Wow I can't believe I forgot the server, yeah USE4. I've never played with other people but I'm pretty good at managing cities over 400k pop.

Still thinking about buying this but all the issues and my fanaticism for SC4 prevents me to spent the $40 D=

I bought it but I wouldn't recommend buying it. Maybe it's just not my type of game but I got pretty bored of it after 20 hours. I haven't touched it in a week now

This game is so terrible. HAHAHA. They should rename it to "Casual SimCity Online".

If you play with 0% tax, yes the game is broken, but as soon as you increase tax to a decent level the game becomes a lot more challenging. So it's not an issue for players that don't abuse the low tax happiness.

Everything will be fixed by the end of April. But since Sim City is a game where you always attempt to challenge yourself, and there is no "end goal" apart from your self-imposed challenges, these sorts of bugs don't ruin the game.

What.

That's like saying...



Ok, I'm stumped. I actually sat here for 5 whole minutes trying to think of a game where there was a completely abusable strategy that everyone agreed was good if you didn't do that, and I couldn't think of one. Not a single game. Like, I really can't think of any other game that is even considered decent that has a broken strategy.

No crime no fire? he's playing in sandbox mode and turned it off you can get the buildings like that and the pop but without crime fire etc even at 0% and no body else in the region that doesn't create super sims... You can get that raw population though.

edit: confirming it yeah you do get the population at 500k atm but the place is consistently on fire. Also you can't have power or water because then residence get put on sale if you don't give them anything they wont move out and put the building on sale.

So as a great work I am thinking Solar Farm. But the Space Center or International Airport seem nice too. With Arcology, and the visitor bug, All our cities Traffic will blow up in our face.

Doesn't quite work like that it's an obvious troll, even at 0% taxes you still get crime and fire he did it in sandbox mode and turned those things off, fire esp slows this down. I've been running a city for about 2 hours now outside of sandbox mode and stuck around 800k because of fire, the city is always on fire all the time.

Although oddly enough you have to not give them power or water because if you do they abandon the house much quicker and you don't get the population lol. It also has to be done essentially on a new region if there are other cities connected you get too much traffic off the visitor bug

I finally bought the game at amazon... Man those cities are really SMALL, like minuscule ....
overall the game is pretty much dumbed down from sc4, those are the cons
the pro is that it's awesome and relaxing game. If i dont think of sc but more of a farmville it's perfect

I think if you look at the region as a "city" and the cities as "boroughs" a la New York the game makes much more sense, though it would be great if these boroughs connected and were not necessarily square shaped as in the current iteration. This would allow two people to feel like they were working on the same city as well in a way that made sense, or it would allow players to work on their own private cities in a more satisfying way.

Agreed. You would want one "mayor" like Bloomberg, for example, and then five or 6 city planners for each borough.

But lets wait until they fix what's broken before adding more
