Originally posted by: coultharda I must admit, this is a really interesting, and potentially fantastic idea. Although I'm happy with SC4, anything new, with the community concensus on features is most welcome, and I'd be happy to try and do a few models for it if the project ever reaches that stage. I may only make high-polygon stuff at the moment, but I'm sure I and many others could if required alter our modelling style. The most important thing though I think now is to get the basics sorted out and then the initial programming done. We could talk for weeks on this, but IMHO, we need a distinct heirachy (people to go to with queries and the like) and then people working on whatever stage of the game we're at. On the basics, I think we should stick to the current SimCity style of doing things, with more elaboration on the points that annoyed us gamers (service radius, grid, commute etc.). I won't bash all what I think out, as the ideas in this thread seem to cover it fine. Chances are this idea won't get past early stages (let's not kid ourselves), but it is possible, and we can do it if we want it enough.quote> We have to remember what's at risk here, simcity could die if we dont do this, and i dont think anyone wants to see simcity die

i think almost everyone can say this is very possible, it's a great idea, and i would love to see it happen, but now before any idea's can be put into action we need to start programing, and starting a offical forum, mabey even a website, once the programing is done we can start on alot of the other stuff.

lately the simtropolis 1000 idea has somepeople saying it's impossible, to hard, would take too long to make it. BUT people do you think maxis, or ea, or even other game companies were made out of dust and people just bought there game...NO! these companies, mostly worked hard to make there games big, the first 2 simcity's were made from hard work, and determantion. simtropolis 1000 could become a big time game, and a franchise, so lets see the ideas and we could make it work

im sorry for another quick reply, but another good name for the game would be "SIMCITY REBORN" because it's being made by the fans, though we could get into legal troubles, just a thought

i olny want 3D if they can give a good enough datail, offer great gameplay, and dont have too many bugs, also if it looks good.. if not the graphics from simcity 4 were good enough for me

i just want to say something.. in other games that had the samething happen, they tries to make there own game, all of them were unsuccseful, if we do start this, we need every simcity 4 fansite involved, we dont need many diffrent games being devolped, we need one game being devolped, one community ( many fansites) working on it, with help from them, this can easily become reality

i used it, but it's too complex for simcity societies, and would be a disaster with scs graphics

it's very sad, the past week i've been very emotional, i honestly think simcity 4 will sell better when societies come out, ill try it , if it isnt over 30 dollars but come on this is EA, big, greedy Ea

They will not have regions, because REGIONS ARE TO COMPLEX AND TOO COMPLICATED, lol

it's a great idea, there are over a 170,000 members, and more on other sites, thats more than enough to make a team!! you could even have marketing, make a web site, and lots more, this sounds alot better than scs, it's very possible, and simtropolis will have alot of donaters! Also with advertising from other simcity fansites, as on are own simtropolis, with the money we could get computers, if this dose all come together mabey we could put it in diffrent languages, and sell it around the world, if we make enough money, ewo could even start on a sequel to it, the possibilities are endless

I blame both ea and tm, ea for giving simcity to tm , and tm for giving us a piece of Edited of a game, come on think of what the people want, this is not a game for 5 year old here's what Scipio said... "It makes me think of this: Here's a car. It's a very complicated machine. Too complicated as a matter of fact. We're going to take off the wheels, to make it easier for you. And since you don't have wheels you don't need the breaks or steering wheel. In fact you don't need the axels either. And since you're not going anywhere you don't really need the engine either. Also what good is a windshield? None. There you have it. The essence of a car. None of that crap that makes it difficult.".. it dose look like what simcity societies is turning into

sure when we first got it we were overwhelmed, but WE LEARNED and made it great, if it's to simpile like what their doing,( learn more at http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?cId=3160151 ) people will not by it, it almost seems like they think 5 year olds play this game

WHAT THE!!!!!!!!! DO THEY THINK simcity is for 5 YEAR OLDS PLAY THIS GAME!!!!!!

what dose simcity have to do with Zelda Windwaker? and furthermore most simcity fans say that screenshot, was terrible, over a 100,000 people and growing who hate it! and im one of them!

hmm, i glad chris said that, but how could he make suck a big mistake like that!?!

i was also on that forum, that's the heart of simcity, the screenshot looks like a cartoon, and WHO cares about the "societies" most people care about makig the city! But thanks for the honesty, [Excuse you...] !

in my opinion im pretty emotional about everything that's going on, im angry, sad, excited, and dumfounded, but besides me i want to know what other people think. Moderators please dont close the thread because of what people are saying, as a simcity fansite we have rights, weather or not there nice or not, to voice them, just saying!

were not over reacting,come on it's common since, new company,they have a new dirction,and the DIRECTOR SAYS "This SC is not a realistic urban simulation". WHAT DO YOU EXPECT HARDCORE SIMCITY FANS TO DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

with out simtropolis and other sites simcity would be dead by know, so THANK YOU EVERYONE!

THe guy after him is RIGHT dont let what maxis did die out!!!!!!!!!!!1

i very worried, the screenshot( no offence) looks to cartoonish, i thought it was rollar coaster tycoon, or mall tycoon, but remember it's still just one screen shot, even thouugh this is a newer company, hopefully EA choose it for a reason,i would perfer maxis but we dont know what's going on behind the sceans, but for future members of the company, mabey a diffrent name, and some more realistic buildings would be better(just saying from the screenshot)

AS fans we have to understand we can olny fit so much into one game,but some things could have been less bugged, with some better deatail, SC5 should be like some blizzard games, not bugged, great detail, ect. sc5 should come out when it's ready, instead of making a big list im just going to say anything that makes it realistic.
