Daily participition, tasks and progression

Quote from mjkerr

I am finding the daily participation is exceeding what I originally was able to complete

I now have tasks that exceed the time I have available
I was able to login, spend thirty minutes each day, and complete the tasks

I now struggle to do that and many tasks I cannot complete, as a result they impact the end of the week
As a result I look at these and do not perform any for a few days

Is this the intention / target?
Login, do nothing and then login the next day and view only?

I see the number and level of the daily tasks increasing from time to time and they are especially lengthy when "specials" are being held. However, some of the specials duplicate the daily task so as an example there may be "complete 100 fire missions" in daily and it is duplicated in the "event" list as well. I will agree that it is sometimes difficult to complete them all but that is the challenge of the game I guess. I seriously don't think the intent or target is what you mention in your last sentence. I also struggle to complete some missions that require "special stuff" because I don't have traffic control, flood equipment, cranes or tow trucks. Those things were added well after I started and to add them across the board, with the extensions required would be huge as my set up covers 90% of FL and parts of Southern GA and AL. I have made a few suggestions in general conversation for changing the promotional ranks thus reducing the credits to do so.

The game is certainly challenging and while it can be frustrating from time to time, I love it.

eek, today was 330 missions
I worked I would need to perform missions for 11 hours

That is just impractical...
Have I missed something?

Not sure why it takes you so long as I completed them in about 2 hrs

took me about 6 hours to do while at work working. When we have those do 330 mission ones I just turn on my EMS stations and crack through them. Dispatch center for fire, one for ems, one for police. I turn the others off so its just one specific mission set coming through. Crank the generation speed as high as you can and go.

I get about 28 missions per hour

oh.....understand.. the larger the set up the more you will get and then it obviously becomes easier

What speed are you running them on? How many stations?

I generally find the tasking okay, just the payout for them is horrible. Spend 200k, get 20k back. Build a fire station (costs 760k for me), get 30k back. Yes this contributes to X Daily Tasks payouts, but thats maybe an extra 50k.

I typically just do any tasks that are actually achievable and worth it. One I do hate though is X personnel trained. Straight up impossible unless you have people finish training every single day or magically the timing lines up. Especially when they have follow up tasks to train even more people...

you can finish the training using coins (if you have them)

I've just completed all the weekly and available daily tasks without even thinking much about it and I never really recall too much of an issue. Even when at full time uni, I use to just leave the tab open, and then clear them when I had a break. Currently with my station count, around 250 missions stack up for me to clear (though back then it was more like 100+). With your building count I guess you have around 100?

There are tools that exist that make clearing large numbers of missions easier, such as LSSM which adds new tools and makes handling things like large number of transports requests a piece of cake. A significant time saver.

Might be worth checking out.

I do think the tasks scale with how many stations you have, so you may have just crossed into the next bracket up and so is naturally a little harder to do because its meant to be
