I get frustrated for two main reasons: 1. The global market tends to have too many of one item, either steel, or sugar/spices. 2. The storage-expansion items and the land-expansion items are way too hard to get without paying to get them.
@@ryanwalker2016 I'm no expert but what I do is try to ensure that my Sims are always happy. Try completing assignments at the Contest HQ , complete as much as u can. You can earn lots of coins that way or check out your Mayor's journal. It'll give you tasks to do which u can earn coins from. Also, at nights before I go to bed, I set my factories to high produce items of high demand, (eg, grass, watermelons,planks etc) Those stuff go quick . Save up as much coins as u can and unlock the first specialization for each category. Education and Transportation I think is at $40 000, the beach at $20 000 and Entertainment at $60 000 . This can help in boosting up your Sims , which in turn allows you to collect more coins (tax) . Once they're unlocked , it's easier to get the other items in their categories as most of them cost gold keys. Which u can get from doing deliveries or Vu Tower. I hope this explanation helps .
@@ryanwalker2016 So the best way to go about managing your levels is to get to level 15 and begin farming as may seeds as you can and turn them into vegetables, this will net you loads of cash so you can get the best Utility's available. And you will want to have at least 31k saved up before you upgrade to 16 to get the best medical building available. Be careful of going to level 17 because your Global Market will be practically unusable and flooded with Sugar and Spice
@@margierios8743 ..that's right ..it's a personal desition..I keep small and nice cities will good services as if they were real ones .. don't like megacities too much crowded !
(Haven't watched the whole video yet) I hate how as soon as you get to a certain level, for example level 14, all of the sudden all your people get extremely mad for not placing a service, and they assume you have all the money in the world.
I get it! I made a video detailing how to manage growth and leveling with demand so as to never have that problem. I forget the exact title, but it's in my vids. Maybe it will help.
I am now at level 21 and I have more than 95% of happiness in my city I actually saved money by not buying anything and selling the items that I produce and I bought all the services and parts to make sure no one needs anything so it just depend on how you think and how you manage your money or creating your own strategy
So true! I've got wise to that now. I check what the next level will open up (tap on the level number in top left corner). If it's something blue, like police or health centres, I will not upgrade buildings until I have a shed load of money.
The worst thing by far in the game is the market being packed with sugar oh my god just sugar even metal is rare seeing people just spam sugar for 0 reason
Just a little info for newbies: Don't just sell anything to the sims that request items. Check to see how much you would be able to sell it for in the market. This will help you avoid loosing money on your hard earned resources, and it can give you more money than what you would get in the market. For example: I got an offer to sell 2 metal for 30. In the market I would have only gotten 20 for 2, so I made an extra 10. On the flip side they wanted 6 nails for 260, but selling 6 in market would give me 480. So CHECK your sim offers before you agree.

