Not much better than Cities XL 2011, June 18, 2012

I was sad to start playing this game and see that they didn't do a whole lot to improve the game. In fact they didn't do much. The publishers of this game are just looking for a quick buck. There are many bugs in this game including several buildings that don't function properly. You have to delete the buildings or you have a city full of abandoned buildings (because there are not a whole lot of building choices and they duplicate a ton.)

To anyone looking for a good city builder I would by Sim City 4 or wait til February of 2013 and buy the new Sim City.

There are some areas of the game that can be confusing but the gameplay itself is very involving. It has to be the most realistic city simulation available.

simcity "Digital Deluxe" vs Cities XL, May 2, 2013

It's like SimCity 1 and 3 but you have to trade and people don't move in/out as fast as SimCity.

You do not connect to another city next door it's like SimCity deluxe/limited but no transportation leading into the city it's like simcity3. You setup RCI like in SimCity 1

The people in Cities XL Platinum and 2011 are very clicky just like in SimCity. God forbid you forget to give them water.

THE LOAD SPEED IS GREAT.

THE REASON I STOPPED PLAYING SIMCITY: The City size was small and too hard to keep people happy and make a profit. SimCity took way too long to load they got me for 79.99 and I would have to sit there for up to 10min. SimCity did just updated (update3 did nothing) today but it is still slow and they have not made their cities any bigger.

Main Difference between SimCity Deluxe/Limited and Cities XL.

Cities XL City sizes are much greater than SimCity ever has been.
Cities XL allows you to make the bus route... Read more
