Big Business - game discussion

Question, 10 hard hats (apple pie or chiffon ire) -- I'm not sure what this means. Do I have to make apple and chiffon ire? If so I can't figure out where to make them. Thanks
 
Well - 2 companies were customer service is rotally absent. And, at least Ryan Air is extremely succesfull.

My point is, there is more to competition than customer service, and top class products. If you look around, you will be amazed to see so many examples of this. Take also the food industry. A lot of low quality products are quite successful.

So, forget what the theory books say - there is a real life, that often is somewhat different.

.....

Of course there is a lot more than customer service, I said as much, re-read my message. You made a big deal out of my humorous comment. This forum is not an appropriate place to discuss economics or politics anyway. However, I'd like to make a quick comment on what you said about low quality products being successful.
I am not sure about your definition of low quality product but as long as there is a demand for cheap stuff people ( like Walmart shoppers) who cannot afford anything better will buy it. Or if there is no alternative. Depends on your budget, need and availability. You are missing the point. If two companies offer the same product for the same price, the company that provides better customer service will be more successful. I feel like I am stating the obvious.
Since we were originally talking about GI, people here complained about their inconsistent CS quite a bit and, given the fact that many received refunds from Apple, these complaints probably made a dent in GI coffers. How big a dent I don't know but I am sure it did not go completely unnoticed.

I had all my solar plants Max Level and i had to destroy one and build another and upgrade it to2 Level.

player name: Hellssister city: Sky city Level 50

Oh no! I have ten lvl 6 solar pants too. They already limit the number of energy structures a player can have to force people to buy premium buildings which are expensive to upgrade. Now they expect us to destroy something that took time and money to build. Lame.

How much electricity does the "hydro power plant" generate?

Edit I accidentally started training an electrician. 20 hours and 80,000 coins. God help us.

800.... Not much in my opinion for the amount of work that you need to put to it
 
I got 40 in about 4 hours. Then they completely stopped. Close to finishing out stage 3 of the port.

You are very lucky - you only need 30, so you will rush over stage 4.
Looking forward to hear about stage 5 - good luck!
Will try to make more donut cafes - uppen the odds a bit ;-)

Only 800? A solar plant gives 790. Lame, lame, lame. My lvl 5 twin turbine generates 2064, wink wink, nudge nudge. 55 credits to upgrade to lvl 6.

Was actually letting this one go. But you have now provoced me back.
The first to make a big deal of it was you. I made a few humorous comments/questions - but then you start lecturing. Read it over, and you will see what I mean (I hope).

You were in a typical arrogant way being extremely categorical in you description of capitalism.
Every business owner etc.

So, do not put this one on me. Will not discuss this one any further.
 
Hey, fellas! Why the agro? It's just a game, but as many of us on this forum agree, a tad frustrating in terms of customer service. I've adopted the attitude of sitting back and letting things take their time to construct/ open/ upgrade. We all must have lives outside of BB! Come back to your iThing and play just for the fun of laying out a city and behaving as a beneficial dictator.
Ooooh, was that a bit over the top?
 
What's the next challenge for the ET after the 10 avocados? I am working on the final cheesecake so I am curious. I have 6 milkshakes to go for the port so I am really happy about that. Is it true that you have to destroy the solar plant and start over to get the level 2 upgrade requirement for the bridge construction? Good luck to everyone today. Even with 8 dairy factories I was only 13th on the contest list with 209. I did not see Mockba in the top 3.
 
Hi, sometimes I´m also annyoyed but you are so right: It´s just a game. And again I´ve learned to be patience!!!
:D and in no case: I mustn´t forget to feed my cats!

Send you a fountain.

Hey all, Nice to meet you. I've been playing big business for a few months now. My name is Peter, living in Belgium, playername Julius Caesar II (Hey, call me ambitious lol) and cityname Virtua Roma. Please add me as a friend. level 48. A few months ago I searched the net for a list of the achievements that are needed in the game and I came across this forum. It helped me alot and I kept checking the forum as a visitor. My achievements were at 79.4 percent, working towards 80 percent to get some green credits and build me a second terminal, when the recent update came and I warped back to 74 percent lol. Anyway, I have enjoyed the game (never bought credits with real money) and the tips I found here. While expanding my city I suddenly achieved........ home sweet home !!! As this forum had been a big help I registered just now to share this secret :-). It's simply "build 6 standard houses" . Mystery solved ! you can Allways send me a little dragon as a Thank you :-) don't have any of those. Greetings to you all , Peter.
