@mlcarter815 @eFLASH I agree with you on that, CitiesXL missed many things I really love in SimCity but as I understand, EA managed to ruin it in this one :(

Very disappointing.. I planned to purchase it but waited few days to see the reviews, good that I did so. Unless it will change and become a decent game, i.e. size of map should be much larger as I understand (check CitiesXL to understand what size means!!), game should be an offline game (I don't care about connecting to the internet at start but game should run on my machine!) and.. last but not least, the price is way to high for a game I am sure they already work on DLC for it (and many to come which will suck all your money!)
