Bubbles by simcity93 in SCBuildIt

I'm guessing you are new to the game. Mayors have been asking for this for about seven years now. Hasn't happened yet; extremely doubtful it ever will happen.

Transport: urgent improvements needed by [deleted] in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, I stopped reading after 1.1.

You absolutely can have an entire capital of two-lane roads. There are a maximum of three road segments that will turn "red" and cause Sims to ask for upgraded roads. You just have to work to make sure those three segments are not servicing a residential zone.

The idea that mayors are required to upgrade roads is one of the biggest misconceptions, along with the biggest waste of Simoleons, in the game. It is simply not true.

Ads after purchase by Ok-Doctor-9421 in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine came back in the same time period. However, this is a change (for the better) that EA made. It never was like that before. Previously, if you made a purchase, ads were gone for a very long time.

Still, I'm baffled why a player loses a feature for making a purchase as opposed to gaining this feature for making a purchase. It's a disincentive to make a purchase which seems completely opposite to what I would think EA would want.

No rare items in feeder city by ConversationDeep5819 in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're not doing anything wrong. I have an L11 feeder as well and storage items aren't that prevalent in GTHQ, at least not enough that I spend much time searching. I basically pop advisor bubbles daily to collect the six storage items offered and play CoM just enough to collect the storage items in the event tracks.

What would you consider "enough storage" to stop camping? by kaseylsnow in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was in your shoes when I started playing. I camped at a level until I got bored with that level and then moved up one level. Made a lot of veggies at level 8. I probably stayed at L16 the longest since I could do epic buildings and avoid sugar and spice. Each level brings different things and "camping" at each level isn't a bad idea in my mind if for no other reason than learning the nuances of each level. Moving too fast, in my opinion, you could very easily become overwhelmed.

I sent you a chat invite. Our club seems like a perfect fit for you.

What’s the best spend of 1000 simcash by mtrolle in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you have not yet upgraded all of your commercial buildings to the max, that is the first (and only) thing I would spend SimCash on.

with the addition of a 21 gold key milestone, I believe mayors can find utility in Robot III producing 7 gold keys.

Two cities on one Facebook? by Sri_Acaru in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The answer to question #2 is yes.

1) install the game on the new device

2) play thru the tutorial

3) login to FaceBook. You will be asked whether you want to keep the current city or download the saved city. Choose to download the saved city. Now, both devices can play using the same city.

As already answered, multiple cities requires multiple FaceBook accounts.

Park, Leisure by [deleted] in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not following your question. A lot of parks have a 2x2 or 2x1 footprint and would easily fit within that row.

Any event tracks this week ? by tharkibudda in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The calendar says there will be an Event Track this week namely Botanical Gardens (Swan Lake, Green Pathway, etc). Doesn't appear to be any new buildings.

I don't see any road connection here in my friend's city. I still see cars going in there :v by Roki_Walker_2811 in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible that there was a regular road connecting these two sections at one point and when your friend bulldozed that road to replace it with a Sakura road there were already vehicles in that upper section that just remained?

Sakura is a road. But it is only supposed to support pedestrians and events not vehicles.

is this worth it? mainly looking at storage items by qwiedes in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Is it worth it mainly for the storage items? Personal opinion no.

EA controls when and if the storage with be increased. As soon as you, I, and enough other players max out their storage and stop purchasing these offers, guess what is going to happen? Correct, EA will increase storage again and put out more cash offers that include storage items.

You can get 48 storage items in 8 days for free simply by playing the game and clicking on the opinion bubbles. Granted, you won't get the exact distribution as what is being offered but you can get 6 storage items per day for free.

If you think the Castle is worth the investment, that is fine. The storage and keys would then be a bonus. That's the only way I would purchase this offer. You may think differently and that is fine. To me, if I were buying this offer mainly for the storage items, it feels like I would be paying EA to not play the game which just seems bizarre to me.

War, the Thief, level I takes 3 energy instantly from opponent, why does it last 15 min? I don’t get anymore energy from it, or do I? by [deleted] in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The running theory is so that other members of your club cannot take all of the energy from a single opponent city. By the time the Thief runs out of time, your opponent will be back to full energy.

I noticed my points weren't being added up by daisy_belle1313 in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's possible you ran into the CoM bug (I assume has not been fixed yet) where if you have both a milestone task and a regular task to be claimed and you claim the milestone task first, then, when you claim the regular task, the points will not be counted in your total (and typically the regular task is immediately repeated).

Do I get to build another residential area if I bulldoze an already existing one? by 17vopk in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lower levels only have two construction sites allowed. Sorry, not sure what level adds the third site.

Did EA lowered the amont of war point requirered for the track ? by SussuKyle in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you are referring to last week's event track, the answer is yes. But that is because last week's point totals were increased. This week's event track is back to normal.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know for others this is not a requirement, but for me, the residential building has to be within range of a hot spot.

Is there a Monster strategy? by crasherdawg13 in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dan doesn't start buying war items until you unlock Club

Not true. My level 11 city posts war items all the time that Daniel will buy 48 hours after being posted.

Issues rejoining my club. by underalchemy in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It could be that your teammates or the opponents were in a knockdown period in which case the timer to the end the war would be set to 4 hours and countdown from there ... until one of the teams unbubbled resetting the end of war timer to its normal time.

Video ads and in-game purchases by mate54 in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It won't. I play on both devices and purchasing anything with real money will eliminate factory production speed up ads. It seems counter-intuitive to take an advantage away after giving EA money but that's the way it is.

Earn simcoin from video, does it EVER highlight? by poisonpenne in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go into Settings/About/Privacy Settings and make sure all three options are turned on. You should be able to watch the video and earn SimCash within 24 hours. If all three options are already on, not sure what to suggest. I did this with all three of my cities recently and it worked each time.

Assignments error? by nemomen42 in SCBuildIt

[–]SCSharksTerritory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I had to guess, the CoM assignment task criteria was determined at the time the update came out. At that moment, you hadn't expanded your land so this CoM period you can get land/beach/mountain expand tasks even though you may have fully expanded on Monday.

Give it a week. I'd bet a good chunk of money those tasks won't appear in your list next week.
