    Very high. But like all online games the emulation will be incomplete. However for simcity because the amount of information the server needs to provide is so minimal you could easily have reasonable gameplay with a very dumb server. Really the big question is how much effort modding groups will...

    I take back what I said. The simulation isn't as rigorous as I thought: http://answers.ea.com/t5/Miscellaneo...737060#U737060 If this is all true than the simulation is only there to give an illusion of being and ownership. I was under the impression that the city modeled the 100,000 sims and...

    SimCity really is a magnificent and ambitious game. The platform is all there it just needs to be fixed and tweaked. Right now it's at beta level and they really shouldn't have released it for a few months.

    Iron Man 3 [Spoilers Everywhere]

    Ah, ok. Yeah I guess I don't really care that much about the difference between *hand waving* science-so-great-its-magic and *hand waving* magic. It'd be different if they had an explanation scene describing how Odin has so many midichlorians that he's the only person who can do anything of...

    Basically, lol. Once they fix the bugs they need to insert a hard mode that does a variety of things, but also makes your city more RCI dependent and makes the RCI very region dependent. As it is now I'm pretty sure we could make 15 residential only cities in a region and the 16th one could be...

    What's funny is that without all the bugs I'd probably quit this game already from how trivial it would be.

    To give it longevity they need to: A: balance the trading portion B: fix all the broken features and either 1: Adjust the region/city sizes such that you really can have massive cities. 2: Make it competitive and e-sport enough that people are motivated to figure out ways to eek out as...

    Great video for intermediate/advanced users showing how to build a populated, independent city without traffic: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qV6PrEjaH8Q I'll have to try balancing shit better in the future like this video shows to prevent people from even using the entry/exit of the city...

    sitting on your ass > getting hurt in combat

    well I guess I don't know shit about medals then. After looking at it more I changed my opinion to what most people are saying. It's fine having a medal for this dumb shit but don't put it above real medals. Put it just below "Good Conduct" medals, haha...

    North Korea goes full retard

    One thing that makes it hard is that it'd be impossible to conduct an interview with a typical NK citizen where they feel comfortable the interview won't be visible to their great leader.

    sitting on your ass > getting hurt in combat

    I love drones, work in robotics and sit on my ass all day and I think getting a medal for operating UAVs or do anything but heroic action in dangerous circumstances is bullshit. Is there anyone out there who thinks that exemplary teleoperation deserves a medal?

    In the original UFCs almost everything was legal but very few groin shots happened, why that was can be debated but I don't think it'd be super common. Yeah exactly.

    this screenshot is bullshit fyi. It's comparing SC4's region with SC5's city. And a city in SC5 is definitely smaller than that square. also some more traffic tips: http://www.reddit.com/r/SimCity/comm...rom_developer/ Traffic Pathing Algorithm IndeedOk, now take your road network, and...

    MMA Thread

    Haha sorry. I love the fine sport of MMA, it's just sometimes I see typical techniques that leave the groin unprotected or other areas and I get the same feeling I get when boxers leave themselves open for leg kicks, or kickboxers leave themselves open for takedowns or wreslters leave...

    Thought of a layout strategy: The red is avenue, the start point is the center bottom avenue. Blue are streets. There's a half city stretch for the entry way that exits into the center. my hope is that alleviates the bottleneck caused by having one entry way and splits the traffic better...

    And just think, every vehicle has the same issues with pathing which is the root cause of why you have so much traffic. Busses are even worse because not only are the destinations goofy, but the paths to those destinations are bad too. And honestly if they didn't fix pathing yet I don't think...

    SimCity

    Yeah I'm forced to disagree. If you're on the fence or don't want to play immediately it's better to wait. Virtually every aspect of the game is bugged in some small way or will likely be improved later. The developers were extremely ambitious with the scope of the simulations and weren't able...

    Has anyone found the deluxe bullshit tiles useful at all? Some people are saying that if you bitch to EA they'll give those tiles to your account. Frankly I think it'd be best if everyone avoided useless tiles so that we can claim each other's cities without issue, lol.