I agree with the fact that leveling up is a disadvantage. When I started playing this game, the beach, mountain, and even different types of homes (Tokyo, Omega, etc.) was nonexistent. There was no contest of Mayors and certainly not Wars. You could actually refresh Global Trade as often as you wanted (no 30 sec. wait), so leveling up was considered a positive as you could still find the items you needed. The point of the game or at least how you achieve a larger/ better city has changed completely. This is why the level system no longer makes sense. I wish EA would have figured out the direction of the game or at least planned ahead better so that the additions/changes to the game wouldn't directly interfere with it's original setup. However, I do understand EAs decisions. Before the game was something you checked a few times a day, maybe. Now it's almost necessary to check multiple times, so I'm sure as a result the more time people spend on the app the more money EA makes. Financially, it makes perfect sense. As far as game play, not really.
TL DR - 1) Advertising makes not just the one item, but your whole depot available to global. So beware! 2) War deliveries - Skip the time-consuming deliveries, and ones which are expensive. 3) Energy efficiency - Everytime your energy bar fills up completely, you are losing potential points. If you're under a shield, there's not much you can do, but if you're not, you should attack before your energy bar fills up. 4) Focus on just one rare item set - (for example, focus only on beach at one time. If you keep collecting multiple things like land and beach at the same time, it clogs your storage.) 5) Leveling up is a bad idea because while you unlock new items, you are now required to produce them as well. Also, in the contest of mayors, high level people means more experienced people who may be more willing to spend simcash on their assignments. I hope it's alright that I have added this, and masjwar isn't offended. I want to know what makes you think Disco Twister as one of the best attacks. Movie Monster I understand, but what, in your opinion, makes Disco Twister so good ? Let me know your thoughts.
I have conferred with the Masjwar, and they are not offended. :) I do feel your summation, while covering the basic points of the video, can leave players who don't understand (for whatever reason) what is stated still in a state of confusion no matter how much they reread this. Point-for-point, energy for score, magnetism is the absolute best disaster in the game. However, due to the excessive amount of items required, a majority of players will not be using it as their primary disaster. "Average" disasters are one for one energy to damage and items required to damage. As you progress through the disasters, disco twister has some of the more easily accessible items needed to launch (in my experience), as well as a better than average ratio of items needed for damage gained. I hope that makes sense without being too long of an explanation.
masjwar totally agreed! Magnetism is the best, considering energy to points ratio, but it needs too many items. BTW, Disco Twister is my favorite too! Most wars I just keep using Disco Twister, sadly I don't have Movie Monster yet.
It is perfect lmao i started playing again yesterday cuz i gave up like 1 year ago and my progress didnt save and i had stuff that u couldnt get but oof
Levelling up is a big No! I realized that when I was about level 22 and rushed to unlock fast food restaurant thinking that the black biscuits would help me make coins, but i later realized that in all products, the profit is not more than 400 coins. In addition to that, as u level up, rarely required products flood the global market and you won't be able to get most of the good products that are necessary. I had to create a new account, build a new city from scratch to access the old good market, then trade with my old city...it is helping 100% and i stopped levelling up. Point of correction: It is not only your club members that can access you shop if you don't advertise your items, your facebook friends who play the game can also access your shop. Thanks for the good work.
Thanks for the support and agreement. I did mention that FB friends can access the depot as well (approximately at 5:03) but it was brief and in passing.
As I said in my video If you dislike something but you don't say why it is kind of pointless. If you explain why you don't agree or don't like something other people can understand. Thanks.
This is so important. Levelling up is a nightmare. It makes everything harder. When you needed a few nails to build, now they ask for corn or cream. Also the contest of mayors is now harder. I have a few questions. 1. Is the Vu tower important/beneficial? I feel like it’s a waste of 40k at my level (28) 2. How do you avoid levelling? Would it be wiser to just stick to making and selling products and buying up more land space?
I agree with the levelling up. Just went 14 to 15 and a load of problems arose that I couldn't afford to sort out. Maxing things before levelling makes it easier in the long run.
Been playing for a while now and the best thing to do is: Always have metal, wood and rubber in production. Don't spend your coins on recommendations the game gives you unless it's very necessary. Try as much as possible to join a club, an active club and compete in the contest of mayors. And also the design contest too engage in that. Try your best to engage in wars when your club is at war, you'd get sim bucks from this too.
You talk about levelling being the issue to not finding items in GM, I disagree and actually think that once we reach a certain level the algorithm changes from showing us what we want and need to get us hooked on the game to actively inhibiting us getting what we want and need to Drive up monetised purchases primarily but also Keep us lower, playing longer to encourage monetised purchasing or if we use the watch an advertisement feature the more we play the more we watch still equaling revenue for the company. The thing to remember is games are no longer innocent, when something is annoying and doesn’t make sense it’s normally linked in to somehow driving up revenue
Honestly dont even play this game that much, but this guy put in effort and was thorough to answer any questions that could come to mind about this game. Why you guys complaining how long it is?
I like all the detail, but I think no one would want to sit here for 22 minutes on topics that can be summed up in less than 3-4 minutes. If you were to keep up this long time, try to put more entertainment into it to make it seem more appealing and so less people click off. I'm not trying to be mean, I'm just suggesting. Thank you for understanding.
Stop feeding your buildings as much as possible around level 20 and keep the leveling up as slow as possible. The yellow box on the top left keeps giving you sim bucks every 24 hours for a single commercial The items you can make are very necessary to sell and make lots of coin
I think another thing some people seem to forget (or maybe not realize) is to open the daily bonus chest that shows up with little red dot next to the SimCash. (Especially since they do a new one each 24 hours , but they don't compile for you to open if you skip out on them for a few days). Thanks for the video, can't wait to watch more from Ottawa🍁🍁Canada
I'm new and haven't watched all your vids yet, but I always love seeing how people have done their city layout and would love check yours out! And of course, always interested in Profit/Production! :)
Aditya Jha my thoughts exactly! He pays for some monthly allotment of SimCash and I don't know what else is included (saw it on another reply on a different comment). So that explains it, methinks! My jaw about dropped when I saw his storage! Here I was proud of myself for being able to store 75 items, and selling the items that would expand City Storage because for me, 75 is enough! Lmao!!
The third mistake is no longer important because energy regenerates at 5 min per energy. And unless you’re scoring over 60,000 points in a war that would not be important. I would assume the developers changed it to 5 mins when they added jp’s and other power ups because that made more sense for maximum jp efficiency.
I love what you said about levelling up. I’m level 83, and I can’t seem to get passed city league anymore. It sucks! I did realize this problem when I started noticing all these low level players getting the big prizes (that I was trying to win) in their city’s. I hope SimCity starts rewarding us better for levelling up. Seems unfair at the moment. My storage is currently 545, so not sure how high it goes. I know it only goes up by 5 each time now, which takes a lot longer to build up.
I agree mostly with your advice about setting a priority on what specialty items you keep in storage, but I do like to keep a few of each type in storage because they are often needed in the regional export HQs.
the leveling up is so real, especially for beginners. the services suck as they are really expensive and since ur a beginner, u have limited coins. if i can go back in time, i would always check the things I'll get before leveling up to be more prepared.
I remember when I was 11 years old and I had opened the airport in about two weeks of playing, but i didn’t understand the game so I had no money because I would just spend spend spend and I ended up deleting this game. Now I’m 17 and wish I hadn’t deleted the game because I haven’t even opened the ship depot😔.
Even though it shows sugar and spice tap one,see what they have for sale. Then go to the trade HQ it will have different items. Coming directly from your city you will always see sugar and spice.
Do not accept Sim Offers asking for items used to expand the city’s border or increase city storage capacity. Do not accept Sim Offers asking for Omega items you currently need to expand Omega storage or Neo Simoleon wallet capacity. Therefore, do not accept Sim Offers that will hinder expansion. If you want to pay for SimCash, wait for a sale.

