I'm not sure. I've gotten one right when I logged on before so maybe you don't need to stay logged on.

Whoever came up with the idea for this needs praise. Holy fuck, is this a good idea or what. I haven't even signed up yet but this is basically a next gen MMO.

can you give examples of what you've gotten? i just want to see whats out there since evidently the chance card gods are not smiling at me

Well, there's construct hazards, building stadiums and parks so that your rent can't go down unless you demolish, demolish and cash bonuses.
I find that building a lot of small stuff gets you more chances of getting a chance card.

I just placed a hazard building on this street next to mine, would that owner know who placed it there? like would he know my id or what streets i own.

My first chance card was me losing 19k.

So does a chance card pop up anytime if you just have the window open?

I think so, it would make more sense that way.

I was under the impression that chance cards can appear after an event (placing a building or buying a street or logging in?)

Looks cool, but it won't let me register for some reason. :/ I fill in my info, click register, and nothing happens.

i imagine you just have to wait it's laggy as fuck

keep posting if you find any more info guys.. here's another little tidbit from me
the minimum offer as we know is its current value did you know there's a maximum offer? it's 1.5 times the current value this can be a problem.. i wanted to dump 4 million to get a key street but couldn't.. had to settle for a ~3million offer which im sure will be rejected fuck that
edit: the more i think about this, the more i realize how TERRIBLE it is i can only assume that you can offer unlimited streets as part of your offer but it's painfully obvious that streets aren't as fungible as money WHY IS THIS ARBITRARY LIMIT HERE?

The big question. restart the game? Yes.
That's the answer to everyone's question about whether or not we are going to restart the game. Once we are comfortable with how the game is performing we will reset the game.
We are expecting that it will be in the middle of next week. We will give everyone at least 24 hours notice before we make the switch. Stay tuned for more details.
Damn!!!,

Looks like we'll just have to wait until the reset happens.
Best strategy I think is to fill up the streets with 75,000 dollar houses, along with a few bonus buildings. Gets you more chance cards this way too, and not lose any rent value.

50k's give more bang for your buck though..we need to create a chart as to how rent value changes as you level up, so we can determine optimal buildings ^_^
would also need to take into account how much space they take up on the street (which by the way is not consistent. how do i know this? i build four 300k buildings in a row, using the closest pylons available each time, then decided to fill in the gaps with 50k houses. Result? Some of the 300k had gaps between them for a 50k house, others did not. wtf?)
|
Although 50k houses are better space wise, you do not want other people plopping down hazards on your street, so that's why the 75k houses are better, as it takes up more space. Both give back a 1:1 ratio of price to rent. The gaps are weird, but what can you do. Maybe when they reset, I'll start/own a small town instead of competing against many in a big metropolitan area.

ive just started playing this game after a couple of people from my class started playing. Actually a pretty funny game, its gonna be interresting to see how it works out without this massive lag. (if thats ever going to be fixed)
