Morning all. BF has picked my 3 worst days of the year to launch updates... sigh.
Tons and tons of glitches...
New chat - Terry did a great job pointing out all the features. If you look up any player, you can send them a PM or mute/unmute. You can also click on the profile pick inside the chat to pull up the player profile.

Production Boosts - if you go back to the ads, subscription, packages income model... who really needs their chicken feed to come out faster? The really big competitive farms. Only available through packages and rewards... this is not going to be for the common farmer. And for $5, you will needed to get 90 cow feed boosters (10 per bag) to beat gold. If you are in the position that you need your cow feed done 15% faster, you are already spending money on the game OR you have much deeper problems that production boosts won't fix.
If Big Farm was trying to help the average farmer, fix the mill imbalance or make the game play better, they would have add mills level 11 and 12, upgraded with bricks and tiles, not added more pay to play features.
But hey... you can now buy speed boost for mills weekends...
You can get them as rewards or buy them. They have a package up, and I will breakdown the gold equivalent tonight (hopefully).
Cafe - Level 6 and 7 unlocked!
Level 6 - 32,000 nails, 44,000 boards, 8000 saws
Level 7 - 56,000 nails, 86,000 boards, 2900 mallets
You can upgrade a cafe level at any time. The only thing upgrading does is increase how high you can level your recipes.
Your thresholds are rewards go up the day after (when the cafe resets) you hit level 50,60,67, 70, 80, 90. Because the update was done after the cafe reset this morning, it is safe to assume tomorrow your thresholds will go up.
The thresholds did not increase ?!? There is no real benefit in spending materials to increase the cafe to level 6 or 7. Level 7 will take 22 months to see a positive return on the mallets invested.
By spending 88,000 nails, 130,000 boards, 8,000 saws, 2900 mallets, you will save yourself 21 honey, or no honey per day in recipe prep.
Want to expand? Is it worth waiting an additional 2 months to collect the 8000 saws so you can upgrade the cafe? 2900 mallets... save 21 honey per day. 21 honey is 4.2 mallets from glazed fish or 690 days to pay off the investment!
More breakdown when I get a chance.
