SimCity V (2013) - screens/artwork and information

Are the other ocuk regions ending up with cities people don't play?
It's god damn annoying when all my neighbours stopped bothering with their cities....

Maybe we need an OCUK map only for serious players that don;t give up after 1 day?
 
also i remember someone saying you need the times the same to send money to new cities but that isnt true. if you stay on the gift tab you'll see someone walk slowly from the recieving city to the giving city and back again. you need to stay on the gifting city until this is done. then some few hours later you should recieve your money when you log onto your new city

I took over a city on one of the servers :D, to say it had been ran in to the ground is an understatement :(, there is NOTHING I can do.

I agree! Would be good to get a proper region going :cool:
 
my big ben is making 68k a day, gambling 150k+ aq day but yet im failing to see all this profit?

i was happy in +3k an hour then all of a sudden its dropped to -15k

My glorious city and 1mil in the bank making like 120k a day LOL (would be near 200k but the entrance to my city is roadblocked)

I'd love a map with serious players :(

It's not so much that. There's no way to start again, once your heavily in the minus. There pretty much sweet FA you can do other than abadoned it. On my third plot on one server. Making a nice profit ~5k a day. But I don't understand density yet, still got less than 1k population and they have huge mansions. How do you get sky scrapers, or at least density up. Happiness is there and land value is sky high due to parks.

might be a stupid question but have you upgraded all your roads and have commercial around too?
 
I'm on eu west 6

actually i think that guy didn't wipe his city but the other ones connected to me don't appear to have been played for ages.

I just gifted them all 50k-100k in the hopes they or someone else sorts that crap out.

you need wide roads + happiness mainly I think

land wealth just changes the type of people that live there

Btw I'm making all my money from recycling and turning it into alloy that gets sold from my trade depot (you can turn it into metals or plastics aswell) it cuts down on regular garbage massively as well

You say quit after 1 day, not everyone can be on every day. I managed to play 3 hours yesterday, managed an hour today. Probably will not get time to play until tuesday night. I have a LOT of work on!

Where are all these train depots they mention? I have loads of WE WANT A FERRY! I bloody have one, not my fault if you do not bloody use it.

I miss the ordinances etc. This is so simplified there is not a lot to learn. I had problems making decent money in SC4, now I cannot spend it enough.
 
Any tips for making casinos profitable? I would like to set up a little casino region. I have put a bus stop there, a commericial zone, some parks, and a police station nearby for the crime spikes but its sitting at -$5000 per day :(
 
just bought using the Indian method, well chuffed. i think £44.99 is way too overpriced for this game.

as soon as i got the confirmation email, i logged back in to Origin and started downloading and installing.

what server is OcUK on or the most populated?

They clearly aren't coming back

If anyone wants to start a region for players dedicated to sticking it out with their cities then count me in (dedicated doesn't mean no lifers, as long as you play atleast 1-2 hours a day and won't just give up, we could help each other out with gifts and communicate needs
