Is your city in debt? Do you need a Sim ulus package? Are you frustrated by clueless advisors? Sounds like you need some advice from the people of Maxis Taxes. Our tax experts – namely me, Balance Designer Ross Treyz – are here to help you find a solution to your financial troubles. Before we talk about how to use taxes, let’s talk about the different tax controls available to mayors. The tax controls available to each mayor depend on their city hall. Here is what tax controls look like for different mayors and their city halls: As you can see, the most control is available to mayors who have a City Hall with the Department of Finance. While the techniques we will talk about here are useful for any mayor, they are most useful to those who have a City Hall with the Department of Finance. OK, now let’s talk about taxes. Every hour when your hourly income is calculated, one of three things happens depending on your tax rate: 1) If your taxes are high, there is a chance that your Sims will lose happiness. 2) If your taxes are low, there is a chance that your Sims will gain happiness. And 3) If your taxes are in the middle, no extra happiness is gained or lost. Each wealth level is affected by different tax rates: Taxes are a useful tool for any mayor, and understanding how they work will allow you to use them in ways you may not have thought about. We are going to discuss three ways to use taxes: wealth, growth, and exclusion: Wealth ...

This weeks developer blog on Simcity.com by Jason Halvorson, Gameplay Scripter, is about pacing your city and population growth, and how you want to consider many things, such as layout of your city, as that helps with the future of your city and growing population! Hello, Simcity fans! My name is Jason Halvorson and I’m a gameplay scripter here at Maxis. In this blog I’d like to share one of my strategies when developing a city. One of the more crucial stages in any city’s development takes place right at the beginning. Sure, laying out a good road network and thinking ahead in terms of the layout of your future city is pinnacle for a successful city, but pacing the growth of your city will make the journey along the way enjoyable for both you and your Sims. As the Mayor you have several tools at your fingertips to control the how and when buildings increase in density. Let me show you. When I’m playing Simcity, I’m constantly keeping my eye on the Detail tab of the Population window. Read More The post Simcity Dev Blog: Pacing Your City To Grow appeared first on Simified.com . ...

SimCity for Mac Delayed Again, This Time Until August

Sun, 09 Jun 2013 15:05:54 GMT

Source: www.iphoneconnection.co.uk --- Sunday, June 09, 2013
EA Maxis announced today that the release of the Mac version of its new Simcity game will be postponed until August, citing the need to make sure it’s “ready for prime time.” Considering the rough reception the PC version received on account of server issues and connectivity problems after its launch in March (even to the point of forcing EA Maxis to temporarily disable crucial aspects of the game), that’s probably a good idea, to put it lightly. In Maxis’ announcement, Senior Producer Kip Katsarelis admitted it was a tough decision. “We want to ensure the Mac is a great experience for our players and that is why we are taking more time,” he said. To thank Mac users for their patience, Katsarelis announced that players of the Mac version will receive “Launch Park,” a special area of the game introduced in the PC version’s Update 4 for early adopters. Depicting British cars on the wrong side of the road was the least of Simcity’s problems. That sounds nice, but considering that the rest of announcement detailed a cascade of coming bug fixes and improvements for the existing PC version, it’s worth wondering if the Mac version will have a bumpy launch regardless of the extra time. On the bright side, as Maxis originally announced in April , you won’t have to buy a new version of Simcity for Mac if you’ve already bought it for the PC. This marks the second time the Mac version’s release has been delayed. Maxis originally announced th ...

SimCity patch 5.0 fixes lying fire advisors

Not one for small iterations but still a fan of the decimal point, Maxis have released Simcity 5.0, the latest in a long line of patches fixing the many bugs present in the game at release. This latest patch addresses things like the fire advisor telling you “that neighbors are sending fire trucks when your neighbor has no fire stations." Those tricksy fire advistors. It also adds some new features, like historic price charts, overhauling the chat system, and letting you filter friends in server menus. Simcity is progressively heading towards the game it should have been at launch, fixing many of the bugs that make playing the game a chore - mainly, the game telling you things are happening when they flat out aren’t. Still, I can’t help but notice the game’s lacking an offline mode feature. Here’s the full list, filched from EA’s forums : Continue reading ...
