  1. I'm posting here as it seems to be the most used part of the forum at the moment (so this will allow for the most amount of people to see this post)

    @Mark has recently put an update on the Road To Success Facebook page (a week ago), I realised some people may not have know about this or may not have access to Facebook. So I'm posting the update here so eveyone is able to see it 😃  I hope everyone is staying safe!

  2. @Mark

    I've tried everything from copying the save and opening it, closing the game and restarting. Its just not helping. The issue occurs when I try to click on a save, as soon as I click a save (but not click load yet) it freezes and then the game automatically closes.

  3. I was playing a game from 2021 to 2027. After the brit awards in 2027 I tried to see what awards had been won (in the awards section of the game). It showed nothing and was completely blank. So I save the game and then reloaded it to see if it would fix.

    However, now the game won't even open. When I click load game the whole window just turns off and dissapears. 

     

    Can someone please help? @Mark is this a common bug?

    It gets longer to simulate or save in the game the further i get into the game! It’s taking hours to simulate just one week! I don’t think this is alright! 

    How far into the game are you now? How many weeks/ years have you simulated?

    So this issue brings up a number of problems I'm battling with.

    1. Smaller charts with lower sales figures are affected so much more dramatically than the higher one.

    2. If I made it so it was near impossible for an exceptional release to do well id get complaints.

     - So to counter this I plan to do the following.

    Hard mode will make it extremely hard for you to chart well without reputation. It wont make the next patch but maybe the one after.

    3. I still need to reduce the frequency of very high quality tracks being produced.

    What about if you just made the streaming to sale ratio in smaller sale countries larger. This would then maybe help with the high charting situation?

    I know that due to our previous experience, you've decided to limit the charting to only 2 album tracks per album to prevent too much of album tracks flooding the singles chart. I noticed that the 100th song in the US chart has 20,000 sales which require roughly 3,000,000 US streams (no CD or digital sales included), which means that at least 6,000,000 or more worldwide streams are required (assuming that 40-50% of worldwide streams are coming from the US). Based on this calculation, all of the tracks from my album have more than enough streams to enter the singles chart. So, it feels unfair that they're not charting since they're eligible here.

    But I also understand that if you change here, every other album tracks from all albums will enter the main singles charts like crazy. Therefore, I suggest that the requirement for album tracks to enter the singles chart should be raised higher, meaning greater streams to sales ratio (not using the 1: 150, maybe 1:1250 or something). But the limit of two per album should be removed in my opinion cause these days some artists even debut their entire album in the singles charts.

    In the UK (not sure about other counties), the same issue happened in real life with Ed sheerhan. All of his album songs were really high in the charts, so the official charts company decided to introduce a rule that only 3 album songs can be in the charts at any given time. (The highest charting ones first). So in the game you could pretent that this is the case 🤣🤣

    Is it possible to have artist release collab projects even though they arent in a band.

    In what way do you mean? Do you mean having an artist features on a song?

    Would like to see something like:

    1x Bassist 1x Piano 1x Guitar (like clean bandit) so i can simulate having a feature artist on every song 👍🤣🤣

    Performance invitations (results on the charts too, or at least notify that our artist is going to perform), awards performances should go to Youtube. More numbers of performances at the awards (if possible mechanics to choose the total number of performances). And have the option of not showing the live event, because it gets in the way when you want to skip the weeks without having to watch the game.

    Invitations is a cool idea. More performances at awards is already possible if you use the editor. And most of my award shows don't even show for me and it skips them anyway (maybe this is a bug for @mark to look at)

    WAIT SORRY actually the first feature is already included 

    Yes, was just thinking that 🤣 

    But I think ut would be cool if we could choose the date if release (as some artist release lyric videos before the song is out to create hype).

    I think we should be able to tweak the certification numbers as we raise the sales levels. Especially in asian playthroughs, it gets a lot unrealistic when South Korea sells so little and we know how a huge market we have in there. So when we lift the sales we end up getting to many certifications and it gets too unrealistic. So If we can't change that ourselves, could you a least change that for us?

    Here's some numbers we have available in ceritifications for South Korean market on internet.

    For songs.

    For albums.

    The japanese too are a little different.

    Maybe these will work better now that you've implemented the flop mechanism and the charts are more filled with regional songs.







    Thank you for consideration.

    I think certifications should remain like they are in reality. But its more about getting actual sales figures correct 🙂

    So it only fails to work when you set all as a filter, this is correct?
