the new buildings in storage that would have been equal to what we had already built. That way we could have just place them instead of waiting again.

    Dosgrace:
    (lelvel 7 bakery)(maxed researches) 175 apple turnovers*230=40,250
    maxed researches: 510 apples*56 + 635 egs* 20= 41,260
    the profit(-100% production costs) is - 1010
    even for new players whithou coops, it doesnt pay off to buy it, because if the insane productin costs/pure profit ratio

    Well, well, well, we aren't so excited about redoing the gourmet farm now are we? Have we awakened only to find out that it's going to take forever to rebuild, and while we're rebuilding we aren't going to make money. I knew I'd be reading nothing but complaints when this thing happened.

    Hey Erfan_Zigma,

    those seeds should still be there (you can see them in the seed selection menu of your fields), but some are not shown correctly in the farm management window.
    This has already been forwarded to the developers, though... so this should be fixed in the near future. Until then, please check the seed selection window of your fields. ;)

    Regards,
    Steffi

    You haven't included the research that increases the "yield" by 20% so it actually produces 210 turnovers with maxed researches.

    Just woke up and so excited, it was worth the wait! Everything's so fun and there's lots of stuff to do and upgrade now :3
    The goods transferring and especially the new farm management layout are a HUGE plus, thank you so much! Always wanted to know how many special seeds I have without having to have an empty field to check it ^-^/
    And and it's awesome to be able to see all produce and products in one section in stead of having to check every farm's own page separately to sell extra produce from each farm!

    I'm so happy, best update ever, we're all really excited and some in my co-op are even using the reduced construction time bonus to knock out a few important upgrades on the main farm they've been putting off~ Couldn't have asked for more, super happy! \^-^/

    Its not that we are not going to be making anything whilst rebuilding, its more that we wont be making anything/pittance after we have rebuilt
