I dont know if theres already another thread about this but i just want to ask...
Why are the schools so useless?!
2 hours to make ONE settler? Cannot be buffed, cannot be upgraded?!
Seems pretty useless to me lol.

It's 1/8th of an unbuffed level 5 bakery (and its supporting materials). It's not horrible.
Seems pretty horrible
so what would the benefit be in getting a school house
The benefit of the school house would 12 more free settlers per day to complement the 96 you'd get from an unbuf'd Mayor's house.Quote:

Schools are useless in real life, why should they have any value in game?
i would spend 1 space for lvl 3 bakery to get 3-4 settlers with the production in 2 hours period. If i upgrade this bakery to lvl 5 and buff it will be enough bread production for 10 settlers. Why would i get school for 500 pumpkins and soon in the market will be 750 gems(i saw at test server's shop). I wish this school more useful and produce as fast as mayor house. 1 settlers per 15 minutes ( even this is too long) would be reasonable and people make more units to play. More units more adventures and more time to spend online in the game. This is the business you want your customers stay in the store. When don't have settlers, troops then i turn of the game and play other games. My suggestion is 1 school produce 1 settler in 15 minutes, we should upgrade it until lvl 5 and should be able to buff it. If i can then i would play and connect this game longer. Chance to spend real money correlated the time you spend in store and level of enjoyment of the game.
1 bakery is also going to cost you 6 other licenses
water well and wheatfield not cost any license. Pls dont give people wrong information. need farm and mill ( if you buy some flour then you dont need any license at all) when you try to say something pls research first then post. think 2 times and say 1 time if you are sure.Quote:

and the schools are really useless, 500 pumpkins can buy 6 zombies that are way more useful :)
3 schools produce 36 settlers a day, the mayors itself produces 96
even the mayors production is useless after a certain level, i just count with bread to make the settlers
Im pretty sure you got the wrong guy to call out as giving wrong information ... not everyone wishes to spend time in trade office looking for resources to make sure their island stays productive and my information was spot on given the production ratios for bakersQuote:

this depends on what you put the zombies on and at what cost you purchased your pumpkins atQuote:

If it wouldnt cost anything ( space, pumpkins and gem) then i wouldnt mind to have 3 or more. And one more thing it is not 1 space actually it takes 1 and half space on the island. They should make little better buildings or those works better..

Well.. I got 3 Schools considering I can't get the Grim reaper... and Silos, Not interesting in them as of right now. I dont mind the 36 Extra Settlers a day compare to 96 Settlers...
I do hope they plan on making them upgradable soon and also able to buff them with something.... Would need about 8 Schools to make them equal to the Mayors house.
sir, the settlers must finish tests, quizzes, and in classroom activities that's why it takes 2hrs!
hell, i got a subject that's 3hrs!lol
I think the point was, if you have a bakery, by the supply chain with it you need 2 mills and 4 farms of the same level to keep it running properly. The bakery chain is 7 buildings. Your method to avoid having to spend all those licenses is helpful, though.Quote:
