It could have been so beautiful. The graphics are on par this time, the menu etc. is very clearly structured and bugs were hardly any on. In good old SimCity 4 could build two weeks at his city, and had only then probably achieved "full level" and was willing to start the next city. In this "SimCity" - which I would have given this game a different name * cough * * cough * SimVille - builds to 10 hours in his town and ... you're done! The Mapgrenze was achieved anyway after 3 hours and it was only the houses on the highest density and to expand throughout the industry ... And now comes the next town ... Build, build, ready! ... It goes on and on ... You do not feel you're mayor of this "city". After about 10 hours it has nothing to do and can do nothing else than to destroy them or to build the next village. The idea that friends can also make "cities" on the same card and the different "cities" with all supply can help out possible /, is a nice idea, but it is thought wrong and does not work! A SimCity 4 with the image and the SimCity this menu, that was my expectation and I have wished for. I get a SimVille with strong initial server problems, stupid online duty too small cards and no long-term motivation. Too bad the server so unreliable running initially. But what I find incomprehensible is the assertion by Maxis, online duty and small cards are integrated too deep in the system and it would be "an extensive engineering work needed" to change this. 4 days after release came out a Mod, which the Mapgrenzen had moved and was in which SimCity offline playable. I'm sorry, but if you introduce the online duty to avoid piracy and maximize your profits, then please provide reasonable Server available and says but the truth!
Now the entire game has lost its appeal because they had been too afraid of pirated and cracked versions of the game and therefore has the ultimate goal of a true SIMCITY aside. An individual has undermined these online compulsion that in 4 days! Means: The modified game of this individual is better than the original from Maxis.
I'm sorry, next time I order no longer exist, no matter what is said! The trust Maxis is gone! With best regards, Martin Worzalla
