SimCity (2013)

Well you can actually skip the tutorial. Don't remember how right now but it was a matter of just going back or something I recall

I don't get the tutorial everytime but I do get the some stuff wasn't synced with the server when I exit.

That is generally because it doesn't sync to the server UNTIL you exit; worse, it won't know to sync to the server unless it's told to. (It's not unique to Simcity - MMOs are even worse in terms of this sort of thing. The reason why it's frustrating for old-school SC mayors is that the online connection/server-sync bits are new *for us*.)

I've only gotten the tutorial once - and I play on two different servers (NA East 3 and NA East 4).

No, the sale didn't, compared to what was offered free. That's what I'm saying.

Some titles were on sale that were NOT included in the Free Game offer (Crysis 3, for example - the NFS Hot Pursuit reboot wasn't offered free either); both are, in fact, STILL on sale (the sale runs through the end of March). I would have preferred to see additional title choices (not just the above two titles, but even NFS: The Run or Crysis 2 Maximum Edition), though I did pretty good IMHO with the MW reboot choice.

I have yet to have a single city I worked on save to a server...... even ones I played for 3+hrs.... starting to annoy the heck out of me...

For the future, in Update 2.0, we?ll be addressing the Recycling Center bug, fixing the fire engine clumping, improving the efficiency of Street Cars, and increasing the radius of river water. We?re also fixing the tuning on Casinos and are making them more profitable. These are just a handful of the substantial changes coming in Update 2.0.

Right on.

Start two cities in the same region, leave one as it is. Most likely it's the lost city bug and that will generally only be unrecoverable if you only have one city in the region. Or if you play in a region with someone else, you can open their regions from the friend list and play your city.

hahaha

I got Crysis 2 Maximum on sale! it was $10 as an upgrade to Crysis 3 :laugh:

I should have been more clear - I meant as a separate title (not just for those that already had Crysis 3).

So I bit the bullet and got the game. Anyone have a region they are playing on that I could join in?

Well, I'd invite you to join my game but the server (EU West 4) is permanently full...

^ This, but with streetcars >.>

Also, houses/buildings on roads (with traffic going through it).

Missing highway chunk with cars still driving over it.

My city produces more waste than it uses water, so the water table fills faster than I can pump it out.. Mildly moronic >.>

Just lots of glitches >.>

I've seen the buildings on highways glitch but the only really weird glitch I have is when trading flakes out. It's REALLY rare now but it does happen occasionally.

I finally got a solar farm at one of my regions, awesome =) If only it wasn't still radioactive that might mean something o.o

I didn't feel like wading through 63 pages of this topic. Has the game gotten any better since launch? It looks like Amazon has it on sale (both digital and physical) for $39.99 that would be within my price range if the game is in better shape than it was at launch.

It should be avoided on principle.

I bought it at $40. Played the s*** out of it for a week, then realized there wasn't anything more than that.

I've already moved on.

And I never had any problems getting it to work, I guess my playstyle led me to not having too much traffic or any problems like that. The game just felt shallow, and like a simulation that gets boring. Not a game.

I got hit by meteors 5 times in an hour -_-

ALL MY RAGE >.>

I don't mind disasters (although I'd prefer not to have them) but I really object to getting pummeled >.>

/shrugs

Starting to feel like Stockholm Syndrome >.>

Same disaster i had happening way too often. Tornado's happen too, but they were alright.

the thing that made me hate the meteors is the radiation they left behind. which never goes away.

I keep getting meteors hit the same spot in my city over and over.
