Their last album went 4x plat in the US, and barely scanned silver in Eurpoe despite insane promo. 
I wish it were possible to sell 15m WW like in real life, but it seems damn near impossible.  |
Yeah, that part is so weird. In the current game I'm playing my best selling album sold about 5 million copies and 4 million of those were in the US, and it's still the best selling album of all time.
And I was purposefully trying to make one of his singles flop so I could make him have a comeback era, so I made 0 physical copies available and only did average promo and didn't book any media, and instead of flopping it sold 22 million copies in the US and became the best selling single of all time
Some of these mechanics are so bad, I hope they get fixed in the new game
. I just make sure to completely fill the first few weeks of release with promo, and do mostly foreign promo since the song doesn't peak for a few weeks in Canada and a few months in the US
