Originally posted by: Zebular P.S. I first tried downloading the links directly, from the email I got from Gamesplanet. However the download rate wouldn't go above 50kb/s and I am on 6mb/s cable. So, I took their advice and installed the Free Download Manager and started downloading through that. To my gleeful suprise, the download rates through the FDM are wonderful, I am just about done downloading the 2nd file at rates between 750 kb/s to 1mb/s. So if you did the digital order through Gamesplanet, I suggest using the FDM they link to in the email with the download links.quote> My speeds were much slower, going at 120-180 odd with FDM, but 600 on each of the two files when downloading directly.

Got my key and downloading now. Shame I wont be able to play it until tomorrow evening. Damn work.

This controversy stems from the fact that when the forums were deleted, so were two years of discussions in regards to the game, good and bad[21]. The company has stated that the community is not to worry, as they have "saved all of the good posts", and would continue to maintain a presence on sites such as Simtropolis[22][23]. Users have also reported poor customer service; one user reportedly received an empty envelope instead of the product, and communications with the company were not promptly answered[24]. Monte Cristo, located in France, does not maintain a toll-free number for international customers such as in the US, and they must pay long-distance fees if they want to call customer support.quote> Also, Spill It Out! reviewed Cities XL: http://www.spillitout.com/wag-the-finger/cities-xl-needs-an-xl-dose-of-logic/ quote> Seems the Wikipedia entry has been removed.
