I know that i shouldn't rely on estimates, but i've haven't encountered such a huge delay before. I had a 2x 21 days aprox before, which was done withing 24 days. Now i did an aprox 10 days construction which is taking near 20 days. I wonder if that was a bug or just VERY poorly estimated....

I once had a construction which was estimated to take 6 days and took 19. The next 6 day construction was built in 6 days.

Its quite hard to predict how long it will take to build.

It seems so unrealistic... I mean i can get 3000 seats to finish in 24 days, but i can't finish a 900-1200 seats in 20 days....

I was building (at the time) 160 seats and it took 20 days. Talk about slow workers.

I've gotta say, I'm not really sure what this delayed construction adds to the game.

Can I ask what the game play thinking behind that rule is?

Realism? Construction delays and overestimation are about as realistic as you get get :)

One solution I've heard proposed which would seem reasonable (please let me know if you think it would be better) is to have the arena estimate turn into a real number of days immediately at the moment you complete the order, so that once the order is finished you will know when the arena gets completed.

It's still more realistic this way, but it would allow teams to plan a little better.


If nothing else making that change would cut down on the number of bug reports about the arena being stuck. I think it would a good improvement and at least let people know when they should report a legitimate issue.
