yup it's stupid right now - NOTHING works.

ime2006 03-06-2013 09:01 PM

Cant even connect anything.....this is a lot worse than D3.....

I am getting really pissssssed.

ForbiddenX 03-06-2013 09:12 PM

yea fuck after installing I couldn't connect to anything. So lame.

impactX 03-06-2013 09:14 PM

I don't know what's worse... connected to US West 1 but getting stuck in tutorial as there's no prompt, or connect to other servers with the tutorial not even popping up. EA is such fail.

Ch28 03-06-2013 09:15 PM

Looks like EA's decision to go with "always-online DRM" is definitely working out REAL well for a single player game :lol

impactX 03-06-2013 09:18 PM

All it required was a logon authentication; but no, they wanted EVERYTHING to be stored on the server side...

This is the only time I will be buying anything on Origin. As a bandaid ... Im playing Tropico on Steam. Flawlessly.

Fuck you EA!!!!

Calbeee 03-06-2013 11:25 PM

it feels like i spend more time trying to play the game than actually playing the game.

still cant figure out how to make the traffic smoother. I'm getting a gridlock at the highway entrance to the city.... I've already gotten most mass transit like trains and planes to my town, but people still keep driving! its causing the garbage trucks from the other towns really backed up and couldn't collect any trash....

or Simcity 4... which I still think is far superior to new simcity by far in many aspects

so guys i figured out how to kinda cheat if you didn't do any long term planning and your city is starting to get fucked up and unmanageable.

first it requires at least 50-60k citizens... pretty easy.

jack up taxes to 20% on all levels.

fast forward x3.

and get ready to bulldoze. just keep raking in the money, and bulldoze shit as it gets abandoned... you might wanna keep fire services on in case fires start. lol.

slowly as population drops, turn off services, so u can keep raking in money.

when u get bored enough doing this... (i saved up 2million), pause the game, turn off all your services parks and everything, bulldoze everything, dezone everything. but leave the roads and parks and police/ambulance schools whatever nice buildings you have.

now start planning and restart... edit your roads and preplan everything... took me like 2 hours.

we'll see how it goes. i laid down every service building possible spread out properly and all that shit. but turned them off till population requires it. LOL.

we'll see how it goes.

you're welcome.

gilly 03-07-2013 08:11 AM

I did the same thing back in Simcity 4......lol
And it worked in simcity 5 as well.
But I saved couple mil, destroy everything, then rebuild.

Wait a week or few. You may be able to play, but there are so many potential headaches, right now. Currently, EA has disabled some non-critical features in order to keep the servers stable. Amazon has even, temporarily, pulled the game from the store:

trip 03-07-2013 01:25 PM

ive been trying to build a region landmark for days... i think its been disabled.

for ppl who are having traffic problems at the front entrance.. make a huge highway at the front of it and FORK IT. that helps/helped. you will need to replan the roads in your city.

i demolished half my city and built a highway system encircling the city.. the question is .. is it there when i log in later? or is it gonna get rolledback

Ulic Qel-Droma 03-07-2013 01:27 PM

uhhh so after your water pump runs out of water... u build another one.. and it runs out and u build another etc...

is there any long term solution to have constant water??

how come water in the ground never fucking replenishes... wtf..

trip 03-07-2013 03:43 PM

build water plant near sewage treatment = infinite water

/troll


srsly, i read that it worked lol

Taxmonkey 03-07-2013 03:47 PM

Which version to purchase? Anyone with the deluxe edition feel that the extra content is well worth the money?

twitchyzero 03-07-2013 03:56 PM

720 unfavourable reviews off Amazon averaging 1 star...LOL
EA deserves it.
