Hi. This is what you guys for feeding ea.
What is the current state of the game?

Somewhat improved state. 3 more servers have been introduced, and I've experienced only intermittent server disconnections. Contrary to popular belief, unless the server is detected to have gone down, if you are disconnected you are able to play while your client attempts to reconnect. I DC'd about 2 hours ago and played for over an hour without an internet connection before I reconnected. Login problems are far and few between for me, though I can't speak for anyone else.

I was expecting a disaster, Downloaded patched and I'm in first try.

Substantiates my decrease in login problems.

EDIT:

I've started another region in EU West 1. If you are able to get on, add ComatoseBL and I'll invite you.

GUIDELINES FOR SKIPPING TUTORIAL:

The tutorial in almost every server is broken or does not load. To receive social options, performing the tutorial is required. I've found a temporary fix for getting past the tutorial.

- Start tutorial.
- Allow it to load. If it does not load, proceed to step 4.
- Once the city has loaded, zoom in and out, look around and exit to the main menu.
- Exit SimCity and restart.
- Start tutorial again and repeat step 3.

You should be able to proceed as normally.

Amazon has stopped selling the game. This is near satirical that they put in all this stuff to prevent pirates, but the only people that can play right now are probably pirates

which why DRM is a bad idea. Hurts non pirates and pirates just find ways to get past drm.

I don't know what to loving do.


The cities are too small to meet demand, and roads are too stuff to handle the highest density buildings.

ship your sims off to another region
kill off your population with a zombie apocalypse
create another city near it and build it mostly residential and some commercial, therefore they can live in another city and go to your main city for jobs and all that.
Or can you not own 2 cities at once?

This the Company that was voted worst company in America we are talking about.

You can but it's such a stuffty way of doing it because some of the residents don't want to make the commute, so you end up having two cities in the same above stated predicament.

The whole city specialization stuff is a bunch of bs, you basically have to be in trade otherwise what you produce can't be sold, and the mining/oil rigging only makes profit if you use the oil/metal to make goods, so you end up specializing in like three things and it takes up like 50% of the city area space.


Aka, cities need to loving be bigger

You forgot about the part where they basically told everyone to forget themselves

Why wouldn't EA just give you a code instead of making it constantly online? that means even if you have the CD you won't be able to play it when the game is old.. thats so lame

Because EA is run by people who don't play video games, just swim in the cash.

Idk what is wrong with you guys, this game has little to no server issues. There are hiccups yes but its compleatly playable. Servers are fine, game is fine, its totaly playable.

The only issue here is god dam AI and nobody inviting me to play already. Just invite me to Rising Sun Vally already u forgets.
