Helter Shelter smaller?

CactusMatt88

Need to see pics to see the difference, i got the building 1st time round so havent seen the new one

direwolf987

Or at least tell us the footprint of the building so we can check

Obviously I don't have the original to compare it to in my own town but going by what it looks like in neighbours towns it looks smaller to me. Also I didn't buy it yet because I didn't want to buy something that was a cheaper version of the original (if that makes any sense.)

Yes it is smaller, im 100% sure, mine sat perfectly in my city district, it now looks ridiculously lost in a massive space :evil:

It's the same size as mine and I got mine when it was first variable.

It is smaller. According to the tapped out wiki it should be 8 x 5, but I counted 6 x 4 on my helter shelter.

The have all shrunk, ea must have resized them all, a bit like when they ruined the rose bush

So it seems like they changed the size of everyone's Helter Shelter, existing or otherwise? Sneaky.

Mine totally shrunk. I had two training walls behind it and it was flush with both the buildings next to it. Now I can see the training walls and it is only flush with one building.

I loved the old bushes, must've had 50 of them. Now languishing in storage.

What the heck, it looks like cr*p now next to my other buildings

Edit: Pic Added, it used to be the same size as the other buildings in the area....

Why does ea do this they come up with a great event and a level update during and a 4th of July that lasted. 2 weeks to wait for a yard sale that'll last a week with nothing new for players that already have the stuff
This is **** and to top it off they shrink a building that was won in a wheel of chance

Why the heck did EA do this? I have a problem with the sizes of a lot of the buildings in this game, but the Helter Shelter wasn't one of them.

It looks kinda dumb now where I have it placed in my SF. Maybe it is a prelude to EA shrinking all the buildings to give us more space?

direwolf987

Did they change the size of any other buildings?

NickiElliott

I don't mind mine being shrunk, it did look out of place where it was but I moved it one square forward and sideways and it sits there just as nicely now

I was just thinking the same thing myself - 'You need more land? No problemo, we'll just make everything smaller'
