I understand that they changed the time for missions..... but what is regular time now.

 

I have a 50% booster and team has a 20% booster.  I am looking at my missions and they now range from 14 to 4 minutes for them and even the rewards are not worth it.  Is there something wrong...It appears to longer for them than before they added the team booster.

 

Then I have missions that are 18 minutes and most of those are the ones that gives deeds.  This seems a bit ridiculous to have any boosters and not worth doing missions at all.   If the mission is 18 minutes with that, this means that without a booster it is over 30 minutes for the mission and that is 1/2 of your original energy.

Doesn't sound like your mission boosters are on.  I have both the individual and the team missions boosters and most of my missions are 1 or 2 minutes.

The length of missions has been adjusted with the latest update, in fact it's not possible to find extremely short missions anymore.

 

Also, the rewards have been adjusted in order to get a bigger amount of xp and coins.

It makes me feel like I'm not using my booster anymore I dont like have 18 or 19 minute missions if I have a 50% booster on. I liked the old amount of time I had from 12 minutes - 2 minutes this is now upsetting.

I agree.  I am using donuts for the 50% booster.  If now with that I still have to take 18 minutes for a mission, what is the sense in having the booster, 18 minutes versus 25..... not like this is saving much and really I don't see the benefit for doing those missions.

I've had missions that are 14 minutes long but with over 100k coins the rewards have gone up. There's plenty of missions to choose from, not everyone will have a high coin ratio. That's how the game has always been.

Ok, I do believe I read something about this in the patch notes. 

 

• We changed the duration of missions considering boosters and team boosters, so no extremely short missions show up anymore. The rewards, however, will still be dependend on the basic duration of the mission, without boosters.

Translation: You can buy mission boosters for your team with donuts to shorten the duration. But to compensate for this we made the missions longer. Because, you know once your  Clubhouse is built, there is not a lot of ways to get a team to spend donuts. But to be fair, I did not notice that missions were exceptionally longer than usual, myself.

hi all :)

i may explain it at least from what i felt, i see that the rate of missions remained unchanged, in other words, Exp/ Energy & Coins/ Energy

are same as before, which means the benefits from missions are unchanged, BUT

instead of making boosters effect missions' time which means a 24 min mission with 50% mission booster + 20% team booster = 7 mins

with same amount of exp & coins !!! please pay attention on the last thing I said, SAME amount of exp and coins but much shorter missions.

 

now the effect of mission booster is changed instead of affecting its time only with keeping the amount of exp & coins unchanged,

they made it to affect the amount exp and coins MAINLY with almost unchanged missions' time or better say very small range of variation so the 24 mins missions is now 14 with 70% booster but with very unusual amount of exp and coins (just to make it clear, it's double what you used to find :P),

 

sure you all noticed the improvement in the exp & coins amount, nobody didn't :D

just a hint: what does really matter that you all should even care about is the missions' rate (smug)

after re-activating the 50% mission booster I've noticed the substantial amount in growth when it comes to both coins and exp rewards.

 

The most amount of coins I ever got was nearing the 100k mark (with 10-12 minute missions) and just yesterday I stumbled across a coin reward amount of a whopping 175k coins (18 minute mission) I almost fell off my chair LOL.

 

Although it's not as noticeable, the exp rates has risen as well. The highest reward ratio i would see would be like faith said 3,000 exp for a 3 minute HARD FIGHT mission. And as we all know they give about double the percentage worth as easy fight and time missions. But with this update, I'm seeing this kind of ratio even in time missions. and the best I've seen for a hard fight mission would be almost double that! - 2 minutes with roughly 4k exp as a reward.

 

Also the time allocated for these missions doesn't really change between boosters, so you won't be finding 30 minute missions on a 25%/10%/blank booster. the percentage taken off is more towards the amount of your rewards then it is time taken off. But yes, time is still taken off...just not as much as what it used to be to stop players from doing 1 minute missions... 

 

Also is it just me or is it harder to find 3 minute missions with a 50% booster now?  :S
