a new sign just popped up on the far right edge of the strip....but i have NO way of expanding since i sold most my blue maps right before they became bots-only, thinking I?d have a chance to replenish them later when I need to. Well, at this point, I really don?t know how I?ll ever be able to expand there, since I have NOT seen a blue map drop from my hundreds and hundreds of deliveries in the last month and a half.............

Ok all as stated expansion papers set number two and three for land can no longer be bought and sold in the marketplace.
I notice that the number of items needed to expand is not as high so let's see how it goes.
Opinions have been stated by a few players quite strongly so let's all be nice and do a wait and see approach.
The game is about sending a lot of planes especially if you want experience points and in addition you get six points for each plane sent during Leaderboard. You are not losing money as you can still put the items up for sale and bots will buy them.
Here's hoping a fair amount of papers drop from Plane Deliveries.
Looking forward to boosted weekends too.

can’t say it any better, ms judy!
been keeping my fingers crossed i’ll start seeing blue drops soon too (sent 10 from my last post but no luck yet)~
p.s. and honestly, i think it’s been quite a few AWESOME years in the game — getting great events and being able to help each other out during the events (and seriously, i take being able to help each other out during events over being able to buy maps ANY DAY ) ....can’t really remember the last time i got super bummed over something FS2-related......maybe the stingy chickens that kept me up at all hours collecting?! LOL

Sorry I?ve been away from the game. So what people are saying is they are no longer for sale? 2nd and new blue ones? I haven?t had a single drop ever. I?m at level 100. I really hope this is a mistake because no way will I ever use gems. It may really be the end of playing. Not fun otherwise.
I can’t speak for lower level players because I know higher and lower sometimes have different requirements but as a level 100 I have to get 27 of each to expand. That’s not a small amount. I get the wait and see and okay I will but let’s hope it’s just not delaying the inevitable.
Okay I played the game and posted my 20 plane drops and as expected no expansion parts. I haven’t had any since they stopped them a couple weeks ago. Let’s stop the distraction and get the programmers back from vacation or other projects and fix this. Seriously - post your lack of expansion parts from 20 deliveries. What next?
I constantly get old expansion parts that I haven?t needed in years & haven?t received any new expansion parts in months. 100s of plane deliveries
Just took a look and not a single person has reported in their post yet with any sort of decent drop rate with them. Seeing that, and a great deal of these posts and complaints aren't unfounded or at least not within a bit of reason.
For 1, the removal of selling these were random. There was no announcement beforehand, so players could hold onto the ones they still had on them. I sold the extra ones I had on me because I didn't know they could no longer be bought by/sold to actual playing players, and just to bots. I regret that now, as players can't help you by selling theirs off, and the drop rate is already low for a fair amount of players. Myself included for the 3rd ones at least. An announcement before the "intended change" happened would've been nice. I actually think players would be a bit less mad / sad about it if they knew or was made aware beforehand. (I know I would've been at least) Because they could've either still saved the ones they had up until that point, or stocked up from the market or whatever before they were gone from being sellable.
For 2, It kinda ties in to the 1st part, the drop rate seems to already be low for a fair amount of players. So removing the option to sell them makes expanding even harder when the drop rate is low - again for some.
End post; I can understand majority complaints with this. If you take things into actual consideration and don't write it off as some players being a certain way or not seeing the bigger picture. --- No announcement,, the drop rate is already low for some, etc etc. Not saying each and every complaint is justified, but what I am saying is I can at least understand why some players are saying certain things about this or even have strong opinions towards it or about it - especially if it isn't slanderous/mean towards the company or other players. Nothing wrong with voicing your opinion towards or against this, but I don't think invalidating what others are feeling about it is making things better either.
