This game is missing so much stuff.
Sliders.
Graphs.
Histograms.
HIGHWAYS.
The worst part is I wanted to see what building on a slope was going to be like. Nope, not getting to check that out. :/
Despite the advances in some areas (moddable buildings and ploppable school bus stops on roads) the game is so shallow that it doesn't allow the new additions to redeem itself. Also I think it's so easy to make money in the game because they don't allow you to throttle back any of the services. You pay full price for everything, all the time. The budget window is a complete joke from what I saw unless you install 50 billion upgrades to your City Town Hall and everything was extremely expensive up front. Build. Profit. Wait.
I played it for three hours and felt accomplished, sure, but not SATISFIED from the simulation. Grr.
