Used this one, but there was also one on Massively earlier. ...I just got this one first. - CaesarsGhost Lead Gameplay and Gameworld Designer for a yet unnamed MMO Title. "When people tell me designing a game is easy, I try to get them to design a board game. Most people don't last 5 minutes, the rest rarely last more then a day. The final few realize it's neither fun nor easy."

themilton Novice Member Joined: 5/05/07 Posts: 349	4/17/09 2:22:19 PM#6 Report this post Explain why you are reporting this post: (750 characters max.) I'm intrigued. The original SimCity was my first "real" computer game. I tried a couple of the later editions but none had quite the magic of the first. I'm specifically curious about the pacing of the game: Can I log in and let it run in the background while I go about other business, or do I have to give it my undivided attention? Sims was a little too much of an attention-whore for my tastes. Also, does anything happen with/to your city while you're offline? Bah, I wish I 1) weren't at work and 2) weren't going out of town this weekend. ------------- The less you expect, the more you'll be surprised. Hopefully, pleasantly so.

I remember hearing stuff along the lines of: Single player everything you'd expect along with adjustable time, cheats, or whatever. Online "slow time" even when you're not online, economic bonuses, social networking tools(big part), and similar. I find it amazing the developers who have never even been in a fist fight, or designing fighting mechanics.

Game seems very refreshing from our usual combat games. I think this and the one NASA is putting out, might turn out to be great alternatives. ----------------------- Tried- L2, Ryzom, WAR, DDO, PWI, Tab Rasa, Requiem, Champs, AA Played- SWG (pre-cu), AoC, VG, WoW, LoTRO,CoX, EQ2, DAOC, GW, PotBS Playing- EVE, Jade Dynasty, RoM, Aion, SUN Waiting for- MO, Tera, APB, TOR, DCO, Jumpgate Evo, Black Prophecy, Dawntide, Cities XL, WH40K, WWE, Alganon, NASA -- -- "Hey, if Activision liked it, then they should have put a ring on it," Double Fine President Tim Schafer said.

Perhaps you should add a note that the beta seams to be full since the beta-app page no longer are available? ***************************** I have nothing clever to say.
