Cities XL 2011

Has anyone seen a singlre review for this? It looks nice, but after reading how awful the last one that Monte Cristo released I'm a bit wary.

I know it's been taken on by new developers, but not being able to find any reviews makes me think they are trying to hide how bad it still is.

Have they added disasters yet? No fun building a city if you can't spend an hour destroying it afterwards

Well, it cant be implemented any worse than the previous release.

The main city building engine had a lot of promise so I just hope the new devs make the most of it. If at worst they come up with nothing more than a Sim City 4 refresh, then it will be a success IMO.

Playing now, no problems, feels better but yet to find what is new.

why would they make another when the last one died due to know one playing it?

the online bit died, not the city creator local

Where did you order from?

I keeping my eye on this game. If it gets solid reviews I will probably get. No new SimCity in sight...

Straight of the CitiesXL site, if you are previous cities owner you can get the new version with discount.

got the original in the midweek madness a couple of weeks ago, and the new one for half price. total for both games: £18

I like the new one, miles better than the previous, but it still needs a LOt of polish. Although they did patch an snnoying steam bug within 3 days of release, the devs have been strangely quiet on what patches are coming when (if at all...).
