Someone's probably mentioned this already, but - was the cost multiplier on the car washes, pizzas and donuts increased recently? I don't recall them costing more at 400 than oil rigs do at 500.

Would be nice to be able to see your exact number of Angel Investors... My spreadsheet calculations become somewhat inaccurate being able to see only the 4-6 front digits...

@sant0088 what's the point in playing if getting 900 of everything was obtainable pretty much within a day after the update released..? If it were me, I would've hard reset if I could obtain 900 of everything that quickly. The whole point of games like this is that "treadmill" aspect and feeling like you're progressing. Before the nerf, my lemonade stands were pulling in almost 90% of my total income... How is that balanced? TL;DR don't complain because an unbalanced game got balanced. If you got 900 of everything you pretty much beat it already.
It's fixed! Well, sort of. We added another upgrade that will restore the factor by which the game was slowed (Look for the new upgrade near the bottom of your list).

Is it possible that the speed went down ? The oil company was taking less than that before I restart (500+ in everything again.....)

just thinking... there's the upgrades and managers, might be nice to have something like executives and micromanagers, you know, responsible for the diversification of the brands/types of lemonade/papers/etc... just thinking, anyway having loads of fun with this one

What I love about it is the fact that I do not need to stick to one computer to progress in the same game :D All idle games should be like that. Well done !

I too will be quitting with the latest nerf on lemonade stands. It was difficult enough to get 900 of everything but now it is pretty much impossible. Very very disappointed that you went and listened to some "hardcore capitalists"

I'm running 1.30 according to settings -> info. What's the current one, because it seems offline, I don't earn any money anymore.

Ya, the AIs seem to be rolling in a lot lot slower with the update. With it taking sextillions of AI to still not get 900s in less than an hour, and them accruing so slowly, this may be a problem, since I was still looking at 100s of hours to get to 900 (quadirillions to sextillion is a lot of 000s). You want me to check in a few times a day... right? You might be better off keeping the growth curve up and just adding on every once in a while, lol... Otherwise, some days I still look at idle mine.

I hope you don't slow the game because you want to oblige people to buy the Kred-upgrades if they want to earn more...

So now that income has been nurffed drastically by at least 10x. I have realized that most building costs have also jumped up by atleast 10x if not 25x on some.

Concerning SquishiBishie's idea to add an achievement for 'All Upgrades Purchased' I would suggest a different approach. Add a tab that shows all upgrades done, but only show upgrades that can still be completed in the upgrades section. That might even stop the glitching that sometimes happens with the upgrade list and it will eliminate the need to scroll that long list. Keep up the good work!!

Prompt response and prompt resolution to missing kred multiplier. Amazing customer service, and fun game. Back to +5 rating it goes. ♥

I agree about it being wrong to put the oil company achievement at 900 newspaper. To get back to pre-nerf that'd mean you'd need over 362 quindecillion. I can only got to duodecillions and at a push a few tredecillion.
Even 800 all costs over 300 tredecillion.
This is using the upgrades for +50 and +10 too.

i red in the comments that the upgradelist is a little bit confusing. My suggestion is for each just one button. For example the lemonade stand ( my favorite building) you have one butte with the first upgrade for $250,000 after upgrading this button "disappear ad a new button with the next price $20 Trillion "appear". so you get a shorter list and you can see much better if you missed somethink.

Offline mode is not working for me after the latest update. Am I the only one with this problem? Also I think after the nerf my progress is very slow, which decreases the motivation of playing this game. If you're going to keep this last update (decreasing lemonade stand value) than I'd like to see more End Game stuff, because with almost 1 quadrillion AI it's getting tedious and boring. Thanks for reading :)

I'm not sure if this is a mistake or not, but the costs of the lower-tier items, such as a Pizza Delivery Service exceed that of the higher-tier items such as an Oil Company. This happens for every item. It costs more to get 10 Newspaper Stands than to get 10 Car Washes, and 10 Car Washes cost more to get 10 Pizza Service, and so on all the way to the Oil Company,making the Oil Company cheaper than all the other items. The only thing unaffected is the Lemonade Stand, which always remains the cheapest of all the items. Also, keep in mind this is from the same initial value. From 300 to 310 in an Oil Company is less expensive than 300 to 310 in the Bank, which is less than 300 to 310 in the previous items. I generally thought that the higher tier items would remain more expensive than the others. I'm not sure if this is a glitch or it just exists in the game to make it more difficult.

i am making 1/10 of what i was before the reset and i increased my angel investors by over 10 times what they were before reset.

The 11x bonus to Oil Rigs from the Newspaper is dumb. 900 newspapers is the LAST thing you'll get but behind it is the much needed boost now that lemonade has been nerfed. Basically, by the time you get it, you don't need it. Also, I'm stuck around 700 for all and my profits and AI have PLUMMETED. Not fun. Guess I'll just check back once a day now that offline bug is fixed. I used to keep and eye on it all day.

Offline calcuations have always worked perfectly for me, but now when they are "fixed" i dont get any cash after being offline at all :/

my 9 other businesses has higher income rate combined vs the oil company which has a high payout but too slow... maybe balance it (oil company) a bit please?

50x would be sufficient as opposed to 100x. However I will say that the lemon nerf is making it very slow. Resetting it weekly is not a good thing. Maybe the hard core people are already "there" and do not want others catching up to them or maybe even making it to the endgame for the first time (I have always pretty much failed by a small amount to reach the end each time the game got expanded).

What we saw was 'big oil' lobbying the game-changers to ensure that they would remain the main profit center... the game stays true to its name even in the development cycle.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
the problem with the nerf is that you are gaining so little now that to reach a decent amount of AI (compared to what you have) you would have to reset every few days instead of every hours, making the game waaay slower and kinda ruining what made it fun (checking often and always being able to do something)
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I have to agree with previous comments, having the lemonade stands nerfed has made completing this game relatively possible to a fleeting dream. Anyone else know how to get 900 newpapers? I was just hitting 500 before the nerf. I do not even wanna think about it after the patch. Will not be resetting any time soon, will not continue with the game until other future updates.

It may be too late or too drastic of a suggestion, but instead of scrolling through all of those upgrades, couldn't you just click the upgrade, and like purchasing a new stand/boat/etc, the price of the upgrade goes up?

one awesome thing about this game is that you can sit by your computer reading a book, and simply check on everything periodically
>9000/10 definately

So, paid 10 kreds for x3. Mainly was to show support. But now it's gone, and is supposed to be perm? Changed rating to 1 for false advertising. Will rerate after kred multiplier fixed, or kreds refunded.
This is definitely a bug - some players are actually experiencing a server delay on some of their purchases. We're not sure if this is on our end, or on Kongregate, but we will definitely address this to your satisfaction.

From a cost/anything perspective while I understand a more expensive resource should yield more money, the skew between them turns out to be pretty exponential, not even flat, so... Really upgrading anything other than the oil once you get it is a waste (except the passive faster-harvesting part)
