I did not purchase the Gold Pass last time. I was very conflicted and I still am, as I have never paid money due to the fear of losing my steady stream of video ads. I make approximately 20 Tcash per day and 12,000 coins per day with the video man. Over a 30 day period that is about 600 Tcash and 360,000 coins. I would not make that back simply by buying the Gold Pass. For me, the decision to purchase would be based on the perks this time around, specifically the Generous Market (which I personally had not seen before), the Barn Expansion, the Factory Upgrade, and the Land Expansion, plus a decoration or skin that I really like. All of those combined might make me risk losing the video man for a month. But it still scares me!
If I do buy the Gold Pass, my strategy is pretty simple:
- Wait to upgrade the barn from now until that task pops up. Then use the free barn upgrade as soon as possible when your tools are depleted.
- When I get the generous market reward, add the Busy Trade booster that cuts the dealer's time in half and buy ore every half hour to stock up.
- When I get to the 40% helicopter bonus, add the Generous customer booster and send off as many high value helicopters as possible.
- Until the event starts I am working on upgrading coin value on factories I know give high coin amounts in the helicopter orders (Tailor Shop, Perfume Factory, Beverage Factory, Candy Factory, and Shoe Factory). This will be beneficial for the Double Reward Event that starts in 37 days too.
- Obviously, use the extra barn space to stock up for helicopter orders and run high-dollar factory orders.
You could run plantsx2 or factory reduction time to stock your spacious barn as well, but that's also a lot of work to keep up with and I think I am still worn out from Industrial Boom. zzzzzzzzz
