What game speed are you most comfortable with?

I enjoy Cheetah, but I wonder how a Turtle game left casually on throughout the day with an occasional hand in management might play. Of course, to be honest, I guess I tend to do both: on breaks I leave it on turtle, but during extended periods of concentration I jump between Cheetah and Llama speed.

 

How about you?

The speed at which I like to play has changed over the years I've played the SimCity series, when I was younger I would pretty much always play on cheetah speed. Mostly because my mindset back then was "make biggest city evar and fast!!1" But now, especially in SC13, I like to play on turtle speed and focus more on the finer details and actually making a functional city, I'm not so focused on just making the biggest city I can quick time, however if I need some quick money I'll put it on cheetah. There's was never a middle ground though, I've never played on llama speed for any extended amount of time.

I switch between all three rather gratuitously, depending on the current situation.

 

When planning layouts and such, where I need some time to think, I'll either pause it or put it on turtle. I usually pause when I first claim the city because there's no income, but if I have a few buildings and people are still coming in I'll just leave it on turtle so it can develop a bit more.

 

Typically once I have most things set up I'll leave it on llama. If there's really nothing going on or I need to generate money quicker, I'll bump it to cheetah temporarily. If there's ever something that needs attention, I'll put on the brakes and go to turtle so I can assess it carefully.

Cheetah only when I need money. Turtle speed im comfortable. I used to always play with Cheetah but i recently found out that with turtle, I can better manage the city as i can tend to every citizen needs before stuffs goes wrong. 

 

Playing Turtle speed now makes the city grows more organic.

I only turn from Cheetah...Or at least the fastest one I can get...To no speed at all. The other modes I just do not want to do...I like speed. And haven't always got as much time as I like to.

Though got sound problems when using this mode sadly.

Speed 2 (Llama) - got familiar with the "feel" after they disabled cheetah shortly after launch.
