We simply don't understand the forces at work here on the cosmological scale, but it's certainly possible to predict the catastrophic ramifications of adding a universe worth of mass to our planet. It'd destabilize the whole solar system, cause our satellites to crash out of the sky, make standing upright on the Earth's surface pretty much impossible without breaking your legs and, ultimately, the earth will spontaneously begin fusing cookies which due to the low hydrogen/helium content would promptly result in a cookienova. The only sane course of action is an immediate moratorium on cookie clicking until we can find a way to disperse the added mass across the universe.

But if I had another scheme, I think I know enough of fate To say that to drown in cream Would then await Spiffo fucked around with this message at 18:49 on Aug 27, 2013 |

gggiiimmmppp posted:That raises other important cosmological quandaries; at some point you'd exceed the mass of dark matter, halting and reversing the expansion of the universe. If we're going down this road, we should seek cookie equillibrium, nothing more, or we'll wind up in the awkward situation of having to export cookies or import dark cookies (ugh) to prevent the big crunch endgame. Not all of the cookies counted exist in this universe. Many of them still exist in separate cookieverses. Rather, the counter signifies the number of cookies discovered, packed and housed right outside the portals of other cookieverses, waiting to be brought into ours. Poop and gold from defective factories are shipped into these cookieverses, and cookies are brought out.

How would you go about beating this game in the shortest amount of time, and with the fewest clicks possible? I'm not sure how you'd define 'completed', or what is considered a click or not, whether that's just on the cookie, or including using the interface.

I'm not sure how you'd define 'completed', or what is considered a click or not, whether that's just on the cookie, or including using the interface. I tried to totally nerd out and figure it up. I might be totally off, but here's some loose numbers anyway. Here's a chart (calculated as a mix of the numbers on the first page combined with some findings of my own based on my current game that by the way include the first 26 upgrades so it's nowhere near accurate, but I think the basic gist is there): clicker 1 cps grandma 2 cps farm 2.5 cps (1.25x more productive than 1 grandma) factory 10 cps (4x more productive than 1 farm) mine 40 cps (4x more productive than 1 factory) shipment 100 cps (2.5x more productive than 1 mine) alchemy lab 400 cps (4x more productive than 1 shipment) portal 8,332 cps (20.83x more productive than one lab) time machine 98,765 cps (11.8x more productive than 1 portal) My thinking is that you click the most expensive option every time it comes up until the thing one tier less productive below it becomes cheaper per CPS. On the other side, don't go for the thing above the highest tier you've already built until its CPS is cheaper per cookie spent by the ratio as shown above. So in other words, let's say you start the game with enough cookies to buy an Alchemy lab. You'd then click the Alchemy Lab button to build 1 Alchemy Lab, producing 400 cps. At that point, you'd keep clicking that Alchemy Lab button until the Shipment option becomes cheaper than 25% of the cost of the next Alchemy Lab (because the Lab produces 4x as much as a shipment), at which point you'd build a Shipment because you'd get more CPS per cookie spent with the Shipment option than with the Lab. Eventually, a Mine will produce more cps per cookie spent when the Shipment option gets more than 2.5 times more expensive than the Mine, etc. Once the Portal's price gets to where it is cheaper than (Current Alchemy Lab Price x 20.83), build a Portal, etc. Of course, upgrades will throw off the math, and seeing how each tier isn't linearly or properly exponentially spaced, you pretty much have to keep up with everything individually all the time. And cursors gets +CPS bonuses with every object you build so who knows how many of those you need for "optimal" pacing. So yeah, in other words don't worry about it. just click poo poo and watch the numbers go up. GreatGreen fucked around with this message at 21:08 on Aug 27, 2013 |

I work overnight, so this morning, I slept with it running at about 2 million per second, then I woke up, hit refresh, and found new upgrades. A couple clicks later, I'm at 247 billion CPS.

Yeah I had been playing without refreshing for a while, did so, found a lot of milk and upgrades, got an absolutely ludicrous exponential increase in CPS.

Well I'll say one thing. If anything, this game does give you a very 1st hand feel at just how far apart orders of magnitude really are. Waiting for 2 or 3 billion cookies to show up in the bank when I only have 5 million coming in per second makes me feel so cookie poor. Then I look at the cookie counter furiously blazing upwards and wonder how I can be so cookie selfish. Look at how good I have it! So many people will barely see in a lifetime how many cookies I make in but a few seconds. Then I find myself needing even more cookies. More cookies. Now, dammit.

I was slumming along at 2.5k/sec after having the window open all day, refreshed, and it jumped up to 15k/sec and gave me a bunch of achievements and extra upgrades. I refreshed again and I'm back down to 3k/sec What does milk do other than enable the graphic in the click window?

Okay so I'm missing two upgrades (and a whole bunch of achievements but I suspect those are for challenge builds of some sort). I have every cookie type, and all pink-tier upgrades, as well as the extra one at 160 that clickers get. What am I missing? I'm guessing it's grandma related. They're shifty. They're up to something, I just know it. They want some of my 1 billion 300 million cookies per second. Well they can't have any. They're all mine. ALL MINE.

Spiffo posted:What does milk do? How does it work? It looks like you get more milk for getting more achievements, and then the cats make it so the milk gives you additional (and exponentially increasing?) CPS.

Spiffo posted:What does milk do? How does it work? The cat upgrade is supposed to raise your CPS exponentially for each percent of milk you have. I think that is how everyone is getting like 300 billion CPS and other ridiculous numbers. Other than working with the cats, I'm not sure what it's supposed to do.
