Free DLCs...how to get them

I've had SimCity since June 2014, and some time ago I bought the complete edition. Surfing the internet, I saw three free DLCs I haven't:

- the Launch Arcology;

- the Progressive Insurance;

- the Plumbob Park.

Is it possible to get the Launch Arcology and the Progressive Office receiving them from someone and putting them in SimcityData folder? And what about the Plumbob Park, a DLC included in the complete edition, but impossible to find in the game?

Hi,

 

- The Launch Arcology was given to those who bought COT in pre-order via Origin only.

- The progressive Insurance building was free for some months only on Origin (from memory, it was from October 2013 to March 2014). No reason why they removed it, it was free.

- The plumbob park was given to those who pre-order the game before launch in 2013. As you said, it is now part of the standard and complete edition. They should at least give it to everybody, mostly those who bought the game after launch but before they modify the standard edition package.

 

You also have the Red Cross which was available for 1 year only in some countries only. The offer finished in September 2014. Should be available for free now that the offer is over as they did with the Crest ones.

 

You also have 5 specific countries DLC available for free. You have to log on Origin as if you were in theses countries (France (2 of them), Poland, Sweden and Germany). Use a proxy to foul Origin to get them.

 

Very soon it will be the 2nd birthday of SimCity. As a gift, Maxis should release all the DLC to everybody for free. Like this, we will be finally able to claim abandon cities. Don't think they do lot of money out of them now and it only frustrate the players.

 

For your information, the complete game including COT and all the DLCs are already on your computer. You need the codes to activate them and you have to buy them to get them (even if it's free). Codes are stick to your Origin account.

 

Pinky!

    Actually it also bugs out.  I had a private mp city I abandoned and tried to reclaim a few days layer, only to get the message that I do not own the DLC to claim the city.

     

    I reported it to the devs and they couldn't get it to recover for me.  

     

    It will help in most cases though.  although I'm not sure they'll give away anything.
