SimCity 5

[JWR3232]

I tried everything you guys said still no change in my fps. But I guess I'll wait and see what happens with the final product. I'm not to concerned with the beta performance. I was not using the new beta drivers I'm assuming that was the issue but that's moot now as new drivers came out today.

Few more days.
Really interested in seeing how the whole MP stuff works.

Re: SimCity 5

Congratulations! You have been selected to take part in an exclusive Closed Beta for SimCity, which will be available in stores and through Origin next week. In preparation for launch, we are stress testing our servers and could use your help. Unlike our previous Closed Betas which locked out certain content, you will be able to play the full game!
This Closed Beta will run from 5:00 PM (PST) to 9:00 PM (PST) on Wednesday, February 27. We have condensed the amount of time in this test to encourage as many players as possible to log in and push our servers as hard as possible. We will be sending you a unique redemption code that day which will grant you access to the Closed Beta. Don't miss this great opportunity to test and play the game. Thanks in advance for your help!
Sincerely,
Maxis

Lol...
When I got the beta key I had (I think) 2 days.
By the time I got off work and downloaded it later.. the beta was over.

Between running on Origin and being online only I am passing on this for the time being.

Placed my order yesterday. Can't wait for Tuesday.

What are the odds the servers crash on Tuesday? I'm thinking 80% they crash at some point.

I'd say they are in for a miserable week, will be presently surprised otherwise.

Think I might take Amazon's deal and just keep it wrapped until the reviews start coming in. I loved the series up to 3k, but like many people am weary of the always online and multiplayer requirements.

Re: SimCity 5

I'm ready to play!
Can't wait until I get off this end of the week and have release days off...
I'm sure I'll play some and get a bit less sleep this week for work...

Can't remember where I seen it but there was a countdown and it ended at Midnight so I'm assuming you can play then. I will be at work so

Here is a link confirming Simcity could certainly have bigger cities: http://www.pcgamer.com/2013/03/01/si...ty-size-maxis/

This gives me hope. I understand the need for the limited city sizes at launch but let us nerds who own ridiculous PCs take advantage of them! I have a very bad feeling this game is going to consume my all of my free time...

Yeah I seen where they said there will be bigger cities updates down the road. I'm fine with the size of them right now though. However I'm sure once I get all the ins/outs down I'll be ready for bigger play room
