Schools - Why are you Useless?

[johnny_nubcak3]

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.

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.

In the long run it'll be pretty useful. Not a quick fix by any means and I'm glad that I got one.

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.

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.
