Managing services is unsustainable for F2P low level players

Managing services is unsustainable for F2P low level players

I apologize for posting another complaint for this update but I genuinely can’t find the game fun if I have to deal with this. I mainly just want some advice for gaining more simoleons.

For the past 5 days I have done nothing but farm nails and hammers to get money for the services. I managed to save up over 80,000 and thought that that was plenty ‘cause all I needed was to upgrade power and water and fire and sewage.

As you can tell from the picture I have 4,814 simoleons left after managing the Sims’ complaints. 5 days of saving gone in 5 minutes. How the hell am I supposed to play the game if I can only really play it for 5 minutes every 5 days?

Not to mention the fact that instead of making my city more ‘compact’ like the update notes said it made it more crowded instead ‘cause now i need more power water fire and sewage buildings when it would have otherwise been less had this update not happened.

I also don’t understand how other low level players seem to be fine??? Like where do they get the time and money??? I guess i gotta farm again. For 5 more days (maybe even more!!). Instead of actually building a city.

Decided to start over and play this game from the beginning again, mainly because my previous city was outdated and trying to redo it was such a headache.

I didn’t expect this services update to be so annoying!!! Seriously, why is upgrading so expensive…?

My best bet right now is to sell my stuff and wait for taxes. Upgrading more homes is gonna cause more demand and cause me to level up, adding sewage problems to my already suffering city.

I miss how services used to work back then, they really messed up 😒
