I lurk this thread all the time, but have to come out and say that I absolutely LOVE this interchange.

Purchasing the game in New Zealand
mapboy replied to Sporefreak67's topic in SimCity (2013) General Discussion
Origin should change its currency to reflect your country. For me it currently shows the base game + expansion pack for NZ$54 (makes me wish I didn't already buy the game lol), You can tell what country origin is in my looking at the url - it should say www.origin.com/en-nz/ at the front -
Purchasing the game in New Zealand
mapboy replied to Sporefreak67's topic in SimCity (2013) General Discussion
The game's pretty expensive to be honest.... I bought it from NZgameshop.com at release for NZ$72. Just looked at that site and they don't seem to have physical copies of the base game for sale anymore. It's $48 for the base game code, $35 for the expansion code, and $43 for the expansion hard copy. http://www.nzgameshop.com/search/simcity/sort-relevance -
So very little upgrades for those without the expansion
-
Some promising stuff there. I always like new regions and the 3D zoning thing sound good. Rubbish and recycle 24 hours - even if its not that realistic, it's needed! Yay for more recycling capacity, it really was too small. And while I have avoided using great works like the plague (also because i never stay with one city long enough to start one), hopefully the syncing issues should finally be resolved with this.

New Expansion Pack in November - Cities of Tomorrow

The content is good, but it's not enough to get me to open my wallet... -

Meh, just taller buildings? They aren't getting my money for that... -
Does this game use a lot of bandwidth per hour
mapboy replied to 19citypug's topic in SimCity (2013) General Discussion
And in New Zealand, we have monthly data caps. 50GB is probably the most common at the moment for about NZ$50, but there was a time (not that long ago) when it was more like $100 for 20GB... -

mapboy replied to 19citypug's topic in SimCity (2013) General Discussion
I don't think the general gameplay bandwidth is that much, but the updates would take a fair chunk of data (especially as we're up to seven now!) -
Upcoming Patches and Updates: What Do You Want To See? (UPDATE 8 RELEASED, OUTDATED!)
mapboy replied to CapTon's topic in SimCity (2013) General Discussion
Making your own bus/streetcar routes would be great, and a way to avoid bunching. -
I've tried doing this, but I could never get enough workers to commute to it, even when there was a worker shortage in the other cities.

I'd almost forgotten what small city tiles were like in SC4...

How To: Overpasses, Sunken Highway, Subway and more
mapboy replied to reReticulated Spline's topic in SimCity (2013) General Discussion
This is amazing! Great find!!! -
And how are you going to avoid the update? The only way is to not play the game since it is automatic...
-
That Pinavia interchange is possibly the best I've ever seen!
-
I think I heard it was US$10... Although the DLC sounds cool, that's way too much for the small addition being offered.
-
" Transit: Streetcar stops can now be placed directly on standalone streetcar tracks, and passengers can walk along the tracks to them." Good. I was disappointed this already couldn't be done.
-
I also have run into this problem since the update. It is fairly irritating...

I've never played SC3K or societies, so... SC4 New SimCity SC2000 Original SimCity
-
It is sooooo confusing. I want to make a blank terrain, but I can't figure the map editor out....

Downloading it right now!

Anyone else get an update to SimCity?
mapboy replied to Titan's topic in SimCity (2013) General Discussion
I hope that the Nissan Leaf charging station is one of the free items they mentioned will be available in the Store. I would never pay for DLC with that much blatant product placement haha -
Cities in Motion 2 Shows Nifty Transportation Network Options
mapboy commented on Freddyeddy's article in News
Yep, it was about a third of the price of SimCity for me. -
Just preordered CiM2. Had to figure out how to use steam first though haha. It was cheap as chips compared to SimCity...

I really don't like shooter games, so went with NFS
