    I used to set a cap on 5-10 kb/s back in the days (= last year), but that was because I had to pay per mb I used (download + upload), so I tried to keep my expensive upload down, but now I don't pay more nomatter how much I download/upload so I have it full speed)...

      Although I use Overnet mostly for gay porn download :lol

      Can you convert Simcity3K into Simcity4 ones?
      I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

          So I wasted my time in building all those useless cities!!! GRRRRR!



          I've gotten Simcity4 a cpl days ago and really stuck in it- and I was a pretty good Simcity Classic/2000/3000 player! Any suggestion about new tecniques to use?

              I just got SC4 yesterday and all ive learnt atm is to build a **** load of zoning before building any government buildings (beyond the necessary power/water/transport etc), the upkeep costs are massive! My first city i didnt build my first small fire station until all my industrial sector was on fire. lol

                  Actually, I tried building a city like Yin said - without water, and that works quite fine - I've started a new one, and so far have a population of 14.000 yet they have no water. They don't seem to need it at first.

                    I try to avoid guides of any sort now, it really ruined my first few plays with sc3k to know what to do before i figured it out myself, its half the fun.

                      Sounds interesting... i never considered that, i thought water would be vital for at least residential buildings.

                        I agree actually. To me, it almost feels like cheating to read some strategy guide before I try the stuff myself. It's no fun that way. Then again, when you are stuck, and the game becomes frustrating and not fun, then you gotta do what you gotta do.

                          I agree, sometimes guides kills the fun... but I just had to read on how to get those busstops to work... my sims would never use public transportation (And this was both in SC3000 and SC4)

                            This works, yes, but I'd call this cheating, since I know I wouldn't want to live in a city, where you know they wont install water anytime soon...

                              And you read that where? I have the same problem, you see... The busstops and train stations are never used more than 10%... And subways are just always empty.

                                I wouldn't call this cheating... Because look at the wealth of the sims that come to a city with no water. It's waaay down there. In any other city, they wouldn't have enough money to find a home, and here, since there are no basic amenities, the land value is so cheap, everyone can afford it. I can see people choosing an apartment with no water as opposed to the street for home.
