This game is half finished and totally soiled and ruined the reputation of a classic game series. Stop excusing people's incompetence with stupid platitudes. They knew it was not even fixed and it was not even playable. EA even stopped people from getting refunds for this game. I am glad I dodged a bullet by not purchasing SimCity (2013).

But I fail to see how you justify them as complaints: are you a share holder, or perhaps the parent of one of the developers? Maybe this game was your idea, and you've seen it stripped from your hands! Attention all gamers: you are not entitled. That's it. My challenge to you: create your own game the way YOU want it to be. Otherwise, play it, like it, or don't like it. The problem is, the gamers who enjoy the experience aren't vaulting out of their seats to complain, so you only hear from the whiners. <br /><br />Anyway, all the best!dbarudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12159406747164338717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-877531315080879661.post-68777473383088731712013-03-23T17:01:18.684-07:002013-03-23T17:01:18.684-07:00Great article and I hope to encourage EA to fix.

The in-game guidance is telling me to "zone more residential" - but I'm completely out of space within an hour of starting to play the game. How realistic is that?

All the things that the long-time fans of the series, and the things that people loved in prior versions of the franchise were stripped away. Fact is, the city building sub-genre is, and will always be a niche; one that is large enough to justify the productions of these titles. They are trying to attract the casual gamer, to an inherently non-casual genre.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-877531315080879661.post-40519109809220513132013-03-13T12:07:31.463-07:002013-03-13T12:07:31.463-07:00Dad and I both want to make farm towns but that is...Dad and I both want to make farm towns but that is impossible in any Sim City where you have a small city and far away you have a small town or dozens of small towns 10 miles apart with farms in between and a city on one end with a port for transporting goods from the farms.<br /><br />We have seen farms that are working well suddenly become Smog-O-Matics or Thingamajigs.

Maxis team are puppets controlled by EA which only care about the lowest common denominator in demographics so Maxis are told what to say or not say in press meetings long before any of us shake hands. <br /><br />In fact me sure they plan their speeches ahead of time with scripted responses and no reply if no script. <br /><br />It will be part of the slow but steady trend to a New World Order/AntiChrist since the Industrial Revolution and we are in the transitional period hence why many games and electronic devices now be required online connection so they spy on you're usage which eventually make law enforcement profiles of you based on what you play and how you chat online. Mind you're P's and Q's. <br /><br />It no stop there however. <br /> <br /><br />Now computers are heading towards direction where you don't even own you're files. They are stored in a remote server in da clouds instead of you're own hard drive which they can disconnect you or throttle you're ISP anytime.<br /><br /><br />Windows 8 which we all hate is geared towards tablets and phones rather then desktops and is very buggy on desktop mode. <br />Those with said phones and tablets however love it because that's what it's made for.<br /><br /> <br /><br /><br />The head boss of Win 8 two weeks later vanished without a trace and nobody knows where he is and all this criticism believe it or not comes from computer magazines and reviewers which usually they only give positive reviews only. <br /><br />Usually computer magazines have a fanboy snob attitude about their system but if THEY are giving Microsoft Windows flack then that means something is really wrong with it to get the snob people angry and freaked out.<br /><br /><br />One reviewer put it bluntly and said it should be called Microsoft Window instead of Windows because you can only do one thing at a time and it's clunky to use on desktop mode.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />This is all part of a trend for when the one world government sets up and requires an RFID chip to buy or sell anything and the AntiChrist will likely be holographic 3D hence an *Image of the beast* that can speak and move and put people to death.<br /><br />This all due to the AntiChrist breathing upon to him life but the people in the bible had no concept of computers and holographic imagery.<br /><br />Hell people in the late 1980s didn't have much concept of computers and 3D imagery except for nerds.MrDatanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-877531315080879661.post-70269987729604126102013-03-12T22:02:08.068-07:002013-03-12T22:02:08.068-07:00You've predicted every bad things about the ga...You've predicted every bad things about the game.

Yes, I ...I don't know about all the complaints. Yes, I agree, a farm here and there would be nice, especially to feed your people. But that would be come a business simulation with supply and demand of economics. Still, maybe have it as a difficulty feature in later versions.<br /><br />As far as size, I would really like to test out the game before I say anything. I kind'a like the small cozy feel of a town instead of a gigantic, uncontrollable metropolis. And yes, lots of cities have deadspace between them. Maybe that's where farms come from. If they would have made farm graphics instead of green fields, would you have been happier?<br /><br />Automatic Zoning densities is ok with me. It would make it more of a challenge to try to get higher densities going. After all, if people want bigger buildings, who are you to tell them not to? Did you ever try to fight city hall on even putting up a fence on your property? I think what people want, people should get... like bigger buildings.<br /><br />All in all, yes, they did a great job on not making SimCity: Societies II. I applaud them for that, and the online connection will be an annoyance that I can get used to, but I frankly don't care about that, and neither do the 99% of people who have not complained about the game who will buy it.<br /><br />Enjoy!Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04259857779488132567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-877531315080879661.post-17943343738196570672013-03-05T07:52:57.839-08:002013-03-05T07:52:57.839-08:00WEll, I will leave to buy the game after modders g...WEll, I will leave to buy the game after modders get access to the Modding tools.
