Thread: I hate City Expansion Capped...!!!!

as far as I know about SWG, this isn't true. however, the cap is placed because the devs wanted it in. if everyone can get a rank 5 city, then what's so special about having one?
I hope the character purge (whenever that happens) will take care of ghost towns and free up city rank slots. in the mean time, this isn't a bug so don't ask CSRs about it.

So we have no less lvl 4/5 cities than before but we are still capped.
are you sure some other city didn't take the spot before yours did?
otherwise, contact a CSR.

Yeah we are sitting at city expnasion capped, is very frustrating......... What bothers me most htere is a lvl 3 city on the map, but no city hall there. So whats up with that??
because city caps are bugged badly, sometimes when a city falls but one of the public buildings are left alive like catina it still is counted as city even it s not even there anymore
I also traveled once to a city via shuttle, when i landedi found out it was only lvl 3 without even having a shuttleport anymore but you could still buy tickets and fly there, well just one way

Because otherwise most of the map area, and all of the decent spawn areas would be lost on all the buildable planets. That means no destroy mission (factioned or not), no recon missions, no hunting missions, and now way for Rangers and Scouts like me to hunt for high quality meat so Docs can make high quality buffpacks to buff selfish arses like you! Try to think of someone elses playing style for once....

without caps corellia would look like corcruscant.
we don t want more cities we just can t stand that fact that most of the second generation cities on the heavily populated servers, like Bria, never got any chance to advance to level 4 because of the caps
there are level 3 cities with up to 90-100 citizens in and crowded arround teh cities, raising the caps wouldn t much affect the numbers of buildings there but it will help the cities a lot when they can get a shuttle port

Well then that's a different matter.If they can support that with the software and hardware they currentlyhave(which I don't think so), I don't care if all the cities are the highest level. What concerns me is crowding out of the "virtual" wilderness, where my character earns his credits.
