CitiesXL is godawful. I've played the beta, its hopeless and its going to get utterly savaged when the reviews start coming in. Forget XL as a replacement for SimCity4. |
shite, you're right...
i was just reading this thread ad found this:
CXL comparison to SC4:
The good:
- Curving roads
- More freedom to move the camera around
The bad:
- Can't easily upgrade roads
- All zones are the same size
- MC (Monte Cristo, the developers)wants to block custom content and modding
- Pricing, the game will cost over $100 for the first year
- Your cities aren't yours, they're stored on a server and held hostage to monthly payments
- There's no pause button
- There's no save button
- There's no way to close the chat box, nor is there a good place to put it where it won't get in the way, I constantly have to move it
- The user interface is not very good at all (that's something SC4 got right from the start).
i don't think this will be much of a success..
