I'm Fed Up!
Donna Rush
This is an article I tried to post on the eRep forum, but couldn’t even though I was logged in. It said that I wasn’t.
Right!
I getting tired of people reading the first couple of words of a post and then making wild assumptions, usually wrong.
People need to read things through three or four times, THINK about it and MAKE SURE THEY UNDERSTAND before they comment.
Everyone is bitching and moaning about wanting refunds for their raw materials companies because they are now worthless, and can’t be upgraded.
Why the heck would you want to upgrade?
For example, grain farms will become fisheries, of the same 10 gold value.
Fisheries will give you 40 units of BASIC production.
A Q5 hunting lodge will give you only 100 units of BASIC production.
Three fisheries will cost you 30 gold and give you 120 units of BASIC production.
A much better value, no?
NOWHERE was it said that productivity levels will change.
As for storage, with my 15 present companies, I should be able to manage with the basic storage unit. Don’t forget the units produced will be about half of the present. I plan on getting another small storage when I increase my companies in the very near future.
With a good plan and a proper mix of balanced companies, unless you are stockpiling, you shouldn’t need a large storage.
Remember the change for raw materials from six reduced to one to produce one finished product. We survived that pretty well, didn’t we?
People, make sure of ALL the facts and details before you comment wildly in all directions about anything.
Let the flaming begin.

Sure, Donna ~ I will calm down.
You have to admit - that chart McMatty posted looked quite alarming when you read it out of context with the migrations and company values.
At this point I am very skeptical of trying to estimate what production levels will be or how storage limits will come into effect, since plans have changed so radically in the last month.
Weren't they saying we required 1 of each resource (RM type) to build a Q5 product, yet now that has been removed I think? (actually, I can't be sure until the changes come into effect)
Okay, it seems Plato already answered that question of mine:

Those are buildings which will produce food raw materials (FRM) or weapons raw materials (WRM). In order to produce food, you need FRM and in order to produce weapons, you need WRM. You do not need 5 different types of buildings in order to produce food or weapons."
@Plugson, I wasn't aiming at anyone in particular. The original post I wanted to make on the eRep forum was mainly targetted at the hoards of people who post there who don't have English as a first language.
With 2 fisheries, it costs 20 wellness to work for 100 FRM.
With 1 hunting lodge, it costs 10 wellness to work for 100 FRM.
For people wanting to be efficient, it is a much better value.
But you are right that it's not as big of a deal as some people are making it out to be.
Very valid point Donna o7

ranting is fun.
What Kronos said.
Additionally you have to consider the cost of land. $1,000.00 for one building vs $2,000.00 for two. I haven't factored this into your calculations but combine that with the health aspect (not a big deal as 10 health is relatively inexpensive, but still an added cost) and the "value" gap might close a lot more.
