Time to see the new fisherman

I find myself wondering how the price of fish on the NFL server constitutes a game suggestion

by your own evidence:

fish 3-6 coin, average = 4.5 coin
wheat 12-20 coin, average = 16 coin

Fish farms require no top ups to feed, rebuilding of fields, or silos to waste space on the map.

Yet the fish farm produce 5 fish every 3 mins that's 100 per hour so in 10 hours its = 1k fish worth 4.5 coins, that's 0.45 coins per hour (iv not included traveling times mainly because mine would be different to yours, yours would be different to Topgear and so on.

Farms do require a lot more space either through fields/silos or a combo of both, the rebuild costs of fields, or others may well use top ups on fields, one way or another this has a value depending on how long the player has played for. its a matter of perspective.

A farm produces 5 wheat every 12 mins that's 25 an hour that's 40 hours = 1k, worth 16 coins, that's 0.4 coin per hour

the difference in traveling times with farms getting the benefits (Verses) silo's (wasted space because a silo has a production value of 0), top ups, rebuild costs... calls that about evens. overall the fish farms offers better value per hour than farms.

Although I just dont care enough to work out brew or bread, due to the size of the chains needed and the water/wheat intake i doubt they would offer better than 0.45 an hour.


edit:

totally forgot about lvl 6 farm, lvl 6 farm would = 0.48 per hour on farm, but then if your demolishing your fish farms for it, at what point does it break even on the upgrade costs? Then what if fish farms are the next lvl 6 upgrade? This would turn it on its head yet again..i still don't think for example:

If you have 30 farms + 10/11 imp silos = 40/41 buildings

Or

41 fish farms.

The wheat producing more per hr in coin.


no time now work calls.

I'm curious as to people's views over a year later? I only have a fisherman so that I can complete any daily or quests requiring me to produce fish, I buy all my fish in the TO apart from that, often getting them for about 1 coin/1000. I foresee the same devaluation of bread following the improved production chain (again, I buy bread in bulk in the TO rather than produce it).

i dont buy fish but i see no need to use anything other than fish farms. not so sure bread will fall to much in price as it takes a lot more production that fish
