    Overall, this game has been spectacular, the depth of the city simulator is a pleasure to wrap my brain around. Hope you enjoy!

    You have a press pass, right? If so thank you for posting this.

    Ocram's Razor: Though "more things shouldn't be used than are necessary," they're just too fun to pass up! Expect many verbose arguments from me. I will try to write abstracts before or short summaries after from now on.

    Words to live by:
    "Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit. But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. For to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, and to another the word of knowledge according to the same Spirit; to another faith by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit... But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually..." 1 Corinthians 4-11
    "Do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." Matthew 6:34
    "Do not judge so that you will not be judged. For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you." Matthew 7:1-3

    tastyjams: i noticed when you tried to place upgrade modules on your waste disposal facility that the upgrade modules were oriented to the grid even though the lot you were trying to upgrade was non-orthogonal. Was there any way to rotate upgrade modules? Because if there's not it's a damning limitation on this game.

    I also obtained a beta key, and I have to admit that despite the fact that maps are ridiculously small and region system is a joke (I could confirm those two points by trying the beta), it left me a really good impression. It's surprisingly (for someone like me who only had negative things to say before trying it) enjoyable to play and while, still far from being "a perfect sc4 successor", it was still a good surprise since I was expecting much worse. For the first time since it's announcement, i'm now impatient to receive my preordered copy.