@@GG-nv4vl How do you join the club? I haven’t played this game since 2015, and if I recall all this stuff wasn’t there back then. I also had to reset my progress so that was a giant pain.
@@erikallen3804 Yes me too i had to restart my progress too but you can rebuild quickly :) to join you first reach level 17 then click the island in the ocean and search for my club
You're absolutely right when you say that levelling is usually a bad thing. Keeping this in mind, is there a certain level where you would advise a player to park themselves at and start trading for coins before moving forward?
I think everyone should play in the way that most suits them. For me, based on in game goals I have and wanting to be in a club, I think in hindsight that once I hit level 18 I would have tried much harder to reduce the speed at which I leveled up. Sadly I think its impossible to prevent leveling while playing the game as its made, though.
I would actually put road planning as the first newbie mistake, but as we can see, you didn't plan a thing. For optimal coverage of Services (specifically Fire or Maxis Manor 22x22), a grid of four rows running 12 residences long is best. I'm only level 25 right now a couple months in, so that might kinda change when I expand into another grid towards the mountains, but eyeballing it looks like it will fit another in nicely. I totally agree with the holding back on leveling up for as long as possible, and how much harm unlocking new items and features does. I rushed up to level 15 a bit too quick and found I didn't have enough Simoleons to get all the basic services running so that hurt pretty bad for a while with scary red faces and low taxes. I might keep going to 30 just to get started on Omega stuff, but maaaan the storage limit is a real bitch. I would say, it's probably best to have five slots for each material and product able to be made. This will leave enough room to collect the expansion, Vu, and war items with relative ease as well, I think.
Thank you so much for the comments. For me, I wanted my city to develop in front of me as opposed to having a pre developed City, if that makes any sense. Thus my lack of Interest in a logical pre-planned road system. But I do agree with what you are saying.
I'm new to the game (started 2 days ago). So this came really helpful. The trading part was most useful i think! And how to earn sim cash. I also don't like leveling up because when I did it initially, I was left without enough simuleons to do things like provide more electricity, so that really stressed me out! So leveling slow is good for ur mental health too! :) Then leveling slow and trading a lot allowed me to save and buy dept of health and a school. All my factories are upgraded at lvl 11. Its a joy to play at such pace.
I'm sorry if you felt that i was being unfair, but the title of your video suggests that you are going to tell us something we are all doing wrong! If it was aimed at beginners in the game, then you should have called it, 'a beginner's guide'. I then went on to add a couple of useful hints, to further help your viewers, but instead of thanking me, you implied that I'm not a nice person, and that I have no respect for new players. I am very helpful to new players, as are everyone else in my club, we assist them with upgrade items, war items etc, to help them progress in the game. We give hints and tips when needed, and have helped build up many new players cities. My comments about the war were based on my observations and experience, what i said, regarding some of the comments made to your video, were not aimed at new players, they were aimed at those who have obviously not taken any notice of the games tutorials, as when you progress through the game, everything is explained to them, but i apologise if I offended anyone. May i just say that if you are going to post videos then people are going to critique them, So take the criticism rather than getting defensive, and attacking people.
This is so hard to watch! You take 7 damn minutes to explain advertising which should really take you 60 seconds at most. I couldn’t watch the rest, it’s just so painful!!
masjwar I did find another channel, one that wasn’t so long and full of unnecessary crap. Also the uploader doesn’t whine like a b*tch when criticised. 🙂
It's ok. That's why you like short videos. You are too used to bullshit, lies, and no explanation or follow up. Merry Christmas although all the other peeps would probably have preferred all the links to your amazing finds. No presents for them.
I agree, lvl up slowly. I've been at lvl 24 for a few months. Unlocked all land/beach/mountains with ease and have nearly 600 storage. 100% happy, population over 700k, over 7million simoleons and 5k simcash. I may never lvl up again
@@arikii7385 visiting cities. popping thought bubbles. buying from global market. buying from your club mates. and to me: having a second account/ city. the smaller one as a support. that can be used for getting stuffs U cant find or get or earned from ur main account. and also U can store ur items on ur 2nd account by selling or buying among ur 2 accounts as long as they re in the same club of course;)
@@masjwar nobody said anything about understanding though. It's just that you add too much unnecessary information. You'd get more views if you keep your video's succinct and to the point.
What do you think about holding off on getting the airport and the vu tower opened? When might be a good time to open these? By a certain level? By a certain amount of storage space?
My advice is not to spend your coins on Vu tower. You spend 40k just to destroy your city with a disaster, and then rebuild it for a couple of golden keys. It’s useless in my opinion.
But sometimes, you'll have assignments that requires you to destroy your city, rebuild it, and it gives you 2k to 3k points in my experience for the contest of mayors. I'd say it helps a lot when you want to win grand prize.
Good tips, thanks! I don't like skyscrapers, city becomes a jungle of buildings. I like lower size buildings, farmhouses, possibility to zoom in a little more and also the weather changes in the city just like real life.
I suggest using your sim bucks in buying expansion for your production buildings for example the one making the hammer you could save a lot of time not logging every time one of the hammers are finish so yeah also make nails every time you make metal dont sell unprocessed goods like wood metal plastic etc make your seed into vegetables then ofcourse after you made them sell them btw do not level up it would only bring more expenses than you can handle i suggest save up money first and plan ahead I am only level 15 and I am planning on having all of transportation buildings first before leveling up edit: wrong send
Perhaps my exposure to players is significantly higher than yours. My experience has taught me that you are absolutely incorrect. Your warm wishes and constructive comments are greatly appreciated though.
This is true, but then just as with your comment, there would be a lot left unexplained. And then I would have lots of questions like why or what do you mean or how and I would have to either make another video or I would have to respond over and over to answer the questions. My preference is to make everything clear the first time. And then I only have to deal with people complaining about my video being too long or too thorough. Thank you for the comment though.
Thank you for the info... there is a bit of nonsense out there that I struggle to follow along with... Been playing for 2 weeks, sitting at about 94,000 population, and all is happy, 100%... But now that everything is balanced out "FINALLY!!!" ... I am now afraid to add one more plot of residential, lol, fearing it will upset everything, this is crazy... and I do have a question, every tax cycle (1 to 3 hours? I think) the second the coin hovers above the building, and I click it ,I only get as of the 94,000 population and change, 135 simolians, per cycle.. Shouldn't that be more, sure, if I don't collect it for half a day or so, it is a much bigger pile of money... thank you for the info... I hit the sub button, will watch your.content later tonight after work today...
In regards to the "messing everything up" cycle... I totally get it. I made a video to help combat that exact issue (check out "Balancing Growth With Service Demand"). In regards to the tax revenue. I'm used to games allowing you to pick your tax revenue percentage (with 20% being a common upper level limit and starting number). Here you have no say, nor does it appear based on that criteria in any way. I don't know what you are basing your "taxes aren't enough" question on, but when I started playing I felt that way and this was why. That's why I'm adding this. The tax revenue seems unpleasantly low, but it is what it is. Wait till you start regional cities and find the population generates nothing. Lol.
I wish I had never added the train and am now wondering if I can remove it. I get asked for bolts, hats etc. It takes forever to earn enough to purchase those items and everytime you purchase the price increases. We should just be able to manufacture the needed items. Whoever thought this up should be FIRED!!
It sounds like the holiday themed factories then. Just another thing that makes the game more complicated while actually adding nothing. But it does increase the chance people willing to put up with it will spend money, and thats what its all about. The next cash grab. 🤬🤬🤬
I like the train but I feel you with added items that you just don't need to upgrade and do deliveries, etc. A tutorial for the mass transit train system would be great too.
I only put the train in as I was asked for bolts several times and I got tired cancelling out and waiting for 30 mins each time. I'd have never put in the train otherwise. Even now I just run it whenever I can just so I can buy bolts when needed.

