Sounds like a neat idea. My only problem would probably be playing with jerk players.

[KigJow]

I'd love to band together with lots of others to ruin the value of various limited resources, or hoard it all.

[Te Great Skeeve]

I'm hoping we can have private economy's with friends, rather then connect to one big global market forcefully?

[Computermaster]

We must band together FP.

Only on origin

SA is already making plans. Seriously.

[gnomical]

Three major economic power blocs: SA, /v/, and FP.

Man I hope that a couple of sequels later it'll become some globe that just contains all of the user's simcities.

[G-Strogg]

This sort of makes me want to buy this just so I could contribute to an FP economy for the sole purpose of keeping the other economies down.

Ahaha no we would get shut the crap down

[Krinkels]

I must say, I really like the direction the art style has taken. That European tileset is just beautiful.

There's like a dozen SC4 players on FP. We'll just shortsell Zynga and their inevitable bot network.

Exactly

I say good luck if the game becomes successful(Which I hope it doesn't because fuck origin). Somethingawful, people with way more resources than 4chan have attempted to crash eve online's market several times now and they barely made a dent.

Wait they are? :v: haven't been in the SC thread for a while, now I have something to read when bored :v:

I wonder if the DRM is going to be extra extrusive because of the Multiplayer?

IIRC, you only need an internet connection to start the game. It's not always online.

I don't really understand why, but it's not as bad as it could be.

[Swilly]

Honestly, they're plans will fail because there are too many people who would get involved.

A lot of EVE players also play SimCity.
