QUITTING Simcity, WORST UPDATE EVER!!!

The Game lost its beauty of completing COM tasks, Global Market and everything! There are plenty of problems with this mew Chicago update!

  1. COM Tasks - No one asked you to change that, now bringing daily tasks? expecting us to login daily and do? is it a game or a paid job? to daily login? And whats that weekly cap? why u limitting us to do tasks? and no more free 50 tasks? all came under bonus tasks? completely killed the beauty of this game, totally changed to earn money from us! no point of playing anymore! And tasks not getting completed as well, completely buggy! And suddenly new points system came from nowhere to complete mayor pass? a new purple point system? whats wrong with plumbob points? Complete madness and 0 sense of knowledge!

2. Global Market - I mean who asked you to change the design? with that bright background and white typography, we barely able to see the pricings and its really hard to see? 0 knowledge of design sense. And the refresh button at the end instead of middle? cant close by tapping anywhere anymore? just wanna use a back button? and even that design overlaps the storage spaces view? better u should fire the designers first? even a kid knows to keep up spacing and complementary colors? Full of madness!

3. Seasonal Currency - Inthe last Cairo mayor pass, we already told to remove the seasonal currency, because its already became useless and taking the game away from the main idea, but this time you developers came up with 2 seasonal currencies! WOWWW! I understood that this discussion forum is also broke! What we said is no more seasonal currency, EA be like boom 2 seasonal currencies this time? Next time what? 3 seasonal currencies? complete nonsense! And one of the seasonal currency is completely broke, no point of collecting it, no way to spend or do anything? EA completely turned this game into a dead piece of $@*#.

No one asked for these unwanted updates? Why the developers cant focus the actual issues instead of developing these stup!d things? Bring back the Old Simcity, until that Good Bye, This would save some storage space!

SimCity - BrokeCity ✌️

Deleting the Game, EA You never gonna check this discussion and change the game, This entire discussion forum is also broke! ✌️

    Absolutely agree 100%. EA has to be the worst modern day company of all time. I literally quit playing Madden, quit playing FC (was better before they took over) and this was really the only game I still played that is made by them. I’m literally uninstalling right now after they decided to ruin the game with this disgusting update. This is why I’ll never spend a penny on any of their games. I made sure not to get any of their “passes” because I didn’t want them to benefit. The only thing I would do is watch the ads to get stuff quicker but they don’t even deserve that. Just a greedy greedy company that loves to ruin every game they get their hands on. The worst part is they also do exclusive agreements where no other company can produce a specific genre of game so that they have no competition. Theyre greedy business people that don’t care about any feedback.

  • And one more point, The leftover seasonal currency from last season is just vanished? and now two new seasonal currencies introduced? what point of common sense is this? 

    EA should stop making games and go do farming instead 😂✌️

    I couldn't express it better. I was complaining last season for the unreachable egyptian hospital and all the changes they've been doing the last two years or so.... Multiple currencies, neverending producing tasks, abuse of multiple events, showcases and shops at the same time.... People who like a city building game is usually calm people who don't like such a pressure. The addiction to the game begins when you have challenges but it's possible to get the prizes. 

    If you (despite having bought the premium pass+) are unable to complete an event and get the building prize, unless you work on it 24/24 hours, take medication not to sleep and wear an urinary catheter not to move from the game.... this all result in no fun at all. The game is not pleasant or relaxing anymore. It's stressing and it produces anxiety.

    So when I saw the classic sands event, asking for 9260 plumbobs to be completed, I knew the disaster had no turning back. I quitted the game last week, stored everything and disconnect. I coudn't erase the city. I hope to be able to do it soon. Too many records, friends, efforts, time inversion and money too... I didn't want to download the update to avoid seeing the new season.

    But I keep contact with my club via whatsapp and they told me this morning it is a mess, it's not working. I've finally downloaded it. It's horrible. The worst thing they could do to this game. Train and residential daily tasks are not working, but weekly tasks have also bugs. I completed one of the ten tasks showed, so another one from the remaining five was supposed to appear, but it didn't. It doesn't renew the tasks as you complete them.

    There's not only a new currency, but three (don't forget golden tickets have become currency).

    The market boxes and other dialog boxes don't have the X up right to close them. They don't close if you touch elsewhere in the tablet. You can only close them changing the hand you catch the tablet or phone with, to be able to touch the back button just at the left bottom edge.... Could it all be worst? No, it couldn't.

    I don't like this game anymore. Being so difficult and expensive to get everything reduces a lot the gaming joy. Addiction comes when you are able to earn and reach things (with a moderate effort, with normal life, sleeping, eating, working, going out and all that), not when you must die to get them or pay 100-200 € weekly. And then the game simply must end. It's not a game anymore. It's a torture. It's a pity for all the players and our effort that EA has been letting aside in his anxiety for more and more income.

    EA has been always in search for big challenges. Its last defy is this one: winning the golden medal to supreme incompetence.

    Bye, Simcity Buildit. I can't suffer any more.

  • Don't fix what ain't broke.! EA does not understand this. And now they have killed the game lol great form!

    I completely agree with everyone here. This game is giving me anxiety. I have played from the beginning. I play to calm myself because I have severe anxiety and ptsd. The nightmare that this game has become is just disappointing   I have completely lost track of how many currencies we now have   It is way past the point of being completely ridiculous.   It seems as if the developers are actively trying to destroy the game

    100% agree... I pay for mayor pass every month then all of a sudden I've reached some stupid weekly cap meaning I cant climb the ladder on the leader board and others can just pass on by.... daily assignments totally failed to work and as for the ridiculous seasonal currency don't get me started.... 

     

    THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE GAME PRIOR TO THIS UPDATE!!!! its really put me off and I have put hundreds of hours and money into this game for them to go ahead and totally ruin the fun experience... of course they won't bother to look at the feedback... it takes customer services forever just to reply to a problem....