Also i avoided levelling right from the start, as soon as i hit level ten i stopped building buildings XD i hate having so much stuff to make and find.
My main issue with SimCity Buildit is if I want to start over, I am unable to link it to my Facebook account as it won't let me erase the old city. Especially if I may have made some mistakes and particularly building too fast where I have to build several tiny police and fire stations to cover the whole area. Also how do I access the Global Trade Depot instead of only going to Daniel's City?
I have not done this, but from what I had understood if you link a new city to a Facebook account it is currently linked to a city that old city will be erased. One city per device was my understanding. You access Daniel's City via your friend bar. You access global trade from the building to the right of your Trade building (directly below the airport).
I suppose I could get away with just playing locally. I have noticed that only a few of my Facebook friends have cities and they all appear to be inactive anyway. Thank you for the info about the Global Trade HQ. Could never find it. Particularly also when one of the achievements require me to go to the Global Trade HQ and spend so much.
You can start over again, I’ve done it so many times. First , delete the game from your phone , then start following some steps , until you can log in to Facebook. And at that moment , they’ll ask you which cloud you choose , the old one or the new one I hope I’ve helped you ^_^
The global trade HQ is the most tedious part of the game by far. Mine is always full of hamburgers and pizza. I almost never produce these myself as they are so easy to find in the trade HQ. Why do so many players keep producing and selling these things?
Most high priced items get purchased by Daniel after the 48 hour (I think. Or maybe its 72 hour. I haven't played in years and forgot) window has expired.
Wars are just an activity in the game, much like the Contest of Mayors. You can win stuff from them (notably simcash and both gold and platinum keys) that help in the overall game. But there is a lot of effort and expense (as with all activities in the game) that go with wars to be successful. In simple terms each club member starts with some crappy war disasters and your club is pitted against another club. Through conflict (use of said war disasters, which target players in the opposing club) you attempt to score more points than the opponents. Higher score wins. The key is to both acquire better disasters (via prizes from chests you can win in the wars) or to make current disasters better by leveling them up (also done via prizes you can win from chests). There's more to it, but that's the simple rundown.

A tip I can give to you for future vids is that you can try to simplify the video more. Maybe write down a script on a notebook or something so you aren’t making things up in the top of your head and repeating things 3-4 times. Also try to seem a bit more energetic as it could gain you a lot more views as the viewers would be more likely to check out your other videos.
Omg. I am NEW to this game and I am now seeing this video. I NEED almost all your items in your storage. Lolol. The market keeps selling spice, burgers, light bulbs and fries ... uggghhhh and producing some items take up to 6 hours.
I get the specialty of expansion, but the items get so much harder to find. You almost have to hoard, unless you have sim bucks. I mean 6 dinars when you only tend to find 1 every once in a blue moon? Just my opinion though...but I get the reason behind it.
Everything definitely gets exponentially harder, and almost all of it is tied to the level you are. Which is why one bit of advice I always give is to try not to level past level 18 any more, or faster, than you have to. Good luck in the game. If you have any questions I'll definitely try to answer them.
I recommend always focusing on storage upgrade until you max out (I think its 700 max now, but I'm not maxed lol). The more storage you have the easier everything else is. Temper that advice with whatever you are doing and prioritize what's most important at the time. That's my best advice.
I have a question. Does waste from factories, power plants, sewage tailpipe etc. Affect the beach, because i built my City like that all things that produce waste are near the beach, then i build shops and then buildings, so the waste doesnt affect the buildings with people in it. But it would be useless, that i made that if it effects the beacj
@@thankingyou2825 there are 2 markets. Basically. Club market for players in your "club" and global market. Global market is available to anyone. So top players will keep their rss on club market to keep rss within the club. It's a minor issue but advertising it might make trades.... awkward.
Very helpful! Learned a lot of stuff I didn't know even though I have been playing for a couple months and on level 56. Please don't stop with the advice!!
Geez I'm dying here. Too long winded. Just name the 5 then list them briefly rather than taking about how EA selects what users we see in the market, etc
Informative for those unseasoned to the Buildit world. Good advice for fresh noobies (beginners). Again, this should be common knowledge for the more experienced user.
Level 17 right now, what level do you recommend to stop leveling and just farm simoleons? I already have max utility's and plenty of space to place for more residential buildings
I would say level 18. That way you can join a club if you so desire. In the end how you want to play so that you enjoy the game is the most important, though.
I liked the tips, I recently started playing again and just reached Level 24, but now I try to keep my level down to do better in Mayor Contest. I am making the mistake of collecting multiple items, but on another small town I created I store Storage and Land Items until I have enough for the next Upgrade. By the way: What is your opinion on items for dr vu catastrophies? I have about 10-12 of each in stock (200 storage) in case I need to unleash one for mayor contest. If I get some from my village or visiting people should I keep them or sell all and buy some when needed (they rarely show up on my Global market though)
It is my belief that expanding storage as a primary goal is one of your better options and then maximizing the amount of VU items you have (if you do the contest of mayors) is definitely in your best interest.
I'm at 38. The best tip is the one to be cautious about leveling up, and only someone in the 50+ range could issue that warning. I always horde my vu items because if you get a launch disaster and repair disaster, that's an easy 2,000 points in the contest.
I get frustrated for two main reasons: 1. The global market tends to have too many of one item, either steel, or sugar/spices.
2. The storage-expansion items and the land-expansion items are way too hard to get without paying to get them.
They are easy bro.... Just dont focus on them... Or for trade market you have to unlock new materials....

(Haven't watched the whole video yet) I hate how as soon as you get to a certain level, for example level 14, all of the sudden all your people get extremely mad for not placing a service, and they assume you have all the money in the world.
I get it! I made a video detailing how to manage growth and leveling with demand so as to never have that problem. I forget the exact title, but it's in my vids. Maybe it will help.
I am now at level 21 and I have more than 95% of happiness in my city I actually saved money by not buying anything and selling the items that I produce and I bought all the services and parts to make sure no one needs anything so it just depend on how you think and how you manage your money or creating your own strategy
So true! I've got wise to that now. I check what the next level will open up (tap on the level number in top left corner). If it's something blue, like police or health centres, I will not upgrade buildings until I have a shed load of money.
The worst thing by far in the game is the market being packed with sugar oh my god just sugar even metal is rare seeing people just spam sugar for 0 reason
Just a little info for newbies:
Don't just sell anything to the sims that request items.
Check to see how much you would be able to sell it for in the market.
This will help you avoid loosing money on your hard earned resources, and it can give you more money than what you would get in the market.
For example:
I got an offer to sell 2 metal for 30. In the market I would have only gotten 20 for 2, so I made an extra 10.
On the flip side they wanted 6 nails for 260, but selling 6 in market would give me 480.
So CHECK your sim offers before you agree.
So true. Good advice.
Yep! And if you buy police dept. you won’t get it fix this crap 💩

