I've taken a break due to some of the issues 2.0 caused.

I will start playing again when I download the Mac version this June.

I'm still playing but getting bored of it. I want "God Mode" back. It just made the game so much better. In my opinion, Creating your own landscape is half the fun of creating your own city.

I've never really had a problem with the game from the start. Except for the one time my city didn't save. I'm never gonna stop playing Simcity.

Same.  I've invested quite a bit of time into some of my cities and without the benefit of saves I can't risk the damage.  Well, its not "risk" but it would be an unnecessary hassle to implement the changes to my cities necessary to compensate for the issues following 2.0.  For me its been the Beijing like smog cloud covering my cities along with the abandonment/bulldoze click fest.  It's a real bummer because I was working around most of the release issues and having fun but I've no defense against the pollution so I can't really play even if I wanted to.  Really bummed.

So, So true, I'm bored as hell and I'm beginning to play a lot less. I need my god mode, my highways, my elevated rail, I would like to have very big maps, I would love to drive a fire truck or the bus to do something in this retarded SimCity.

I have too much disease in my city and nothing I do is lessening it without bankrupting my city.

I also have an issue with fires being immune to water.

Lastly I have an issue that keeps booting me back to the start screen every 30 or so minutes.

It's frustrating! I want too keep playing but this pollution problem is ruining the game for me at the moment! Iv worked around other mistakes but i built a brand new city and by the time I had 4k population the map was flooded with random

spawning pollution! My industry was downwind and i had a wind power plant!

However once they sort this problem I will b getting straight back into it! Plenty of potential in the game, if you choose to see past certain limitations! Just my opinion!

I play everyday. I have logged 329 hours.I start a new city each day sometimes several a day. I have been slowly refining and tweaking my grid, services, and specialize to achieve stable, profitable, and happy cities. I can now consistently get a city to 500k population (600k+ if I push hard), 80-82% approval, and monthly profit in excess of 1 million (mining/smelting specialization). Also have all my working sims with jobs and places to shop.

I stopped when 2.0 came out. I actually haven't played even though I downloaded the update. After reading the issues with this update I've just had enough. I shouldn't have to trick mechanics into doing what they should be doing. Kind of defeats the purpose. I was having problems with pollution in non industrial low pop. Cities before the update and now from what I gather its worse for some people. Still think this game could be great if the revs would get their heads out of their butts and actually test something before they dump useless updates on us.

I do still play this game. But I am getting out of ideas at the moment. There are just to less interesting places/maps that are good enough for me. Need god mode to. And bigger maps

I still play it but the air pollution bug is a killer. Other than that and the fact rain doesn't fill the water table and traffic issues, I'm fine with the game. I don't really care about the other issues since I seem to be shielded from them.

I did the tutorial then went to the server and thought "This game is crap."

I'm playing it when I can, I've got a lot of work in collage to do, I did stop playing it to wait for the 2.0 patch, but that was a let down

Sorry to be a negative nelly

No plans to buy it, the game looks disappointing and looks uninspiring, and I still haven't seen one picture that makes me won't to play it for me it misses all the key point of a city building game, i think i will contiue to cities XL, at lest I can make the city in that game no matter how buggy it gets

Will be taking a break until the pollution bug is fixed, which to me is by far the biggest game breaker bug of them all.

 

Was doing 'fine' running 1.8 - built my cities patiently bit by bit up to 360K with some real world issues of traffic and crime (all of which were results of poor design), used some of the in-game workarounds and generally had a good time. Will keep the game and allow Maxis to improve it further - was never emotional about the whole thing, had other things to do while waiting for things to get fixed.

The "abandonment clickfest" is the only thing that is getting to me really. I'm still playing though just because I paid $60 and want to get my time on the game. It has a long way to go before it is right.
