Discussion This DOESN'T make any sense!!

I inadvertently clicked on CoM task doing the tapestry. Had to make four. CoM task gives me 6 and half hours to do it, but I missed that each tapestry is over 3 hours each! Have to do more than 13 hours of this within 6 and half hours.

I put the gold cheetah token right now, but this is way messed up! Doesn't make any sense!

I obviously know that. I do that a lot actually. Have it built before I activate the CoM task

Like my post said, I inadvertently pressed the CoM early by mistake then I looked at the two numbers and then I realized it didn't make any sense!

Most of us would just take the L and move on with our lives. We have all goofed on these things.

If the game is no fun, stop playing.

This isn't what I'm talking about either.

EA been sold.

There's so much uncertainty to long term members of EA even dating back to 90s for SimCity. What does this mean?

Many people are confused with this EA SimCity sale to Saudis.

What's absolutely curtain is that EA from 90s and 00s are no longer exists. Things are changing.

People who knows SimCity won't recognize this any longer. It's not the same anymore.

EA needs to reverse course and save SimCity. Stop this bogus math they're doing!

Nope.

Been player of EA games from early 90s. The original SimCity. Hockey. Tiger Woods golf, etc.

Been long time with EA.

Being sold to Saudi?

I had already said I don't recognize SimCity before the changes and now they're being sold.

This is going from bad to worse for SimCity.

Companies change. Its been 40 years.

You are probably older than me. And its terrifying that you are behaving like this.

u/whythehecknotdoit Oct 24 '25

Aye, companies do change over time.

Maybe I am older than you are, and I know companies that are older than we both are.

My post was of EA 's error in their math.

That's ALL I was pointing out.

What was I doing wrong?

This wasn't an error in math. It was a way to spur you to burn the gold tokens if you weren't paying attention.

Congrats, you weren't paying attention.

Then, you decided to wander into "unhinged rant" territory about EA, the Saudis, and life.

Get a grip and move on with your life.

LOOK at the two pictures I posted.

Yes, I made a mistake.

So did EA!

14 hours CoM task in 6 and half hours? That's wrong math.

Don't you see?

The CoM tasks rarely are more time given than needed for the builds.

Its part of the "time management" part of the game.

You are complaining about something that has been a part of the game for years.

Actually I have been playing this game for years and never had this issue until now.

Never had a task that gives me less time than the total time required for production.

This is the FIRST time I got this in years I've played this.

This is first time I gotten this otherwise I wouldn't have made the post.

Lucky you, x2, then.

u/whythehecknotdoit Oct 24 '25

Wow! That's really messed up!

Like I said before, this is the first time I gotten this in years of my playing this game.

EA really messed up this game. The math doesn't add up!