@@jolerancher yup
I agree with the fact that leveling up is a disadvantage. When I started playing this game, the beach, mountain, and even different types of homes (Tokyo, Omega, etc.) was nonexistent. There was no contest of Mayors and certainly not Wars. You could actually refresh Global Trade as often as you wanted (no 30 sec. wait), so leveling up was considered a positive as you could still find the items you needed. The point of the game or at least how you achieve a larger/ better city has changed completely. This is why the level system no longer makes sense. I wish EA would have figured out the direction of the game or at least planned ahead better so that the additions/changes to the game wouldn't directly interfere with it's original setup. However, I do understand EAs decisions. Before the game was something you checked a few times a day, maybe. Now it's almost necessary to check multiple times, so I'm sure as a result the more time people spend on the app the more money EA makes. Financially, it makes perfect sense. As far as game play, not really.
Yeah I decided to stick to lvl 24 bc its useless to go higher than that object just get way to hard to craft
TL DR -
1) Advertising makes not just the one item, but your whole depot available to global. So beware!
2) War deliveries - Skip the time-consuming deliveries, and ones which are expensive.
3) Energy efficiency - Everytime your energy bar fills up completely, you are losing potential points. If you're under a shield, there's not much you can do, but if you're not, you should attack before your energy bar fills up.
4) Focus on just one rare item set - (for example, focus only on beach at one time. If you keep collecting multiple things like land and beach at the same time, it clogs your storage.)
5) Leveling up is a bad idea because while you unlock new items, you are now required to produce them as well. Also, in the contest of mayors, high level people means more experienced people who may be more willing to spend simcash on their assignments.
I hope it's alright that I have added this, and masjwar isn't offended.
I want to know what makes you think Disco Twister as one of the best attacks. Movie Monster I understand, but what, in your opinion, makes Disco Twister so good ? Let me know your thoughts.
I have conferred with the Masjwar, and they are not offended. :)
I do feel your summation, while covering the basic points of the video, can leave players who don't understand (for whatever reason) what is stated still in a state of confusion no matter how much they reread this.
Point-for-point, energy for score, magnetism is the absolute best disaster in the game. However, due to the excessive amount of items required, a majority of players will not be using it as their primary disaster.
"Average" disasters are one for one energy to damage and items required to damage.
As you progress through the disasters, disco twister has some of the more easily accessible items needed to launch (in my experience), as well as a better than average ratio of items needed for damage gained.
I hope that makes sense without being too long of an explanation.
masjwar totally agreed! Magnetism is the best, considering energy to points ratio, but it needs too many items. BTW, Disco Twister is my favorite too! Most wars I just keep using Disco Twister, sadly I don't have Movie Monster yet.
This app is perfect for quarantine 😂 I've been playing this for a while now

Speed video 1.5x you’ll thank me!
Thankyou 😭

Thank you.
Levelling up is a big No! I realized that when I was about level 22 and rushed to unlock fast food restaurant thinking that the black biscuits would help me make coins, but i later realized that in all products, the profit is not more than 400 coins. In addition to that, as u level up, rarely required products flood the global market and you won't be able to get most of the good products that are necessary. I had to create a new account, build a new city from scratch to access the old good market, then trade with my old city...it is helping 100% and i stopped levelling up.
Point of correction:
It is not only your club members that can access you shop if you don't advertise your items, your facebook friends who play the game can also access your shop.
Thanks for the good work.
Thanks for the support and agreement. I did mention that FB friends can access the depot as well (approximately at 5:03) but it was brief and in passing.
masjwar Tbh...i wouldn't mind browsing through your depo whenever i need items, how about adding you on fb? Your shop is huge and usefull buddy. 😜
Thanks but my depot is reserved for club members only. Sorry.

As I said in my video If you dislike something but you don't say why it is kind of pointless.
If you explain why you don't agree or don't like something other people can understand.
Thanks.
This is so important. Levelling up is a nightmare. It makes everything harder. When you needed a few nails to build, now they ask for corn or cream. Also the contest of mayors is now harder.
I have a few questions.
1. Is the Vu tower important/beneficial? I feel like it’s a waste of 40k at my level (28)
2. How do you avoid levelling? Would it be wiser to just stick to making and selling products and buying up more land space?
I agree. With you agreeing with me. So I agree with both of us :)
Horribly slow video
Phoenix Sky fr
This dude is still replying on his old videos that’s determination lol. Good job
I will always try to reply. My goal was to help players. Even if I don't play any more, that is still the reason I made the videos.
masjwar that’s amazing to hear from a RUclipsr that can actually converse with their audience, that’s what RUclips is for
We're not mayors, we're real estate developers. I miss pre-Origin Sim City.
I agree with the levelling up. Just went 14 to 15 and a load of problems arose that I couldn't afford to sort out. Maxing things before levelling makes it easier in the long run.
Been playing for a while now and the best thing to do is:
Always have metal, wood and rubber in production.
Don't spend your coins on recommendations the game gives you unless it's very necessary.
Try as much as possible to join a club, an active club and compete in the contest of mayors.
And also the design contest too engage in that.
Try your best to engage in wars when your club is at war, you'd get sim bucks from this too.
You talk about levelling being the issue to not finding items in GM, I disagree and actually think that once we reach a certain level the algorithm changes from showing us what we want and need to get us hooked on the game to actively inhibiting us getting what we want and need to Drive up monetised purchases primarily but also Keep us lower, playing longer to encourage monetised purchasing or if we use the watch an advertisement feature the more we play the more we watch still equaling revenue for the company. The thing to remember is games are no longer innocent, when something is annoying and doesn’t make sense it’s normally linked in to somehow driving up revenue
I believe it's both.
If this Vid too long..
Just use 2x Speed
Honestly dont even play this game that much, but this guy put in effort and was thorough to answer any questions that could come to mind about this game. Why you guys complaining how long it is?
I like all the detail, but I think no one would want to sit here for 22 minutes on topics that can be summed up in less than 3-4 minutes. If you were to keep up this long time, try to put more entertainment into it to make it seem more appealing and so less people click off. I'm not trying to be mean, I'm just suggesting. Thank you for understanding.
I just sat here and listened for 22 minutes without realizing... so I guess it works sometimes.
I had to fast forward to find the “problems” mention and gave up at 9:20...
Fortunately you didnt spend the full 22 minutes. Silver linings.

