Hey all. I’m based in the US but I have noticed there seems to be a lot more players from elsewhere around the world.

I am seeing lots of new forum members from other countries outside of the us and lots of alliances for other countries.

Often we see the but it’s based in America argument from the moderation team and that’s fine but I can also see why players would get annoyed at this because English is more of a common language than German or Dutch so it makes sense to play an English version but tailoring the game to North America may restrict those players etc.

My question for the community is just how many of you are from outside of North America and how many have buildings outside of North America.

It’s great to see the playerbase growing from else where in the world, Australia, New Zealand, UK, Portugal just to name a few so since I have noticed this increase of international players and my interest about where they play from has grown. I have also attached a poll just to see how big of a percentage of the forums members have buildings outside of North America.

I know we Americans sometimes like to think we rule the world but it’s becoming more and more apparent that this game is growing in popularity internationally.

I like it but I think the awards in game would need re working first.

Love the ideas. I agree. Can we get a poll?

I really like the idea for those new players. I always like seeing posts like this with people showing of there game layout. It really gets some good discussions going and helps the community aspect of the forum.

What is your goal in this thread?

I’m really not sure why you seem to have an issue with this. He posted it in the general discussion part of the forums. Some of you moderators really take some things too seriously.

I like it, I could see it maybe for premium members a bit more though. As for a burns unit, I love that.

That is a nice looking truck. I’d like to see these in game

I agree with Obiwan, good idea but could cause problems

I think trailers could be really useful if implemented correctly

Why do people always have to make snarky comments instead of actually giving constructive criticism. Honestly I see a lot of people saying how little information we used to get. Maybe this is the reason, you give information and you get the idiots turn up who think they are superior and to good to give feedback.

Instead of rushing it to get something out there, why not take the extra time to do it right the first time around. Isn’t that causing extra work in the long run to go back and fix it?

let me guess, you would be the same person moaning that they haven’t had an update in ages.

Moderators, you can’t please everyone, I myself appreciate the work you put in because I know (unlike some others) that you are NOT paid to do this and to also NOT paid to have to deal with negative feedback for the game, basically NOT payed to deal with the ungrateful and the *****. I think they don’t realise that without you they wouldn’t get half of the stuff they ask for.

If I was you I would stop bothering to give people information, they don’t appreciate it. Some of us such as myself do but there are those that don’t such as those constant moaners on the FB and on here.

Thank you for this bit of information, even if it does end up being the last.

And to make sure I give constructive criticism, I would personally like to see a few more of the fires as BLS calls.

People are never happy. We are getting ALS and BLS medical systems and people are still moaning and winging about it. The same people who are moaning and winging about it being implemented are the same ones who were moaning and winging that it wasn’t in the game. Honestly these people are never happy. Yes as always it’s on the Facebook and as always it’s the same few people.

I can’t see the ambulances being anymore expensive than the current one so if you have to replace them so what, for 100K you can get 20 ambulances and if you need to replace a lot of ambulances the chances are you can afford it quite easily.

This will open up the game for more possibilities such as medical trained personnel on engines etc.

I think it’s great that we are now getting these brilliant features that we have wanted for a while and I want to say thank you to the mods and developer for listening to our requests.

Definitely is nice to see them listening, people from my alliance seem very happy with it and I have seen a lot of positive things regarding this. Thank you to the mods

No it wouldn't be difficult to change and would make more calls but would also make more credits.
I can see Police Stations and EMS Stations built at Hospitals needing this unless there's a major Fire Department out there.

I see your point in this I really do and agree. Just trying to throw out a cheaper alternative is all. I'm probably gonna do this for my Police Stations based in Florida. I'd rather pay 100K for another station followed by 10K and 50K for three Police Units then 100K for one slot for a unit. Hope you see where I'm going with this.

I get what your saying but for me my police stations cost over 400K so it’s not that much cheaper plus I have noticed some weird things happening when multiple stations are placed down on top of each other such as calls spawning a lot further away etc so maybe the game doesn’t like you placing things down on top of one another

I have been able to transfer multiple people so I’m not sure what this issue is

I agree about having more slots but may I make a much more simple less complicated suggestion? Build another station at the same location. It's not realistic but much more cheaper. The most slots I have so far is 9 or 10. Haven't had to go any further. And these are ARFF stations. But still I'd like to see this too in the near future.

