Wheezy

Wheezy: What the hell is this s--t? Mostly American-styled buildings, most of them Maxis, thrown onto a map, and I expect some randomly scattered palm trees and crappy psuedo-Tibetan writing I downloaded off of a public domain fonts site to convince people this is "Southeast Asian?" Seriously, that picture is about as authentic as a microwaved cup of ramen. I should be ashamed of myself. (That felt good.) masochist: Are you trying to recreate Gotham? Jesus, man, turn some damn lights on! And what's up with the randomly scattered tall buildings with no consideration for parking, plazas, or aesthetics. Just like the 58 billion other ubergeneric, poorly thrown-together CJs on here. -5/-10 wwetom1, that picture is too pathetic for me to even comment on. Go hide in a corner somewhere and don't even bother us with that lazy crap. 0/0. Loser. BlondeTwiggy: Wow. Just wow. When I got my first copy of SimCity 2000 at the age of 6, I could have built a better city than that. Were you drunk when you threw that together? And what were you thinking when you placed that airport?! If anyone, for some unfathomable reason, decided to visit that crap-heap of a "city," at least they'd be mercifully killed in a plane crash before they had to set foot in that garbage-filled hellhole. -Infinity/-10.

Let me post my pics first. I'm on a timed computer, so I'll have to post my criticisms on my next login. This is from a southeast Asian themed CJ I'm working on.

Could you be a little more specific? i.e.: What kind of city are you building? farm town, tourist trap, port city, metropolis? What part of the world is it located in, etc.?

Does anyone think we might be going a little too far? I mean, this thing is almost as tall as 3 of the World Trade Center towers stacked on top of each other. Maybe I've watched too many disaster movies, but I'm uneasy about this. PS: The Noida Tower is hideous. I hope someone on their design team has the aesthetic sense to object to that design.

These are from a southeast Asian CJ (Think Kuala Lumpur) that I'm working on. I very recently started this project, so I only have a few usable images at this point. Housing projects and low rent apartments on the eastern ouskirts of the capital city. I'll have a few more once I edit and upload them.

It's great to know I'm not the only Tampanian (Tampa-ite? Tampese?) here. Although a lot of the stuff you're BATing here, I've never actually seen. But that's probably because I'm stuck up here in "sterilewood" and don't get to see much of the actual city outside of downtown and Ybor. But, amazing job on the models so far. Are you ever going to make the Cuban Club? (I'd suggest the Centro Ybor complex and movie theater too, but that would drive anyone insane.)

Are you playing on hard mode? Because if all you want is a big city, that'll really limit you. Or maybe you need to place some kind of reward to get rid of a demand cap. Or you could just download the super demand mod.

I'm not gonna lie. It looks good. And even if they do end up putting stuff like gingerbread houses and Willy Wonka factories in the final game, I highly doubt anyone's going to stick a gun to your head and force you to use them. Edited - Content --beebs

Um... I really like the idea of having a "feel" to your city. It'll be interesting, if they manage to do it right.

(No offense, but are you using an internet-based translator when you write?)

I think (or maybe it's just hope) this game is going to be like what Legends and NT were to the Megaman series. A quick skip off into another direction, then back to the original plot. Those "candyland" and 50s-style "futurism" gimmicks might get dropped after the people behind this game realize how STUPID those ideas are. The only real problem I have here is the cartoony graphics and lack of zoning and power. (I won't really miss the water system. I was never really that overjoyed about having to lay miles of pipes) That (The cartooniness) was what made SimTown blow. (Along with mind-murdering simplicity and repetition.)
