I have gone beyond 100 million CPS, but since they updated it to have fancy graphics I haven't seen the horrible tiled flashing grandma background return and the game is way less cool without that.

You need about 500billion or something in the bank in order to get the full chain

No you don't.

Besides, this wasn't about a full chain, this was about a chain breaking after a single golden cookie click. Which can only happen with a chain of 4 or lower if you miss a cookie.

If I wait for Quintillion Fingers my CPS will hit 649.845.039,5.

If I buy 2 time machines plus a grandma (costs roughly the same), it'll hit 610.837.949.5 instead. I guess Quintillion is worth the 26 hour wait.

Orteil said doing that with proper backgrounds and poo poo would look bad. He also said that flashing grandma icons are a possibility though, so who knows.

You should not be able to get 7.4 trillion cookies immediately upon starting the game, that would completely ruin the fun of slowly building. Besides, unless he completely changes that section of code (rather than just put giving of cookies after the check, which is what he'll probably do), the chain wouldn't break until after you got a chain cookie that put you past 1.5*Bank. So all that's necessary for a full chain would be 444.4... billion :colbert:

Found this on Friday, been running nonstop since.

Stats as of a few seconds ago:

Cookies in bank : 140,722,691,119
Cookies baked (all time) : 10,226,456,823,097
Buildings owned : 898
Cookies per second : 175,907,512.4 (multiplier : 293.3%)
Cookies per click : 7,060,334.7
Cookie clicks : 18,934
Hand-made cookies : 32,856,085,401
Golden cookie clicks (which also counts blood cookies, interestingly enough): 25

I'm only buying 100 of each building type, cause frankly everything that isn't a Portal or a Time Machine isn't worth it, and the only reason Portals are still worthwhile is cause they're considerably cheaper to buy than Time Machines and can still produce CPS in the millions. Really, Cursors, Grandmas, Portals and Time Machines are the only things worth getting more than 100 of, mostly because the stacking upgrades for each are really, really good at getting really high CPS. Time Machines are easily the best but they start stupidly expensive and get only moreso as the game goes on, so it's often the choice between waiting to get a Time Machine later or getting several dozen other things now.

Course, now I'm at the point where everything is so stupidly expensive that I'll probably only check in once a day to buy a couple of Portals/Time Machines or whatever upgrades I can afford, then sitting back and waiting for the cookies to get back up to the trillions again. I've only got six achievements left, half of which are building a whole bunch of really expensive poo poo.

EDIT: Stats have changed since I accidentally closed my tab, reopened it and got a free Kitten upgrade, which is supposed to be 9 Trillion cookies. So now my stats look like this:

Cookies in bank : 66,818,204,373
Cookies baked (all time) : 10,517,092,716,543
Buildings owned : 901
Cookies per second : 275,780,389.4 (multiplier : 452.8%)
Cookies per click : 11,055,282.4
Cookie clicks : 18,934
Hand-made cookies : 32,856,085,401
Golden cookie clicks : 27

I just increased my CPS by 100 million with a free kitten upgrade :stare:

Golden/blood cookies only spawn in the area you can see, so making the window small won't cause you to lose those precious spawns. I typically just minimize the window and watch the thumbnail.

Aren't chains only from blood cookies, so you won't see them until you've already made billions? I don't remember how much One Mind cost but it's not exactly the start of the game.

Blood cookies raise the chance of a chain occurring cca tenfold, it's not impossible to get it from ordinary cookies.

You can get chains from gold cookies once you have at least 100.000 cookies baked (all time). The chance is ridiculously low though, like .6% or something IIRC.

Dear diary, I got another erection today at work. SO embarrassing, but kinda hot. The CO asked me to fix up his dress uniform. I had stayed late at work to move his badges 1/8" to the left and pointed it out this morning. 1SG spanked me while the CO watched, once they caught it. Tomorrow I get to start all over again...

So using that spreadsheet it apparently takes 127 Trillion cookies to go from 99->100 Time machines. With my 527 megacookies, that would take 67 hours alone (with no bonuses). It is the only achievement I have left but drat I think I might have to stop clicking on cookie now even if it means disobeying the grandmatriarch

You should be getting like 6 times as much from golden cookies as you're getting from regular production at that point.

Ostensibly, do whatever you think is best/most fun. It is a game after all.

Alternatively, you can use this spreadsheet to optimize your buying.

Aw, he changed the way cursors look too :smith:

E: hopefully he adds in paths for the player to take. I think he said on his tumblr that the other end of the spectrum would have something to do with the kittens. It'd be neat to invest in one choice or another for unique upgrades later on

At 7 and 21 you get upgrades that each make them last twice as long and appear twice as often (so 4x overall).
Then chains also each count toward them so they start to add up fast.

After you get 7, you get an upgrade that increases the frequency, and another at 27, at which point they usually appear every few minutes.

Current ones in there:

This is in the comments:
//var test=new Game.Dungeon('Factory');
//you guys will have to be a little patient, this is a huge one

There are golden cookie upgrades that appear after 7 and 27 golden cookie clicks. Each one makes golden cookies appear twice as often and last twice as long.
