LTB should be a building thats special, a LTB should be a build that people who missed it still want so badly...
no-one really wants the sl-ice rink, throwback arcade or this defense building..
Your right that ppl dont want the buildings, but they would like to have the loot that came from the buildings. I know i would if i didnt already have them!
If the defence building was affordable for me - disclaimer alert: I'm not some no iph noob, just to forestall the inevitable yapping doggies - I'd be going for it. But if Reaper's cost projections are accurate then it's just silly. Will be putting my money into buying the SLTQ weapons instead.
The past few LTBs especially the Arcade was a big F U to people who actually work on their iph. Although if it was a money bldg it would've been better..Quote:

I think I wish I had used my 100 million to buy the ltq weapons. I may sell the ltb as soon as it finishes unless the upgrades somehow aren't as expensive.
If you sell will you get 100 mil back?Quote:

I agree...I wish I did that on my mini as well...and then just bought it later in the 18-day LTB cycle.Quote:

Thanks. Can you extrapolate what the likely total defence boost is? Would it be worthwhile for anybody to do this except for the cars for finishing each levelQuote:

9. 230,000
10. 300,000
Plus the defence building defence % mod that I'm sure every syn has. So how many can we buy?
So the next question is: Will these d buildings prevent robs? or just look pretty? :) There is a reason we all sold our old buildings. Not true defense.Quote:

These will do absolutely nothing to prevent robberies. You need your defense to be about twice your rivals attack to prevent a robbery. With the new stupid rivals list, all your rivals have similar (or better) stats than yourself, so all of your rivals can rob you. If you increase your stats, you just get tougher rivals.Quote:

I think that this is fair. You attack someone and get retaliation no matter how strong you are.

You aren't real human beings who like oatmeal and micheal jordan..You don't have families..You are $$ to me..so too bad. Rob me back..I won't cry. I'll be thankful that i don't have to search for your name through the list anymore. All is fair..it's a game. Boo Hoo.
Fully agree with this. My philosophy has always been, for 4-6 hours a day I expect to be robbed because I'm sleeping; the rest of the day it's my fault if I don't collect on time. I don't get mad at the person, I attack that if it's worth it and if not I move on to the other 20 people who I notated that have high iph and I have had success robbing before. I manage to bank about $15-20 million a day between my iph ($281k) and robbing.Quote:

You appear on the rivals list and you can be robbed..so how the f did that help you? You threw 100m out of the window. I don't care if you throw your ipad and phone right after it..It's yours to do with what you wish. I was specifically talking about the people who think this bldg is slice bread and they are safe from the "scumbag" thieves now..WRONG ANSWER..Apologies to you though..Quote:

Congratulations. Gree has rewarded your complete incompetence when it comes to being self sufficient. All of us high income folks will either shut off our hoods and start the repayment process or just leave entirely. Lets see how you like robbing other folks at the bottom of this pathetically disastrous fecal filled barrel.Quote:

Now if 50 could be built, I might stop telling gree they are pieces of dung and belittling pathetic leaches. There needs to still be a way for high income folks to stop cold anyone with low income in game that doesn't deserve to set foot in our hoods.
Hey they have this game that my little girl plays and there is no robbing or anything on it..It's a disney game i think..You will love it..They probably give participation prizes when you lose! YAY!Quote:

Take your ball and go home?..WEAK. Here's the door junior. Take care.
I don't like the rivals list either and i want it back like it was. I haven't seen an IPH in the millions since it changed. So lucky ya'll..
Why aren't you addressing these complaints to people with 10 million iph at level 71 with 600k attack and defense? I mean..really? You want me to just say nah..Wouldn't be a nice gesture to rob them. How about those that work hard on attk and def? What's our advantage? What's the point? Should we call the game and go home all winners? Not me.
They put a rob button on there and i'm going to wear it out. I hope everyone robs me back. It's a game. It's fun. It's not real you know.
None of you low income folks seem to grasp the concept high income people are preaching. Your pathetically insufficient attempt at humiliation aside, robbing isn't the problem and never has been. The high income players should be able to defend themselves, in many cases, COMPLETELY, from low income scum robbing them. We are talking equality in defense and attack. It's a rather simple word, equality. The way things are set up now, low or no income is actually REWARDED. That is WRONG.Quote:

Sure robbing is a major part of the game. It is a crime game after all. What there isn't is any way to either effectively defend one's hood, or retaliate against players in a way that would hurt their activities. If you're going to design a game to represent organised crime those things should be reflected. Who in the real world would just sit back and let upstart rivals take slices of their pie unchallenged?Quote:

If a player who'd been robbed could beat up the robber, and that would stop them from attacking or robbing anybody else for a period it would impact on them nicely. Just keep hitting them every two hours and they'd soon come calling for a truce. :p
Wear it out. Don't give gree a dime. Each person has a fun aspect to the game they enjoy. My fun aspect was completely removed from the game.Quote:
