Slowly rebuilt, and had worked up a really nice set of replacement rooms, collecting close to a billion M$ and 300 gold per day.
I had the feeling it was too good to last. And I was right.
This morning, I collected from all my rooms. Gung Hai Fat Choy! It's Chinese New Year.
Later, though, I got an error 900 when I tried to go back in.
When I did get back into the game, I realised that all my hotels were empty - AGAIN!
Now that there are no more good gold-producing rooms, this really makes it unappealing to try to continue playing, other than maybe a couple of times a week.
Oh, well.
Here's what I had built up to until last night: note that I'd even started building the new Pirate's Treasure room ...
This is what it looked like as I was about to purchase it ...
I did purchase it, and had started building it ...
I was just waiting to finish building it ...
... and so on ...
I still have several billion M$ and a fair amount of gold, but it's really not feeling like this game is interesting anymore ... who's got the time to waste??
EA had a great idea for a game, but their execution certainly leaves a lot to be desired. This bug has been around at least since October, and rather than fixing it, it seems to me that it's actually got progressively worse. Especially as players hit the higher levels of the game, the chances of losing all the rooms seem to increase.
I will continue playing, I suspect, but far less than I used to even recently!
I hope none of you lose your game ... it can be rather frustrating!
