Suggestion on how to make STS better

Make it similar to Treasure Hunt where spending guarantees something. With STS, you can spend SC, simcoins, cupcakes, watch ads and STILL lose. This is why I prefer the Treasure Hunt. You have control over winning and losing.

 

Here's my suggestion to make it more bearable and actually winnable:

 

1. Keep the ads constant and fixed for +10%. Watching an ad for 2% is very discouraging. Feels scammy to watch for such little reward. On top of that, anything below 95% has a high chance of failing.

 

2. Keep the +20% for 1500 simoleons constant for each round. It seriously makes all the difference. The 6% for 1000 is in no way a good deal.

 

Since the percentages feel rigged where anything below 94% still fails a lot, at least give us the option to make it easier to reach 100%.

 

Honestly, I just wish they retire STS. It's way too RNG based. Treasure Hunt is heaps better.

@ascjced What I think is that a better alternative for STS should be found.There just isn't any excitement left in that event.Something more innovative can be developed instead

True. I wish they will just retire this "event". It is the WORST. It's bad enough to design something to be a currency sink, but this is designed to suck money off of players and STILL have the chance to lose. It's terrible.

@ascjced I think your suggestions are great, and it would certainly make the STSs much more palatable.

 

I would like to suggest that we be able to choose what rewards we unlock with the STS currency that we earn, instead of getting things at random. Once upon a time they had events like that, and everybody loved that feature. Please bring that back, devs!

Thank you! I just played again and lost at 8th round with 95% rate. After already spending 3k simoleons and 5 SC after it failed at Round 1. The RNG in this thing is just disgusting.

 

I really hate STS. It's the worst. The treasure hunt, I enjoy. You can just rely on luck, then use coins towards the end. Coin well spent and not wasted. I dread all the times this "event" starts.
