Nice and cute but do not forget that in generall it is a or should be a city builder simulation. What about that gameplay ? any news ? GEM as planned are just something besides in my opinion

ups sorry here in english http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germany

http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deutschland

funny to read what u all know about Germany Poverty ? we are the richest country in Europe and we are on top of the world ( member of G8 ), we are the best americanized country outside US :-) (i hate that fact) proud of our nation ?, yes there are some people living somewhere in the past mostly we are europeans and we think european and we think that the EU is the future as well we founded it with france. we are only proud if we win the succer world or Eu championchip ( last we lost), on other hand we are open to the world and the time of we are GERMANS is over . We have no oil we can live from so we live from our work and with that we are the world leader in export ( cars and so on ) We are so i think that a real free country where u can really say and think what ever u want, free religion and so on. If u like visit Germany from west to east from north to south and see WE ARE NORMAL NOTHING SPECIAL signed by a German

I am sorry to say that but I can not follow the whole discussion here. I thougth we left this discussion more than 100 years behind now. For me as a european ( Germany ) i just can say that in our history the church ( katholic ) told us more that 1000 years how the world is ( about year 500 to 1800 ). A Lot of people died in the fires of the holy church to let the sience come through and to watch the world with open eyes to find out how she really is. To follow the bible word by word is really a done thing. And now I see that overseas you really discuss if it could be that ID or creation is the thruth about earth and life someone ever imagine what a world this would be if this is created ? Really you all are free to say what ever you want but seriously do not return back to times where church was / made politic and sience THIS IS PASSED and we were not were we are, even a discussion like this would not be possible if religion tries to explain the world it is a belive not more so this is my opinion you can have others but pls be open alternative to that again the link

@sim-maire In, long term SCS with its 5-10 add-ons will be largely superior quote> lol yes, ex. pack 10 will have diagonal roads be sure and stay squared till then

last post from me to SCS read the last Block from http://www.cuplanet.com and then tell me anything positive about SCS and there is a sence to buy Ex Packs instead of waiting for that game

lol Air traffic, shipping lanes ( u need 2 airports, 2 habours) in one city then u have the transportaition system missed in that game what a nice idear

lol i watched this simcity.com now they sell you each thing single from beginning on sim 2 strategie, what they offer now is nothing, at the end after 10 ex packs you will payed 200 $ for that :-) there is a mod download :-) lol i guess there is no community modding aon that game this is done by semselves I am so happy NOT to have this game

the square and the diagonal.... to have only this 2 possibilities the cities look what ever u do always the same...gridded the scale is not correct and to control the traffic is not really possible ( ped's prefer to take a bus driving 50 tiles than to walk 5 [also with NAM simulator]) pathfinding is bad and not really real

i am happy that a lot of us consumers are more intelligent as the money makers expected and we DO NOT BUY . May be this will be the reason that they will see that a product has to be good if it should become a financial success. Back to the roots will be the future i hope and i guess. The last trying the same was Empire Earth III....same story than SCS

the new strategie is to have micro transactions...that means u can buy in game some stuff for 1$. as they money maker recodniced that free games with micro transaction do a 5 times higher turnover than sold games. so they start to sell games + that feature EA do that with succer in asia so u can be sure scs will have that too

the expansion pack was already ready and finished as SCS came on the market ... be sure about that and also sure is that there are other ex paks already finished SCS is a low budget game but a high marketing money maker game

lol U will see ...it will be something like that

The ex. pack will be : some new style hair cuts for the sims running around some new shoes and dresses for those sims some new goodies like flames and stripes u can put on cars running around in SCS cities some new window frames ( red wood, black steel style) for the buildings u can choise to make ur city more individual a new fantastic feature to let ur sim form Sims 2 running through ur city a absolute new feature of mirco transactions that u can buy little eye candies in game wow fantastic.... for the fans of SCS ( i mean there was one or ? )

I guess a lot of People bougth it because SimCity is part of the games name. Not all are in this or other communities. this is like, not only EA is doing this, the thing works selling sh.. over a good name with making no exact announcement that this game is totally different.

Germany : SimCity Societies

what do I need to buy this game : 200 $ are in the cover to help me over the "brain pain"

trouble is all other game producers do the same cut a million seller game with the explaination "WE HAVE TO MAKE IT EASIER " polish a little the graphic engine with some cute effects and sell it with / by the name title of the game was a hit before if the fans then are not satisfied they push some add ons on the market (each then 30

my opinion the newer games getting boring because they are earier, because they are more hard coded and don't let the palyer left his own influence. For me it was the same with Age of emipres .. with Age of kings the new game was more difficult and more free. It was sold million wise then they came out with AGE III nice 3d eye candy very easy to play in just one hour room for strategie wasn't given just shout em all for me boring as much as possible same now with sc5 ... this game will be boring because it is short, small area, nothing to thing about just knowing the given things and clicking jere and there. If someone just want a game it migth be ok but if it is true that complicate games are bad to sell I am asking why f.e. MS Fligth Simulator is such a succesfull thing and there is nobody had the idear to make it easier, instead make it more realistic more complicate. Are these people who don't wnat to learn don't want to think don't want to solve problems really CUSTOMERS ??? I just hope that SC S will not sold successfully otherwise i see a bad future for PC games becomming playstation or X-Box games for kids under 10

like the http://www.flightgear.org/ project as the base engine http://www.softgames.de/developia/viewproject.php?cid=20708 sorry I dind't find it in english ~Next time please use the 'Edit' button if you want to add more info.~

in view of "as real as possible" most of my wishes are said. so here just some wishes i belive won't said here : traffic signs and rail signals in real mode ( option of the game ) traffic ligths has to be placed (not only on x - ings ) and may be the player can adjust how the switch and when. Signs beside or over roads ( and other ) like no parking, speed limit a.s.o. if not standart traffic rules ( depend of country ) Rail signals to control (logical) rail traffic Design & traffic as i am an european i like to be able to build cities more european ( very small grid allows splined road and rails also regarding slopes no corners more possibilities for ped. traffic (EU inner cities [downtowns] often for ped only ) cars don't dissapear but need parking places. If there are none they take the roadside ( gets more realistic, parking is a hughe city problem a player should solve) With this mass transit is a part of possible solution by offering park and ride f.e. region a region sholud be very big with adjustable climate zones over the region and seasons a city startb püoint can be selected free somewhere in the region . no spereate city system as now in SC4 . The major of a citie has to buy land from the region if city need that to expand. A city can buy other neigbour cities to make them a part of it. adjustable : different goods, recources, human recources comming from outside the region or can be shipped to the outside worl of region. otherewise the region has to produce it . for that rail or road connecting is needed to teh outside world. Those region road and rails can be build on teh country instead it belongs not to a city as said in the thread : cities the player is not playing run in the same time as the actual city it can be adjust if the player runs the citie or a kind of ups !!! to continue ...it can be adjust if the player runs the cities or a kind of AI runs the not human control cities. Multiplayer should be possible. How this should work should be a extra thread City areas are not squared. The frontiers of a city is a spline too expanding by buying land from region. Bus, rails and other mass transit can be run in private mode ( then as it is now in SC4) or in major mode ( then the player has to buy f.e. buses, adjuste the bus lines from where to where and when) making contracts with other citys that f.e. buses can go in an other city to connect them by bus to his own city. mmmmh i should stop here and give the summary : AS REAL AS POSSIBLE btw SC5 as i see is a game ( not a simulator as SC4 ) good for kids under 10 years old made for selling expansion packs and it seems "as unreal as possible" so no way to buy it for me
