Lost of reputation is something I think most people can understand and is one thing I hope more companies come to understand. There is no infinite market and hell, there are no new demographic or geographic markets to expand to (As far as I can see). They got NA, East Asia, Europe and Oceania (From what I understand, CA, SA, Africa, India and the Middle East has one but its pretty nonexistent). Then it get split up between age groups, casuals and hardcore. So they pretty much have all the markets that they will ever have. Dissuading potential customers from buying from you is a poor idea in a such a situation. Especially so when there are unlimited products from competitors to go around. So the idea that you might be able to hang around like that one terrible restaurant that you have no idea how they stay open with their terrible service and food, is not going to fly. Also, internet age. Word spreads fast.

Chinese is close enough.

Being Asian, I'm a disgrace. Odd how Starcraft never found me. Maybe its time. I don't see Command and Conquer ever coming back.

I'm starting to question the calorie count of my beers.

It really makes me sad that this is Nintendo only. I love what I played of the GCN/DS version. Land of extortion and other shady stuff... made fun! Perhaps I'll play a future version on 5DS. Also I love the music. Its simple but its really nice.

Are you a Cantonese-type? Have we talked about this, before? Do you speak Cantonese? Yeah, we talked about it before and yes I am Cantonese.

I'm from a culture that call white people "white ghost" on a casual basis. You can guess for black people. Racial slurs and other terms doesn't mean much to me. It has gotten me in trouble before... you folks and racism.

Mai commander. And yes it is hard to get a decent server going. The run from home idea died quick.

Earwigs. I think they are the true culprits of all my woes. Diatomaceous earth time.

http://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/1a8edf/the_simcity_pr_nightmare_escalates_xpost_from/ Just dig around a bit in the comments. I'm done with this thread and done with EA for a while. Maybe they can turn around like Ubisoft. Meh.

Need more of these prosthetics.

God, I need to broaden my playlist. I've been going back and forth between the same stuff for a few months. KEEP ON POSTING PEOPLE. I found Animals as Leaders from ya'll.

Instant good day.

Bought a bunch of Sleeping Dogs DLC and Tropico 4 pack. SD DLC just because. I heard that T4 is just a small bump from T3 but at $10 for all DLC... hard to pass up.

http://www.reddit.com/r/SimCity/comments/19xx7d/trying_some_technical_analysis_of_the_server/ A nice thread of what the servers are actually used for. Take home message is... good chances are that the servers doesn't need to be there.

Here us how I see it: SimCity has (had) so much potential. I can see it but god damn. The flaws are huge and it completely kills the good. If there ever will be a SimCity 6... I hope it can learn from these fatal flaws of this one. I'm just disappointed. I want to find a reason to love it but GOH and you others set me back into reality...

Now I am wondering... game wise, WTF are they running on their servers? What are running on our machines?

ST, it might be cheaper now to get it but yeah... not like they are hurting for cash.

That is why I would love to see China just quietly come in behind to kick their asses. They might be able to amass an army without the North knowing. I can almost see the rest of the world just go "We're cool.".

Umm, I think at this point I know how potato plants look like and I may have quite a few volunteers. Most of them are near where I grew them last time but there are a few strays. I swore I got them all when I harvested and even then, at most left were small little bugger. I'm going to leave them in for now but I'm pulling them if I feel that they're crowding out my other plants. Edit: Also, no slugs. I drove them off it seem.

$1.5 million. Jesus. I might hop on board to see whats the commotion is about when I get the money. I'm retarded with money so I'm willing to throw my money at folks who I really think will treat their backers right. I might not like the final product but I am impressed. A nice story would be nice.

... Fuck Japan.
