@SpanObras I agree with you on one item, I’m not going to spend hundreds of euros for simcash either. Beyond that it becomes simple economics...there are many folks that spend hundreds of dollars on war items monthly - in fact, a friend on mine budgets $25 per week for the war games. Do you honestly think a premium game would benefit EA with the potential loss of this revenue stream...NO. The reality is even this is secondary revenue to advertising income which could be damaged by the introduction of a premium service and your huge number of potential clients is extremely suspect...you’d still have to earn the simoleons and simcash.
A quick bit of history...in the beginning of the mayor’s clubs several implemented barter systems and found them to be burdensome and unmanageable and quickly moved away from them...in most clubs today you can trade items at an agreed to price - but a hamburger for a donut, please. Trading Omega items in the trade depot would be a disaster and even within the club setting would be suspect without appropriate parameters.
Sadly 40 is not a high level and manufacturing of expansion items would substantially damage the credibility of the game and is absolutely unnecessary. Simply join a helpful and supportive mayor’s club that will work with you to achieve your goals...key phrase is work which means you have to invest the time and energy to be successful.
My suggestion is simply slow down and enjoy the game...you will find earning both simoleons and simcash are reasonably simple. Your achievements would actually become accomplishments and be of greater reward that a quick fix solution that gains nothing. Good luck.
