when i click easy mode, it shows that there will be no build time for my own buildings, but there still is and i cant even use regular t money to speed it up, i have to use gems or ads :vomit:
please remove the build time from easy mode

foggy scaffold

Easy mode has always had build times

#

Perhaps there's some misunderstanding

marble peak
#

no build time for easy mode on pc

marble peak
#

and its my own buildimg

foggy scaffold
#

Okay so is your issue PC or iOS

#

Your giving me conflicting things here xD

marble peak
#

my issue is that its inconsistent

#

ios has buold yime

#

and pc has none

foggy scaffold
#

Mobile has build time

marble peak
#

and on ios it says no nbuild time

foggy scaffold
#

Consistently

#

My best guess would be that the text was never changed to reflect when iOS was moved back to the IAP format

#

But I do get your annoyance

#

I understand 100% where you are coming from

marble peak
#

ok but i want build time for easy mode :

#

i meant

#

no uild

#

nfp no

foggy scaffold
#

I wouldn't expect to see that

marble peak
#

no build time

#

y

#

theere is none on pc

foggy scaffold
#

PC is paid for so it doesn't make answer sense to have no-build time be something that buyable

marble peak
#

wym

foggy scaffold
#

But let me look more into this

#

I am not an iOS user so I am not sure when that text was added

marble peak
#

makes more sense than ads or gems 🤮

foggy scaffold
#

Your not telling me anything new

marble peak
#

the n clarify

foggy scaffold
#

There's a reason I paid for the PC version of the game xD

#

But devs gotta make money so they can work on the game

marble peak
#

ok butt

foggy scaffold
#

Give me a few

marble peak
#

i want like a version do thetojw lik epc where i buy full access no in app purchase

#

so i can support dev

#

without stupid in app prudjase

#

why every mobile game does this

#

🤮

@delicate roost any reason for the difference in wording on Android and iOS versions of the New City menu when relating to easy mode. See the picture I replied to verus the one the user posted directly below

#

To my understanding the App store charge devs per app

#

So that is not economical to do

marble peak
#

ok but

#

1 on app purchase for lik3 full access

#

solve everything

#

😭

#

then those people who want semi access can pay for the small in app purchase or whatever

foggy scaffold
foggy scaffold
#

The plugin store

#

The DLC content

#

Sandbox

#

Uber mode

#

Online mode regions

#

The landmark content

#

To name some of the big ones

marble peak
#

would it be hard to just remove the big fat ugly watch ads or pay gems screen if the user owns the full access in appp curchase

#

🥶

foggy scaffold
#

I think your missing my point

marble peak
#

that is

foggy scaffold
#

That it is not economical, logical, or practical for a two person dev team to try and upkeep 5 versions of a game when only 3 are needed

marble peak
#

wym

#

just remove the ads screen if u own it??/

#

unlock paid building if u own it???/

#

whats hard about that

foggy scaffold
#

The plugin store
The DLC content
Sandbox
Uber mode
Online mode regions
The landmark content
To name some of the big ones

#

These things allllllllll work differently

marble peak
#

yes so

foggy scaffold
#

Okay I don't wish to keep this up with ya

marble peak
#

bro

foggy scaffold
#

I hope the dev can point you in the right direction

marble peak
#

what is hard

#

y cant it just remoev ad screen

foggy scaffold
#

But unless you need support with a game issue then I will be heading out now

marble peak
#

ok bye

#

if premium then give access else show ads 😭

#

is the code really a spaghetti mess

foggy scaffold
#

Last thing I will say about it. It's not about the ads. It's about how the gems are used as the interactable

#

The if else statement logic is terrible

marble peak
#

ok

#

what idf

#

i pay to remove the whole gem mechanics as well

#

😭

marble peak
#

all of what youre doing seems to just support degrading the convenience of the experience of the user here for more money 😭

#

i just wanna have more qol features and support the dev

#

Or maybe Mandela effect

#

Yeah no I found a video to back me up

# marble peak

nah, if it werent for the freemium the theotown community wouldnt be this big

#

but there should be an transaction that makes the game function like the pc one

#

no diamonds

foggy scaffold
#

Instead of telling me something I'm well aware of

delicate roost
#

What am I supposed to do with those screenshots

foggy scaffold
#

Refer to the wording

#

That implies build time is disabled

#

And then notice that they're clearly taken from a mobile version of the game xD
