This is great news as I am just about to leave work and its sitting at my front door waiting for me!

you going to hurry up and install so you can sit there and wait?

Is it still down? I have the game here, not sure if I should even bother installing it yet. I'm sure it checks online shit while installing.

Did anyone create a CP city yet?

Im thinking about buying this but i just bought the arma 3 alpha last night... Any first hand accounts? Compared to sim city 4?

edit; woops my bad skipped a few posts. Still, I am fine with always online, so besides that gripe, how is the actual game?

The game doesn't look bad, but I think I'm going to just play one of the old Sim City's and let that scratch my itch. The small size of the cities looks pretty lame, and I don't want to support EA's restrictive DRM. I'll be checking this thread to see how you guys like it though, this is one of my favorite franchises.

Those textures... so good. Come on standalone DayZ!

edit: but **** this game.

I created a region called CP Village in Europe West 2.

If you want in there are 7 city locations within so give me your Origin username and we'll make it happen.

What in God's green earth made EA think this was a good idea?

And I completely ****ed over my city here from the beginning so I'm abandoning this one and we can just make a new one when the servers are working.

****in a. Can't play.

I'll probably be plugging in this weekend, so I'll join CP region.

For months SimCity's board has been filled with complaints from the diehards. This is a nightmare.

At this rate it wont be long until its 19.99 on steam~ May have to wait on this one.
