I don't really blame them for increasing the price of 'rental' to two bux, since before the update, so long as you were able to cycle new bitizens into existing slots for the Dream Job reward, you could infinitely cycle new bitizens into your apartments until you got what you needed. Now it costs you a buck doing that.
I just purchased 5 floors that became available this afternoon. 2 Residential, 1 Recreational, 1 Food, and 1 Imperial. # A total of 89 floors now; not counting Imperial Marches (haven't unlocked that one yet).
Has anyone else seen the come back and earn 15 bux message when the Death Star is idle? I've gotten it 2-3 times now and can't see anywhere to redeem it
uh oh I was just able to add a food level, even though that level was not visible in the Levels section. So it said I have 11/10... And then I tried to add a recreational level, which it allowed, but the death star says it's a food level. And then it said 12/10. So I restarted the app...and it looks like it restored. New food level: BONGO SANDWICHES New recreational level: PLANETARIUM New residential levels: CHISS APTS and TALZ APTS New imperial level: BLASTER REPAIR I'm building all five of them! I'm also at 341/1200 toward R2-Q5, with six days left on the Imperial Missions...
Oddly enough, I was able to do the same thing, and yes, all the levels say "FOOD" at the top of them, even the Imperial level. One can hope this doesn't end up corrupting our towers when the builds complete. The good news is, after R2-Q5, the reward looks unmistakably like a new level. Who knows how much that'll cost in 'medals,' though - probably 1500-ish. I'm already lamenting how damned long it's going to take to get dream jobbers for two new levels after how long it took to cycle in and out people to get three DJs for Panna City Medicines and three Level 8s (Android still doesn't have L9 retail employees) lined up for Imperial Marches. One can also hope that for the expenditure of time it takes to GET Imperial Marches, that it'll be a high-value retail level. EDIT: Force-stopping the app and restarting it fixed the "FOOD" glitch. And how damned hard would it be to add the "are you sure" dialog to the "?" bitizens to enable you to unlock scenes more easily? It's like the game is actively trying to punish you.
no trouble updating here, i think they fixed that a couple versions back? on another happy note this version has not crashed on me while playing or while in the background, has stability improved in the ios version to?
I saw it on my iPad just yesterday and when I started the app, there was a dialog that said "You were awarded 15 bux" or something like that, so I assume I immediately got them when starting the game. mnemo
I didn't have new levels to build so I just ejected the app from memory and restarted it. Voila, new levels to build. Crappy programming. That just cost 5 million coins. mnemo
Yep I'm an Android (KitKat 4.4.2). I take a backup every other day (Helium - no need for root) just in case, but I haven't lost any data since the update. I had just under 2mn credits before, and after the update 2 new Residential levels became available, both of which I was able to buy straight away. Yes, it is a little more buggy now. I've mentioned my pet peeves in a post just yesterday (game basically restarts a lot more - mainly when I try to farm for bux by adding a new DJ to a level), but everything is working fine.
Thanks for the info. Because of the Android bug it doesn't tell me / let me see what's being built. Just finished both the levels and finally was able to add the Sandwich Shop! Now I need to start playing a LOT more regularly to get the remaining levels (& more importantly for the new rewards - 6 days left!).
I just finished my 1st "Assigment" (from the three tabs). The green 'Finish' button lights up, but nothing happens when I click on it! I mean, earlier too, if I clicked anywhere - including jumping from one assignment to another, it would start the full slide-show again of what has to be done - 1. "Watch the Assignments level for holo-projections. They'll appear with tasks for you. Click the next arrow & 2. Assignments are lists of resources.... 3. Spend Imperial Credits to start... 4. Deilver Supple Office VIPs... After that there's a green tick which on pressing brings be back to the current assignment (which is complete). I see no way of redeeming the reward (97k credits)! Has anyone else noticed this yet? Do I need to finish all three assignments? I have been able to get the Service Medal rewards so far.
I'm still FAR away from finishing an assignment. The current 3 assignments require 30 + 32 + 30, 31 + 30 and 9 + 28 items, which really is an insult. mnemo
Yeah, I'm done with it. All they add is punishing and tedious "gameplay", never rewarding. I liked building the tower, art and music are great. but the mechanics are now way too hostile to te player
Yep ... this is now simply a rewardless grind ... The fact imperial tasks costs regardless and cannot even be started by supply officer ... I have 12 imperial levels and getting this rewards task done in the time feels like i am going to have having to dip in the game every 30m to make sure producing at full capacity to finish on time. Getting 3* shops is now expensive ... they're just ending the life of this game... Yet why am i still bothering with it?
I should have waited and checked this thread before downloading the update, like a trophy room but don't like the two item per imperial level.
Interesting how the silhouette of the Imperial Mission changes Apparently as you increase your # of Imperial Service medals toward the goal, the silhouette of the reward fills in a bit. Definitely looking like R2-Q5 for the 1200 Medal goal (goal #5). Just finished the Darth Vader mission that rewarded with 20 Imperial Bux. The holograms turn green in color when you've fulfilled the requisite resources. Still need to get that swiftest elevator (Infini-lift High Speed / 499 Bux).
Blaster Repair only has a single item - Barrel Replacement for five medals. Just paid 49 bux just to get done with this crap all the faster. Halfway done with R2-Q5. The only solace I can take is that I've managed to grind up to this much in 4-5 days, and I've still got a little over five left.
Do you have all 16 of the other Imperial Levels built? I'm 15 hours away from that Imperial Level done, but it's not worth the 49 Bux...
Yes, I have all of them built, and having an extra five medals per cycle is worth it to me, especially since I've no idea how much Imperial Marches will cost.
