They make it really difficult to play the game with just one city. Nearly impossible. Have to trade, even if it is with yourself (you can have multiple cities within region)

let's make this one the practice (for me at least) and then boss one huge region with everyone and wild out.

There is a tool to download at simcity. Com that will tell you if your computer sucks d's.

Man. I own all of those games except Bejeweled 3.

steve dave, we've unlocked the international airport. Now get tons of metal, crude oil, and alloy. Also need 1 million simoleons.

[steve dave]

Saul, bad news. I hate my city. I tried to get into too many things. Tourism, trade, electronics, you name it really. Long story short I'm abandoning this POS and starting over.

[steve dave]

Also, knowing me, which of those free games is best?

[Saulbadguy]

Yep, gotta specialize. I have almost zero industrial now.

[star seed 7]

made an electronics city last night, got up to 5 million a day trade profit from 4 consumer electronics factories, seems like that's the easiest specialization.

i've had no luck with gambling, but i've also read that tourists are bugged so you basically have to give them no other option but to go directly to your casinos.

traffic patch is supposed to be coming soon, where cars will find a different route when the road they want hits 50-75 percent capacity or something.  i tried something last night that instead stead of 4 way traffic grids, i staggered my blocks and only had 3 way stops at the end of each block, it helped traffic a bunch.

saul, can we just start a new region. This time it will be the for real one and not practice.

[ChiComCat]

If there is a big region with a good tourist spot, that would be my pick.  I've been practicing for gambling/tourism

the region we are currently using is big and has prolly great ones. the problem is I've basically ruined one of the citys.  maybe I'll turn it into the dirty pollution capital of the region and just take all our garbage or something.

WHAT

I have the Willis tower!! I'm a tourist hot spot.

Also I think you started your city too far away from mine in the region. It always said there was no connection available between our cities. Therefore we couldn't share anything.

[steve dave]

See, this region is ruined.

[OK_Cat]

somebody give me a link where i can download this simcity game for free

i took friday off to watch the cats, i can simcity the rest of the day.   

[Saulbadguy]

well, ok. My last city (that had willis tower plopped, 200k+ population and loads of cash), was a practice city
