Why do we have another store?! And 350,000 to buy it?! STOP ADDING STORES EA!! Try fixing the lack of expansion, the 4 or 5 dead currencies, the terrible railway system, anything but consistently banging out more stores that add nothing and take up space. Just about done with SimCity now, it’s not fun anymore.
It's caused one of the worst bottlenecks in the game to get even worse - the Farmer's Market 😞
Plus, I don't have so many factories. We should get a few additional ones.
I agree! I haven’t even built the Farmer’s Market yet, and now the Dessert Store appears. This seriously undermines my trust in EA. They shouldn’t change the rules of the game, when it’s being played.
I agree with nolabcb. I just build stuff when I want. Mayors death game is just silly. Petty squabbles between childish and whiney teams is pretty boring. Complaints about cheaters and spending? Just ignore all that. No one is putting a gun to your head to spend real money here it is just people’s egos making them compete. It is just like a driver going into road rage because of a perceived slight from another driver. As Pogo said “unlax”
Yeah, these additional stores are sucking the life out of the game. Takes to much time and resources along with building space. Most of my club is complaining and not hardly participating. I'm about to quit after 8 yrs of playing and even spending real money!
Thinking of doing the same, if I get your drift. Not really planned or developed my city for over a year now. Too busy making stuff for CoM. All I do is make, make, make, I once upon a time use to build stuff.
Exactly
As I had a lot of GC, I had reached my goal of having 10M in the bank I decided to fully upgrade the two older "new" shops, buy and upgrade the new "new" Dessert shop. That little escapade cost roughly 4.5M GC, 4.5M! Also I decided to do the same with my second city which had about 7M GC in bank. To my surprise my second city Level 85 was not sufficiently advanced to do the upgrades. The Bureau requires L86 for final upgrade. The Country Store requires L92 for third upgrade. The Dessert Shop needs L87 to even start doing even the first upgrade. So most players are stuck with unwanted, long production time shops they cannot even upgrade. So if your aim is to not only alienate more experienced players with the ludicrously high cost but also to annoy the newer players who can not upgrade even if they wanted to I would say you did it EA. Some would say it's a win win. I do however think for some it will be a bin bin.
I am not bothered by upgrades that are above my city level - they do not affect the game and I do not need them for anything.
