I think I've encountered a bug for solo. I've made three cities, haven't encountered any lag, the games never crashed for me and I don't have the PO. But one time I went to my friends house to show him the game and played offline, no connection whatsoever to the internet. When I came back to my place and reconnected to my home network (and internet), I logged in, opened one of my cities and as usual the loading screen with the picture with the 2 hands shaking popped up, but freezes after the picture fills with blue. I tried this with one of my other cities that I played offline with and the same thing happened, though I was still able to open up cities that I did not play offline with and was still able to start a new city. Any help/support/suggestions towards fixing this problem would be greatly appreciated.

One question though, how good does your internet connection need to be if you want to play the PO? I mean its not Halo 3 or COD4 so it shouldn't be too consuming right?

Another thing, don't people have the right to sew MC if their product or product key doesn't arrive?

Originally posted by: lucifon Negativity of some people on these forums amazes me, especially from people who haven't played the game and seem to *want* to be down on it. Try it for yourself before making a judgment first. So far the critic review scores have been good, not amazing no, but pretty good! Comparing this to the rubbish that was SC Societies is a joke. Do we compare every single game in a genre to the top dog and hate on it because it doesn't do this or doesn't do that? Judge CitiesXL for its own merits, play the game yourself and make a judgment on it for it being a City building game rather than the constant 'is this better than SC4' ideology.quote> Try not being upset down here in aus, first MC says we would be getting it on october 8th along with other countries, then shoves the release date out to october 15th, its BS if you ask me. I still have a fair bit of optimism left in me though, because after a few patches, all the Gems that I download off RS and all of the mods that I get off simtropolis, it should be quite a good game. Not SC5, (I recall from memory MC stating that they weren't planning to make it such) but still a good game. And to Lucifon: COD4 doesn't have much competition besides Halo 3, there are a load of imitations, some are rather good like GRAW, and there are also games like Gears of War 2 (I know it's not an fps, but its still great) but there has yet to be released a game that TRULLY competes with COD4. Looking forward to modern warfare 2 btw.

The Q1 Building from the Gold Coast, Australia would make an awesome addition, as well as Sydney Tower.
