Tuesday

"The Cities XL website is unavailable until Thursday 25th February due to a heavy maintenance operation. We apologize for the inconvenience" roughly translates as "OH GOD! We forgot we promised to upload some pictures from that contest we came up with at the arse-end of last year but we don't have a server to store them and we've been banned from Imageshack!". Just kidding. It's probably a new bus and a park.

Wonder how long it'll take before you're verbally abused due to the lack of railways and buses in the Single Player. Providing you're all set up before March, that is.

The more personalised, the better in my opinion. Custom buildings are also important but I imagine implementing naming areas/streets would be much easier to code in.

Fingers crossed it's Custom Content or at least a comprehensive railway system for single player. Probably just a Ski GEM though. The news is here, so this thread is a bit unecessary. Topic closed, please post in this thread, thanks. Liv CXL Forums Moderator

Gutting to go onto the official website to see "Happy New Year!" still sat there as their last update. Optimistically, you can imagine they've been working on something huge. Pessemistically, well, we've been there before.

I'm very concerned about this as well, since I've now bought it. I scoffed at "They're going bust" comments but it's a bit worrying that there's been not so much as an update from even Matthew_MC on here.

Sorry to gatecrash the thread, folks but what are these Blueprints? Are you creating your own buildings?

Anyone know what MC are currently working on, update wise? Can't find much.

Echo all of things poshbakerloo suggested. Would love to see all that in the game.

Most of the other ideas I've had have been mentioned already are escaping me at the moment. Would it be possible to sell advertising space in the game? Would probably work more easily in the online game but I'm thinking along the lines of companies renting out billboards or even better, large LED screens like in Times Square or London's Piccadilly Circus? Would brighten up cities and earn some extra cash for MC in the meantime. Everyone's a winner! Actually, just thought of another! When building stadia, it would be good to personalise the sports teams who play there and have them pitted against other sports teams from neighbouring cities. Perhaps in a GEM? Would add realism and an added bite to city rivalry online.
