You can tell I don't play new PC games that often. The last new PC game I got was Civ V, but it was all offline. Before that BF3 which is also Orgin but I got it late enough to avoid a lot of this shit.
Anyway - I'm playing on West Coast US servers -- one thing that sucks is that your cities are saved only on the server you played on, so if that server is busy, then you're screwed.
Also - they're delayed the release in Europe and Oceania, which is why those servers are generally available (although I had the same 'cannot create city' bullshit there too). When the game comes out there, then all the servers are going to be hammered.
Anyway --- game looks pretty interesting. The region concept is really important, and they made the city lots small enough that you kind of have to branch out. That is the whole point of this game. I built an oil refinery (cause I'm a dirty pollution loving texan) and its shut down because I've produced as much oil as I can hold, apparently I need to sell it off to other players in the region. I built an oil power plant to take some of the load, but I'm still sitting on shit-tons of oil. Also - build a fire department early, I lost like 10 buildings to fires, those dip-shits don't know how to put them out fast enough. The meteor attack I had didn't help
