Unable to purchase Small Fire Station due to high pricing

I was unable to build a small fire station due to the high pricing. I feel like that players that have already built an adequate amount of fire stations should not be charged this much seems that the small fire station was just implemented. Even though I can make quite a bit of credits from a lot of calls, I still feel as though the small fire station should start for all players at its lowest price then gradually go up.

(UPDATE EDIT:) I must have read it wrong and it was only meant for half the price of what you're Station cost now. Could a moderator explain to me about that please? I think I may have misunderstood. I thought that it would start at the bottom and work up unless it was just for half the price of what our stations are now. Not trying to cause any trouble at all I would just like this clarified please.

They're half the price of the fire stations at your current price. If you're just starting out, they're 50k. If your stations now cost 1m, then your small stations will be 500k and so on.

So with these new stations it was a lateral transfer of the ones the German game got, just with English translations. Whilst they are expensive I don’t think there is a lot that can be done unfortunately. Sebastian is notoriously set in his ways with pricing.

Honestly when I was talking to Seb this morning about these stations I could see three options for them being implemented.

They aren’t implemented

They have a maximum of 3 slots but cost the same price as they do now.

Or they are implanted the way they were costing the same but have up to 6 slots.

I picked option three as I felt it gave players the best value for money. I know some players will disagree with this but out of the options that were available I felt it was the right one and I stand by that.

I do agree with all of the pricing complaints I just don’t think there are many options.

How about the ability to downgrade a current station and get a refund on the money spent?

I have far too many "Large" stations now that never required the size that a full station offers.

This was brought up earlier. I asked him and his response was "Its not possible".

I did just find that reply, thanks for that.

As the one poster said, too bad for those of us who have played for a long time and spent money on the game as well.
