Not enough Shotfirer and Demo crew to clear island

[Mouldy]

I'm happy! I've got 33 spaces using all the demo crews and only 9 shotfirer. I need 1 more demo crew to get 3 more.

Hello,

So far, only a limited amount of this buffs are purchasable in the shop. We have never said that you would be able to clear the entire island.
You have to choose what building you want to place on your island, and where. For the same reason, you have to choose which skills your specialists will learn, you cannot have everything.
Choice is necessary if you want to customize your island.

Sure. Choice is great. BUT. It would have been nice to tell the players ahead of time about these choices. Maybe a warning box or something.

Because, I had used up my demos and then suddenly, I saw that I couldn't buy more and couldn't destroy them all. Now I regret the choices I made because I thought they were all destructible.

Unlike making choices to customize your island. You could pay to move your buildings. Paying to make your mistakes. So if BB wants me to pay to restore rocks, and choose something else. That would be great.


But this I blame BB for not properly informing players about the choices on the rocks.

Personally I think this is quite valid complaint. There should be a loud and clear msg in devs diary or a warning sigh when you buying the crews/shots to plan ahead because it is not enough to clear ALL rocks/mountains. I just checked the test forums and couldn't find any info about this.

Just cause devs know about it and planned it this way doesn't mean players know. There is a very consistent record of BB not informing players properly which leads to a lot of grim on forums. It is not our fault we don't know there wasn't enough demo crews to clear all rocks/mountains. I cleared about 3 formations before a guildie told me to plan this because there isn't enough in the shop to clear all.

Get on your game BB and inform people instead of letting us find out the hard way. Those are not collectibles that we can find or miss, those are real money purchases. And there is a huge difference between some remote cleared areas or sec 9. There is a beautiful expansion opening (sec 9) allowing placement of a storehouse and few extra production facilities, similar in sec 8. Other openings are rather remote and mostly used efficiently for placing housing.

Some part of the game might be fun for players to check and "find out". Whenever you place a restriction on something BB (especially purchased by real money) - get in a habit of informing players about it upfront. It wasn't fair to keep us in the dark about it. At all.

These buffs require a significant amount of gems to purchase. You can only get them with gem purchases. You can get gems by buying them with real money. Seems like it would make sense to offer enough buffs to clear the available spaces. Players would be happy, and Ubisoft has the potential to make more money. I guess I have a flawed perception that businesses are naturally driven to be as profitable as possible. Players are posting that they want more buffs available to clear more rocks and mountains. They want to spend gems......you don't want to sell them. Amazing.

They can also get our of business due to... loosing control over the game economy.. or players losing interest because it's gets toooo easy with more space on the island.. I don't know for sure... but I would think it's not as simple as they don't want us to spend gems.

Rocks need to be chosen wisely.

LOL! And you all were surprised? Shame on you.
