The rumor is that it will release at like 9am in the morning. It should go out at midnight, but meh... Valve is weird about release times.

doh! So hopefully it will go online at 12am EST, meaning 9pm PST. I have a feeling I'll be up all night playing it. lol

That wasn't the question. I already knew about the district thing. What I was asking is about the land purchases. Currently you have to buy the full tile of land, which is essentially owned by one city. The question I was asking is if in a future patch, we wouldn't be limited to just buying the full tile to expand upon. Instead, we would be able to just purchase an area of land we choose. So say for example your city is within a peninsula between two rivers. You could choose just to own the land within the peninsula, while say the other side of the river would be owned by another city. The borders of the city limits could be the middle of the river. See attachment for example.

Do you guys know if there will be a pre-load option available before release?

I like the idea of buying land to expand your city, but is it possible to make those city borders more realistic in a future DLC / Mod / Update? So instead of buying a huge square of land, you could create more realistic city borders like shown below:

Judging by all of the Let's Plays so far, this seems like the best and most realistic city building game on the market. This is coming from someone in the city planning / developing field. Looking forward to this release!

The game looks good. Can't wait till Tuesday when it comes out.

You forgot to add bigger maps to the poll.

Unfinished product you say? I hope you write to Microsoft and tell them that about your operating system or maybe you are a battlefield fan and so on and so on, product patches and updates are a part of gaming I for one have enjoyed simcity from the day it was released, does it have problems, is it missing features I would have liked ? Yes but they are fixing them, as they will be doing with the city size. This simcity was a leap from all previous simcities so they were never going to get it right straight off the bat but from day one I have enjoyed linking up online with my brother with our iPads on FaceTime just enjoying the game at £30 a bargin as far as I am concerned, and no for others to see the same mods as you have installed they have to have them installed as well otherwise they see the stock simcity as the pack files are stored locally lol, sounds like you work for EA.

Anyone else missing traffic lights in this build (7.0) and does anyone know how to fix em? Thanks -Turge

All of the above except I want more disasters!

They're using Valve Time on this release... -________-

I know this has probably already been suggested, but we need one way roads. Especially with the new patch so we can make proper on and off ramps.

lol. I'm pretty sure that's what that kid wants.

Having the same issue. Skipping to the game breaks it even more.

While messing around with a few mods, I figured out a way to glitch into the region mode camera. This makes for building outside of the city box much easier. It pretty much allows you to build anywhere on the map easily. Now only if you could legitimately build RCI buildings outside of the city box...

Changed the title and you are correct good sir. ty

Here's the mod if you guys were wondering: http://www.reddit.com/r/SimCity/comments/1cbmjw/mod_pack_plop_outside_city_box_all_my_others/

Looks interesting. I hope he releases this soon.
