the whole bloody city is in a complete gridlock, as a result, my Metals can't ship out, fires broke out at all parts of the city while my firetruck is stuck in congestion resulting in a total wipeout of my industrial zone (its like a modern day Chicago fire), multiple homicide simultaneously occurs while my patrol cars also stuck in the jam, my kids are stupid and literally turned to crime because they are literally stuck in the jam which makes them can't go to school, and all of these is making my simoleons never increase nor decrease.

Not to mention, the whole Origin itself is rubbish. It makes the whole system lacks like shit. The amount of RAM it takes is utter bollocks. Even running Photoshop CS6 doesn't make my PC in such dreary state.

Enough is enough. Screw this game. The only thing I would ever buy from EA is their toilet paper (if they ever make one).

I personally prefer bridges too.

Seen a city with tunnels and the sims is no different than tadpoles traveling in ditches.

Agreed, but it is what almost every city has to face when it comes to traffic. Unfortunately there isn't any subways. =\.

But yeah, a game is supposed to be fun and enjoyable. If it isn't, just move on and wait for 1-2 years until a patch is out.

Also, while we're on the topic of bridges, I found this two threads that mentioned something about making bridge building much easier. I prefer the functionality of tunnels myself (real estate is golden in this game), so I didn't read too much into it. Maybe you could make use of the two threads better than I can.

Thanks, but I couldn't be bothered anymore, especially Grid 2 is only 5 days to its launch and the best of all is the pre-order steam copy has three pre-order rewards all unlocked today.

Probably will take a look after my current anger towards SC5 has cool down.

hey does anyone has a region I can join? Looking for a friendly helpful room.

can i add you to my region? whats your origin name?

what are you specialized in?

seriously.. ppl still buying and playing this?

word of advise to new and potential buyer : JUST DONT. DONT WASTE UR MONEY.. UR BETTER OFF BLOWING IT ON KFC or sth than to give it to EA

seriously.

dont say we dint warn u.. this game has so much bugs it makes any alpha and beta game looks like game of the year. aside from the bug, the game cant even save a city, after a few saves.. my city/region will automatically disappear, or on rollback forever. just plain ridiculous.
after a few month my of not playing.. my blood still boils everytime i read bout simcity lol. sad.

actually u know what guys.. anyone interested in the game.. pm me.. ill sell to u for good price..has NFS underground in the account as well

Alternatively, try Anno 2070, Sim City 4 or Tropico 4 if you want city building game. Hey, even in Tropico where you are a ruler of some Caribbean island, you are building a city that is bigger than what you get in Sim City.

ok thx will invite you next thursday cause i am outdoors right now and will return next thursday. Wait a minute, how do I add you to my region?

me too.....

My visitors always 0 and my friend is playing the city which has no road connecting to my city. How to solve it? Add a aero plane? Mass transit's bus can?

Shit, I cannot seem to log in to Origin!!! Can someone help me with this frickin problem?

Planes bring in only medium and high wealth people only. no way can bus work if you're not connected through road. and yes, there's no way (yet) for you to change the roads interconnect.

hey do you know how to solve this "you must be online when logging in for the first time" problem?
