Sim City 5

[Infinity]

I have opened a Region on Europe West 4, did not notice any problems there yet. My Origin-Nick is saftfrucht23, feel free to contact me and join into my game or let me invite you.

On a sidenote, I have high residential demand but at the same time people leaving because they have no jobs - is that even logical?

[swiftus27]

There are three types of people... poor, middle class, and rich.   You're not going to get the rich people to clean garbage and similarly can't get the poor to be able to keep high tech factories operational.     Monitor your residential demand. 

[Infinity]

Hm... I am specializing in Electronics, just built the Processor Factory and already have a lot of Tech 3 Factories. I guess I have to improve land value to get the poor out and more rich in? But then, they are already complaining about high rents. I should take a closer look to the stats maybe.

[swiftus27]

lower taxes and builds tons of $$$ parks.

I am seriously having issues keeping high tech factories fully staffed despite having 2x libraries, a community college, a university, 2x grade school and a high school....

Lowering taxes sucks, I need cash to build the recycling facility :p

[swiftus27]

that thing actually makes you a lot of money... just make sure you have room in your supply depot.

Guys stop it LOL.

When I hear the game is working I want it so bad, then when I hear it sucking it makes me glad I didn't buy it 

[Dasha]

It's like a girlfriend or a wife.. or a boyfriend...

When it's not doing as you say you hate it but once she listens.... she's brilliant

[alexgv1]

Resisted making below the belt comment involving girlfriend and sucking...

It actually does work now. I was shocked too.

playing on west 1 and 2 now.... depend which server is actually working!

[Infinity]

And gone again. City deleted with the crash. Thanks. I forgot that, totally unexpected for EA, the weekend is beginning.

[Dasha]

When everything calms down a bit... we should try to get together in a region on a server.. not sure if Swiftus still has that area he mentioned earlier...

[swiftus27]

We need to get on one server for that one

[Dasha]

Ye hence the 'once things calm down'. I can't even login to available servers so no point trying to get together yet. Hope they'll get an offline version soon. This is just sheer arogance by EA... they've just given millions of players the finger.

[swiftus27]

Hence why I sold 50 shares of their stock today. 

[swiftus27]

so far so good today....   Been making a gambling city... I will say that you really need the region's help...

Can someone start a Private Region today?      I will join in and build a 'ville. 

[Infinity]

Well if it's okay I will start a new private region for AWS around 5-6 p.m. UTC+1.
The most important thing is for us to decide on a server. Thoughts?

[Dasha]

They seem to be fairly stable today so I don't mind. Got you on Origin friends I believe so just invite me once you made it

[Infinity]

Okay, I created a region called AirwaySim on US West 4. You need to login on that server for me to invite you, as I can't see you otherwise.
Add me at origin (saftfrucht23) and hit me up when you are on US West 4.
