Ooops

when you're deleting a couple of large windmills on your giant windmill park to make room for the nuclear plant. make sure to be in the windmill park editing mode and don't answer yes when your whole park is lit up yellow.... takes a while for the nuclear to gear up :p

my mines and smelter don't make any money without power :p so much easier when you have neighbours to buy utilities from :)

Happened to me couple of times as well, trying to delete some extensions and ending up demolishing an entire freight terminal and windfarm plant.

Any of you installed the VU-Tower from the Heroes and Villains set? Is it worth it from tourism etc point of view, or will crime skyrocket in the city?

Been playing straight for 4 hours now, don't know what happened there but the game really sucks you in...

Welcome to the Club!

Cheers!

I'm now trying to cure my Starcraft II addiction with this game. It seems to be working coz I haven't logged on to battle.net since the release. However, I don't know how much longer I can hold on to it with HOTS being released in literally several hours!

Any idea what the free games will be?

If the choices are good, I'll buy SimCity (which is overpriced) since I'd be getting two games for the price of one.

Should have bought the game from the Indian store, before it was pulled off of it (due too many non-Indians buying the game from there). Would have saved 30 bucks and get a free game, too. Not that I'm saying the game (simcity 5) is bad, but 60 is a bit too much for it in current state. And no, no one knows which games are going to be given to the simcity owners yet. Hopefully, it will be something good.

At some point you have to start burning it.

I was burning and thought I just didn't have enough trucks so I deleted that one and created 3 new dumps all maxed out with garbage trucks but they all come back to the garage at 2:30 each day. Still red on pickup and can't figure it out. They haven't said anything about the dumps being at capacity.

My city was at 250,000 but has dropped to 230,000 now.

I think there might still be bugs with regional buildings (my trade markets occasionally just stopped and I wasn't entirely sure why) but in the meantime if you see a queue entering and leaving your city it might be good to stop volunteering as much to other cities (especially if you've only got one road coming in.)

I haven't used it yet. Maxisman I have put down in most of my cities because he helps with crime, hospitals and fires. I am worried about the VU tower crime. I might try him in my oil, and mining town. LEss population due to crime would mean less traffic and faster sell times for my delivery trucks.

    • At work we still have a couple of people that use a version of AutoCAD LT purchased in 1994. This predates Windows 95 and works fine on versions of Windows up to XP. Its long since run in an locked down isolated XP VM, accessible via RDP. I did install LibreCAD for them, however they said it was just too different to get to grips with. In all fairness one of them is now 75 and the other is almost 60.

    • Anyway to download these versions without being on the Experimental builds?
    • Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
