over/under on madara/Hashi disabling their family next week like a pair of bosses?

Are you or anyone actually playing atm?

Having your bank cancel a payment to origin is not 'asking for a refund' and I'm not surprised that origin's policy is to ban people who do that because I bet most people who do that are trying to defraud the seller.

See I think that's the root of our disagreement. She nails everything about the role except being a convincing master fighter. She really is spectacularly able in arms, but she's just so gaunt that it doesn't work for me. And I bet there's more to Conan Stevens leaving GoT than playing a...

Good news: Simcity is a great buy flawed city building sim. We'll see if Maxis/EA will remove some of those flaws. The server shit is just a matter of time and by next week it'll probably be fine. The real question is whether the traffic and other more challenging problems will be resolved.

Yeah, there's been about 10 professional reviews on metacritic since right as the game came out. It's a weird situation. Online only games have typically been MMOs and it makes sense to put off giving your score for weeks because of the amount of content. That naturally gives some buffer for...

Seems pretty trivial to just have hard-coded rates at which you buy/sell resources like every other game ever. I have to imagine the market fluctuations won't be that sharp even if it settles at 50% away from a guessed hardcoded value.

650k is huge. A typical successful city made by someone will likely get around 200k. The theoritical max is probably around 1mill. The things that limit it are: 1. how much residential zones you can have (vs roads, commercial, industrial, services, misc buildings and empty/unusable land) 2...

Guy makes a 650k pop city. With one road http://www.reddit.com/r/SimCity/comm...one_road_city/ http://imgur.com/a/gVKs3 I guess he set the tax rate to 0% to encourage growth, but the fact that everything isn't one huge logjam is impressive. I'll have to add this to the things to try...

Dana White's response was funny (Do more than beat up two people with no fights and then come talk to me). I have to imagine that a convincingly mtf transgender fighter becoming world class would be a nightmare for wmma. On one hand if they look like a woman and have similar testosterone levels...

I imagine it's more nuanced than that, because if you can play offline for extended periods the servers shouldn't be handling a much greater load at cheetah speed. Unless of course the client does less processing when it has a good connection to the server (Which would be a fucking nightmare)...

wtf. Am I the only one who plays in cheetah speed 80% of the time? I think once we figure out the puzzle that is SimCity's traffic we might go to doublewide plots, but I think for now it's out of our reach.

I think I'm in the middle of you two. I'd say, "If you're young and dumb and have no financial means be very careful about getting married noob." "If you don't have a lot of money and want to get married, either wait until you have more money or drop your hopes of a big...

Yeah I'm wondering how long it'll be before they start sellign dlc that offers functional content that goes beyond what's available currently. Ex: "Non retarded bus drivers".

What do you mean by distracting? What about her character's physical state is not supposed to be distracting?

The way you fix things is by making a new city, lol. Which usually the EA servers take care of for you. I think I was forced to remake my city 7 times last night.

Somebody made a city that almost entirely uses public transportation: http://www.reddit.com/r/SimCity/comm...ion_98_public/ m8 there's no room, we're going to have to push back the EU/UK release date a month. just kidding!

Yeah I think I'll need 2 or three connections like that. Have you used much dirt roads for the avenues? Some people are using them and like them because they let cars get onto/off of avenues but don't cause intersections. It's not intuitive but from what I've seen there's no acceleration on cars...

Who here hates Brienne? I like her okay but I guess I have a problem with her physically. A good 'female who competes with men' would have to be much more stout or something. A tall and lanky woman has no place wearing armor and swinging a sword. I feel like she and the actor who now plays the...

Intropy I replicated your road-path last night. I'm really apprehensive about making a loop with the avenues vs multiple straight avenues that go through the city. What happened to me is that the intersection of one of my med-density roads wit hthe avenue caused a perpetual traffic jam with...

they had some kind of Q&A right after ME3's release and it was a real letdown. Hopefully someone righteously busts his balls and asks him how it feels to fuck up mass effect 3.

intropy thanks for posting that, elucidated a few unintuitive things.

Bro are you new here? There's no mistakes being made. And in case anyone gets confused I didn't make the city in that screenshot.

Comes into ME3 thread Bitches about people talking about ME3

Intropy let's see some screenshots of your master cities.

I thought of a better metaphor, it's like when a battered girlfriend tries to complain to you about her latest beating.

No. I'm saying that you can feel free to bitch about fire being hot (And you rightfully should, I've been telling everyone I know how unnecessarily shitty simcity's launch is), but don't be surprised that when you stick your hand in the fire you get burned. And yes, week 1 of major online...

Hey if you want to deal with getting a refund then go ahead. I just feel like anyone surprised by simcity's release must be new to gaming or really confused.

Yeah it should be trivial to cheat in this game. Really makes me wonder what the point of those first to 2.5m pop achievement competitions are. I have to imagine it's not a real competition but just a thing-to-do.

Another good thing I learned is that the client is able to do most of the city simulation stuff. I'm sure most of the city to city interaction is serverside, but that's much less complex and more easily re-created than bus pathing or RCI demand creation, for example. That means that it'll be...

It just seems like an example of an ambitious developer team trying to create a novel feature in a game and not being able to make it perfect. Personally I'd prefer if they made the traffic simulation more abstract like it is in previous simcity games, but I can appreciate the attempt to do...

http://www.reddit.com/r/SimCity/comm...ht_rail_works/ tldr: Don't build intersections for your street cars. build straights paths or snake it around like this: Also buses seem to group together in ineffective packs:

Show us an example of a region. Most regions with city blocks not connected via road are connected via water or something.

Fake refunds is pretty bad, but I can't imagine getting frustrated enough with the shitty server/game support and then go try to deal with EA support to get a refund, lol. One good thing about buying from Amazon is that they've usually been pretty good about giving out refunds. And part of me...
