What has an option everyone can set as they please have to do with 'forcing‘?DON'T force anything into sandbox please, developers. Some of us like it to be completely creative. It IS sandbox, there are already campaigns and challenges.
Not to mention that you already can set cash to unlimited when you just want to build. So even if they did simply adjust those prices to be consistent with other maps and more balanced it still wouldn’t affect that creative part at all.
And yes, it’s sandbox, so it should offer all the option possible to let everyone play as they choose and that includes setting prices to a more challenging amount.
