How can the leaderboard show someone with 600mil, even on the second DAY the high score was over 200 MILLION.

Game = not worth playing

I got $34m this morning.

EDIT: It seems someone else has bought the road I wanted...damn me having to get up this morning and not being able to stay up to collect rent and buy new road!

How can you have that much rent coming in already? I only had a $12mil, you must have been damn lucky with chance cards.

To be honest that's something I haven't had, I've had barely any money given to me but Yesterday I had a $2mil fine after my $6mil rent

Even after today I reckon I'll only be bringing in $20mil rent tomorrow.

Only got 12mill this mourning. But tomorrow will be way over 50mill I recon. But the games on a go slow so building houses is painfull.

got attacke by kostas this morning, hes got a 12mil place in milton park with no,protection , but needs demolishing before hazards

Has anyone seen the leaderboard this morning?

Either the team behind the game are having a laugh and have renamed all of the accounts (possibly frozen them too?), or someone is really taking the p.

If you cannot log in a player named Best Cheater is currently winning

Yeah I saw that. A leader board full of cheaters

Well, seems they've disabled the cheating accounts then - it's a start.

Glaucus · 21 Sep 2009 at 11:05

I can't find any high value streets.

Are they goign to ever bring half to world to play. So many countries you just can't buy in.

Vigoro · 21 Sep 2009 at 11:08

I struggled to find high value streets last night aswell, in the end i managed to get a high value path that runs next to a river and doesnt show up on the map until you go to buy it

Russinating · 21 Sep 2009 at 11:11

Depends what area you look in. I just bought a $28mil street and there's plenty of $20s around.

Glaucus · 21 Sep 2009 at 11:12

where. I've been browsing all over..

Russinating · 21 Sep 2009 at 11:16

I'm in North Dakota, loads of really long straight roads.

Crazily, on a $28mil road, a 50k house brings in $1,408,000 rent

Gonna take a while for that house to pay for itself then

It's pretty ridiculous - at first I liked the idea of there being no $1m road cap but now I see it's just stupid. For instance, I have enough money to build 400 50k houses on that road, which, if unhazarded and I actually have time to build them all will net me $563m rent tonight. And then what? Once I have the 5 most expensive roads I can find filled to the brim (which theoretically I'll be able to do tomorrow) there's not much to do unless I want to get taxed :/. Game comes to an end very quickly.

And with the amount of cheaters constantly creating new accounts to attack with it kind of makes the whole thing really pointless and frustrating.

Vigoro · 21 Sep 2009 at 11:49

It does seem a bit that way, i would have been in for 14 mil or so tonight, but some idiot demolished one of my buildings, which i am still confused why i bought, as it was a 3 mil building.......... i am now only getting 9mil

Bought a road at near $3m first day, put some houses on it, got in fair bit from that 2nd day, built loads of houses 2nd day, etc.

Isn't this was you berated me for just a few days ago?

molinari · 21 Sep 2009 at 13:07

I keep getting chance cards which say "Get the dynamite out. Demolish any opponent's building or any Hazard buildings placed on your own streets.". So why can't I demolish any opponent's building? I only seem able to demolish hazards on my roads.

nands · 21 Sep 2009 at 14:06

For those trying to fill streets to capacity. Don't forget that green houses are very small and will fit between most other buildings.
