Paris Campaign : Too few custeomers

[kirksigi]

I struggle with the mission in paris where you first have to repair the restaurant and then serve 100 pizzas. No matter what I tried. There are just a few customers every day. Sometimes just 3 customers. of course I run out of money all the time.
I tried more pizzas with not too much different ingredients. Just focusing on the rushhours or keeping the restaurant open 24 hours. Full storage, more employees. I have no idea what I am doing wroing. The only thing I don't underand: At the daily statistics. Delivery is just 1%, but the storage is full.

Any advice?

Few questions for you, and sorry if they will look dumb or basic, but you give us very few insight on how you do things.

First this very first restaurant is near a factory and thus you may have quite a decent amount of workers. Do you have the right "design" for them to entice that very group to enter your restaurant ?
Then you have a fairly decent amount of Elders, tourists and students that you can gather with your radius from the metro and the ouses around. There is a design (not sure of the name in english so I won't give you the answer) that fits those 3 groups all at once...

Finally, how many chairs do you put around a single table ? Are you aware you are not limited to only 4 chairs as long as they have an access to them ? you can have more than that, and since tables are big in this game, and your starting rooms not always so big, maybe you have to look toward that.

With me, that restaurant is open only from 3am to 9pm (03:00 -> 21:00) and I had no issues at all reaching that number.

Finally your pizza design. Do not rely too much early on on getting smiley faces with your created pizza. Fit ingredients that again target those groups you'll have chairs for. It's not unusual for me to simply dismiss a very small amount of customers that will either take too much of needed space to accomodate the likes as far as design goes, and I focus then on mostly 3-4 groups of targetted customers.

Don't be ashamed to use some of the base pizza that are already created in game, some works wonder as far as selling goes, but will probably never really give you the hints about what a customer group like the most.

To me, your main issue may really reside with your targetted group. What worked in Rome may not work here, so pay close attention to what groups belongs the people that are hungry and that walk within your reaching radius. Doing so was really a walk in the park completing that goal.

And finally, as ~12:00 was the peak point of the restaurant, I did double my servers for 1 single cook to be able to serve the rush hour.

Hope it helps.

Before the patch hundreds of people were stopping at the resteraunt fron the start. Now, no matter what I've tried, no more than 3/4 people per day... you can't change the design in order to attract the workers cause at the beginning of the level you can't research a thing.

What i saw from the patch while I was still in Rome (so I started to play Paris AFTER the patch) was that many peeps were not really impacted by what furnitures style you had... So in my restaurants I had all types of groups coming in in bunch.

Now they are impacted by the furniture style. So while I was in Rome, all of a sudden, groups that I had in bunch in my restaurant stopped coming in and complained about the style.

Again, apllying what I said above allowed me to walk through that without any issue. and it was again to be very clear, after the patch.

do you use the x3 speed? u cant make money with this speed set speed max to x2.

u can change the design and layout in every camp mission from beginn and dont need to research anything for this (at start).

if u dont like the starting restaurant just let it closed (for a short time) and buy one u rly like and build it up ^^

Thanks BonPadre. Your comment was helpful. I t was the wrong furniture styling. Now they are flocking in - and so does the money :)

Glad it was that ;-)

Just remember you can, due to that mechanic, really target only 1 or 2 customer group, and propose only 1 pizza made specifically for that group.

Anyway, have fun with the game
