New Ads Factory Is Dumb!

What a waste of time and development in the game! Who came up with this idea! Fire them! 

I got the new Powered by ads factory, and I have been trying to clear my 3 animal feeds in production for 4 days now! - a stupid 24 hour windows in between watching 4 sets of ads, with 1/2 hr run production time, for 6 hour animal feed production’s! STUPID STUPID STUPID! 

AT LEAST PUT THE ADS ON A 24 hour rolling clock! 24 hours after watching ad 1, after watching Ad 2, etc. 

I asked for more factories! At least 1 Clean no pollution nano tech factory per suburb - suggested purple platinum rabbit epic Cog pieces to speed up nano tech factories!

    Another hour gone and still 33 minutes to produce the electric components! Something is drastically wrong here!

    The electric components did eventually finish. My next experiment was for 3 minerals which should take 30 minutes and therefore complete well within the 1 hour. Nope. After 1 hour they still have 20 minutes to go!

    Another hour gone and still 8 minutes 42 seconds to complete 3 minerals!

  • I feel once they fix the glitches it should be interesting to use. I wish it offered to build OMEGA products though. Something different for the extra effort. 

  • Yes, I stored the Ads factory. It wasn’t worth the time or effort to even get 15 plastic pieces in a 1/2 hour.. 3 sets of 9 minutes.. Deleted! (Stored)

    If they are going to limit it to 4 ads a day would it kill them to power it for a reasonable amount of time. In theory it could be a helpful but who every came up the idea fell way short of the mark. Make watching an ad to produce goods worth the time! This needs to be patched quickly!

    I did get 2 adverts per day for 3 slots for 1 hour each advert. This changed to 2 adverts per day for 5 slots for 15 minutes, so you cannot produce minerals that take 30 minutes on 1 day as you lose 30 seconds after it starts getting things going.

    The time, slots and number of adverts a day seems to differ for mayors.