Would it be a difficult change though? It would literally just be changing a number in a line of code, plus if I put lots of buildings down on one spot then a lot of calls will start spawning in just one area.

I'm just saying that we are the 5th safest country and we only have 2-3 patrol cars per station, which maybe is impressive to meAslo, the area where I live has some "bad" areas near and everyone feels safe around here, and cops do great work here
I'm not saying sometimes we don't have a few riot vans on patrol, which we do (saw one today as matter of fact) and a few years ago when your dear Barack Obama visited Portugal we bought a few armored trucks, which arrived right on time (months after the visit) and one of them was around here for a week or so escorted by 2 other Personnel Carriers with full blacked out windows (they looked so great)
Also crime isn't that high, sure, mainly because of the police work? You rob and you get caught or something like that xD
I've seen unmarked police cars speeding here too
My opinion is that "we" have done very good work on what we can afford, we don't have police helicopters (any), we have 2-3 patrol cars per station, SWAT isn't really a thing here since it's very rare, so mainly you see patrol cars, traffic units and some riot vans. But again I understand that around here not everybody has a weapon like in the US, which I find weird but US was "built" in a different way I guess

Anyways, I just want to know for those asking for more space in the stations if you are doing it just for creating the stations in a realistic way or because you need them?

Have a good weekend everybody

I want the extra spaces because I want to play realistically, I can’t see how this feature would harm the game at all, if you only have 3 vehicles at a station then only get 3 vehicles, why should those who want more not be able to get them because some places only have 2-3 vehicles at a station.

I have tried the other versions but don’t really like it so I have stayed here.

THANK you for getting him to change the payouts on those missions

Quote from PortuguesDC

I don't want to be rude or something but, where do you guys live? Do you live in Syria or something? Do all stations around your area have 15 cars each? or more?

What has wanting more vehicles at stations got to do with Syria? If a few stations have more than 15 vehicles at it then we should be allowed to buy that many vehicles. I can’t see how this would hurt the game and it has the potential to generate more coins for Sebastian

Is there any word on this update? I am starting to reach capacity in my buildings and I don’t want to build multiple on one site.

Please dont let this get out of hand, i dont want to have to close it.

To clear up some stuff in your post

I personally cover mainly the UK so i would love for there to be some more UK units added however as myself and other mods have said in the past, Sebastian (The Dev) wants to keep this based on the US. I personally believe this should be done in a way that makes it fair for players from other areas of the globe as this is the only English Speaking version of the game so there are a lot of players from not only other English speaking countries but countries that may have a better understanding of English than German.

In the US (And to a degree in the UK) alot of units have multiple rolls, rather than you having all of the different types of pumpers that you have in Germany for example, so that in its self means that there will be less units in this game. Other organisations such as search and rescue is something i would like to see however the current focus is getting police and ambulance up to a level comparable to fire.

We see many suggestions on here and most of the liked ones do end up being passed on to the Dev, if they get added is the sole responsibility of him, we may insist that players really want to see a certain thing but if he doesn't like it its his game at the end of the day so he makes the final call on that, we do try though to implement as many suggestions as possible in a way that is fair to all players.

Thank you for trying to make the game as fair as possible, I’m not going to lie it does irritate me a little bit when I see the “This game is based in America” argument because I know a large part of the community is from outside of the US.

Quote from me181

You are right, but only to some extent, I personally don't expect this game to be everything, I thought I made that clear with the mention of improvisation.
My apparent 'bashing' obviously hasn't been read properly, I'm trying to look on the bright side, with the updates that the developer has brought in, helis, boats of all sizes and not to mention the million or so little things. I can only thank the developer for doing this. Apparently everything is done in order of priority, but surely, someone needs to tell Sebastion to ignore Facebook comments cause it appears to be doing damage in some cases.

I can't understand why you are then telling everyone to 'go moan moan somewhere else', makes little sense, surely we're entitled to make a few suggestions, which I was I was attempting to do rather trigger rants (evidently failed), and is this not the right place to make those suggestions?

Sorry, I misunderstood, it just really irritates me that there are a few people that seem to be never happy with any update and just go out of their way to discredit the game, dev and mods.
