I'm sort of fed up of being unable to sort games with free slots as priority. Sort of sick of having to run 5 cities at once just to get all the benefits. Map size is tiny as well, however, really enjoying it at same time. Very enjoyable game to play. Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
Well been playing with a friend and found out how absurdly lucrative a recycling plant can be. That coupled with my mining is crazy despite the fact im loosing money on taxes im racking it in through industry. If anyone fancies adding me im Step831 floating around a couple of servers at the moment
If you don't like the idea of supporting the evil empire (EA), check this out: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1584821767/civitas-plan-develop-and-manage-the-city-of-your-d
You sure do have a knack for hyperbole my good sir. I think you will find there are literally hundreds if not thousands of games out there more deserving of your hard earned pennies if you are able to look beyond the marketing machines of the big publishers.
That was just exaggeration for comic effect. In real life, people laugh, on the internet, I get criticised for it. And I was only even saying it to be diplomatic anyway, to all the people here who buy games like this and support EA... I am one of the few people here who doesn't own a single EA game. While everyone else was fawning all over BF3, I was playing Arma2 instead, and now Arma3 Alpha. Instead of Dead Space 3, I did a run through System Shock 1 and 2. Instead of SimCity I have Civ4, Galciv, Tropico, and more recently, Elemental: Fallen Enchantress. When everyone was going ape about C&C4, I was busy playing Forged Alliance. Instead of Burnout I play Flatout and a game nobody has ever heard of called Crash Time. Instead of Dragon Age, I played through some NWN modules and Temple of Elemental Evil. And if you actually knew anything about me you'd notice I make various posts on here about games nobody has ever heard of and most of the time they get no replies.

I have noticed that recently fire trucks are responding to the same fire even when there are a few fires. This is after driving around the block several times before actually stopping and doing anything. Don't know if this is a bug introduced after 1.3 or 1.4 but it certainly wasn't the case before. I spoke to EA and they think the resource sharing may have been accidently disabled on some servers...... I also notice that there does appear to be a cracked version of simcity out there which is working fine entirely offline. Not that I agree with piracy but it does irk me that paying customers are the ones suffering.
Did you get my friend request? Cus I was on the list for the region but don't seem to have you added. Also EU West 1 always seems to be full :/
I think people have heard of those games, but they either were released years go, aren't even out yet, or aren't really that interesting, hence the lack of replies. I don't think avoiding buying anything made by EA is anything boast about. Sure, its up to you where you spend your money, but missing out on BF3 something you should be genuinely sad about, rather than proud of, which is the way you seem to pitch it. (oh and no one in the history of mankind went 'ape' about C&C4)
Could we get this argument taken out of the thread? Have an argument somewhere else. I started a new game on the Antarctica server last night because eu was down. If you'd like an invite let me know and I'll send it out when I'm home. I have myself and sharpethunder on there so far. And I hit 100000 while I was playing till 3. Also. What's the best way to get screen grabs? Do you hate to go windowed?
Cheers dude. I was trying to have a look for a key bindings, but I was pretty tired. Also, I had the Lizard attack last night, bad times! He went straight through my town to get to my dump, destroying my full spec clinic in the process. But then it crashed my game, corrupted it, and I had to roll back to before the attack.
That lizard is a pain in the arse, I was playing yesterday and it took out my grade school, University, both my fully upgraded ore mines and a trade depot. needless to say I did not recover from that. Feel free to add me people, I'm Mr_MonkeyChunks
It's saying I have so many friends playing sim city but not showing me within sim city you have it to invite you. Weird
Good to hear the servers have improved since launch, hopefully when I get going it'll be even smoother. I'll probably be grabbing my copy when I get paid on the 15th, funds permitting. Those are some gorgeous shots of the city.
One thing I would say is that you're offered it make sure you get the mansion and do its upgrades as they come, its like adding a park to your whole town per perk. So far I have been taking the following upgrades on the town hall to create a tourist area: utilities (lowers polution), safety (big firestations keeps people happy) and then transport to bring in the tourists. With this I have built some tourist venues, and I'm saving towards a expo center. I also want to get an airport, but I really need some more funds first.
