SimCity V: EU, USA? Nope, Antarctica!

[Helvetica]

Anyone wanna dish out an invite? I'm lupeFuria on Origin.

[FunnyGamer]

I was just charged a second time for both the simcity pre-order and my pre-order for the upgrade to digital deluxe edition, and I've only just now discovered that I've bought the upgrade twice. Apparently Origin isn't very good with handling pre-orders, and it also doesn't tell you if you've already preordered/purchased something.
To clarify, this means that I now have two duplicate charges that shouldn't even be there, and a charge that is there because origin doesn't tell you when you already have something before you go to purchase it.

Bright Shores. Fifteen thousand residents, and about half are criminals.

What causes a casino to lose profit?

[Enth]

EnthDegree on Origin.

I would appreciate an invite any Facepunch region.

[QUOTE=Lucinice;39894673]What causes a casino to lose profit?[/QUOTE]

No visitors.

The "Loss" you see in the red, when you click on it, is just a daily summary.
It's just subtracts "cost/hr" from "Revenue/hr" 24 times per day, then you get a report.

So, once again, no visitors (tourists).

How do you get freight trains to show up?

That picture was submitted by the mayor of South Korea. My approval rating is nearly 108%.

The Expocenter feels like a cheat. Pay about 50k, get back about 200k in maybe 5 minutes guaranteed.

How to infinite monies:

Buy processor plant and dedicated trade depot for plant.
Buy all the extra assembly line add-ons
Import plastic and alloy from global market
Sell your processors on the global market

You are now raking in 500k a day

Add recycling, then your local plastics and alloys can be retrieved while also lowering trash output. Sell the metal collected. FREE MONEY $$$

[QUOTE=T2L_Goose;39894756]How do you get freight trains to show up?[/QUOTE]

You need a trade port with a train depot module. Then they'll show up every so often. Mine only seem to transport oil but it will add a new train car for every storage depot module you have. Cargo ships are the same but they only transport huge amounts of one resource a trip.

Tha fuck is that plane doing all the way over there too?

[elite3444]

So Glorious North Korea is requiring almost 3 nuclear power plants, 5 water storages, and I have a high demand for everything. I hit 237k people and now it's slowly collapsing but atleast I have like 2mil simoleons as backup.

[wulfe8857]

So, is it actually possible to make money by giving services to neighboring cities? It says you can in the description of certain ploppables, such as ambulance garages, but I can't seem to find a way to make money. I know how to volunteer them, though.

[striker453]

the day they fix traffic ai is the happiest day of my life (not really)
every dam service travels in herds and make the most redundant u-turns at intersections

[PieClock]

Casinos are so god damn difficult to keep in the positive, especially the higher tier ones. Anyone got any tips?

I managed to get one sort of going at +10k a day by keeping expo events running beside the casino and throwing in a bunch of hotels so people stay overnight. There's gotta be a better way though.

[Webby2020]

Soooo

This game is shittily made
Always online DRM failed horribly
City sizes are the size of a small neighborhood

Oh wow. I guess I'm lucky to have even got my higher tier casino in the positive then.

Wow great analisis 10/10 you should get hired by IGN

[sp]their reviews are no different in depth, only that they're always positive as long as there's pay[/sp]

[Webby2020]

I'm not gonna sit here and deeply analyze a game I won't own because its a fucked up game.

Those are all the reasons I've heard in the past few days why NOT to buy the game.

[Archival]

I disagree that the game was shittily made, if it weren't for the drm and the few bugs it would've been a pretty good release, the fact that all the vehicles and people actualy go around doing things and are their own object instance was pretty damn cool to me considering all other sim city games just had representations based of calculations.

[editline]13th March 2013[/editline]

Wait so you put all that and you havent even played the game?

You do not own/have played the game.

[Webby2020]

No, I'm not:

1. Having a differing opinion isn't trolling

2. Citing reasons for having said opinion, see item #1.

3. Defending myself from a dude who is using a shitty fallacy to discredit me, is not trolling.
