Hey, so I've sorted through threads and been looking around because I assume someone's already pointed this out, but I just can't find anyone talking about this so forgive the potential re-post... But what's up with the Economic Center having the exact same design as the Curragh Engineering building?
At first I thought they made the Curragh available again for some reason until I went to build it.
Is this likely that they would recycle an existing building design, (it even has a different payout and collect time), and call it something else? and if so..why? It's weird, is all. :confused:

It may mean that the end is near?

Yes, this is a first that they have re-used the same building design twice for a building on your base. But most of, if not all, the buildings are original buildings from the map levels. So with this in mind, they are all recycled images.

Yes SGT Rud that is correct!

It's funny that they reused a reused + reused drawing - there are other drawings they could of used -

At the very least this is an example of extremely lazy programming - shows the really don't care about the game and or the people that work on it son't even play it - No?

No?


Yeah, unfortunately I figured that the end scenario likely just ends up boiling down to this.. probably nothing much further to read in to it than that.

I actually enjoy receiving new buildings/building designs (high income or otherwise) as most of my game-play revolves around growing & constructing my base.
Are we already to the point where the building designs are going to start being recycled, guised under different names?

"Coming soon: The Rational, Reasonable Scientist Lab."
"New LTE available today! Thee, uuhhh.. The *Unconcealed Gem*"

I agree - Best part of the game!

In fact.
Since there's nothing really else to cover in the OP, I'm gunna hijack my own thread and suggest "lazy remarketing attempts to rehash old LTE buildings."

I'll get it started with a couple more:
"Zambezi 1-hour Kinkos"
The "Arc de Forfeit"

More logically, we complained about how massive the dataset was becoming so recycling graphics makes sense and screws folks up at the same time....

I agree with Agent Orange, the game's data files aren't organized efficiently and so the addition of new stuff just contributes to data bloat.

Gree ran out of ideas on building design, nothing new here. They have always recycled unit designs, just check your inventory, many are the same just different name.

There really should release some new money buildings past level 50 , crime city has cash building level 185

What they need is better cash units, a new building that costs 1 billion and has high output maybe even a gold generating building

Just plain lazy of GREE.

Yeah, but there's lots of buildings on the maps which aren't used as buildings to buy, which could be used before reusing ltbs

That would be amazing. Lord knows we deserve it. Especially us daily players of upwards of 3+ years. (I know some people roll their eyes at those kinds of statements) but hey, we've stuck it out with Gree through a ton of ups and downs- and it would be a huge incentive and a really fun building to be a part of the inventory.
I still really enjoy game.. but then again, I don't place in LTQs and faction missions, etc.
The way I play the game is I build up my stats, I like to build my inventory, I build my base and IPH and I work towards maxing out faction bonuses on my own.

Can anyone actually see Gree ever releasing a LE Building that pays gold? That would be so cool.
The building designs itself too. The "Goldmine."

I'll put it right next to my elixir collectors! Sweet! Wait....
