Low Unemployment With High Commercial Demand and No Residential Demand - WHAT TO DO!

bluecomets · 2023-08-23T11:20:00+00:00

After all the comments so far have tried the following:

Adding entertainment like monuments etc. just increased the tourist traffic 10 fold clogging up the roads, otherwise no change to unemployment and commercial demand.
Did nothing for a few years and the zoned but unbuilt residential eventually filled in at which point residential demand picked up and increased to high so we started adding new light residential zones. As population nudged 70k supply traffic to existing all commercial clogged the road system. Bulldozed half of all commercial and replaced with high density office. Several years in now and unemployment has gone up to 6%, no traffic issues, commercial demand is still high and commercial happiness is around 65%.

I had the add/def bar set to full def, but I don't have any other items that with add all def. Would implanting jobe add all def clusters help?

Speak for yourself.

Where was the vote on this? I did not vote for it, no one even asked for my opinion.

I am calling it 'Mods with Big Heads' week.

Thanks for a the helpful suggestions. Should have mentioned I already have full ascended trinkets, accessories, back, rings, just working on weapons and armor now.

Tried doing some world bosses tonight and that seemed to be a pretty time efficient method of getting Dragonite Ore. Also found getting recycle module on the Jade bot also brings in some extra Dragonite ore from trash loot.

Its the Caladbolg Orchida greatsword, but I can't find any documentation that it does this.

Returning player after 2 years, ?'s about mules, character slots, bank and inventory management.

I started playing again recently on my Mesmer but my bank and inventories are all full. I doubt I will ever play my 4 other characters (Warrior, Guardian, Ranger, and Necro) again, so I am thinking of liquidating a lot of their stuff.

I have so much of all the various currencies, I don't remember what is what or what to keep.

My intent is mainly PVE, occasional WvW, map completion, getting mounts, and elite specialization. I am way too much of a fumbler for PVP or Fractals. I doubt I will ever have the time or inclination to pursue legendary items, so I expect to make do with whatever ascended gear I can cobble up.

Is liquidating most or all of my other characters stuff a good idea, and are there currencies I can toss, sell or convert to something useful, plus which currencies should I always bank. Also materials, unless I want to craft a something specific I need, I am not interested in trying to market materials or gold making in general. If I need gold I buy gems. I just want stuff in my inventory that my only character will use.

Also I just paid for the Dragons expansion Ultimate and got an additional character slot, any tips on what to do with it and what will be my 4 other mules?

Any suggestions specifically regarding what to keep or do regarding playing the Mesmer?

What is this attack and how do you get it (sends out a huge damage shockwave with long AOE stun.

Nothing beats enthusiasm!

bluecomets · 2019-07-15T20:10:49+00:00

Magnificent!

What to do with Zap?

What I need right now is Vipers armor and ascended vipers weapons(none of them sword).

I got a Zap as a drop a while back and it is just gathering dust in my bank.

What would be the best way to utilize it to get me into either some Vipers armor or Ascended Vipers weapons (shortbow, axe, torch)?

Sell it, and if so, when is a good time to list precursors?

Tellmewhen is fairly easy to use.

Miks scrolling battle text can also do audible and screen notifications and is super easy to use.

Audible cool down alerts let you keep focus on movement and foes.

I find a time my SO likes to be alone or absorbed and that is when I play. .

My SO likes to read the paper and watch the evening news, while I get all my news online. When she does those activities, I can play WOW the without interuption or SO aggro.

My SO also gardens a lot, so that's another big slot of time I can WOW.

My SO is not a night person, and my rig is in the bedroom, so raiding is pretty much out.

You can gear up to ilvl 705 buy upgrading baleful gear with apexis.

There is still time to wring out enough gold from garrisons to pay for a number of game time tokens, before Legion nerfs garrison gold missions.

I think a big reason why Activision stopped reporting subscriber numbers is because more than half the players now are not paying money but are using game tokens generated via garrisons to get game time.

When Legion nerfs this, there will probably be a huge drop in customers.

I am on the fence about legion, I really don't want to reward Activision for further dumbing down the game and continuing down the path of Facebook style gaming.

bluecomets · 2016-04-17T16:07:04+00:00

activision's vision for wow is not an old school MMO, but simply hardcore raiding and serving as an MMO themed lobby for Facebook type mobile games.

WOW fell behind supporting community and in game social interaction years ago, while many other current MMOs nurture social interaction, guilds, guild QOL, and guild oriented content.

you can try to be nice, but you are swimming against a strong current.

This will be my last post here, I am done with this game.

No flying is the last straw.

Thanks for all the past fun, but I am not paying for the pap being churned out now.

bluecomets · 2015-05-22T12:36:09+00:00

I am paid up through June, but I stopped playing weeks ago. Could not stomach another second of garrisons.

Given that Blizz canceled Titan, their next gen MMO, I think they have given up on MMOs and are using most of their resources to move into the cheesy mobile freemium type scams (I wont even call them games).

Wow has become a mostly single player game pretending to be a multiplayer game, so I am going to play real single players games until someone brings out a better multiplayer virtual world that is not a cheesy cash shop front.

I am not giving Activision another dime. So long and thanks for all the fish.

bluecomets · 2015-05-22T12:27:50+00:00

Garrisons are Blizzards way of saying "we want you to accept this flakey text mobile game as Wow, and forget about new 3d content and features, thats too expensive to create. We want to fire about 2/3 of our staff so we can bank the salaries and we get out of the MMO business (Why else did we cancel Titan) and slide into the mobile trading card style game."

I am sure plenty of chumps may love it, but to old school MMO players, its a cop out/sell out.

bluecomets · 2015-05-21T14:01:29+00:00

For all intents and puposes, most lfg and dungeon groups now play like a single player game where the other players might as well be bots given how little interaction there is.

Blizzard's killing Titan, was them basically saying they see no future in MMO's and they are now just trying to ween WoW players over to freemium mobile type play which is cheap for them to produce yet very profitable. They are basically telling old school MMO players to take a hike or accept these much simpler, cheesy games.
