Problems with the 2 new ratings

[ZeUbermensch]

Hello, this is my first post on this forum.

I've been playing this game since alpha, and it's been great to see it grow so much!

However, I've run into a few problems since the latest beta patch, 1.1.77:

One of my biggest cities in patch 1.1.75, with over 15k habitants, got completely destroyed since this patch. I used to make over a million per month and also had many tall buildings, but since this patch all of them got abandoned and I was also losing 100k per month. While it's understandable that cities might change between updates, this was simply brutal.

Nonetheless, I have run into a bigger problem. Whenever I start a new city, everything seems fine: I build only what's necessary at first (i.e. water and energy) and add more as I go on, like elementary schools for middle class inhabitants and other things, such as hospitals and parks.

Yet I always get stuck at 80% rating, despite me giving them everything I got. I have even tried sandbox mode: I placed all schools, parks everywhere, hospitals and police stations. Nothing changes at all, even middle class people don't come in!

Upon closer inspection, I see the problem: 2 "influences". Supply and Transportation. Those two things stay at 50%, and frustrate me to no end. I know the Supply rating refers to water and energy supply, yet it stays at 50%. I've replaced (in Sandbox mode, of course) all dirt roads with country roads, placed bus stops everywhere and created loads of trains. It's no use, everything stays at 50%, ruining any chance I have of making a prosper city.

Sorry for writing such a rant. I'm not angry, but curious. What has changed so much that this happens?

Hope Lobby or Theo could reply, as to clear up my doubts.

Same here. My 200,000 city now 67000. Transpotation 50% everywhere.

Another city with complete train station coverage also transportation 50% everywhere.

This needs to be fixed ASAP.

Wow, that's awful. I saw your city in the screenshots section, simply spectacular. I wonder how much it must have taken to build.

I think it took two weeks real time.

More feedback on the new beta:
It is very tedious increasing/decreasing taxes by .1 increments. Please change this back.
