Re: When will SimCity BuildIt expand the map in 2017?

★ Novice

I am with Grant...EA is going to have a lot of long time players leaving the game...why keep offering new and unique buildings if you've run out of space, there are so many buildings that you have no option to store...I spend about $20 a month, not much, but if you multiply it by how many players you are standing to lose, it's a big amount...if EA could just answer this question it would be nice....it's one EA seems to ignore.

Me too....  Why bother to participate to get new stuff if all you do is store it?   Reaching max potential of land use  pretty much ends the game.

EA, please fix the zoom! It's so annoying that zooming out is not possible anymore. If you are concerned about performance, just let the users decide in the options what they want (higher zoom vs. more FPS).

 

Another thing: If you want to buy an item (e.g. dozer parts) and you get the "Oops, ...the item is gone"-message, please let the player return to the store immediately so he has the chance to buy another item. Don't send him back to the global market (only if there are no more items in the store).

We should be able to rate other cities when we visit them. Thus we can find out whether our cities look nice or not. Future and current players may push themselves to make their cities better perhaps. The rating system might be based on max 5 stars or 1 to 10 points. And maybe an indicator that shows their current points? Standard smile What others think matters if you ask me. Please consider this.

Animation on the Mountain. I would like to see the half pipe and ski resort animated with skiers like the ski jump is. Who agrees??

(3) - 60 point epic challenge assignments in less than 12 hours?

★★★★ Apprentice

Hello,

 

If something could be done to make it so the "random" features of the mayoral challenge assignments are actually possible to be accomplished, other than don't play for the next 18+ hours - it would be appreciated.

 

I'm a heavy player of Megalop level challenges, and getting three - 60 point epic assignments in less than 12 hours, is really annoying.

 

For those who aren't aware, an epic building - max points is 160 to reach gold.  So there is no way to actually do three - 60 point epic assignments on the same building... as the epic building itself takes 24 hours to complete - and then I forget 8 or 10 hours? before the next building becomes available.  My choices are as follows:

 

1. Don't play for the next 18 or so hours.

 

2. Chose a lower point assignment, which in Megalop - is guaranteed to make me loose the challenge.

 

So... my only viable option is #1 - as I'm trying to win.

 

-Michael

Reduce the prices of Worships,increase their boosting ability and range

★★★ Newbie
I m level 50 and 3.2 millon population owner mayor.
I saw that,Every worship places boost only 20% population for each residential buildings and it has 12.12 range.Prices of every worship building is 40 gold keys which does not match to any other specialization plus it needs a big area for setting.Which does not make any senses.Mayors are not investing in worship because its so expensive and dont boost population as well.I m making my city unique by setting up worship buildings.
Dear kindheart,my request is could you please reduce the prices of worships and increase their range and boosting ability.It will be better if you bring more attractive and amazing worships of world in next update if you can bring casinos.And dont forget bring Hindu temples.I hope you will accept my kind request Simcity.Thank you.Peace

Access to store when not at home

★★★★ Novice

Hi,

 

Could you add the ability to view my storage contents while visiting another city?

 

This would allow me to make a decision whether or not to buy something there based on what I have already.

 

It's almost impossible to go home, view the store then return to the same place, if I want to buy the items there before the trade HQ list refreshes.

 

Thanks.

Implement private sale option

★★★ Newbie

Hi, this is the one to resolve one of the most painful aspects of the game, one that creates a lot of conflict and upset in players.
Many players use clubs to trade and exchange items, however frequently rogue players would jump in to purchase a rare item posted for somebody else. Or it would be done by mistake
At the moment there is no mechanism to prevent this. It creates  lot of friction, argument and conflict in the game. And that being a game I think it should be avoided.
It is very simple to solve by adding "private sale" option to the item one wants to post, so when someone tries to purchase - seller can be presented with a dialog, something like "such and such wants to purchase this item" and an option to allow or not the sale.
Something like this already exist for the sale offers made by fire/police e.t.c - these ask you if you want to sell N number of items for X price and you have option accept/decline.

Again implementing such a simple system will eliminate main source of conflict between players in the game.

 

Thanks

Re: [Suggestions] Improvements for the game

★ Expert

I would like to offer a few positive suggestions for potential improvements to the game. I apologize in advance if I duplicate someone's suggestion, please consider it a vote of agreement with you. I have included a couple I already offered in a different string that probably should have been placed here.

- add a reference (flag or initials) to nationality of the city to aid in recruiting and planning resources to support the time zone

- identity if a city is in a mayor's club (emblem exists) - saves time in the recruiting process 

- setup a club list of items in members depots

  - provides quick access to members providing an advantage to the city for participating in the club

  - assists in identifying feeder cities that have made their way into a club

  - provides information while protecting the integrity of the global market 

- in the Club Member section post total number of points earned within the club for all challenges participated in

  - helps eliminate frustration and confusion  

  - provides realistic information for new members as they evaluate the club

- provide a message bubble for a brief communication with a city being recruited 

  - provides an opportunity to share what's special about your club

  - they will know you're genuine in your interest and a human

I recognize some may be cost prohibitive. Thanks for your consideration.
