The SimCity Beta Returns

Post#1 » Sat Feb 09, 2013 5:22 am

If you missed out on the last SimCity beta or just didn’t get enough, you’ll be happy to know developer Maxis and publisher EA are bringing the beta back. From Saturday, February 16th at 6 a.m. Pacific (9 a.m. Eastern), until Sunday, February 17th at 6 a.m. Pacific (9 a.m. Eastern), folks lucky enough to nab a beta code will be able to play an hour of the game.

So how'd it go? Were you able to get a bit of playtime?

I unfortunately wasn't able to get a key for that event.

Arstechnica did a review after playing it over the weekend.....they didn't seem too impressed and I could see why they were concerned after playing the beta.

SimCity impressions: We waited ten years for this?

WTF, a zombie attack. How the fuck do I solve that? My population just got halved by a fucking zombie attack.
And because there's no save games, I can't go back in time to try a different route. There's no freedom to experiment. Because you suffer permadeath.

Fucking hell, it's going to blow up again.
I don't understand. They have stopped enrolling in high school. So my education level is falling. So my nuclear power station keeps blowing up. But nothing is telling me WHY they're not enrolled at school. I have plenty of school buses. Well placed bus stops.
Man. Once things start going wrong, they go seriously wrong.