Great job, you helped me a lot. The truth is I'm new to this and I don't want to make catastrophic failures XD
Glad I could help
Stop feeding your buildings as much as possible around level 20 and keep the leveling up as slow as possible.
The yellow box on the top left keeps giving you sim bucks every 24 hours for a single commercial
The items you can make are very necessary to sell and make lots of coin

@@tawhirilee4080 same
Me too I have not played it in years
I think another thing some people seem to forget (or maybe not realize) is to open the daily bonus chest that shows up with little red dot next to the SimCash. (Especially since they do a new one each 24 hours , but they don't compile for you to open if you skip out on them for a few days). Thanks for the video, can't wait to watch more from Ottawa🍁🍁Canada
Glad you liked it. Making one on production and profit soon. :)
I'm new and haven't watched all your vids yet, but I always love seeing how people have done their city layout and would love check yours out! And of course, always interested in Profit/Production! :)
You've got a damn large storage. And the keys.....fuck
Aditya Jha my thoughts exactly! He pays for some monthly allotment of SimCash and I don't know what else is included (saw it on another reply on a different comment). So that explains it, methinks! My jaw about dropped when I saw his storage! Here I was proud of myself for being able to store 75 items, and selling the items that would expand City Storage because for me, 75 is enough! Lmao!!
The third mistake is no longer important because energy regenerates at 5 min per energy. And unless you’re scoring over 60,000 points in a war that would not be important. I would assume the developers changed it to 5 mins when they added jp’s and other power ups because that made more sense for maximum jp efficiency.
I love what you said about levelling up. I’m level 83, and I can’t seem to get passed city league anymore. It sucks! I did realize this problem when I started noticing all these low level players getting the big prizes (that I was trying to win) in their city’s. I hope SimCity starts rewarding us better for levelling up. Seems unfair at the moment.
My storage is currently 545, so not sure how high it goes. I know it only goes up by 5 each time now, which takes a lot longer to build up.
Storage was raised to 600 right after Club Wars started. I wish a separate storage for War items, like OMEGA items, was available.
Why is everyone complaining about that he is explaining so long I find it useful and you can see before you click in on video how long it is.
I agree mostly with your advice about setting a priority on what specialty items you keep in storage, but I do like to keep a few of each type in storage because they are often needed in the regional export HQs.
Useful, but a little less words would be appreciated. This takes too much time!
I am the talkative type. My apologies but sadly that's probably something you'll have to work with.
masjwar no problem, i Just wont subscribe.....if i iwant to listen to excess Words i Just turn on my wife.

Mistake number 1 : installing the game
Real sigma (o
im playing this game back in 2015 and now return with so many question in this game..
the leveling up is so real, especially for beginners. the services suck as they are really expensive and since ur a beginner, u have limited coins. if i can go back in time, i would always check the things I'll get before leveling up to be more prepared.
I remember when I was 11 years old and I had opened the airport in about two weeks of playing, but i didn’t understand the game so I had no money because I would just spend spend spend and I ended up deleting this game. Now I’m 17 and wish I hadn’t deleted the game because I haven’t even opened the ship depot😔.
Dude same here am still regretting I was in level 50!!!
Cool and informative video,if your playback speed is 1.5x
Can someone tell me my global trade is only sugar and spices and no other things like lemonade
You’ll have to wait and check it always. Because for sometime it will stay like that.
Simcity also has an algorithm that it will not display the things that you need. So that’s the reason why sometimes some things don’t display
@@diartselmani8137 oh thank you
Even though it shows sugar and spice tap one,see what they have for sale.
Then go to the trade HQ it will have different items.

Do not accept Sim Offers asking for items used to expand the city’s border or increase city storage capacity. Do not accept Sim Offers asking for Omega items you currently need to expand Omega storage or Neo Simoleon wallet capacity.
Therefore, do not accept Sim Offers that will hinder expansion.
If you want to pay for SimCash, wait for a sale.

You're absolutely right when you say that levelling is usually a bad thing. Keeping this in mind, is there a certain level where you would advise a player to park themselves at and start trading for coins before moving forward?
I think everyone should play in the way that most suits them. For me, based on in game goals I have and wanting to be in a club, I think in hindsight that once I hit level 18 I would have tried much harder to reduce the speed at which I leveled up.
Sadly I think its impossible to prevent leveling while playing the game as its made, though.
Oh lol thought this vid was like 3 years ago but your still making vids ! Keep it up and lets make simcity trending again!
Timewatchh same cuz the camera and quality
True
You're killin me with your pace at explaining things. I'm not gonna make it. I'm out!
I hope you find a channel you like. Good luck in the game.
I would actually put road planning as the first newbie mistake, but as we can see, you didn't plan a thing. For optimal coverage of Services (specifically Fire or Maxis Manor 22x22), a grid of four rows running 12 residences long is best. I'm only level 25 right now a couple months in, so that might kinda change when I expand into another grid towards the mountains, but eyeballing it looks like it will fit another in nicely.
I totally agree with the holding back on leveling up for as long as possible, and how much harm unlocking new items and features does. I rushed up to level 15 a bit too quick and found I didn't have enough Simoleons to get all the basic services running so that hurt pretty bad for a while with scary red faces and low taxes. I might keep going to 30 just to get started on Omega stuff, but maaaan the storage limit is a real bitch. I would say, it's probably best to have five slots for each material and product able to be made. This will leave enough room to collect the expansion, Vu, and war items with relative ease as well, I think.
Thank you so much for the comments. For me, I wanted my city to develop in front of me as opposed to having a pre developed City, if that makes any sense. Thus my lack of Interest in a logical pre-planned road system. But I do agree with what you are saying.
I just found your voice relaxing .. 😊
Oh thank you!
... 😋🥺
I'm new to the game (started 2 days ago). So this came really helpful. The trading part was most useful i think! And how to earn sim cash.
I also don't like leveling up because when I did it initially, I was left without enough simuleons to do things like provide more electricity, so that really stressed me out! So leveling slow is good for ur mental health too! :)
Then leveling slow and trading a lot allowed me to save and buy dept of health and a school. All my factories are upgraded at lvl 11. Its a joy to play at such pace.
I'm glad it's working out for you. :)
Shit I started a week ago and I'm on level 12th and struggling with money😐😐
This used to be a good game, but too much hackers plus the storage item is hard to get unless you play 2 accounts and keep another one in lower level.
well you could sell them
I agree
To be honest i was here for asking how to not burn every building but here i am learning about war
Lol hope the sidetracked info was helpful :)
I wish club chat allowed more sharing like links to these
I'm sorry if you felt that i was being unfair, but the title of your video suggests that you are going to tell us something we are all doing wrong! If it was aimed at beginners in the game, then you should have called it, 'a beginner's guide'. I then went on to add a couple of useful hints, to further help your viewers, but instead of thanking me, you implied that I'm not a nice person, and that I have no respect for new players. I am very helpful to new players, as are everyone else in my club, we assist them with upgrade items, war items etc, to help them progress in the game. We give hints and tips when needed, and have helped build up many new players cities. My comments about the war were based on my observations and experience, what i said, regarding some of the comments made to your video, were not aimed at new players, they were aimed at those who have obviously not taken any notice of the games tutorials, as when you progress through the game, everything is explained to them, but i apologise if I offended anyone. May i just say that if you are going to post videos then people are going to critique them, So take the criticism rather than getting defensive, and attacking people.

