Title says it all! Why?! 8-15 slots always taken up with disaster items for the tower! ? I don't even have the tower built! why are 30-50% of the spots wasted? Should be an easy fix to not offer items which a player cannot use!

DING!!! WINNER! The new Dr. Vu update is horrible. You have to spend 100,000 simolians to upgrade to a level where you Are supposed to get a key but you still might not. Everyone has stopped playing that portion of the game. I sure hope EA has noted ALL the complaints about the * new update.

I'm not sure EA could have broken this game any worse if they'd tried. This fiasco has screwed up EVERY major system in the game. How is it possible that they could release a major update with so little beta testing?*<Golf clap> Well done, EA.*The alternative -- that they actually did beta test this "upgrade" -- means that they KNEW how badly it would foul the game up. And released it anyway. That does not make me feel better...

It's ridiculous. I was spending hours inthe global trade trying to find one item not already sold before the update. Now I can't even find sold ones. Instead of fixing the global trade problems that everyone has been complaining about, they chose to add new "features" like Vu tower changes and new road upgrades that become mandatory even with no building or population changes. They've ruined the game. I'll probably be quitting.

It's pretty obvious the update was intended to make it more difficult to proceed without spending real money. Now it is much more difficult to get keys and progressing in the game costs a lot more Simoleons. And who can blame them really, at the end of the day they want to get as much money out of the game as possible. I personally would prefer they just charge $20 upfront and then actually give us an enjoyable game from the get go but apparently those days are gone. Micro transactions and IAPP are the way of the future. I guess there enough people who spend $100s on the game to offset the cost of those who play for free.

It is because of the new update. The disasters do not reward keys anymore so no one is going to do them as that was the whole point of It.

I like to think of it as a boycott 🙂 Even I have been selling all my Vu items. It's not worth it anymore. And now since everybody is selling it and it's generally an item always available anyway, might as well clear it out to give more storage space.

My last trade center searches pulled 16 out 24 and 18 out of 24 Vu items. it was tough before to find rare items. There will be no sense to try and find stuff ya need now

This was happening to me too, but with the update, I'm not sure if its people flooding the market or their algorithm got screwed up. But as of a few hours ago, the game keeps saying I'm in offline mode. So my inventory is getting screwed.

It's almost like they are intentionally killing this game...

I did a spot check of the market. Ten times -- 24 total items; 7-12 Dr. Vu items. Average was 8-9. Well done EA developers.

No one wants Vu items anymore. Lol, I listed all mine popping advertising on them often but it looks like they'll clog up my trade depot until Daniel comes and takes them. It would be easier if there were just an option to throw them away.
