Have anymore advise, there are so many question from different level of players and it is difficult to obtain Knowledgable answers to a broad spectrum of gamers....would love for some of those problems to be addressed....
Is there here any thing specific you would like answered because there is a lot to figure out and documentation from EA is limited, hard to find, out of date, and sometimes flat wrong.
I had planned on addressing other areas in detail, but truthfully I expected a little more response to this post than I've gotten. It is hard to get into details and keep it short and concise and I'm not sure people want to see long posts on these forums. I've been toying with the idea of writing something on Specialty Buildings since it is such huge part of a successful city and they can make or break your quest for Epic Buildings and I just can't believe what I see sometimes as I explore others cities while trading, people do not seem to have a clue to maximize their potential. Then I need to remind myself there is no right or wrong way to build your city as long as you are getting the results you want.
Always glad to help just ask.
I think having a tutorial section regarding different topics with very precise headings would be nice. I haven't seen much new info on the web since the last update and a lot is really outdated. I type in the search box provided above and what pops up is so broad. I write long posts,lol. Can you tell...hee hee. It does take work to compile and organize information and players input from those with accurate knowledge but it really needs more subdivisions IMO. General is so vast and broad. It would be nice to have lists, like residential buildings only related, and then subdivide that into epics, specialized towns, omega. A section for the speciality buildings. With info like what they do, maximizing their potential etc. There are just so many topics it's crazy, lol. These forums represent that because people are looking for such specific information that finding it at times can be a challenge. I won't complain though because I am grateful to have it versus nothing and I think folks really do try to help best they can. I think I did find a way to add friends via iMessage on iPad and it's a hassle but I tried it and the person got the message but they don't actually play so seeing if the invite actually would be accepted wasn't useful. I see a lot of email addresses when I check my contacts and I don't know whose they are but many resemble city names in game. I sent one invite out to a name that looked familiar and they didn't respond back at all, lol. Maybe they were freaked out by getting a message from someone they know nothing about or just didn't get it or deleted it as spam...who knows. My email address does not resemble my game name at all. It's weird how that info shows up though. I think it recognizes anyone in game at the time and just lists them. I think that's kind of a weird way to try to make friends. It's personal information with an email contact that some may not want shared. I don't want some weirdo emailing me..lol. I think most peeps are ok but you just never know. I however have not gotten a message at all and I guess you'd need to list your email here to let other gamers know..hey, I play and would like some friends, here's my email, it will be in your contacts list when I am in game. Jeez..what a hassle. I had to read the tutorial on it several times to actually understand how to get it going but I am not the most savvy techno person out there and I am a little concerned about just throwing my info out there but my address should be showing up in others contacts list if they have know how to use it. Lol. The flip side is if you get hooked up with some cool peeps then you can work together to advance much more quickly and a means of communications to accomplish goals. I'll try it a few more times to see if it works but I can only friend folks with iOS. It won't cross over to android I don't think. Facebook just isn't something I support though playing solo isn't so bad anyway. Just a heads up.
