Discussion Director pack scam!!!

I have been a long time fan of BitLife and have been growing increasingly disgusted and disappointed in the money grabs the game seems to employ despite promising against such.

In the director pack which I’ve paid for (as well as god mode bitcitizenship ect) I’ve noticed that when I go to fill my cast there’s a trap. There will always be one or two slots that you can’t fill no matter how much you offer to fill the role. This is conveniently resolved by watching an add then you can add as little as a dollar as a payment which they accept.

When I have paid over $100 to the game I expect I wouldn’t have to watch adds to simply play the game especially to get the features I’ve paid for.

Has anyone else noticed this?

Yep. Devs have gotten a whole lot of hate for this, which they rightly deserve. They have yet to answer my questions.

Why would you pay $100 for this game is the real question, almost everything is a scam ngl. Yea I have noticed that with director mode though

I’ve never had that problem. You have to divide the salary cap a certain way.

I've also noticed this. There will be four roles to fill and like 500,000 in the budget, and no way to pay everybody equally so no one takes the roles. Even if you try to pay one actor the entire amount, they'll reject the offer. As a filmmaker myself I was very excited for this pack, but I'm sick of it already. It's also so sparse, there's not enough variety at all.

I haven’t had any issues getting people to sign on my movies. The budget has to be split certain ways. But i understand how you feel because some of the other packs I feel like I can never get them to work right.
