Yes!

I brought this subject up a while back suggesting a district cap of 400.

Cap on district toon levels

About time this subject was addressed again now that total population has nearly doubled!

But now i think 450 with a buffer of 50 to allow teleporting toons access to friends in that dist. This makes total cap of 500, which will make 2 other dist more populated during busiest times.

There was a number who said that what if they wanted to tp to a friend in capped dist, well if the 50 buffer is not full then u should be able to, if it is then go to slightly less busy district and get your friend to tp to you (Its not rocket science now is it).

If your getting 4 friends for build or 8 for vp or cfo, why would u want to go to lag city anyway?

I know one thing when it hits the 900 on dist it just gets ridiculous.

I think there should be no limit, because what if a toon has no friends on and wants to CFO and both of the busiest districts are full? Then, they'd have to wait around. If your computer runs slow in a busy district then just don't go into them, I personally like busy districts because it's easier to mint, fac, VP and CFO.

yes, but i believe that some toons start a ruccuss in those building and districts because they say even lp:70's need more laff points!

What they need to do is upgrade their servers. Toontown has many performance issues that need to be addressed directly, not worked around.

Example: Toontown's known memory leak issue. Instead of telling me I need to upgrade my system, they need to fix it on their end.

That's my opinion, anyway. Can't tell me Disney doesn't have the money or the resources! Seems to me that TT is hardly a priority for them. If that's the case, they need to drop their monthly subscription price to about half of what it is.

with the buffer - yes.

without - no.

I wouldn't be fair to be told 'that district is too busy to teleport to your friend'

Yes I agree busy dist is only place to cfo, if u cant get at least 6 friends together, and i have had best near best cfo recently in second busy dist when it was around the 450 mark!!!(think im trying to say something there). I have never had a sucessfull VP or CFO in busy dist when it hits 600 or over in most cases i give up after 30mins of elevator swapping, and 700 or over you have to be pretty quick and lucky to get the building u want and just try getting in bullion mint with 700+ its a nightmare. District capping is not just about the lag u may or not get, i dont lag that heavily in busiest districts, but i can't get what i want done if its too busy either.

I just think when I see one Dist with 900+ one with 600+ and the others on 200ish, I think to my self wish there were 3 dists at 500 or 4 at 450 even, only way thats ever gonna happen is with a limit.

This is the reason why I play tt germany. Bcuz they have 4 districts and the ppl over there dont cram into a certin district.

The districts are...

Bescheueritz
Dummsdorf
Flipphöhe
Willkommen-Tal

The only non-poputated one is Willkommen-Tal and thats only because its a welcome valley. Flipphöhe is ussually the one with the most ppl in it. The mosyt ive ever seen was in the line-uup like this...

Bescheueritz - 21
Dummsdorf - 42
Flipphöhe - 125
Willkommen-Tal - 13

Thats a ussuall line-up. But lately I just cant stand the lagg. So thats y I like to play with the less ppl. I think we should do what u ppl said abouve me.

sorry but this is probably one of the worst ideas ive heared suggested...seriously itd be terrible cuz once a district is full all the other toons who need to be in a populated area are out of luck thats like saying lets lower the amount of gags toons can hold...sorry i guess i just dont see it as a good thing...i dont see how it would help..

I think that the game would run easier and more smooth if there were between 300-400 people per district. If you make it 500, three or four districts would have 500, and the rest would be around 120. If all the districts were equal, people wouldn't need to change.

So why are they out of luck? If u cant get on one dist the next down will fill up just as quick, if like now there 700 on dist, with cap 250 would be on on dist, and as most dists by then would have around a 100, thats makes another dist with 350-400 on it, then u have more busy dist to choose from.

You'd prefer a dist with 900 tooons in it instead of 2 with 450??, or even 3 at 400, cause others will fill another dist when one gets enough on it. I never failed to get a build, fact or mint done with just 350-400 people on the one dist, you may have to wait a min or two (at worst) but toons will come on along, and there no elevator shuffle cause there no choice when less are waiting.

CFO and VP may be a longer wait, if you wait outside you'll soon attract enough attention to get a group together. I'd prefer 10mins of waiting to 20mins of shuffling and loging back in that comes from busy dist now.

There will be short periods where there maybe be not enough toons to spread over more than one dist, but thats not long and nothings perfect, other MMORPGS have use capping successfully, why not TT??
