This would never work on consoles. How would these hourly tasks work on a console? If you took the game out the time would just stop or reset depending on saves I guess and then all the additional content. You know Microsoft charges for DLC so that would be awful. This is not the type of game for consoles....at all.

the game syncs with a server.. doesn't matter if your phone is on or off tasks will still complete would be no different on a console.

At least some people "get it"... putting Tapped Out on the PS4/One would just expand its audience.

yes but who cares

Oh, I don't know, 31% of the people who voted in this poll? It's probably a safe bet that at least 30% of the people who voted "No" said so just because they don't have/can't afford a One/PS4.

And you figure new content will end soon based on --

You're logic is terrible. The 31% who said yes already have the game so how would adding it to a console expand the audience?

I think TSTO would be an awful idea to make on a console. Think about how most people play: they log in for a few minutes while waiting in line, on a work break, while eating, during tv commercials, etc. Rarely do people log in for more than a few minutes unless they are visiting neighbors. Who is going to start up their console and tv and load up the game to play for 5 minutes and then turn everything off?

Tsto works cuz it is a fantastic time waster for a few minutes several times a day. This requires it to have quickly, easy access a la portable devices.

people might play it for a few minutes before they start to play a game.. some people who play this game only use 24 hour tasks to only have to log in once a day.
