I’ve supported this game and bought the Mayor’s Pass for years, but the Services 2.0 update is where I draw the line. This isn't an "expansion"; it’s a calculated shakedown of the most loyal players.
The "Service Tax" is Game-Breaking:
- Forced Failure: My optimized city is now "failing" overnight. Forcing us to spend massive resources to fix services that were already perfect isn't a mechanic—it’s a penalty for being a veteran.
- Predatory Economy: You’ve shifted from "Pay to Progress" to "Pay to Stay Afloat." That is the fastest way to kill a community.
- The End of Growth: This update creates a resource sink so deep that it makes creative city building impossible.
My Wallet is Closed.
I am halting all spending—no more Mayor’s Passes, no more currency. If the goal was to drive away your core supporters, mission accomplished. You have a choice: rebalance the service requirements or watch your veteran player base evaporate.
Check the forums. Check Reddit. We aren't just unhappy; we’re done. Fix the balancing before there’s no one left to play.
