Never want to war again
Got annihilated and spent a full day repairing my city just to get a bunch of useless items. Not fun. Happy to do club challenge and CoM and eventually design challenges.
What do I do with these items?
Golden Tickets
I noticed that all the Bonus Tasks this week are only costing 10 Golden Tickets each. Interesting change - EA don't usually do stuff to make things easier on us! 😂
Unable to despatch trains
Is anyone else having trouble despatching trains? I have a couple ready to go but keep getting the message “hello mayor! Something went wrong……”
Guess EA wants me to stop playing for a few hours
Hard to deliver all that silk, given that I don't have that region open.
PSA: DON'T DISPATCH CARGO TRAINS - YOU WON'T GET PAID!
I just lost 12 Engines or 8400 rail simoleans depending on how you look at it! I'm going to submit a ticket to EA considering I have screenshots showing the before and after of dispatch. I took the screenshots because I was happy to be collecting 8400 rail simoleans on a single dispatch, but I got screwed instead!
Are regions really worth it?
I’m level 50, and have been playing the game on and off for a few years now.
looking at my cities, it is clear that I prioritise my capital city over the regions I have unlocked (2 of which both less than 40k population). I only found out the other day that regional buildings do not contribute AT ALL to the taxes I receive - yes silly me please don’t crash out. So what are you guys using the regions for? It seems like a waste trying to develop my regions that don’t contribute to my economy when I have spare space in my capital city that I am trying to fill!
Task in Design Contest: City by night and entertainment
I am wondering if people read the task description.
Help! Why doesn’t my train station work??
I can’t figure it out what I did wrong
Update: nvm it works all of a sudden
I honestly can’t be bothered with this, and having to watch 500 ads to claim the tokens for the pass. I can understand if you’re train obsessed you might love it but I’m here to design and build beautiful cities.
Anyone else?
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.
Need Information for Freight in Trains
With the new train system, the question arises: which trains should I upgrade? I am still missing information needed to make this decision. Please provide the missing details.
Away from it all..
Being mayor of a 6,7M capital city isn’t always easy. it’s great to wind down in a residence with unobstructed sea view from the pool.. 😉
Am I playing the game properly?
I make sure happiness is 100% all the time, only making residential buildings whenever my money can cover the expenses and demands. I also upgrade all of them until they are skyscrapers/lvl 6. I make every specialization cover all the residential buildings so they are also at 100%. Also involved in the challenges and club stuff. I’ve been playing for 3 days. Any tips?
Prove Me They don't Cheat
Instead of banning certain countries, EA should focus on improving tools to ban these cheaters more efficiently. EA bans the game at some countries, but cheaters are still a lot out there. Shame!
Too many currencies, not enough land, constantly adding complications. I open the game after not playing for 6 months and apparently I don’t have enough police, electricity, sewage treatments etc. To grow my population to a million it just takes so much time and effort. Real world $ ($100s) required to build a really great city. I’m out. Deleting the app now.
When you have more than one Train Delivery available, these are fulfilled individually. That is to say, any surplus passengers / cargo from one mission does not carry over to the next.
To give an example, I had two passenger Deliveries available, as per the screenshot. My first train fulfilled 198 of my First Class passengers, leaving 2 passengers on that Delivery and 200 on the second.
However, my next train dispatch, which had another 198 First Class passengers on it, only fulfilled the first delivery, and left the second delivery untouched.
So it will take some careful thinking to work out the optimal way to fulfil these missions.
