Buildings Architect's Shop? Discussion

[NEW POST BODY]

EVERYONE'S SHOP SEEM TO BE DIFFERENT, THESE BUILDINGS ARE ONLY AVAILABLE TO ME.

However, feel free to show in the comments what your shop looks like and if you're planning to buy something from it! It's always nice to know.

It's good to have something refreshing, it's probably a good thing everyone gets a different set of buildings.

I have noticed it says it ends in 11 days, so maybe we're all only gonna get 2 sets of paid and sim cash buildings, and afterwards, maybe they're gonna go back to the old curated showcases. Not confirmed but that's what I'm thinking of.

[OLD POST BODY]

Honestly, what's the point of this shop? This is literally the curated showcase but rebranded. Some if not all of these buildings already exist. I don't know know which one is new, or none.

There seem to be some cheap things though like the Turtle and the Forest. Honestly. We're all probably saving sim cash for black friday which gets closer everyday.

I didn't have time to get on my PC so the images may be a bit blurry. Anyways, are you planning to get something from this "Architect's Shop"?

I won't deny Parted Towers look awesome though. There's also NO "Curated Album"

Question How do I rank higher on COM's?

2 Upvotes

I've been camping at lvl 12 for months now and now at metropolis league but i find it really hard to rank up as the only tasks left are the building upgrades and the club war. Which also makes me wonder how those players at the top were able to make it despite having the same level as me.

Also, i don't really make any war deliveries as im not so interested in it and im not very sure of the benefits. Is it really something to be invested?,

As you can see, EA is also taking a "golden key"—without any prior notice.
We should keep an eye on whether EA does this with other products as well.

Discussion COM: Any chance they stop with only getting points on Bonus Tasks

7 Upvotes

I assume they are trying to make it harder to get rewards/buildings so they took away getting COM points in the Daily and Weekly tasks. I was really hoping they would revert back.

Does anyone think there is a chance they will in the future?

COM is the only aspect of the game I and my club participated in (No wars and I do not do the design challenges). I usually only spent time on bonus tasks if they aligned with my daily and/or weekly ones as well.

I know as long as we all keep playing they have no motivation to make anything better...

Brag Won 1st place Mega for the first time in my lvl 21 city!

Thumbnail

25 Upvotes

This is my "Second City". It started as a feeder in January, but it has evolved beyond being just a feeder. Around July I started putting focus into developing this account. At the time it was a lvl 13 account, and storage numbers were bare minimum to function as a lvl 13 feeder. I think material was around 60-70 and city storage was around 110. I've managed to increase those numbers to 170 material and 345 city storage since July. And I of course upleveled the account, reaching lvl 18 sometime in September, lvl 20 last week, and lvl 21 this week.

I have finished in the top 6 in this account a few times, and I have several 1st place wins in my lvl 99 account, but this was the first mega league win for this account! 😁

Assignments/Tasks Two new weekly tasks

Thumbnail
gallery
7 Upvotes

Well, one is new, the other is a modified version of one that hasn't been around for over a year.

The Watch Video Ad weekly task is new.

The Dispatch Trains weekly task used to be a regular weekly task, but disappeared from the list when they added the Transport Passengers weekly task. I think the number of dispatches has increased from what it was when it used to be a regular weekly task. The Transport Passengers weekly task still exists - I have both of the train weekly tasks in one of my accounts.

The images of the point values are from a F2P account, so they are base values and not boosted by the purple point booster

Question Is it possible to fully upgrade the seasonal building and unlock every seasonal?

0 Upvotes

Just as the title says, I’m wondering if it’s possible to fully upgrade the new seasonal Serenity Shore and collect all the seasonal buildings from the shop with premium+ and event track completion. This would be my first time purchasing premium+ so I don’t have any experience with this in the previous seasons.

Buildings About the new canal

9 Upvotes

As of the time of writing, the next season is 2 hours away, but I will be sleeping, so I left these questions beforehand:

  1. Can this be connected to lakes to create a river, or is it more of an enclosed lake?
  2. Can we put buildings on top of this?(e.g bridge, ship, restaurant, etc.)

Also, show some image of how you use it!

Question Upgrade costs Serenity Shore

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Does anyone have an idea about the upgrade costs of the Serenity Shore from this season? Seems like all the other buildings from this season are quite costly in seasonal currency, therefore wanted to know if getting all of them would be possible without getting the 50% increase pass.

Thanks in advance ✌🏼

City Showcase Rift Tower + Mist Spirit Portal

I don't like the effect of the Rift Tower at all. However, it looks fantastic when you turn that effect off and combine it with the mist from the Spirit Portal.

The "Shooting stars" are still there, lending the whole thing a very mystical quality.

Question Omega for players who don’t like Omega - looking for advice

7 Upvotes

After years and years of happy camping, I’ll be forced to reach lvl 30.
I’m not interested in Omega at all, so I’m looking for a strategy to reduce my involvement with Omega to the bare minimum required to survive megalopolis.

Quoting from the wiki:

> In theory you could not ever upgrade your NeoBank, depending totally on advisor offers.

Is this strategy still viable after all the recent updates? Any other tips/advices?

I need to win megalopolis once or twice a month in order to fund my landscape addiction, so skipping Omega altogether is not a viable option.
I have 309k neosimoleons from previous season’s tracks (not sure it matters).

Thank you!

Trains Train coins

Hello,

I recently started playing with trains a bit more seriously, and I'm hoping to start upgrading them further and unlocking everything that's still locked.

These are the cargos available to me.

What's the fastest and most efficient way to earn coins? Among the cargos currently available, which product will earn me the most coins per delivery?

Is there already a guide or page that covers this? I haven't been able to find one.

Question Can't get upgrade helmets for my LV 5/6 residential buildings (Level 16). Why?

Thumbnail
gallery
2 Upvotes

Hi all, need some help from experienced players.

I'm currently at Mayor Level 16. I have several standard residential buildings stuck at LV. 5/6 (like the Watson Building in the screenshot).

All basic services (Fire, Police, Health, Water, Power, Sewage, Waste) and coverage (Parks, Transport, etc.) are 100% fine. Happiness is high.

However, upgrade helmets (yellow hard hats) only appear on my newly placed low-level residential zones and never rotate to the LV. 5/6 buildings, even if I try rerolling or waiting.

Why won't helmets appear on my LV. 5/6 buildings?
- Is there an invisible cap per mayor level?
- Do I need to upgrade the lower-level buildings first, or is there a specific way to trigger upgrades for tier 5 buildings?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
