Bollocks to it I am creating the region now, I have waited long enough for this day Ill just call the region Titan Gorge 1 (unless there are any suggestions within the next 3 minutes while I get myself some cheerios).

Make yourself a solo region or make a small VPN-GAF region

 

[Metalmurphy]

downloading via FLYVPN.
chose a chinese IP.
30min wait time.
leggo!

What was your method of purchase? Origin pre-order?

Bollocks to it I am creating the region now, I have waited long enough for this day Ill just call the region Titan Gorge 1 (unless there are any suggestions within the next 3 minutes while I get myself some cheerios).

Someone suggested Tartarus and had some pretty solid reasoning behind it.

 

[Herpes Reasons]

im in this.
im going in.

 

[Dead Prince]

Is this normal for Origin titles?

idk. this is my first time actually buying a new game from origin. lol.

 

[Smiley90]

im in this.
im going in.

Just the tip?

 

[The Albatross]

Only care about when the Mac version drops. "spring" how you are a terribly vixen!

 

[Burgess_101]

Ill do it like this:

ill create the region as we normally would, ill invite everyone in our region when they get the game. So we can play normally and discuss options on Wednesday and see if we want to start again. That sounds like a good idea in my head

Also ill go with Tartarus, I remember there was something behind the meaning of it

Looking at the Mac system requirements, and I see this:

NVIDIA 9400M/ Intel HD3000

and I have this:

ATI Radeon HD 4850 512 MB

I have no idea about any of this stuff anymore. My computer is this. Would it run?

Processor Name: Intel Core i5
Processor Speed: 2.66 GHz
Number of Processors: 1

played 5-6 hours straight... if you don't plan wisely you'll get in trouble later on even if everything is looking decent in the course.

Nonetheless : excellent game so far. I can't think of anything really flawed.(Always-On, DLC stuff not regarded)

Where is everyone watching this giantbomb quick look?

How are you playing right now?

It was live.

 

[SRTtoZ]

Who is creating Neogafs Discovery Delta 3?

 

[misterhektik]

Just got home. Has anyone created Viridian Woods #1 yet? Or will it be created around 12am pst?

 

[timetokill]

Do we have a name for Discovery Delta 1 yet?

I am getting really close to just fucking buying the online version at midnight so I can play XD

I hate you, another 2 days of waiting.

Let me guess: traffic nightmare? Happened in my poorly-planned beta play

precum and all that jazz.
or is it jizz?
nevertherless, its glorious!

http://www.twitch.tv/giantbomb/b/373876663 it's archived now.

 

[Pandemic]

Is it even possible to have no traffic congestion in a city? Every city I've seen there's always traffic congestion.

 

[Phreaker]

I hope I'll be able to play SimCity (5) in 10 years, like I just did SimCity 4 this weekend. Somehow though, with this always online stuff I tend to doubt it.

 

[B-Dex]

For the ladnmarks that change the architecture does it change the entire city or just the area directly around the landmark?

 

[Smiley90]

Also, I'd say that unless multiple people from Viridian Woods 1 are non-NA, fixed and everyone else should be good to go tonight yes? No point in waiting if everyone's around anyway. So if you're in Viridian Woods 1 and not playing tomorrow, speak now or stay forever quiet!

 

[Burgess_101]

Not wanting to knock MetalMurphy's work but it appears he got some of the cities in the wrong places. At least my Settlers Rest was on the other side of the river.

At what population count?

 

[georgc]

Yes! Downloading now. Smiley who's starting our region?

 

[SRTtoZ]

Holy shit, the hype wheel is starting to roll rather quickly...

My 7970m is ready to murder this game ( I hope )

I'd be a bit surprised if they didn't support any ATI cards for the Mac. You seem to have one that is at least a step up from an nVidia 9400m.

 

[ekim]

Basically everything.

 

[Smiley90]

Fixed is, with the origin pre-order. But I suppose if you're VPN'ing you can? I don't care, just whoever creates needs to know what's up and needs to be in for the long haul

 

[drizzle]

People can add me on Origin if they so desire, I have a 16 people private map running with a very stupid name.

I'm RainOne on Origin.

Me, I'm playing on the 7th (hopefully). I don't mind if regions start now though, was just a suggestion.

At what population count?

Uh, 40 thousand I think? Possibly more?

I'm not in NA so I might be a bit behind you guys (I'll probably be at work when the game unlocks), I will be playing ASAP though. I'll most likely use VPN for activation so I should only be hours behind.

I was following someone elses map -.-


Are the positions right at least?

According to the registration you're not in Viridian Woods 1 though?

 

[Rentahamster]

Minimal traffic totally possible with 40k

 

[goldsoundz]

Going to have to leave this thread until UPS delivers my copy tomorrow. Probably another 24 hours of waiting.

So your Settlers Rest was my Frontier Fields?

 

[Pandemic]

My apologies, I've gotten myself confused with the regions. x.x

If you mean aesthetically then you may be referring to the landmarks available in the digital deluxe version which have a direct impact on the look and feel of the city -- see:

[Zzoram]

Is this game Origin only?

 

[Burgess_101]

So your Settlers Rest was my Frontier Fields?

I think so yeah. I chose the one named Settlers Rest still. The region has been started and this is what I have to work with! I love the bridge.

 

[Phreaker]

How's this for planning?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTJQTc-TqpU

Okay, that's a little bit nuts. 3+ man years to plan out your "max out" city? Cool though!!

 

[LumpOfCole]

Is this game Origin only?

Yes, though it's a bit of a mystery why this is; it has its own launcher as well, so essentially Origin is required to launch the launcher which is required to update and launch SimCity.

 

[Smiley90]

That tiny bit of land in the corner NEEDS to be the location of the mayor's mansion :lol

Also drizzler (?), you promised me a picture of that upgraded serpentine road!

 

[Smokey]

im going in.

Maybe name your city LOLakers. I'd move in.

Yes I know but is it actually the entire city? That is what I thought it was and am hoping for. I want my German-looking forest, oil-megopolis dammnit!

 

[Snuggles]

Does Amazon not charge debit/credit cards until CD-keys are out? Or would they have already charged or put a hold on my funds at this point? Just curious.

Nevermind, looked it up.
