yeah, I guess I have to just keep upgrading and bulldozing what I have, cuz got damn my city is fucking TINY
citizens keep whining “we need more residental” that’s great, where should I put it? On the road, in the water, or in the sky, cuz those are my options.
and yeah, I have yet to have one server issue yet lmfao
Sure you can play with us. And the trade depots work if you have enough resources saved in storage. You go into edit and you can import and export your extra goods for money. Once you have enough depots and resources, you can get paid.
Really hope they plan on expanding the maps cause this little shit ain’t cuttin’ in. There’s so much space around the border of my town that can be utilized to expand. I hate when the Sims complain about what they need. Whiny bitches.

Game has been playable this weekend. Hope they fix fire engines later. Instead of spreading out and fighting multiple fires, they swarm one fire like an angry bee’s nest lol. There is also still some lag with syncing regional cities which can be profoundly annoying
Watch larger maps be pricey DLC. It’s my biggest gripe. What are the largest maps, or are they all the same? I am guessing ur supposed to just rely on other cities in your region for key services but that seems lame 
@Neesa gimme ur details sometime soon and I will hop in (no innuendo intended) tomorrow. I will have to look at my ore again, I know my refinery was full I have ton of trucks, just not selling anything.

He also stated they will patch in larger cities later though. Not hard to add a city size slider to the options and a warning that it won’t work on shitty pc’s. Besides, fuck those PC’s.

well then…went to take a shower, and decided to let my sim go so I could rack up cash. Come back and my city is getting pelted by meteors and I unlocked earthquake and big lizard disasters…which I promptly released.
So yeah, farewell Shadowloo, you were a fun city 
maybe I will make this next:

ps - not being able to terraform sucks. I miss adding my own water, or land, or mountains.
Wow, haha. They work for cheap, imagine the possibilities!
ah you have to have real patience with your expansion in this game and focus on density. Don’t over zone industry/commercial or you’ll struggle with unemployment. Can’t seem to fill jobs even though i’m running 4 cities, one with a population of 60k, another with 60k, and another with about 40k with rail/bus/ferry connections. HUGE amounts of unemployment. Density is harder to achieve and much slower now that germs are taking over, i need my taxes at around 10%. One of the newer cities I setup is mostly residential has taxes down to 7, and density is skyrocketing with only two parks
Bought it day one, and when it didn’t work I just played one of the other bazillion video games that exist. Sim nerds getting too butthurt over this not working.
My one complaint is the land size is way too small but at least when you claim other land the gov’t upgrades carry over. I fucked up and built a million dollar great works before having the resources and now I’m broke.

I’d get butt hurt too if I payed 60 dollars to play SP and couldn’t play when I want.
I found that you REALLY don’t need a lot of commercial zoning in this game. If I had to do a ratio, I’d say it seems around 3:2:1 for R:I:C. I’d even say maybe even 4:2:1
My problem is with sewage and water. I had people whining about water all game, and I would plop down like 5 more water towers, and they still whined like bitches.
I will have to try out doing an entire region at some point, I didn’t realize that upgrades carry over to the other cities you start.
At least we know bigger cities are coming, but how soon?
Water/Sewage/power were my biggest issues, so I claimed new land after I had the gov’t upgrade, transferred some cash, and plopped the big daddy’s down then just pruchase the resources from my primary land. Water will eventually deminish so you gotta keep moving around.
I dont think bigger cities are coming, I read something about the cities are tuned like that because of SC’s PC spec recommendations… sounded stupid but would make sense if they meant server side resources since larger cities would require more server processing. Another reason online only blows donkey D because you can technically only play 1 area at a time.
if we start an SRK region, we have to make sure a dirty industry city with a dirty power plant, is the farthest away in the region with the wind blowing away from all other city tiles. That way, air pollution doesn’t spread to other potential cities thus creating a germ problem…which is very hard to counter, I have the hospital and sending wellness vans but I’d need to expand education too and that is too expensive in early stages of setting up a region
Disregarding all this drama over chinese spammers this, EA ripping off dummies like SoVi3t that, what we should really focus on is the fact that you have to be the saddest excuse for a human to actually want to play this gay ass game. I have more respect for people that build shit out of legos. At least their burning calories.
alright, well the North American West 1 and 2 servers are back and updated. I’m on 2 and i’ll open up a new region. There are 16 city tiles on the largest regions. I chose the forest one for its flat surfaces. Titan gorge kinda stinks because one city tile is worthless without terraforming (big ass mountain, just a headache and teased with rich ore deposits).
HOw many guys do we have so we can divide the region evenly? If 4 players, each can control a section of the region. If 8, 2 cities each with 2 people on each section.
and if there aren’t enough srkers, bah just bring in other chaps from other boards or what have you.
I scouted the map and picked myself a spot for dirty industry lol
Thinking burns calories. So us playing SimCity for an hour burns more calories than you do in a day.
Yea its almost like your forced into multiplayer at times. Road guides on YouTube only help so much.
lol so what you are saying is that your head is as fat as your gut?
Angel is just mad cuz his Farmville farm died out
I will join with u guys and gals later, I just need to finish tidying up and preparing dinner. I got a server error trying to connect earlier though lol
