Facebook friends requirement is not right. I absolutely love this game and I am obsessed with it but soon will no longer be able to play it because of the friend requirements to expand. I am not going to spend money to buy gems anf i will not bug my friends on facebook to play it and i will not add strangers to my facebook account so i cannot advance and this ruins the fun of the game.

w this for sure i will never connect anot
I had the same issue months ago. I actually started a new profile on a different device without facebook. SP just ignored my plea to unlink my facebook profile on my original device, as I don't want professionals looking at my facebook account and see all the kids I've got linked to my account. I eventually got desperate and invited extra random people to my main profile. It sure helps to upgrade dragons to A+ in challenges.
FYI I actually created a Dragon city Facebook account for my second device as there I can randomly invite people from all over the world. Who knows maybe I'll learn 100+ new languages so I can speak with them;)
Only reason I see the benefit of the facebook linking, is for the challenges as described above. Nothing else.

Post count: 551Reputation: 176Joined:@gilberto-silva Hey, be careful of that. I recently got my dragon city account at risk because Facebook deactivated my FB as it is not a true person.
So, I lost the security of that game account as it does not save my game data except on the device.
Since device gets old, it means that once it is deleted there, SP/dragon city will state that they cannot give you a copy of your game data because that's why they ask us to connect to FB/Google.
Any advice is welcome off course on how to solve this issue.

Post count: 551Reputation: 176Joined:if you are in Android, you can still connect via google and open the game in new device (without deleting the data on your old phone OFF COURSE).
PS: It did not open up for me because I did not synchronized it previously and it was too late for that account.
If you are in iOS, then just try to connect it to game center, and do same thing - open the game in new device without deleting the old one/game data.
You know that you have to be careful because iOS has a way of connecting all devices together and the data saved in previous device might not be the game data you wanted/prefer BUT it is better than starting from zero.
Now, if you are in Android but the google account WOULD NOT read the data sync that means that Google itself might be experiencing transition phases (which they do - I think their IT Administration is NOT consistent) OR your Google has already sync another DC game to the same Google account.
Therefore, you just need to create a NEW Google Account and sync Dragon City to that NEW Google Account and TEST it by opening in that new phone (don't delete the data from old phone).
FACEBOOK will never help us get the data back, because FB was only interested in offering their server services for Game Industry to get all the analytics from people (1 of the benefits)
You/Me also cannot ask the Social Point because that is the very reason they use FB - to reduce the load on their systems (among other benefits).
Coming back from your game, you can actually try to ask SP if you can save the data (which is NOT allowed based on protocols) to be save in a drive (like USB) and transfer to new device - which is going to be cumbersome and will take you forever for resolution.
In short - i think we are both $%&' (f-word).
PS: I tried to find another game that is interesting as DC but does not need FB, it is still ZERO for me.

I would be happy though if there was a simple way to bind DC in my Google account..My mobile is still good enough to play the game,but for how long?
I think SP should give this matter more attention because it troubles many people that want to have flexibility in DC account. (For example a mobile phone upgrade) -

Post count: 3Reputation: 0Joined:This really is a big problem, I'm more of a PC Player but recently got into DC and had no idea about the limitations when connecting to FB, which I don't use at all and hate the idea of adding random people just to play a game that NO other game I know of or PC type of online game asks for.
As it was impossible to connect to Google Play and kept telling me there is an internet problem.I got my girlfriend into this game as well but funny enough she has enough friends still on FB to expand while I'm stuck with the basic 1 Island and 1 Node on the 2nd Island.
This needs to be fixed asap.
Also If anyone mentions it, I did try to make a fake FB account but sadly FB would not allow it like they used to years ago.
