So what do you guys really think about it, i bought it and think Gamespot was way too harsh giving it a 5.0. The game for me so far has been great, a little hard, but great.

The game has been having problems with servers, that may be a big downside for people. But for me personally it went fine when i logged in and i don't really have an issue with it.

Thoughts?

How can other players destroy your city? Care to explain anyone?

They can tap the resources from your city with constantly needing help, but they aren't forced to give any resources though

Nope, but you can do settings when you start a world that you are able to have disasters

I know you can summon disasters to your own people. I thought they'd allow you to use it on other people as well. :P

When I play Sim City... I am the disaster! Every message I get about improving the city normally ends with me mentally assaulting the people complaining. If they hate my city so much, why do they live there?

I guess its the same way in real life. No matter how good of a mayor or politician you are there is always someone who has a complaint.

Whenever somebody complains about a residential zone being effected by something I just throw a few waste disposal yards around their houses and tell them to go live in it. "Ah, we have no water! WE NEED HELP!" Here comes a river through your house!

"Ah, we have no power!" Have a thunderstorm! I'm a mayor who controls the weather, the terrain! Everything! EVERYTHING!

Oh, I forgot what I do when they have traffic problems! I just destroy the roads and put in railroad tracks instead. See, if we had solutions like this in the real world it would be a much better place.

I wish I could, but I don't think my computer can handle sim city. One day I'll get a laptop. Then we can make our own region of happy little sims.

And rule them with an iron fist! :twisted:

It is told in legend that Giant Isopods will rise from the sea, fly to the furthest realms of the universe, and we will find a planet which will be named 'Bugbag'! Before long we will build our own empire, and you will never even know about it because you won't be able to fly out of a sea into space! True fact.

I only played a bit of Simcity 4. While it looked cool, I just didn't have the patience at the time. As for the new one, I never really cared for it. It seems that EA made a mess though.

Based on Gameplay video, the games looks cool, I am myself love playing city building games like Simcity & Cities XL. Only reason that I don't like new Simcity is online DRM. I don't think so I can play well with my crappy internet connection...
