Unacceptable! DO NOT BUY before all defects have been eliminated! Unplayable!

Online compulsory
At the online requirement is a standard case of massive multiplayer online games. As an important and supporting part
the game is interacting with a variety of other users and this technical aspect is the best solution.
However, this is not the case with Sim City. SimCity has in all his previous incarnations always without a
Online compulsory works. The online duty contributes nothing to the game. Of course the Multiplayer requires LAN or
a standing Internet connection (LAN but is not even offered). However, this is not an argument a general
Pay online duty. Because the multiplayer element could also be replaced by a non-binding online option
can, with ease. Instead MUST ALL, even those who only want to play single player,
meet the requirements for multiplayer. And why? What reason does this mean? CONTROL.
The developer / publisher want to milk the reseller market. Games can not be easily sold new.
From now on, are the games you no longer. You lend it to you only as long as you play it. If you do but continue
want to sell, the buyer shall send a new activation with the developers / publishers acquire, ergo new purchase.
The freedom of consumers to swap their games among themselves, to share and to sell, which was still
has always been a thorn in the side. Now they're in control. The most important argument is, of course: Piracy!
Yeah, now that all of them are taken to the online line is, the evil pirates placed the craft and pirated
serve no purpose. WRONG. These so-called "pirate" can still propagated with some small hand movements
rid their game of the pesky online duty and then have exactly the game we should have really.
A non-online-Paid SIM CITY. What brings the normal honest paying customers? Nothing. NOTHING !!!
Some do not have Internet. Some sometimes have no Internet. Some want the game to perhaps
play a laptop that has just no Internet. What's so wrong with that? Why will we refuse that?
I see no good reason justifying the online duty in the eyes of consumers.

Origin duty
Anyone who wants to Sim City, comes to the Origin client is not around it. We can as Origin
Imagine selling platform where the players of SimCity forced advertising and news regularly
is, if he really wants to play the game. Origin for me is just an ugly appendage
unnecessarily consumes memory and vollspammt me with unrelevanten product information.
Something that I would remove immediately if it would not be anchored with an iron chain to SimCity.
You want no advertising? Too bad, because no Origin, not Sim City. You want your personal user information
not pass on to obtain a forced upon Origin account? Too bad no Origin, not Sim City.

Server debacle
A simple scenario. You buy the game. It will be delivered. One is forced to an artificial Release
Appointment to wait until you can use the game that you have already purchased and already physically possesses.
If all have been waiting for it to play the game and the moment has come, comes the
big surprise. Sip. Since all want to start at a time to play the game, the servers are completely
overloaded. Unfortunate, because now you have to wait even longer before you can play the game.
Here this issue is homemade in several points. First, if there were no online duty
If there were no server problems. Second, if there were no artificial blockade before the release date
would that player would be passed gradually to the server. Third, each of the release date of Diablo 3
has witnessed, is aware of the problems of a release date. Even if the developer / publisher of the game
had no experience with online games, this debacle could have been avoided. A large open beta test
with the announced release date of this issue had long revealed in advance. Unfortunately, found only one
Closed beta held unfit to stress tests to simulate in realistic proportions. Here, the developer / publisher
built large manure, its consequences have to bear the purchaser of the Game. Now I hear some voices who claim
the server defaults to occur and release date are also included. Those should the game released with the opening
Compare a theme park. You bought the season tickets, you waited until the opening and stick
for days and hours stuck in a huge queue. All attractions are overcrowded and break under the weight
visitors together. Whoever claims that all the nagging, are impatient, do not seem to know,
life time is precious! They seem to do anything better. They probably have NO JOB !!

Some might say that it does not say anything about these problems, the quality of the game and that's a star unfair. I would like to say the following: Anyone who says that you should rate the game based on its contents, the can
the technical aspect before outside. The developer / publisher to have decided the game in the form to
publish. It does not matter how beautiful the game is, if I can not play it. Those who claim that this is not a shortcoming
is probably the most rated games like only by its partial aspects. "Oh, the graphics are pretty, 5 points"
If a developer or publisher to decide to make his game online fee, then has the well for
to ensure that it works. It's that simple. If you send you a soft, comfortable sweater buy
and the seller can not deliver you, because he has failed to provide enough sweaters to all customers,
Then you value this service but not as SUPER.

"If it does not you like you had better inform you and buy it not at first intended."
With the same specious argument each would defend any rip-off and any fraud.
One is also to blame, if you expect that you would expect a ready to use product for your money.
You you do not buy indeed a car that only runs when the automaker would like that and if its servers are currently running.
Or a car that you are only after the purchase in the garage until you allow the automaker to go there
and the regular stalls in the garage door because too many cars trying to get on the road.
The car may be comfortable and theoretically functional but is the manufacturer's Service
a disaster and the price absolutely not appropriate! So my CONCLUSION:

Katastophaler service failure in Sim City!
NOT NOT EVEN NO WAY BUY! Before not Kinderk *** is resolved ke with the server Aufällen!
I would have to endure both the online duty and the Origin duty still like a good enslaved consumer,
but money and no service is an absolute indictment! Sad and unfortunate.
