Super-aspirationals

EA watch this forum we dont need to be giving them ideas on a HUGE price tag like that :shock:

I'm sitting on just over 322million at the moment so it wouldnt be a problem but i wouldnt like to spend that kind of money unless the item gave us donuts as a reward payment for so much money!

I would like to have that. Something to work up to again. Ok, some players might not like it.....but if you have evrything and nothing aspirational to work to anymore.....that's just a pity. Or as suggested in the past, be able to buy donuts. 1 donut = 1 million or something like that.

I get why they don't. It would just encourage farming and it makes no sense to their business model. But at the same time, I'm not paying ten bucks just so I can have a throwaway character voiced by a special guest star in 2007.

OK, I'll speak in a whisper…

In actual fact, I reckon it would be a good fit with their business model. To work towards something really aspirational, tappers would be tempted to buy premium characters/skins and decos with multipliers = more bucks for EA…

I'm sitting on $230 million. In fact I normally keep it at $200 million and buy/sell decorations with any extra for the XP. I have only bought one or two or the aspirationals as I find them too large and unsightly to put in my town. Seems a little pointless just to build and store them.

So if EA did bring out a range of Supercalifragalistic aspirationals I would only buy them if they fit in the town, provided specific fun jobs (as in the coloured wigs) or provided a special benefit (occasional donuts). Otherwise they would just be a waste of EA design time.

I like the idea. Something small, though, though, and an object that's appropriate to a small town. (Not an absurd thing like a giant Popsicle stick tower).

I have aspirationals in storaage because theyre too big. Except cubic zirconia which has a small foorprint, and is short enough to not block buildings behind it, and goes well with the jewelry store, and Sunsphere which works into museum area near the Knowledge um. :)

Maybe, as some said above, something that would pay out a significant prize -- premium building/character not already in your town, or 50. donuts, etc.

$50 million sounds about right, though might be too low.

That's one of the reasons I like the Burns' Money Mountain.... I can spend some cash. I've got 82M and nothing to buy. agree, the aspirationals are fun but don't really fit in the town, except for the zirconia. which I still haven't bought. Just not crazy about it.

I would like to see more tasks like Money Mountain where we can build or add on to something with cash. One of the most disappointing buildings IMO was SF Mall. Add-ons for that would be appropriate. IF we had more land/water.

EA could make the mall like Krusty Land - tap on the mall to go to a different area where you can build various stores like Ned's Leftorium.
