Futile Rant

After reading a few threads on here I realized that many of the Simcity community seems to have become sadly contempt with losing a hard built city from time to time. I figured these problems would die down after EA fixed their server issues but clearly this is going to be a continuing problem. Our cities are disappearing into thin air and with them several hours of our lives. Working hard on a city meanings nothing to this game when it could all just bug up and leave you looking at a blank field and 50k to build a new one. In short THIS GAME IS NOT PLAYBLE and thou EA continues to scurry around to solve these problems I doubt they really care. The Preorder hype was already enough for EA to make turn a profit on the game. The fact that they forced us to rely on their servers for our game to run proves that EA doesn’t care about its gamers, its fans, or its customers, they just care about turning a profit.

 

Until this game is modded to play 100% offline with saves, it is not a game worth playing. I keep hearing that an offline mod isn’t possible. I sincerely hope that is not true.
