Once you get to the higher levels building times are extremely long some take up to 2 weeks. Instead of just gems there should be a way to either speed the process by putting more gold/elixr into the upgrade or clan mates being able to help it go faster kind of like game of war its a great idea. Im not saying a clan mate come in and tap a button and the upgrade finish i mean like a clan mate shaving off about 15 minutes or so. Let me know what you think
While the upgrading time is high, the cost is also high. I am a mid th10 and using all 5 of my workers constantly means I have to farm daily around 2mil gold, to keep up with the upgrades.
Point is, upgrade times are good in relation to how much they cost. Sometimes I struggle to get all the resources necessary to give the worker another upgrade to do right after he finishes the previous one, so I am fine with the current system.
Your best bet is to just support the Boosted Builder feature that Supercell might possibly be thinking of doing. It is listed in the sticky thread, but as a possible addition, not ruled out. Since boosted things cost less than outright paying for 'finish now' feature, it would both likely bring in more gem-buying income from people unwilling to pay the currently high cost of the 'finish now' feature, as well as make players happy to not have to wait so much for some upgrades. Also, it is an established feature, so coding it would be easy to do. Only issue is cost and balancing.
