Yakattak posted:at least the elevator ai was smarter than traffic ai in sim city this is bc sim tower was developed originally as a skyscraper elevator scheduling simulator and then the guy was like "this is kinda fun building a tower actually" it explains why the elevators had such ridiculously spergy detail when other stuff like hotel rooms and offices all you could do was set the price

lol if you didn't get the cathedral on the top also the thing that bugged me the most was just that you couldn't build two towers side by side. there's tons of space, why can't i have a commercial tower and a condo tower connected by, say, an underground passageway past the recycling center

Fax Sender posted:i think you could build one common base and then build multiple 'towers' on top of that but i think that also would turn all the people in the tower red pretty easily nah...you could build one big base and then only build the tower up on half of it, but as soon as you put a block in on the other side of the base it would fill all the space in between with empty floors.

i remember the first time i got to 60,000 people in simcity 2000 and got the military base reward. i was so excited to get a cool air base and have the fighter jets. but then apparently i didn't have enough free land so they gave me a missile silo instead. i was 7 or 8 years old and i literally cried

~Coxy posted:i never "got" the weirdo games like simearth and simisle simearth makes sense more when you're older. as a kid it's not really fun. i didn't like it. picked it up later in college and found it entertaining for a while. simisle never made any sense to me at all and i had no idea who would find it fun, turns out it's basically simresourceexploitation so i'm ok with that

i would pay full new game price right now for a simant remake that was basically "all the bugs and worms and poo poo that live in your yard: the simulation" cause that would be both really fun and really educational and cool.

"dialup" could be one of many possible speeds you know. in 1995 most people probably had a 14.4 modem or maybe a 28.8 if they were ballin, 56k wasn't around until 98 or so

i had no problem with streets vs. roads or two sizes of police station because these are actually things that have to be dealt with and balanced in real cities the thing that ruined sc4 was that it STILL doesn't run well once you get more than maybe 30,000 people, ten loving years after the game came out. other than that it's a great game.

A Wheezy Steampunk posted:but that doesn't make a fun game I'm not seeing how it makes the game any less fun actually it's a simulation game. would you say that a flight simulator is less fun if it requires you to hit the right speeds and set your flaps properly on landing than if you can just point the plane at the ground and press forwards?

SO DEMANDING posted:simcity4 performance protip: set it to software rendering mode well yeah, but because the solution to sc4's performance problems is "prevent it from using 3/4 of your cpu and 100% of your massively powerful video card" even a modern processor will choke and die when your city gets past a certain size.
