This may go on for a bit so excuse me in advance.
I am conflicted on this update. At the same time, I both hate and love this update at the same time. Love for the potential for this to be amazing. Hate because why are half the buildings looking like Jeffrey Epsteins LSD inspired child palaces and then.... progress to become like a radioactive shield or something that looks to be a psychedelic nightmare of a building in Dubai...
Idk, I'm just calling a spade a spade here, the Sheep is whacky looking IMO, and I do not make this post out of hate or bad intention. I admit happily that I see the direction things are going in terms of more.. stylish and unique buildings... these are just so out of place and whacky looking, and with no option to change them I feel anxiety looking at them.
Potential idea for a tweak/upgrade is to allow people to individually change their building and maybe lead to a "remodeling" or "customization" of said HQ via having to buy the appropriate parts off the market such as how building upgrades are done, once purchased one could potentially tweak colors, designs, add one, etc and make unique buildings instead of all of our buildings looking like this.
Great idea, current execution is a bit off, I make this post part in humor and a big part in hopes that the devs will eventually knock this one out of the park 😀

as pointed out by others, the first steps look great and they fit the style of the game. the last ones do not. this opens up a very terrifying option: that future updates will make this game look my little ponies are working in my factories and i can not stress enough that this would be a unwise decision since the game has a clear focus on realism. and there are two factors with that: shape and color. if you would have slapped a descend texture on the cylinder thing, it is still a lazy design, dont get me wrong, but making it yellow is below lazy. yes: modern buildings have waky gemoetries. ok. thats modern. i dont like it, but i am old. so what. but imagine the ugly Burj Al Arab in yellow. urks and now imagine the majastic empire state building in yellow thats also urks! keep the colors where you are with the game. thats fitting. and i would love to see also clear shapes. pasteboard.co/JZnH8iD.jpgthis is something that i made in 3 minutes .. it has a clear proression. start with the end product and work backwards, slap some texures on and it works. pls keep the game in the optics it is. its clean, its clear and its not my little pony. i like that. it makes this game different to any other mobile game on the market.

there are everytime people who dont like this and like the others. no solution would suit all. how about: with every player lvl there are more HQ buildings free to select. but the player itself has to shose what HQ he want on his map.

To work hard on my business and then choose the HQ that I like... I think this is an excellent idea!

I think this is an excellent idea! what if you have to buy "better" (looking) HQ's with ingame money? in reality your HQ doenst look better just because you made more money.

I think there won't be lots of buyers if HQ looks like yellow cylinders.

true, but the devs would have a metric to see what design we like and could base future decisions on that .. ie not even bother to render those lazy designs because nobody uses them ... buuuut perhaps we are wrong and zoomers like it that way? its possible after all...

I do want to say I love the look and art style of the new HQ however it just I don't think it fits the theme of the map, my 2 cents anyway...

Your feedback was heard, and important changes were made to the design. For that reason, the poll has now been locked.
The final results are in: 42% of the voters liked the design, and 58% did not. On the public voting platform (Google), the votes were 35% for and 65% against.
Thank you for participating in voting, and more importantly, thank you for commenting on the subject!

omg this update was so trash i almost wanted to quit when i saw it. if i was running a company and it got this much disapproval i would of fired the person who designed it on the spot. i mean wth the scheme is square. the entire game is very square and i have a cylindrical shaped HQ? whoever designed this had 0 IQ im sorry. also the shade on the trees dont even go in the right direction as the other trees on the buildings. Look design is everything in a game. The game is fantastic but the design is so trash it makes me want to quit I hope you do quit - don't need someone like you fouling the place up. If you don't like something, state your point and your improvement - don't flame it to the ground.

Thanks for quick fix. This office building is better than previous yellow shapes. Just 2 comments on this building. 1. Logo would look more realistic if it would be on side of the office not on helipad. But seems like building design does not allow to place it anywhere else. 2. Something is wrong with shadow. Don't know what - colour, shape, direction? Building looks like floating. Compare shadow to trees or buildings next to office.

Definitely like the revised HQ. The yellow building with a putting green on top just didnt work for me.
I really wouldn't mind it being moved back a slot (north of where it is now). Thats not nearly as big of a deal to me though.