Yo dude you have to get to the point faster man.. This video could've been done in about 5 minutes. Ain't nobody got time for this

Glad it was helpful
5 minutes into the video and almost falling into sleep, you take 10 minutes to explain the most simple things
Then why watch it you can see the time
What do you think about holding off on getting the airport and the vu tower opened? When might be a good time to open these? By a certain level? By a certain amount of storage space?
My advice is not to spend your coins on Vu tower. You spend 40k just to destroy your city with a disaster, and then rebuild it for a couple of golden keys. It’s useless in my opinion.
But sometimes, you'll have assignments that requires you to destroy your city, rebuild it, and it gives you 2k to 3k points in my experience for the contest of mayors. I'd say it helps a lot when you want to win grand prize.
Good job, I think that the most serious mistake I made at the first 15 levels is fhat i built all the factories in the beach
can't you just move them elsewhere, though?
Krystal Morrison is right, just press and hold the factory and relocate elsewhere.
Good tips, thanks!
I don't like skyscrapers, city becomes a jungle of buildings. I like lower size buildings, farmhouses, possibility to zoom in a little more and also the weather changes in the city just like real life.
I suggest using your sim bucks in buying expansion for your production buildings
for example the one making the hammer you could save a lot of time not logging every time one of the hammers are finish so yeah
also make nails every time you make metal
dont sell unprocessed goods like wood metal plastic etc
make your seed into vegetables
then ofcourse after you made them sell them
btw do not level up it would only bring more expenses than you can handle
i suggest save up money first and plan ahead
I am only level 15 and I am planning on having all of transportation buildings first before leveling up
edit: wrong send
Epic London buildings are small and look great!
Did you really just spend over 5 minutes explaining how the depo works. Anyone over level 2 knows how it works jesus
Perhaps my exposure to players is significantly higher than yours. My experience has taught me that you are absolutely incorrect. Your warm wishes and constructive comments are greatly appreciated though.
this video could be like 30 sec long dude
This is true, but then just as with your comment, there would be a lot left unexplained. And then I would have lots of questions like why or what do you mean or how and I would have to either make another video or I would have to respond over and over to answer the questions.
My preference is to make everything clear the first time. And then I only have to deal with people complaining about my video being too long or too thorough.
Thank you for the comment though.
Storage maximum is 600. I haven’t reached the omega storage max yet, so I don’t know that.
Thanks for the info.
masjwar you’re welcome, thanks for posting a helpful video for those new to the game, I’ll def recommend it to the folks in my club.
Good to know, I was wondering this...
Thank you for the info... there is a bit of nonsense out there that I struggle to follow along with... Been playing for 2 weeks, sitting at about 94,000 population, and all is happy, 100%... But now that everything is balanced out "FINALLY!!!" ... I am now afraid to add one more plot of residential, lol, fearing it will upset everything, this is crazy... and
I do have a question, every tax cycle (1 to 3 hours? I think) the second the coin hovers above the building, and I click it ,I only get as of the 94,000 population and change, 135 simolians, per cycle.. Shouldn't that be more, sure, if I don't collect it for half a day or so, it is a much bigger pile of money... thank you for the info... I hit the sub button, will watch your.content later tonight after work today...
In regards to the "messing everything up" cycle... I totally get it. I made a video to help combat that exact issue (check out "Balancing Growth With Service Demand").
In regards to the tax revenue. I'm used to games allowing you to pick your tax revenue percentage (with 20% being a common upper level limit and starting number). Here you have no say, nor does it appear based on that criteria in any way. I don't know what you are basing your "taxes aren't enough" question on, but when I started playing I felt that way and this was why. That's why I'm adding this. The tax revenue seems unpleasantly low, but it is what it is. Wait till you start regional cities and find the population generates nothing. Lol.
Just earn cash by selling item from making.. like.. hammers ,nails..
Tips: complete pop up tasks, and you'll get pop up gifts (rare items)
Thank you, i learned things i didn’t know.
Glad I could help
I liked it...looking for more understanding of how Plumbob points are accumulated in the war games...already got the club challenge under control.
I wish I had never added the train and am now wondering if I can remove it. I get asked for bolts, hats etc. It takes forever to earn enough to purchase those items and everytime you purchase the price increases. We should just be able to manufacture the needed items. Whoever thought this up should be FIRED!!
It sounds like the holiday themed factories then. Just another thing that makes the game more complicated while actually adding nothing. But it does increase the chance people willing to put up with it will spend money, and thats what its all about. The next cash grab. 🤬🤬🤬
I like the train but I feel you with added items that you just don't need to upgrade and do deliveries, etc. A tutorial for the mass transit train system would be great too.
I only put the train in as I was asked for bolts several times and I got tired cancelling out and waiting for 30 mins each time. I'd have never put in the train otherwise. Even now I just run it whenever I can just so I can buy bolts when needed.

