  1. EA Adds Nissan Leaf Sponsored Item to SimCity

    I don't think what Bipin is talking about will ever be an issue...but I do think if the game ever gets modding, we'll end up having to battle a bureaucracy to get mods in. For example, a McDonald's BAT...will someone be able to do that, or would they get a message stating something about trademarks, yada yada yada...
  2. It was posted 2 A.M., April 1st...thus...APRIL FOOLZ!!! =)
  3. Build the Best: University City (Winner)

    What's that big argopolis-like building thing in the background?
  4. "Banished" a City Building Strategy Game

    Looks pretty sweet. If you can raise pigs in it, and in turn make bacon...you'll sell a million copies...
  5. Cities in Motion 2 Interview

    Is CiM2 prebuilt cities? And you just do the transit? Or do you build the city from the ground up?
  6. SimCity PR Nightmare Escalates

    "filling up the nearest house"....kind of goes against the promise of Glassbox =(
  7. Maxis to RPS: SimCity servers 'not necessary'

    Has anyone used a program like Fiddler, to see how much traffic is going back and forth between SimCity and it's servers? That should be a big indication...
  8. EA Suspends SimCity Marketing

    Ouch...
  9. Medieval Mayor

    I can't find a screenshot or game-play video...is this vapour-ware?
  10. Anno 2070, first toughts

    Geez......never heard of 2070, will have to look at it.
  11. I think a lot of us do the same with SC4...having an industrial city next to the residential/commercial ones, off on it's own. I usually have power there and the garbage dump.
  12. I got two things from this thread. Stay out of Dewm's region as he'll collapse your economy, and nhgriffith is ready to be our garbage dump and sewage area
  13. Leaked SimCity Game Manual

    That picture on the manual, can you even build bridges? Haven't seen any game play imagery where there are cities with rivers in it.
  14. My problem is that social gamers...don't spend $60+ on a game. They usually play for free and do the micro-transaction route, or they pay $4.99 for something like Angry Birds. And a lot of us here won't be paying $60 on such a limiting game. Now if the game was for sale for $20 or $30, then I can see the "social gamer" aspect, and EA can make even more money with DLC. Paying $60, one would be more hesitant to pay $5-$15 for chunks of downloadable extras.
  15. Windows 8 and SimCity?

    +1 what Xeno said. And remember that the Windows Store is only for Windows 8 Modern apps. Not for desktop applications. E.g. Photoshop is a desktop application, and won't be in the Windows Store.
  16. Everything is driven by the server I would think; variables are all there, everything is saved there. Will have to see what mods will even be possible, don't think they're even announced anything about mods except in passing...
  17. Maybe my Radeon 4650 is just out of date
  18. My 12 year old son: "Looks just like Simcity Societies". I played for about 5 minutes and I was quite bored with it. And you must need a top of the line computer to really play this thing. I have a 3GHz processor and 4GB of RAM and this was chunky on the lowest settings. =(
  19. NAM Version 31 Release Date Announcement

    Is there a wiki or blog post with a list of everything?
  20. "With just 1 hour to test it's hardly enough time to test out the game" Especially since the most important thing about reporting a bug, is the steps to reproduce it.
  21. NAM Version 31 Release Date Announcement

    The Draggable FAR looks amazing...
  22. How big is your plugin folder?

    Mine still crashes after cleanup, but seems a tiny bit more stable. Wonder if going from 4GB RAM to 8GB would make a difference. I also saw that one 3rd party thing that compresses your plugins folder...does it help stability at all, or does it just make things load faster?
  23. How big is your plugin folder?

    I think he just means Ctrl-S as "Save & Continue". Yeah, I've been in my plugins folder for about an hour so far and I've already cleaned out 200 items. Plop files, Landmark files, railroad stuff I never used, etc....hopefully it helps
  24. How big is your plugin folder?

    Yeah, good to keep the plugins folder clean. I'm doing that right now. Going through wach folder, removing PLOP/LM files, as I never use them...and cleaning out plugins I don't use....like bike trails and other stuff.
  25. How big is your plugin folder?

    What about CPU/RAM and the size of a plugins folder? I have 3GHz & 4GB RAM....does more RAM help?
