eddie: same applies to you..and arguing that way with Fyron is pointless. He's entire too patient, you'll just go around and around for 30 pages, getting into increasingly obscure and off-topic references.

Good advice, I concur. Sometimes I do get a little excited when I am "defending" something I consider worthy. Do not mean to offend or show disrespect. Thanks

It rather looks like the majority has the same opinion like Fyron and Atomannj. So YOU better get over it, Eddie... and personal attacks on someone just because he has a different opinion than yours are just not appropriate here.

A clickfeast at best, the unfriendly user interface and non-influencable stupid AI decisions for what is supposed to be MY empire spoils the fun for me like for most strategy game players. I like being able to (micro)manage everything in my empire, but that doesn't mean that I like doing it with a dozen mouseclicks for each simple decision, and often even in vain because it is altered back the very next turn by this supid not disengagable AI. Plus plus plus - I too think the game is junk at its finest. My opinion as someone who likes strategy games.

Of course, anyone who likes sim-type games, where you do only the most basic things and the rest is taken out of your hands, will think differently. I don't have a problem with it. I only have a problem with people luring strategy gamers into the trap of buying this sim-game. Misery likes company, or why? Accept that what you like is not what everyone likes. And the rapid price decay plus Ebay overcrowded with cheap offers shows what the majority really thinks.

Hey Roanon I don't think he was attacking anyone, but merely posting his heart felt opinion about the topic in much the same way we all do when we feel compassionate about the subject. Sometimes in posting we think and post some things that would be best left unposted. But those involved in this incident are all adult enough to take it in stride just like water off a ducks back.

I respect any person who has the dedication and character to say "hey I don't agree with you."

Oposite opinions often lead to great debates and strong bonds of respect for one another.

Well, naturally, you build up more slowly since they cost more. Let the game run at max speed while you do your thing.

Also, you can start with a regular road city to get a fast start, and once the tax money starts rolling in, just switch over to the subways for new construction and slowly retrofit the "old town" when you feel like it.
