Lost interest weeks ago.

As far as I know, my rollback issue still exists.

Until yesterday it was 2 weeks or so since I had played it at all... At this point my only interest is Sanbox mode to see what I can do with virtually unlimited resources... I had a nice super-city last night actually turning a profit until I decreased taxes to get more growth faster... The poor simulation, tiny map size, and bugs when sharing resources has killed the real game for me.

Not sure the game can be saved, but they'd pushed out a quick "3.0" update...

What worries me is when they say things like "Made gift giving more reliable" ?? How about "Made gift giving work completely" because it's not a seemingly difficult task to get a simple feature to work 100% rather than just work better than it did.

Still have yet to play again. Seems like they really screwed the pooch on this one.

Game still sucks. Played it for a little bit this morning for the first time since March. Hard to believe they're selling DLC expansions when the game still doesn't really work.

Haven't played in months, but update 7, supposedly coming later this month looks to be the first with an actual cool new feature-

I doubt I'll ever play again. If I want to do repetitive stuff these days, I'll log into Diablo and play it for an hour or so.

I doubt I'll play again as well but only because the dang thing keeps crashing on me. :(

Agreed. I don't see them ever "coming back" from that launch.

edit: Did they ever increase the map size or is that still slated as DLC for a price later?

Until they unlock larger maps I don't see trying it again.

They claim there will never be larger maps that computers can't handle the increase in calculations necessary to expand the maps.

Ditto.

They claim there will never be larger maps that computers can't handle the increase in calculations necessary to expand the maps.
They also claimed that the processing took place on the server which is why an internet connection was required.
