SimCity |OT| It's not the simulation or city that matter, it's <parameter: string>
- Thread starter Cjdamon042
- Start date
At the end amazon just apply the -15$ discount manually to my new pre-order... (5$ for the mistake and 10$ to complete the 15$ discount) :-/
I want to join the city list, but I don't think I will be playing multi-player until i feel like I've solo'd enough and Im guessing it'll be full by then
I'm pretty bad at SimCity, but im just gonna play to enjoy the MP. Also, by playing with others im hoping to improve my own game
Also, I send everyone a friendsrequest on origin for those of u who are on Titan Gorge(2). Except for thelegendary as he's still missing an origin name.
Thx for adding me Murphy
PS:
Is it possible to make groups on the Origin friendslist? That way I know who are from GAF.
I'd like to be put in one as well.
Add me as aswell if possible.
Not entire but this is the closest I have found:
City borders look pretty awkward with tall buildings ending just like that.
Those two screenshots have mostly wealth two density one/two there. Not much of the density three.
Tons of slowdown on the LABM stream. Looks like the game might need a restart or something.
Love how they just completely ignore it too.
!!!!!
Maybe that's because I've never actually signed into Origin before? Just registered through the website. I'll try to install it tonight.
To all DD3 dwellers: prepare to be polluted!

Alright, I just added everyone from Discovery Delta 2, that has an origin account listed, to my friends list.

It was quite frustrating. This game is as intuitive as a simulation game is ever going to get, yet even after hours of playing it he can't figure out stuff I figured out in 5 minutes. And I'm not even a professional gamer who was chosen by the publisher to showcase the strengths of the game in a prerelease demo intended to raise awareness and hype.

Urrhhhgh.
I'm definitely giving this a miss for the time being. It'll be interesting to read all of your thoughts after a week or so of playing.

Those are 2 of the worst screens ive seen of the game. Watch some of the 720p or 1080p Beta vids to get a feel of the game.
Do it! (Just curios, can I place that elevated streets everywhere or only at hills/on water?)

I have been, and it feels too small and cramped for my liking.

Does this game tsunamis. I have waterfront property lol
Only on hills and water. But there are definitely some great maps to do this on.

I'm pretty sure it is just general Amazon.com credit that you can use on anything.
I need a little more clarification on this as well. How exactly is this going to work on getting into our plots once the game goes live?
Someone will create the region and invite you. You accept the invite and select your plot.
Oh, easy enough. For some reason I was thinking it was going to be a bigger process than that. Thanks for the info.

Just make sure people know your Origin ID and add you.

I don't know if more regions are going to open or not, but I fully expect that there will be lots of city spots opening over the next week or so. Should almost start a wait list...
Small towns look fine but the big cities look awful. It's way too small. :\

I can't decide if I want to get this. I love games like Sim City but those screenshots look ridiculous, and it gives the impression that this game will be a lot more restrictive than I'd like... I do think the idea of having regions is cool though, you guys are probably going to have a blast playing together, so that's why I'm still undecided, even if the game itself could be better.

They way they've been talking about the technical reasons behind the small areas (for example, there isn't enough memory for larger towns because the game is 32-bit instead of 64-bit), it sounds like it's going to be a much bigger deal than just a little expansion pack. At this point I'd expect that next year we'll get a full-priced "SimCity 2: Megalopolis" or some such that has higher minimum system specs but supports larger cities.

Perhaps a silly question but in what ways do we interact with other players in the region?

Yea, there is no way 100+ people will be there day 1 ready to play. Some of those spots were taken from people who dont even post on Gaf lol.

I will be there but I will be jumping between this and tomb raider. My gf is a big TR freak so I will play that game when she is home to watch and then onto simcity when goes to work.

You can trade, you can help out with resources if they need them, you can visit their city at any time etc.

But can I dump toxic waste into the river and have it travel downstream to create a race of mutants into a neighboring city?
