вЂ¦ Full Review В»Д¬ities XL has been running for quite a while longer than its 'Platinum' update. having said that the game, like all other games and software, does have bugs and issues, but luckily they are for minor and can easily be ignore of worked around. in this way its more a city builder than a sim i would say. also this games lets u pack the density of the cities to real world levels and beyond. the only difference between those games and this game is that this game does not impose limits on you like simcity or tropico or anno does. so yes the game is a 32-bit game with the game logic running in a single thread, but most other games out there have the same limitations. the trick is to balance city size and complexity and not try to build cities that don't make sense and would not be practical even in real life. and since its a 32-bit application, like most games, the cities can only get so large and complex before you hit the 2-3gb limit that windows imposes. so what you have a people with low end hardware trying to build cities they can't support. in fact i cant think of a real world single city that has a population of over 90M. It's hard to put in words just how large and complex your cities can get, they can look so real that you can't distinguish screenshots from real world images of some of the worlds largest cities. so as you add more and more buildings and roads and the cities get larger and more complex sure its going to use more and more memory until you run out of memory and until your cpu/gpu cant handle the size of the cities and complexity and the framerate goes down. what issue that people are having is that the game allows you to build huge i mean huge cities, ive seen some with population over 90M and basically they do not set limits other than the hardware you have.

#CITIES XL PLATINUM REVIEW UPGRADE#

yet they refuse to upgrade to this game, basically wanting the new developers to basically give them the new game.

many do not even own or play this game, they just own the other game and since the servers have all been shutdown for that game long ago can't no longer play it. so they troll steam forums and even this site complaining about the long defunct developers and about long ago fixed bugs and basically spooking people away from buying the game. as you can imagine the people who originally purchased and subscribed to cities xl unlimited edition, the mmo version from the now bankrupt developer, are pissed off that they got stuck with a dead game after only being able to play with it for such a short time. since then making minor fixes and about once a year they have been releasing new content dlcs.

soon after focus acquired the writes and reworked it as a single player offline game and released it. unfortunately less than a year after they went broke due to low subscription rate and were unable to finish the game. over 4 years ago a small company named monte cristo developed and released it as massively multiuser online game. i would say about a 7 and with all the stuff on perhaps an 8! please understand that this game has a bit of history. and while its not worth a 10 its definitively not a 0!. and while its i increased my score a couple point to try to offset the trolls and griefers that wrongfully malign this otherwise great game.
