Nightclub question

[Vile Lynn]

Good question, OP!

I never even bother collecting my HLP NCs anymore. I won't build them for my LLPs.
12/24/48s are the best bet for collecting on a timed schedule without being robbed.

Save for the LEBs.

NCs are really good if you don't have high IPH, great to build if you have a really low income it will help for future LTBs. For me they are useless now.

That's a good point. My nightclubs generate $90 million per day each, which equates to $7.5 million IPH. Since I don't always collect them on the hour and they get robbed occasionally, the real IPH is probably closer to $5.0M PH. Once my income is over $100 million per hour I will probably consider these worthless also...that will be a while for me, but congrats to you on getting your IPH up that high!

In general most advice here is about the same since game started or since LTB started. Opinions expressed are personal preferences, style etc.

If you are really starting out patience in building IPH is key. It's the only non gold part of the game (SA not withstanding and who knows how that will evolve)

If starting out you really don't have time to consider saving for LTBs or looking for time preferences. You need cash!

So the advice given by my2cents is correct and established by many of the old helpers in forum who have since quit.


LTBs are nice and lately relatively cheap. Who knows when gree will turn up the costs. A beginner can, at best, buy one or two of these LTBs and delay building or upgrading NCs. If you got the anniversary mod of building two cash buildings you do have an advantage.

Remember a clean small hood with just MT, Lofts, NC, LTB will save you money on land expansions as well. Have fun

Actually Mike's tattoo palace is the new best building.

Yeah your wrong there. If u have a newer account then the tsars teahouse is best, but if your account is older and u have pagodas then they r the best.

[hoene$$]

At first i love my NC´s. Then the gems.

[♚ZEUS♚]

I have only ltbs in my hood.... no other buildings except NCs....

Lvl- 81,
iph - 2 mill

If you can get an LTB with the money u have, its almost always better to get the LTB than saving for an upgrade.
An LTB is only available during a limited time, so if u miss it, you'll never get it. Just pay attention to how expensive the building is.. if it takes all your hard earned cash from a month or more, u'll prob miss the next LTB, so be careful to make the decision to go for an LTB or not.

How do you figure? Lvl 10 pagoda is 750k per hour and the tattoo palace is 2.3mil per hour.

Sparky's fireworks and Mikes tattoo are both higher iph than NC. However, NC is type A and makes for overall cheaper upgrade as far as IPH increase:cost ratio. Anyway, that was the only time I bought LTBs with my mini until I can get NCs fully upgraded.

Also it depends on play style. 24/12/8/6 all depends on how often you log on.

They're good for show and collecting during the day but expect to be robbed overnight. IMO they're just a better version of an 18hr building. You can collect them during the day at least, where as the 18hr buildings such as a Chop Shop are always almost robbed before I'm awake unless I collect it 6-8 hours into my day which is every other day.
So they're good for IPH but I would recommend getting LTB as much as you can since they're limited and nightclub will be around whenever you have a comfortable IPH.

P.S. They're very time consuming upgrade and build wise.

I got the NC when I was at 93k IPH, it took a while

Bump it Up

[reticlover]

Who ever told u that lied. Night club doesn't have the highest iph anymore. The fireworks stand has highest iph. Lvl 4nc is 500k iph. Lvl 4 sfs is 771k iph

At every lvl the fireworks stand has higher iph than any building in game
