So I've had this game about a month or two, and everything's been fine. Now though, suddenly, it won't launch anymore. I looked up the issue online, and it turns out this has been a problem for players ever since the game was released more than a year ago.
So if you're thinking about buying SimCity, my advice is DON'T.
I'm so ticked off.

Eventually there will be, I'm sure, but....

Honestly, with this game, EXPECT that this will happen again. Probably many times.

EA's greed utterly killed this game.... it didnt hit even 5% of the potential that it had, as a SimCity game, made by freaking Maxis of all people. It's buggy, slow, unbalanced, and has so very few features and things in it compared to..... anything else. Seriously, it's TERRIBLE. And the developers seriously just dont care. It's just not Maxis anymore.

I bought the horrid thing right when it came out. I'd been a fan of the SimCity series since the original one hit the SNES a bazillion years ago. The series was excellent. ....until this one. Few releases have bothered me more than this one did. Just... ugh.

Horrible.

For SimCity, do specify what release.

It's not like there's just one. :wink:

It's the most recent one.

Aside from the fact that it's the only game in the series anyone seems to ever talk about now, he also mentioned it's release date, which was a year ago I think.

Wheras Simcity 4 before it came out about a billionty years ago.


....not to mention that 4 and it's predecessors arent known for being buggy.... but 5 sure is. If a SimCity game is crashing or going nuts, it's probably 5.
