No 50 %
When you reach level 41 it is said you get +50% purple points. But when i got to 41, in megalopolis, then points went from 1320 to 1650, from 2210 to2763, from 11260 to 14075, from 6000 to 7500, to give some exemples And that is not 50 % but only 25 %. So please explain Lanna or who ever at EA. Is that the same with other players ? Anywhy it is strange to give more points now ,and not souner , that you are in the last week where you always get double points.33Views0likes1CommentServices 2.0 is coming!
Greetings, Mayors, and welcome to Services 2.0! Here’s everything you need to know about the new update. Services 2.0 brings upgradeable Service buildings to SimCity BuildIt! This new system makes managing your city’s services more strategic, interactive, and rewarding. ℹ️ Notice: This will be gradually activated for all players. If you don’t see the new features yet, don’t worry—they will be available to everyone soon! The rollout is happening in stages, so keep an eye out for updates in your game. This ensures a smooth experience for all Mayors as the new system goes live. During the rollout, any negative effects from service coverage—like abandoned buildings or unhappy citizens—will be temporarily paused, so you can explore Services 2.0 without worry. Plus, we’ll be sending out special gifts to help you get started and make the transition even sweeter! Here’s a step-by-step guide to how it works: 1. Unlocking Service Buildings As you level up your city, you’ll unlock different types of service buildings—like Fire, Police, Health, Water, Power, and more. Each service type starts with the smallest building, and bigger, more powerful buildings become available as your city grows. This means you’ll always have new options to keep your citizens happy and safe. 2. Placing Service Buildings When you place a service building, it starts at upgrade level 1. Each Area Service Building has a coverage area (the part of your city it can serve). Capacity Service Buildings tell you how many Residential Zones (RZs) the building can support within its coverage area. If you have more homes than your building’s capacity, some won’t be fully served! 3. Upgrading Service Buildings Now, you can upgrade most service buildings! Upgrading increases their capacity, so they can serve more homes. Upgrades cost Simoleons for standard service buildings, and other in-game currencies for special service buildings. You’ll see upgrade stats in the building’s info panel and tooltips, so you can plan ahead. 4. Managing Coverage and Capacity Here’s the trick: every home in your city needs to be covered by a service building with enough capacity. If a service building’s capacity is maxed out, extra homes in its area won’t be served, which can lead to problems like abandonment. One home can be serviced by multiple service buildings —so make sure your upgrades and placements are strategic! 5. Bulldozing and Refunds If you need to reorganize your city, you can bulldoze the standard service buildings. You’ll get a partial refund based on the building’s level. Special service buildings can be stored but not bulldozed. 6. UI Feedback and Service Demand The game’s UI will help you manage your services. You’ll see icons and stats showing the service demand, so you know when it’s time to upgrade or add new buildings. In addition, use your city's Report Card to spot any issues! If something's wrong—such as homes not being served—you’ll see problem icons and receive guidance through the Report Card, making it easy to identify and resolve problems quickly. 7. Progression and Strategy As your city grows, service demand increases. You’ll need to keep upgrading and adding service buildings to keep up. This new system adds more depth and goals, making city management more interesting and challenging.Solved60KViews13likes56CommentsThe En**bleep**tification
Remember six months ago? The Railway Adventures season had just ended and our first encounter with seasonal currency and it went well enough. With a Premium Mayor's Pass, you could complete all 48 tiers of the Mayor's Pass track and earn enough of the new coins to not only acquire the new train, but level it up as well. Then came Cairo and the Egyptian Hospital "reward" that, for anyone unfortunate enough to complete it, required 8,000 points by itself. I imagine more players abandoned the reward, and along with it, the chance of fully leveling up their Pyramid hotspot. But it was still doable without paying for anything beyond the Premium pass. It sucked, god did it suck, to the point that I almost threw in the towel, but I stuck with it in the hopes that this was just one bad season after a run of several average or better. How wrong I was. Chicago brought us two seasonal currencies that nobody asked for, and for the first time, the season's final reward could not be achieved by purchasing the Premium Mayor's Pass alone. In fact, we haven't been able to do so since Cairo. For the first time since I joined the game, I was unable to earn a reward. We did get a separate Materials Storage this season, and while it's great for longtime players, has to be one of the worst introductions ever for newbies. I'd give it up in a heartbeat to get rid of seasonal currencies. Kyoto was a waste of time, Monaco gave us some pretty buildings and just as many hideous ones, Munich was impossible, and Halloween was even worse. After the week 2 event for Norway ended prematurely, I've given up on the season. I've been in the game for a long time. I've unlocked all five regions, filled one wall to wall with Omega buildings and turned another into an art project. I have more rewards than I could ever display without multiple new regions being introduced. I've still got some empty space to build in, but at this point, I've got no motivation to do so. Neither the free nor the premium mayor's passes are half as valuable as they once were, the tasks to earn the rewards are more repetitive than ever, cheaters are more prevalent than ever, and the response from customer service is deafening silence. I've been in the game for a long time. I'm starting to consider deleting nearly a decade of investment and enjoyment. I'm not the only one; I won't be the first out the door and I **bleep** sure won't be the last. Fix your **bleep**, EA.88Views6likes1CommentEA Sold for $55 Billion
From Forbes on 9/29/2025: Electronic Arts will go private in a $55 billion all cash buyout led by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, Silver Lake and Jared Kushner’s Affinity Partners, the largest leveraged buyout on record and a high stakes wager that one of gaming’s most iconic publishers can scale faster off Wall Street. The article talks about profits and other business, but barely mentions gaming. I have a bad feeling about private equity firms taking control of any business. Not sure they'll focus much on Buildit. Only time will tell.233Views5likes5CommentsBlack Friday Event Track
Is anybody else's black friday event track not working? I completely forgot it existed until I got the last chance notification today. It's still showing zero but I've been progressing on the Nordic Nirvana event track. Was I supposed to purchase something to be able to access this feature? Edit: thank you for the replies! I just started playing earlier this year and this was the first time I've seen a bonus track like this. Google led me here but I was did eventually find the rules for the event through the app 🙂Solved141Views0likes3CommentsAcquiring Trains, Is it really possible?
I enjoy using train stations and track layouts to enhance my cities. I’ve mostly used them to aquire assets I can’t find anywhere else. I’ve attempted to purchase additional trains several times. Each time I’m purchased a Train card, I recieved immediate confirmation acknowledging the purchase however, the next time I look I’m back to 0/15. My purchase vanished. Very frustrating. I think the train options and layouts is an overlooked opportunity for EA SimCity Buildit developers. Also, where in the hell can I spend the seasonal currency or golden tickets? I’ve been playing this instance nearly daily on my iPad for over two years, with a couple short breaks here and there. There’s a lot of opportunity to enhance and grow this product. But, I get the feeling its’ an unwanted step child in the EA portfolio.110Views1like1Comment
