I've been pushing for a method where you don't exactly know when it will be before you commit, but once you do, you'll know exactly what day it will be.

A CT? Really?
Any two will do
Any three for me

I wouldn't mind that either. If it takes 18 days for everyone, then be it. But if it once takes like 8 days and the next time 18, thats what makes me a bit bewildered.

I read what JuicePats was saying a little differently, I think... as in, you would choose the number and type of seats to upgrade, and it would say:

This construction will take approximately 8 days. Continue?

Then when you agree and lock in the construction it would say (after applying some randomness)

The construction will be complete in 18 days.

...or 8, or 11, or whatever. So the same upgrade might actually take 8 days one time and 18 the next, but at least you would know once you committed.

It's annoying, but most likely not a bug - arena times can not change for days at a time.


It is a bug if it doesn't do what it's supposed do. So maybe we don't understand how it's supposed to work?

I started the expansion about 2 weeks ago I think, dunno what the estimated time was. But last sunday it said 6 days left, then it was 6 days for 3 days in a row. Then suddenly it was 4 days for two days in a row, and today it went to 2 days.
So kind of strange, but still on schedule.

I don't think it's a bug, I just completed an expansion last week that took awhile, but did complete. I don't think building is "stuck".

Basically.

The arena time can either decrease by zero days, one day, or even occasionally 2 days.

Zero days is fairly common.

i think what everyone wants is a direction as to what time frame should a project be made rather than a blind estimate meaning we are waiting till the number of days of construction date reaches 0 because of the delay.

because if we are to delay and not knowing the cause of it, it really gets to us i mean me! 3 days of contruction delay could be 10 days of our normal days here on earth.

why not make it an establish way, meaning if the delay was due to weather ( snow, rain , hailstorm, tornado, earthquake etc) or supplies issue or whatever must be indicated? would it be best?

why cant it be clear as to why we are having a delay, i mean we are monitoring our team, arena and everything so why wouldnt we be not allowed to know whats keeping our investment behind.
