Also, I don't think there will be delays because they announced the thing in 2004

Any links?

Whenever it comes out, I just hope it doesn't have useless Disasters, like SimCity 3000's Whirlpool.

I hope it feels more like the old SimCity and not the 4th game. I don't know why, but that one always spiralled down to boredom for me. Possibly because you can only improve a region so much, and then you have to set up about 15 more regions to improve your original region further.

I got Sim City 4 when it first came out, and gave up on it. Too much flaky behavior where things didn't work as they should, and not much in the way of patch support from Maxis.

I might look into Sim City 5, but not until it's been out a while and I'd first scoped out the forums to see how things stood.

No, but I found this image with the tag 'Simcity 5'. Some Maxis dev is leaking info!  



I hope this pic shows (It's my first time posting a picture  )

If it shows, tell me what you think!

As always,

Please let it work

If it doesn't, googe image simcity 5, the 2nd and 4th images are real screens

try uploading the pic here

The link is broken.

Hmmm, for those pics that failed, I followed the exact web adress, but they didn't show. Maybe the pic poster is busted

Sim city - hmmm do you get to kill aliens in sim city?

Do you get to build armies and fight wars?

Do you get to build expensive wonders like the pyramids of egypt?

If the answer is no to the above, then what is the point of it

I'd rather play Capitalism III (Or II which I have) than any Sim City. Just not enough to do except lay roads and land and piddle with city employees who complain about everything you do. You guys want a real test of metal in a business sense play Capitalism II, that's a game with real meat. My other favorite business simulation is/was Industry Giant II, but, unfortunately it doesn't work on newer video cards and that means having to play it on another system or changing out my video card everytime I feel like playing it. Tropico is also probably my favorite of favorites. I love the music and the fact that I can change the lil peoples names to what i want and watch what happens to their lives and lives of their offspring. Sim Cities though? Nah, mere childs toys.

hehehe yea probably. I have actually played sim city, and it was kinda fun but i realised i have no main goal, no big purpose to work towards (as mentioned in my previous post) so i realised it was totally pointless and lost all interest.

Guys, Simcity 5 is gonna be called SIMCITY: Societies. Also Tilted Mill is working on it. Maxis is working on that f^^^ing retarded Spore thing. Tilted Mill has simplified the game play alot. Judging by what they have said so far, there will be no zones, no water pipe, and possibly no disasters.   DAMN IT!  Also, this game is going to be like City Life (a bullshit game), which six different cultures.

I might give this one a try, but for now, it looks like Tilted Mill, who has made several city builders that have scored poor reviews, has screwed up one of the PC's greatest titles  

If you want to find out more, google Simcity Societies. Theve got previews on every major gaming site
