Trees

I know we can buy extra trees with MM, but considering how much MM is needed for other things too, it would be nice to either have more permits for CC for trees or some more trees, otherwise it is very difficult to build a green looking city.

It would also be nice to have more natural decorations. At the moment we only have 6 trees (not including the hammock and small island) and 6 shrubs/flower decorations (not including the two fences).

If the game develops this way, cause it is a City game, not nature or park game ...... I also "need" for more "nature like" and more natural looking decorations. Even those rocks which I keep where they were on a new land trying to incorporate them in my urban development make nice decorations. Nature-wise it's realy poor.

 

i agree again!

 

I'm currently planning a park area in my city, so I can use the grass for that, but the tree permits are so few and far between I will likely just have a huge square piece of grass in the middle of my city!

 

Fill everything you can with 'turf'. Not only is it green, it gathers drops during events. Let the wild trees grow, keep removing the logs and stuff to let the trees grow in. They don't count as decorations, but they look nice.

 

they should make turf improve the mood aswell

 

yep they should

 

Yeap, I tought about it too. it would be great if they willl give permits for a tree with a size if 2x2, and around it would be grass.

 

It would be nice to have more types of trees as well -- possibly some in bloom. Also, lawns and small parks(as decoration items, 2X2 tiles) could be great. We can sort of make them with the turf tiles, but they are not in the same scale as houses.
I do not think that because this is a city building game there is no place for trees and other natural items. City design incorporates natural areas and parks within the built areas.

I couldn't agree more!

 

we could get some very tall trees also

 

I don't want to be repeating someone else has said, but it would be very nice to have more types of flower (and trees, but you have already said it).

PS. I may have did mistakes, English is not my mother tongue.

 

As to the existing trees and number of cc permits I have to disagree in the most infinitesimal way...I am Level 43 and have won so many permits from booster packs and the comets and Loot-O'-Matic I have trees coming out of my ears. I even kept some of the nicer looking ones because they do improve the city's look. Other than my fine point I agree 100% that we need more trees and natural deco, and better ones at that. A tree should add more than +5 mood especially if it's a huge old oak with a picnic bench under it. We need some bigger and nicer trees that put out better mood levels. Or at least some different looks. I have a park built around my event center, with the lover's pond, sakura tree, and a few other niceties. I would like to be able to expand on that...but at the low mood output, it's hard to side with trees and keep up (and that's just wrong). So, yes, they should add more natural decor. How about a 2x2 "park" that has a nice tree, flowers, and a picnic bench, and like +500 happy for a reasonable amount of cc or mm?

 

I'd definitely like more plant variety, and some more fences. Palms that can actually be put on the beach (sans hammock), plain rocks, hills, water… Even just some more flowers would have a lot of effect. With the new playfields there is plenty of space to not put buildings, and what we have gets repetitive. Though to be fair, nature decos do take up about half of all decos.

One thing that I don't like about the current plants is that they're always in a planter. Groups of cypress look rather odd, especially on farm land. Firs somewhat less. I'm fine letting natural trees grow, but more natural-looking decos would be cool. It'd be nice to have the gravel paths not restricted to the shore also. They would be nice in a park area with some box shrubs.
