    I think I'm finally at my breaking point with the inherent ineptitude that is EA.

    The two latest events require you to your entire workforce slowly gathering supplies to build other supplies to get any object for the event. Even after the event is over you are required to continue this to the exclusion of •every other activity• in the game, quests and new events included.

    Oh, and you're not even able to exchange the supplies you've focused all your time on because of a bug that EA shows no sign of interest in fixing.

    "Ugh! Not this screen again" is not a very helpful message when the servers are down. Just say we are having technical issues which we are working on. Any idea on when servers are back up?

    ...And even then, after all your hard work collecting garbage then converting that garbage to recycling and then converting that recycling into blueprints the game then rewards you with a truckload of ...the wrong track pieces. I need straights - it just gives me curves. Lots and lots of curves. So much effort. So little reward.

    There's a workaround for this - going to Krustyland for some reason unlocks the milestone and gives you your reward - but this is no use if you're a low enough level to not have Krustyland yet! (I got it long ago but lower level players may not have it yet). But it would be better if it just worked properly instead of having to do workaround methods.

    Same issue as others, can't log into game, if servers are down, the least EA should do is keep the players updated as to when things might be remedied

    Whos to say theyre the "wrong pieces" - theyre the wrong pieces for YOU maybe but theyre not THE wrong pieces

    Its the same for everyone... I currently have 19 curved pieces and 12 semi curved in storage

    The straight pieces will come just some patience involved

    Hi, I'm hoping someone at EA can help with this.

    I was at the point of earning the rail yard (had the blueprints to hand in etc) when the game auto updated. I couldn't hand them in and didn't get the rail yard. Could EA look back and check how close I was and then add the rail yard? I really want to finish my monorail!!

    User name is wendyclohess.

    Thanks

    I'm the one, that's who. I should not have to put all this time and effort into something on the vague chance that the random number generator deems me worthy enough to allow me to extend my rail a couple of more blocks.

    If EA seriously expects me to give them money on things, then I have literally bought the right to be able to construct my town to my choosing.

    I'm glad for you that you've been coddled by EA. The rest of us want what we signed on for.

    Still having issues in the rail yard. I'm over 38k and it still says 30000. I haven't received my 3 pieces of rail and the blue line has gone way off the pop up screen. Because of this I have no idea how far I have to go to get to the end before the time runs out. I have a suspicion that I am not close, but would like to know how far I have gotten.

    I am having an issue where I cannot get any rail pieces. Specifically I have at the Rail Yard 68,653 out of 50,000 for my next set of 5 "mystery pieces".

    I would also like to echo previous posts that are unhappy about the randomness of the monorail track types. I would prefer a system more similar to the boardwalk to getting new pieces. Along with many of us, I have invested orders of magnitude more in this EA game than others so would be nice if we had more of a say.

    Oh wow...

    Well then heres the thing.. if youre not getting what you want after putting in "all this time and effort" then DONT PLAY!

    Yes its that simple :wink:

    And EA doesnt expect you to give them money.. thats your choice and if you so choose to then thats on you. Maybe look up the word "Freemium" :wink:

    "Coddled by EA" You mean like the millions and millions of others who are playing and NOT complaining about what theyre getting?

    Thats a whole lotta coddling for anyone... even EA

    :lol:

    Dude its a game... lighten up. :wink:

    Anyone else having an issue with the Railyard monorail pieces? I'm at level 4 and it's gone beyond 50,000 pieces. I think I'm sitting at 20,000 over what I'm required to have to complete Lvl 4. Any help our guidance for this? I'd really like to get my 5 extra doughnuts by the end of the day today. Thanks,
