Time bar stops counting or is completely blank
Lurch_123 posted a topic in SimCity (2013) Technical Help Q&A
Hi all. Since the last update I have been experiencing something strange. I do not believe its on my side as I have a pretty high spec gaming rig. not the highest but still high enough. Just about every time I play the game for a period the clock in the bottom corner stops counting or completely vanishes. This is usually followed by long periods of the same sounds playing all the time. I have also noticed that even though the time is not ticking over my game goes from night to day and then night again. I find this very strange and upsetting especially when you set an event up and then it never happens because its waiting for 8 o'clock. I have made significant changes to my city during periods when this has happened and all of them have always been right updated when I go back into my city so I really don't fully understand what can be happening here. -
Positioning the train station
Lurch_123 replied to Rufus Honker IV's topic in SimCity (2013) Technical Help Q&A
Really wish they could bring out some other rail options, the new trains are looking pretty cool and stuff its just not forced tunnels, no overpasses. I has the train line crossing my entrance road, all was ok until my passengers started getting above 23k per station and trains were wizzing past the entrance to my city every couple of (in game) minutes. really had a big traffic problem on my hands. The needs for an over or underpass on these city's is immense. Streetcars do not seem to help with traffic in my experience. everytime I lay out a map with streetcar avenues its a complete abortion after a couple of days. the real problem I see with them is that there has to be a traffic light at any intersection and this creates dead traffic all the time. If anyone has suggestions for this I would be interested to see. -
If you could go back and doit again,,,would you still buy SimCity 5?
Lurch_123 replied to parenzo's topic in SimCity (2013) General Discussion
Yes I would buy it again, I read all the bad comments and stuff before buying it, and I have to say that some of the stuff has happened to me, but I spent so much more time on this game than on any others recently. The only thing is that it could be better and since the last update downloaded with cheetah speed re enabled I keep getting errors. before I didn't have to many. -
it sounds like that suburb almost doesnt have enough of a connection and probably uses all the water on the first few houses each time? maybe you could have avoided getting another pump if you introduce a second way into the area with no water?

Very Very bad in game graphics
Lurch_123 replied to reeceflem's topic in SimCity (2013) Technical Help Q&A
I have 2 questions for you, firstly you have not given us all your spec's so its hard to say you can just upgrade, secondly if you can upgrade your graphics card and have a ceiling of 150 pounds then the GTX 460 is very outdated now, the 650 TI is been sold for about 88 pounds and will kick the 460 out the water. (I know I have a GTX 460) not saying its a bad card but still. I have a link for the http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/reviews/pc-components/3405327/pny-geforce-gtx-650-ti-review/ Please note that if you are running this off a laptop this advice is irrelevant and hence my first statement about all the system spec's. This kind of card will also allow you to play a variety of different games not just SC5.- 8 Replies

South African region on EU W6
Lurch_123 replied to cH33SEmAST3R's topic in SimCity (2013) Region Games
I have started the space center in this region last night. -
Last night I had the same thing, didn't really notice it till later, I was on a call, and turned the music off. anyway after a couple of hours I had the game just repeat the same sounds over and over again. very frustrating, turned the music back on and no music came up.
