Game not opening

ChristinaR33

I’m loathed in with Facebook and I hate that I have to reinstall the game. Once a month it won’t open at all and I have to delete it and reinstall it. Always losing my progress. PLEASE FIX!!!!!


Either incredibly time consuming or incredibly expensive

Apparently I can only have 1 hardware store at a time, and the hardware store only makes 1 hammer at a time, and it takes 15 minutes to make a hammer, but I need 3 to upgrade 1 residential building. 45 minutes to upgrade a building? :(. Or I can pay extra real dollars to make them faster. Awful. I have to add that other than extreme patience, no skill is needed to play or win, because the whole game is very scripted, and there is little freedom to play around. If I gave EA $50, I could have a huge teeming city in half an hour. Taxes do accumulate while the game is closed, so a play time of 15 minutes every other day is sufficient. So basically, don't play the game.


Not fun

The heavy handed money grab far outweighs the fun.


Good game but feels like game is manipulated

So… I’m offered by game to sell omega parts everyday. Every single day. My neobank is full. Overfill on purpose (83,000 out of 50,000 capacity from selling the game parts). I got them fair and square! Still, offers daily to buy omega parts. Then today… I use my last Contest of Mayors assignment in a streak 3/3 & it says gather 500 omega coins. Suddenly, not ONE offer to buy omega parts. All day. I keep restarting the game & nadda! RIGGED is what I call that!!!! I’m not spending 38,000 of my neosimoleons so I can re-collect 500. Rigged.


Help Needed

I’ve moved from Android to Apple recently and all my investment and effort for SimCity is hanging in a limbo - how do I transfer my city whose data was logged in the google play account to here ? Please help and save a very happy customer


Not like the olden days

If you’re a fan of the OG PC-based SimCity, you’ll be disappointed. SimCity BuildIt is like FarmVille or similar games where you basically wait around for items to be produced and watch ads to speed up production. The full map isn’t open to build on (you open it up in small segments by collecting items) & there is no zoning or fun highway or rail options anyway. There are no ongoing expenses to balance, no ordinances to pass. Overall it’s a decent game to play a bit mindlessly but it’s not very engaging.


GAME CREATORS PLEASE READ

I have been playing this game for quite some time now. When you first start, you are able to build and upgrade buildings pretty fast. It’s fun and exciting! But as you continue to progress, everything begins to get so hard and it takes days to upgrade a single building unless you are constantly working at it OR spending a crap ton of money on cash. Honestly I stopped playing because this just made me very unhappy. Like yeah I know y’all have to make money- and you will, but do you really have to make the game in such a way that it’ll take a lifetime to finish it unless you pay so much? Just please do one of two things. 1 make sims cash cheaper. Or 2 just make the game easier for a little longer. It shouldn’t take this long to upgrade buildings until we’re waaaay into it. Maybe copy clash of clans level of fairness. I wouldn’t say clash of clans is perfect either, but it’s sooo much more fair than this game.

Unless you wanna spend your own money that you would use to put food on your table for family, you can’t go anywhere in this game, they design it where you have to use your own real life money to expand your city, with little ways of doing it for free after achievement unlocks! Fox Thais EA!


Get it together!!

I used to play this game a few years ago and was going to reinstall it But based on all of the 1star reviews and what was being said Sounds like they don’t care about existing customers and fixing the issues Get it together guys! Now I’m not signing up Why don’t you read your reviews before bragging in the editors notes about what a wonderful game it is!
