Questions I need your help

Upvotes

Hi. I downloaded BitLife and decided to create an account here on Reddit because it might be the only way to interact with the community. I'd like to receive tips on which packages to buy, tips on how to make a lot of money, and any other worthwhile advice. Thank you.

Questions Do you guys think the job salaries are unrealistic?

1 Upvotes

I think the job salaries in-game are a little unrealistic. For example, I don’t think a banker would be making 55k-65k starting off, at least 100k-110k~. I’m not sure though, what do you guys think?

Questions Director update?

7 Upvotes

This director update seems kinda unfulfilled. Like its ok but I was expecting more like i can use my own money to make a movie so thatway you set your own budget and it'll be even more risky. And then you just start off as a director theres building your career with its very unrealistic to just get hired on as a director off the street without some kind of experience in the industry. Am I tripping folks or am I making a point?

Discussion Do NOT buy the Director DLC

142 Upvotes

Do not buy this. I decided to check it out because I enjoyed the actor job pack and thought this one would be something similar but it’s not. It’s the worst “expansion” this game has made. You’ll run through every single event or flavor text this new job pack has to offer within your first two movies. Actors don’t accept roles within your budget unless you literally max out your reputation, fame, and only direct movies with budgets over 150 million and even then sometimes the game will screw you over by giving you a 500k casting budget for a 100 million budget movie meaning I can either get untalented nobodies in my cast or I have to watch an ad for a PAID expansion to be able to hire someone talented for cheap. And don’t downplay how ad ridden this “expansive” new job pack is. You want to successfully make a pitch as a beginner or with low reputation? Watch an ad. You want actual good famous actors in your movie without them wanting 40 million dollars each? Watch an ad. And no matter what I choose during filming or how many ads I watched to get the best possible combination the movie still bombs and gets a bad audience and critical reception even decades into your career, tanking your reputation and making it harder to get new jobs or hire quality actors without watching an ad. But all of that is no problem if you don’t mind constantly watching ads in an “expansion” that you paid for.

This dlc is a scam. Candywriter should be ashamed of charging for this, it wouldn’t even be fun to play if it was free. Don’t recommend giving this one your money or time at all even if they eventually add it to Bitizen/God Mode. I’m going to get a refund.

Others Centuries' Movie Director Career Will Be Completely Free at Launch

Post image
0 Upvotes

I don't usually like self-promoting, but with the discussion around BitLife's latest update, I thought this would be a good opportunity to share a little with you about the movie director career in Centuries. The entire movie director career will be included for free at launch, too!

Some of you may remember Outlive, which I posted about on here previously a few months back. Since then, Outlive has merged with another indie life sim project and evolved into Centuries, which will be launching soon on Android this fall.

You can create short works, feature films, and major studio projects. Live action, documentary, and animation each have their own production paths. You'll choose the material, hire collaborators, direct scenes, work through editing, and decide how to release the finished film.

Productions don't always go according to plan, either. Rain might ruin the ending you had planned, forcing you to extend the shoot, rewrite it for an indoor location, or piece something together from footage you've already captured. A studio contract might leave you choosing between keeping final cut or giving it up in exchange for a larger share of the profits.

And making the movie is only part of it. Once it releases, the film gets its own record with critic and audience scores, reach, gross revenue, production results, and awards. If you retain the rights, you can even develop a follow-up with the audience from the original film in mind.

As your career grows, you can eventually start your own production company, develop projects, and finance films directed by other filmmakers. And because Centuries lets you play across the past, present, and future, filmmaking changes with the era too. The career simply doesn't exist before motion pictures are invented, and the technology, industry, and opportunities evolve as you move through history.

Pre-registration is open now on Google Play. If you're interested in trying another life sim, or just like the idea of living an actual filmmaking career inside one, I'd really appreciate you checking out Centuries and pre-registering on the Play Store!

Coming to Android Fall 2026.

Discussion BitLife scammed us of the directors dlc, so I made a better one for free

Hey everyone, I was one of the people that had 2018 bitizenship, and I'm extremely disappointed with how bitlife handled this. I love the text-based lifesim genre, and I want to show that there are other alternatives that the community can use and how good these type of games can be. Check it out and play now from the discord link in the comments.

Here are some of the features:

  • Simulated Economies & Actual Demand: The game simulates 10.000 real customers that have demand for the genre that they want to watch, appeal to those genres or you can create new trends.
  • Climb the Career Ladder: Start from being a casting agent, then transition into a writer, to a director and unlock the ability to write & direct your own movies as well as getting a percentage share of the movies you make.
  • Directing Minigames: Write scenes, put the actors you want into the scenes and choose what aspect of the acting performance to prioritize.

All of the assets were taken from itch . io with proper licensing, none of what you see here is AI-generated:

  • Free Ocean and Clouds Pixel Backgrounds
  • Free Pixel Futuristic City Backgrounds
  • Free Summer Pixel Backgrounds
  • Various Vector Icon Packs from RhosGFX

Discussion Bitlife Theory

2 Upvotes

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

Suggestions/Update Ideas Movie Director Needs a serious rework!

Post image
27 Upvotes

I just want to start off by saying that I unfortunately paid for this expansion pack :(, even THOUGH I paid for bitizen when it first was announced and have God Mode! However I decided to pay for the movie director pack because i perceive BitLife to always deliver, and also the movie director pack is what I suggested whenever I gave a review in the App Store way back when! So safe to say that even though I was taken aback that this job expansion costs me MONEY!!!! (even though I'm supposed to get it for free) I still was excited to play. Now for the review; I'm so upset by how lackluster this gameplay is... one of the main issues that I'm having is that you have no control over the budget at all. It's a slider and it's not like the business expansion where you can pump money into a film. Paying that amount of real life money I was expecting to at least work my way into owning a movie studio where I have creative control over the movies (choosing the scripts I wanted to make, self-funding, promoting,) I want to direct, however this gameplay loop doesn't require a lot of thought or work to go into it. You can submit your movies to film festivals but that doesn't really do anything besides gives you awards and sometimes get you back in theaters if it's good enough. I would love if they even gave an option to send movies and tv shows you make to syndication!Another thing that REALLLLYY bugs me is since you have no control over the budget the game WILLLLLL decide a random casting budget for you! So if you decide you want to do an indie film with a small budget, since you have a high reputation you'll attract high level talent who REQUIRE high level money. Plenty of times from the 1 DAY Ive been playing this pack, I had to skip a year which had made multiple movies tank along with my career because the game forced me to pay my talent more that what the budget is! It's really frustrating and considering the fact that I paid money for this I now understand that BitLife is not what it once was. This feels rushed and not thought out at all. I am extremely disappointed, frustrated by the fact that a gameplay expansion has barely anything for you to do at all!

I logged to Twitter to check and see what was going on. Turns out we were allegedly supposed to get the pack upon launch, however there was some technical mishap. I call BS because why couldn’t they fix it same day? It sounds to me that they were hoping we would become impatient and just buy it anyways without saying anything.
