EA proposes restrictions on SimCity (2013) mods that “affect the simulation”
dino_yoshi13 commented on Haljackey's article in News
Why not just allow users to host third party servers? That would definitely alleviate the problems caused by modding, and as a plus, since people would be able to host their own servers, you could technically host a server on your own computer. Since Origin does not require you to be online to use it, it technically also creates an offline mode without any needed extra coding done. Also, in this scheme, the mods would be installed on the server side, beaning you are only able to access mods a server administrator approves. -
Maxis, this isn't what we meant when we said we wanted SC2013 to be more like SC4. Also note this bug started with patch 4 as well

I think the key idea here is that they actually learned something from their mistake in pushing Sim City online. I bet this was originally meant to be a online only game as well, but was transformed back to single player by the backlash on SC2013, especially since EA saw the market for SC2013 composed of mostly Sims fans.

This is utter heartbreaking.

There is one thing I though about the reason they didn't get more servers for the release, and it's because your saved games are attached to a single server. If that server shuts down, you also end up losing everything. And I can't wait to see what happened when we introduce the rest of the world into the mix, as Europe and quite a few other areas of the world haven't even received the game release yet. And it's that many more people being added to the same servers, not new servers. -
I have a feeling it will be like the Sims 3 Store, where the items veer more toward the side of aesthetics and not game features.