Thanks for the reply. I'm sorry the information overwhelmed you.
My main issue with SimCity Buildit is if I want to start over, I am unable to link it to my Facebook account as it won't let me erase the old city. Especially if I may have made some mistakes and particularly building too fast where I have to build several tiny police and fire stations to cover the whole area.
Also how do I access the Global Trade Depot instead of only going to Daniel's City?
I have not done this, but from what I had understood if you link a new city to a Facebook account it is currently linked to a city that old city will be erased.
One city per device was my understanding.
You access Daniel's City via your friend bar. You access global trade from the building to the right of your Trade building (directly below the airport).
I suppose I could get away with just playing locally. I have noticed that only a few of my Facebook friends have cities and they all appear to be inactive anyway. Thank you for the info about the Global Trade HQ. Could never find it. Particularly also when one of the achievements require me to go to the Global Trade HQ and spend so much.
You can start over again, I’ve done it so many times.
First , delete the game from your phone , then start following some steps , until you can log in to Facebook. And at that moment , they’ll ask you which cloud you choose , the old one or the new one
I hope I’ve helped you ^_^
Terry Regan just use your old city as a feeder for your new one...try Selling yourself expansion parts or items...
It's more important to use jackpots efficiently than to constantly attack plus its better if you don't play 8 hours a day
What if you attack constantly and use jackpots efficiently, while playing 8 hours a day?
The global trade HQ is the most tedious part of the game by far. Mine is always full of hamburgers and pizza. I almost never produce these myself as they are so easy to find in the trade HQ. Why do so many players keep producing and selling these things?
Most people inaccurately presume that because the sell price is so high, they are the best product in the game to make simoleons with.
Yes, they think they can sell them at a high price then they sit unsold forever almost. Supply and demand.
Most high priced items get purchased by Daniel after the 48 hour (I think. Or maybe its 72 hour. I haven't played in years and forgot) window has expired.
Really helpful! I hope they pay you for this video. You helped me understand the game so much better . I hope they are compensating you!
No I just do it to be helpful. Glad it had some benefit for you. :)
I’m lvl 33. Recently got the game back and have no clue what wars are for, can someone explain what wars do?
Wars are just an activity in the game, much like the Contest of Mayors. You can win stuff from them (notably simcash and both gold and platinum keys) that help in the overall game.
But there is a lot of effort and expense (as with all activities in the game) that go with wars to be successful.
In simple terms each club member starts with some crappy war disasters and your club is pitted against another club. Through conflict (use of said war disasters, which target players in the opposing club) you attempt to score more points than the opponents. Higher score wins.
The key is to both acquire better disasters (via prizes from chests you can win in the wars) or to make current disasters better by leveling them up (also done via prizes you can win from chests).
There's more to it, but that's the simple rundown.
If U level up an don't have simoleons for new services life becomes crappy
Please join" ACTIVE WAR AND TRADE!" For Easy rewards and consistent platinum keys, golden keys, and simoleans. Thank you for even reading , will treat you as important individuals unlike other clubs 😁
G G how
I have a person in my club having 99999999999 gold coins, 9999999999 sim cash. , __ gold coins.. , __ platinum keys.. 🤦🏼♂️ hackers..
Global trade is the most important building in my life
A tip I can give to you for future vids is that you can try to simplify the video more. Maybe write down a script on a notebook or something so you aren’t making things up in the top of your head and repeating things 3-4 times. Also try to seem a bit more energetic as it could gain you a lot more views as the viewers would be more likely to check out your other videos.
Thanks
What do you play this on?
I play on an Android Galaxy S8, if that's what you are asking.
@@masjwar Any particular reason
It's the phone I have
@@masjwar Does it catch fire often?
Omg. I am NEW to this game and I am now seeing this video. I NEED almost all your items in your storage. Lolol. The market keeps selling spice, burgers, light bulbs and fries ... uggghhhh and producing some items take up to 6 hours.
Welcome aboard!
I get the specialty of expansion, but the items get so much harder to find. You almost have to hoard, unless you have sim bucks. I mean 6 dinars when you only tend to find 1 every once in a blue moon? Just my opinion though...but I get the reason behind it.
Everything definitely gets exponentially harder, and almost all of it is tied to the level you are.
Which is why one bit of advice I always give is to try not to level past level 18 any more, or faster, than you have to.
Good luck in the game. If you have any questions I'll definitely try to answer them.
@@masjwar
Any advice on storage strategy? Mainly a good number to keep for long timer items?
I recommend always focusing on storage upgrade until you max out (I think its 700 max now, but I'm not maxed lol). The more storage you have the easier everything else is.
Temper that advice with whatever you are doing and prioritize what's most important at the time. That's my best advice.
I have a question. Does waste from factories, power plants, sewage tailpipe etc. Affect the beach, because i built my City like that all things that produce waste are near the beach, then i build shops and then buildings, so the waste doesnt affect the buildings with people in it. But it would be useless, that i made that if it effects the beacj
That is a really good question.
Fortunately the answer is no. Beach goers do not appear to care if they swim in oily water with dead fish. 🤣🤣🤣
@@masjwar well, that's great. Thank you for your fast answer
Why would you put something up for sale if you didn’t want to put it on sale???????
So other people in your club can get it.
@@jsquared1013 are you dumb?
@@thankingyou2825 hahaha
@@thankingyou2825 there are 2 markets. Basically.
Club market for players in your "club" and global market.
Global market is available to anyone. So top players will keep their rss on club market to keep rss within the club.
It's a minor issue but advertising it might make trades.... awkward.
dumass haha
It would be nice if they allowed you to change the default for advertising to unchecked.
Dude u spent 7 minutes talking about ONE thing ain't nobody got time for this
Which probably explains why you are on RUclips looking up videos of how to play, but you still don't know how.
Oof
Very helpful! Learned a lot of stuff I didn't know even though I have been playing for a couple months and on level 56. Please don't stop with the advice!!
Thanks. Any topic suggestions?
This guy goes on and on and on and on WOW just get to the point
Oh good, you liked it
XD
Geez I'm dying here. Too long winded. Just name the 5 then list them briefly rather than taking about how EA selects what users we see in the market, etc
Informative for those unseasoned to the Buildit world. Good advice for fresh noobies (beginners). Again, this should be common knowledge for the more experienced user.
I've found that nothing is common knowledge until you've learned it, and the only way to learn it is to have someone (or something) present it to you.
masjwar u sir are correct... And thanks for sharing... #WISDOM
Is it possible to change my small factory to higher factory by selling it?
Yes
LOL!
Level 17 right now, what level do you recommend to stop leveling and just farm simoleons? I already have max utility's and plenty of space to place for more residential buildings
I would say level 18. That way you can join a club if you so desire.
In the end how you want to play so that you enjoy the game is the most important, though.
Make stuff in the stores and sell everything
Hello. I just started this game today. Do you have a video that tells me how to remove trees? Thx.
it should remove trees automatically if u put a house on it
@@juicytreebranch K. Thx.
Rice good advice going to add it to my list and share with my club members thanks Boomtown all lower case
I liked the tips, I recently started playing again and just reached Level 24, but now I try to keep my level down to do better in Mayor Contest. I am making the mistake of collecting multiple items, but on another small town I created I store Storage and Land Items until I have enough for the next Upgrade. By the way: What is your opinion on items for dr vu catastrophies? I have about 10-12 of each in stock (200 storage) in case I need to unleash one for mayor contest. If I get some from my village or visiting people should I keep them or sell all and buy some when needed (they rarely show up on my Global market though)
It is my belief that expanding storage as a primary goal is one of your better options and then maximizing the amount of VU items you have (if you do the contest of mayors) is definitely in your best interest.
I'm at 38. The best tip is the one to be cautious about leveling up, and only someone in the 50+ range could issue that warning. I always horde my vu items because if you get a launch disaster and repair disaster, that's an easy 2,000 points in the contest.
it was great! good advice.. couldve been done in 11 minutes. thanks
