SimCity V

[Skjalg]

I was so excited for this, since I love building games, but when I tried it out on spillexpo in Oslo last week the game was really laggy and unresponsive. I'm so hoping they will fix those issues because to me that game was unplayable.

Sadly, Norwegian isn't a major international hit yet. Gamesexpo right?

Im very hyped for this game, even though I have never played any SimCity for more than 15 min in the past. But all the media for this new one looks awesome.

Hope they fix those issues you mentioned Skjalg, that didn't sound very nice

Apparently there is a beta Jan 25-28th.

The #SimCity Beta is taking place Jan 25-28. Be the first to play a one hour slice of the game: http://t.co/dxadwXpb RT if you're excited!

I was getting that error almost constantly, was finally able to actually register late last night. Not sure if the traffic's really that crazy, or their servers aren't up to it or what.

Damn it, I didn't see this before now and they don't accept more applicants

[Beck]

I don't think you're going to miss much anyway. I've read that people will only get to play for an hour.

Now this is a bit ridiculous:

Hmm servers were down so I don't know if you'll get to replay the same hour. That would work.

I'll see how it works in a bit!
