Absolutely.
A truly disheartening game dynamic, one which the devs seem not be fussed about.
This style of play was introduced in the Epic building dynamic, the more you build, the more you need to create one token but then hits a roof.
Not the best actually but forces you to think about what buildings you need. For example, one tower is probably enough, but maybe 3 small control nets and 2 med, 1 large would be more cost effective than 3 large.
Understandable. After all that's the allure of the SimCity franchise, how creative can you be with maximizing you resources and real estate to develop your own, custom virtual city.
The thing is, my city is specifically tailored to support 10 neighborhoods consisting of 16 residences per block. I HAVE to have 4 Small ControlNet Towers at the corners of each neighborhood to support the full compliment of buildings. If my 4th ControlNet is going to cost 32,400 NeoSimoleons... I'm too discouraged to even entertain the thoughts of trying to create a second, much less the third OMEGA neighborhood that I initially planned for upon receiving the latest update.
