:O

pretty excited. I bought Cities XL 2012 to scratch the itch, and it is a good game.............. wonderfully complex, but just doesnt work the way you want it to. the overall management is kinda broken so it gets crazy difficult juggling everything even when you have unlimited money.

yeah ive been reading the responses on metacritic. the peoples are not happy. It has stopped me from buying it anyway. I'm sure someone has figured out how to priate the game anyway. and hopefully someone will make a mod to stop the need for online connection and online saving (the dumbest thing ive ever heard for a non-MMORPG)

i digged a bit deeper and the whingy kind of players (theres always a select few with every game, and always a platoon with AAA titles) have come up with some good points:

Firstly, the traffic jam chaos, lack of business for certain jobs/shops and buses/schools issues.

Apparently the other sim cities didnt have this issue. and that an easy fix would have been to reserve houses/jobs for people as they leave the house. to prevent people just following them and going to a full house/job.

Secondly, some people are claiming the population of your game (not in sandbox) is limited to 300k. At 280k or so, everyone runs into a disaster. Lizard, zombie apocalypse, meteor shower etc. When you rebuild and recover, happens again. rinse repeat. a bit disappointing.

Got a mate with a city of 320k still going. I call BS on that disaster.

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
