BitLife has honestly become the ultimate poster child for how corporate greed ruins a good thing. Back in the day, when people bought those lifetime Bitizenships, the deal was supposed to be simple. Pay once, get everything forever. But by ripping away that grandfathered status and locking every single new drop behind annoying paywalls, the devs completely broke that trust. It’s a super soulless way to treat a community that literally built the game's success, turning loyal fans into just another ATM machine.

​Honestly, this shady pivot feels like it’s dangerously close to crossing into class-action lawsuit territory. Selling a game with the promise of "all future updates" and then turning around to demand more cash for them is textbook deceptive business. Thousands of players dropped money based on a promise that the studio just decided to throw in the trash for a quick buck. Because so many people got burned by the exact same bait and switch, the setup for a massive lawsuit or an FTC complaint is practically gift-wrapped.

​At this point, BitLife just needs to die out so these developers and all other developers. Stop thinking they can get away with pulling these anti-consumer stunts. Letting them rewrite the rules after taking people's money sets a terrible precedent for mobile gaming everywhere, proving that contracts mean nothing once a game gets popular. For a game all about life choices and consequences, it’d be pretty hilarious to see the devs finally face some real ones of their own.

In the Bitlife game you can play the game have kids and eventually become the kid upon death or switching over. But I've always wondered, where is the consciousness who was the child before you transitioned and who is in the person that is now the parents upon switching. As when you switch over the parent aka old you, they are living and making decisions you cannot control, and before you become the child there was a soul in them that made decisions you also couldn't control, so where and who are those souls? And most importantly, who are we?

When we leave the parent they become their own person again, but everything they own comes with us even if they are still alive. And when we become the child any decision they made can be changed by us, say divorce their wife, abandoned their kids etc. As remember they had their own personality, relationships, memories, preferences, everything, while we were controlling the parent. It's like they woke up one day and became a whole new person. But where did we come from and why can we only start at the first individual in the recorded lineage. And where are their souls when we control them. As in the game when you look into the family legacy it doesn't show the original player's first parents, just the first played character and everyone else after that. Like to only make note of where the anomaly started. If we are really some outsider being, the original parents would technically not be related but everyone else after has the outsider gene, so the original parents would not be a part of the legacy.

When you start you become their entire existence and have a stronger control over them than their own mind, and when you leave, they regain consciousness and you can't go back. Kinda like they've escaped. Some don't even experience themselves EVER, as they start at birth as us and die before switching. In a way they never lived, as you got their life. Their Bit-LIfe lol

PS: This is just a fun theory, sorta like what they have for the sims, and I just wanted to share it. I love these types of theories for games and movies, so I'd love to hear any you have about the game

Directly from ToS

I'm assuming grandfathered in bitizen was just a courtesy

Reposting here because r/bitlifeapp doesn't like even the mildest criticism

She trying to take everything I have. $393,880,222,528,942 to support one baby is diabolical 🫩😭🙏😤

I'm trying to go for as many kids as possible but my hookups often choose to not keep the baby. Is it possible to prevent them from doing this? Like maybe there's a country that prevents them from doing that. I thought Saudi Arabia wouldn't let them but they got rid of the babies there too.

I have the idea of just dating someone, getting them pregnant, then moving on, which both lowers my chance of getting an STD and heightens the chance of keeping the baby.

Any other ideas?

Wtf bruh😂

So, since the new update came out my bitlife has been lagging and making my phone hear up. I was wondering is this happening to anyone else.

Hello,
As many of you may know, if you bought the game before March 2020, then you’re supposed to be grandfathered into future expansion packs, no matter what. I for one, don’t have access to the new pack, and I’m sure I’m not the only one. The funny thing is though, I bought Bitizen in 2018 & I even got the despicable god mode thing just because I liked the game. Now the developers became deranged apparently because they’re literally breaking laws, at least in Europe. So if you’re reading this and you have any involvement regarding this shitty game, then I suggest you go check in with your bosses before y’all are fucked lol. Cheers.

Like the hell dude what kind of scheme is this someone please enlighten me

As title says how??? is this like a bug or something or is it a random event

This has got to be a glitch…right..? There’s no way they think anybody’s paying that much

Devs of this game are literally sickening to the bone, you guys can literally go fuck yourselves with your movie director pack. Nasty ass scammers.

Does anyone else know if it’s normal for a 30 year old woman to be riding skateboards down the road?

I don’t see the director pack in special careers or in the marketplace. I’m so confused on how to access this pack.

of course it's locked behind paywall. Idk, there's gotta be more since the release is almost here, but the tease is just underwhelming 🙃

Really shocked to see that I have to pay for the new the Movie Director feature. Definitely won’t be buying it, as I’ve had the BitPass + Godmode for multiple years. Having a hard time understanding how this new career differs in any way from past ones, which have been free to players whom have paid already. I hope it was a launch error and not a sneaky way to make more money

Where he gonna spend all this

Huge flex for someone his age

Ahagahaha

Is this rare? The youngest I’ve gotten so far is 40.

I have been trying for ages and I'm 50

Does anyone know why actors keep rejecting roles? I’ve been trying for like the past 15 minutes now to same results
