EA: Now is the time to finally change the Zoom

Annathewicked

We’ve asked for it forever….
You added a Bunch of new land
New phones have exaggerated the issue
Now would be a great time to finally change the zoom so we can see just a bit more of town for our design purposes

Please

Hi all, been lurking but not talking for a bit, happy to see you all

I just wish it would stop zooming in after a bart screen. I have to restart my device just to do some designs.

When this game was originally released the resolutions we currently have would have been difficult on most computers never mind portable devices and depending upon the original code for the game to just simply adjust the zoom levels might require a complete rewrite of the core code which I suspect would never happen as it could bring the whole game tumbling down.

Fixing those glitchy things would be great for sure

Sadly, IT me has run that possibility over in my brain.
It’s just a glaring need at this point with newer and newer phones… but I do see that coding wise it might be a pipe dream.
Man, we needs it lol

They've already changed the resolution on the full town image, so more can be viewed at once without the file size being too large. The consequences of seeing more at once, is losing detail up close.

What they need is to integrate the two levels of zoom and two scales of resolution (portrait level and gameplay level), within the portrait file. That'll never happen. They have already demonstrated they care very little about the UI/UX of this game. Can't even get an inventory index here.
