So oceanic is full. I'm probably going to ditch the last map since my town(s) are getting nuked and since no one can even join us now. Good job EA.

But I have recovered ur town and named it Fallout Town lol

It seems once you switch servers out of a full one you can't go back... Yet another wonderful feature from EA...

[Munki]

So beyond the fundamental flaws with the AI and path finding or the simple fact that following a sim around is pointless, the game in the first few hours is fun. The more complex a city gets however it turns into this insanely frustrating experience. Over looking that, the way it's designed is absolutely horrible, forget that it's an online all the time game (i'm fine with that) but imagine if you played an mmo when as soon as you switch servers all your progress gets erased along with all your stuff and characters, that's basically simcity. Leave a server and try to go back after it's full, you can't. Run the sim for 20 minutes, fall into some server glitch and loose that 20 minutes. It's pretty frustrating and it's sad too, since at it's core the gameplay is pretty fun and i've been looking forward to it for awhile.

I'm now on north american west 4 server, I won't be switching again... Basically EVERYTHING (including achievements) gets wiped went you switch. Nice cloud service eh?

This game is starting to sound less and less appealing.

Back to basics, play the Micropolis instead (SimCity Classic free alternative in Java).

I saw that numb! Still AAA titles as screwy as simcity is now are still pretty fun.

If you want to be on our map, you need to be on north american west 4 and get an invite.
