But Destinations is even worse value for what it adds. Societies still doesn’t compare to the orchestrated intricacy of SimCity 2000, and that still isn’t good enough. That price for just Societies, on the other hand, gets easier to justify with each update.
SIMCITY SOCIETIES PLUS
At the price, plus the money you’ll spend for the core game, Destinations is hard to recommend. If you want a challenge, it’s there aplenty. The Strategic game mode needs a lot more balancing – something I suspect will happen in the next update. Getting anyone at all to visit your landswill takea few hours ofwork. The original Creative game mode, now sprinkled with Destinations’ tourism and the numerous improvements makes for a more distracting (if still overly easy) time. As your tradition adjustments, Particular Sims will seem and have an effect on your game in shocking methods, for each good and unhealthy. Modify the energies at your whim to get the type of look you need, from Cyberpunk to Romantic to Haunted and lots of extra. Create an artistic society or a police state, an industrial city or a spiritual community-or any. SimCity Societies Deluxe Edition Pre-Put in Game. Make your cities green or polluted, contemporary or futuristic, rural or urban. Why not?! And the engine still can’t cope with its own game, staggering with a medium-size city. Featuring an all-new, revolutionary feature set, SimCity Societies allows you to create your own kinds of cities and shape their cultures and environments. A city built almost entirely of Venues can have enraged citizens rioting because they can’t find anywhere to visit. And worst of all, the feedback makes little sense. A UFO crash site can still replace a school. Need more Spirituality? Stick a dozen shrines in the bottom left of the map, miles from anything, and the points are still yours.
SIMCITY SOCIETIES PC
As an amusing aside, EA, in the fall of 2008, bundled the original SC:S and Destinations along with SC4 on a single disk that sold for the same price as SC4, which remains among the top-selling PC games years after its release, sold for previously.What don’t we like? The most ridiculous part of Societies is still the ability to spam the map with various Decorations to increase points in various required categories. The company also developed an expansion pack: SC:S Destinations, which was so lame EA elected to not even distribute it on a disk. Since the game's release, TM has tried futilely to make it work, posting five "patches" as of January, 2009. SC:S was greeted with almost universal revulsion, if not nausea and vomiting, by the SimCity community, which quickly filled the TM SimCity:Societies forums with complaints. Its sales were dismal, and EA very quickly began treating it like a red-headed stepchild.
SC:S, aside from being unplayable for more than a few minutes without crashing or freezing, was probably among the worst PC games ever offered to a mass audience. It became apparent, though, that this was simply a public relations effort on the company's part, as little, if anything, offered by the community ultimately worked its way into the the game as released. EA contracted the game to California game developer (Caesar IV, ) Tilted Mill (TM).ĭuring the spring of 2007, TM acted as if it was making efforts to reach out and solicit input from the community.
The game was originally announced in _, 2006, and was the subject of heavy speculation in the community prior to its release, primarily at Simtropolis (ST). SimCity: Societies (SC:S) was intended by Electronic Arts (EA) to be the successor game to SimCity 4 (SC4): the long-awaited SimCity 5.
