One thing that saddens me is that the alien UFO in Sim City only abducts some citizens, blow up 1 or 2 building and then leave. I would much prefer the large scale alien invasions from Sim City 4, in wich the aliens were a real threat. In the new Sim City, the alien abduction seems boring, so I would like to see a bigger scale alien abduction or even if possible a BIG alien invasion force.

The only thing I dislike in Cities XL is that the cities don't feel "alive" as they do in SimCity. I will take a look at Cities XL Platinum, see if there some "simulation" in it.

But will I be able to purchase the Digital Deluxe edition after the launch? I've already contacted EA to ask this, but they answered like if I was asking about my account's security.

Guys, I wasn't invited for any of the betas, and I am thinking about pre-ordering the game, but I don't know if it is worth. So you lucky guys that had the chance to play the beta, was it good?

The game looks impressive, but like a lot of people have already said here, having cities surrounded by nothing more than grasslands/plains and trees isn't a very good idea.

Towards 1,000,000!

Hey, guys! I wonder what is the mod that allows me to make the streets "circular" as you can see in the image below:

[quote name='MilitantRadical' timestamp='1343659350'] Hey, looks like a good start. You should find some place like imageshack or flickr to host your images. As you progress you should start ditching the ugly Maxis buildings, but that takes time. [/quote]Good idea. I improved this entry using images I uploaded in ImageShack.

I agree. And I'll buy the digital deluxe edition because I want to build a futuristic London in SimCity 2013 (I'm not even European, but I like London). Good luck with that, if the tile sizes are only 2x2km you will have a hard time building London, it just won't fit... or any other large city, and since there is all that wasted land between cities, you can't even build 2 cities close to each other to give the illusion of one large city. Its the biggest downfall of the game. Other people complain about multiplayer and online play, I'm actually excited- gives some excitement to the game, and some complain no terraforming- and i'm ok with the feature being lost. I'm generally optimistic about this game, but the way they manage the regions is a HUGE downside to me. I can understand why. They want to include "great works" that everyone benefits from in a region, and that's the reason for the space in between. But honestly, I would want them to just get rid of the space in between- and have the players collaborate on the where to place these "great works" maxis is so concerned about. This is a big problem. In my opinion, Maxis could increase the maps, making them equal to the large maps in SimCity 4. I also think it could be a space between the cities to build the "great works" as long as the maps were large enough to build a metropolis.

Great city! But how did you upload many images without reaching the limit of 2 MB?
