Have SimCity server woes and need help?

brilliant video

Am so thankful that my copy is in the mail and I haven't had to deal with the frustration of all the bugs. Yet.

Im glad i never bought this , and to all the people who are saying " stop moaning and wait" let me ask you a question :

would you buy a Car with no brakes on the understanding that they may get put there in a few days ?

what about a monitor with no actual screen just all the circuits and frame on the understanding that they "may" ship the screen to you in a few days ??

what about a keyboard that is missing half the keys ???

I can't speak for the rest of the world but when i buy something it either works 100% or it goes back and i get a refund and go and buy something that really does work, why should games be any different ? and to be honest its all the people that dont let the companies know its not acceptable that are mostly to blame for sub-standard games being released time after time. if EVERYONE demanded their money back from broken games , games companies would think twice before doing it again after their stocks dropped the MD was fired and they nearly hit administration.

sign the petition where many of us want to put an end to the always online DRM requirement..

Nice spit bubble.. Mmmm!

that train actually part of latest SimCity? I was under the impression other places around the net frieght trains were/are not included just yet... If indeed part of the sim eventually I may indeed look into purchase down the road once things calm down hopefully largest share of bugs worked out by then.. Not a fan of online all the time, would be nice at the very least have a game rollback feature on our PCs as a safety net should we loose connection, bugs, & or a change of plans while building a city without having to start from scratch again. Anyways I enjoyed this video brightened my snowy morning here in Vt.

i have never wanted to hug seb more in my life lol

Good job EA, you did more damage to this game than pirates could ever do.

Always hated Origin. From my account being hacked by Russians (true story, go for passwords more than 8 chars regardless of complexity) to really lousy interfaces (BF3/MoH Origin->Web Browser->Game .. crash anyone??).

Now a new reason to hate Origin. Lack of capacity to handle always online connectivity and DRM.

Funny how they are always more than willing to give 15% discount for the NEXT game which I will apparently reluctantly buy. It's like admitting your mistakes, then trying to bribe someone to keep shut.

L ... O ... L

Thank you for this... it actually made me smile about it all.

@queuing_for_PS4 How long was PSN down for last year? Back under your bridge with you.

Yet another BAFTA-worthy performance from Seb Ford.

these server issies may actualy be a good thing... its getting rid of all the moaners ha ha

SimCity barely just got released, and it has issues. Fair enough, we're all human afterall. Aslong as the issue gets sorted out quickly and I get a regular update on the sitiuation I am happy. I simply do not understand why everyone else swear never to purchase an EA product again, nor do I understand that everyone suddenly wants a refund, due to an issue that -will- be solved, quickly as well.

Try to be positive, show a little patience and stop whining. Nobody likes whiners. I like EA's marketing better than whiners. Nuff said.

Have a lovely evening though!

Has EA died and had itself buried in the Pet Cematery, is that it?

Here's EA's customer service, courtesy of imgur. The chat is between EA's customer service and some guy.

Haha, nice video. What a big waste, Simcrapy

Huh?!

Always online single player game has a teriible launch, like that's never happened before.

Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it!

@queuing_for_PS4 LOL you cant even decently play a strategy game on a console

@queuing_for_PS4 Nahh you just need to know where to look for life. Some gluttinous greedy bloated giants - and crappy business models/decisions might be on a fast track to the grave - but if this does come to pass it is a good thing. It makes the environment much more fit and beneficial for all.

Thisisabigthingright nowsoconfusedbywhat happensnext?

HA HA this video would have been perfect if it ended with a pic of seb and then the message!

Gamespot ridiculing its users, guess its fair though. EA spews out this poop and these stupid gamers proceed to buy. LOL!

Most anticipated game turns out to be a barely functioning mediocre minisimcity game...

Go gamespot!!!

nice vid man!

Thiswas aRevolution?

Now this is why I love Gamespot, I hope the 'review' is cut from the same cloth.

Death EA and MAXSI

HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA

Don't worry ,pirates will fix that for you....

This is pathetic.
