Sim city 4 introduces micromanagment of budget where you can tweak the budget of individual buildings.Tweak the Expendures of your town civic buildings low enough where the srvices are not sacrificed.Build in small increments.Keep it LOW DENSITY untill you get the hang of it and keep your devolopments within the radius of your Fire,police,schools etc.Create your central nucleus with these civic buildings in a downtown fashion and build zones around them.
@Dj7baylum doing that is fine and easy, but making the city look realistic at the same time is quite challenging. so i build regions where i actually play, and regions where i actually design a realistic layout of a city, and then they're the regions where i try to accomplish both.
build slowly, lower funds to the point which they are necessary like from schoold, police etc.. usually they fund alot more in the beginning then actually necessary, and build slow like i said don't go over building your whole map at once.. make some zones, then wait till you have more income then expanses then build some more
Well they are two different games in my opinon, if you want the challenge of building a city from the ground up with finiaial and civil matters then simcity 4 is the way to go. If you want a game in which city progress is made or influenced by different cultures then city life is the way. Personally I like sim city 4 better. I have Sim city societies, city life and simicity 4. Not very happy with Sim City societies as it is way to much like city life. Though the graphics are better.
At the end of 2008 Cities Unlimited will be released and when you visit cuplanetDOTcom you'll know it's gonna kick Simcity 4's ass...BIG time! Simcity 4 is simply outdated, buggy and has way too much micro management.
can somebody help me i cant kil this froob i attacked him wit everything but he didnt die i smashed hes house while he was in it but he didnt die hes mocking me!!! mocking me i will pwn that frooob aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
i got addicted to this game during the summer. and im not the kinda person to play games like this u know? but this is different.....i don't know what it is about the game. lol i asked my Economics teacher to play this for a week cuz it teaches u some things about keeping control of money stuff, and he said yes! good week.
I love SC4, but when it comes to build tall buildings. I fail. Why don't I get such buildings. I built lots oh hospitals, firestations and lots of deluxe police stations. And my monthy income is higher than the expences. I allso saw that the land value is allso good, very good. Population of 240.000 and not a single building with over 70 floors.
same here,i have like the perfect city goin on and then the tal buildins never build up and i do everything,im gonna try the neighboring city stuff hope that works
You need mass transit for one thing, but sometimes you just gotta wait, leave your compy on for like a while and check once in a while and close the advisor windows and you should start to see some developement, Also for commercial make sure theres alot of customers for residential make sure the commute time isnt to long. If you have extra cash, land markks and sports areans and ect. can definitly help sometimes,. hope this helps. P.S. Check out my city.
I wish you could specify which disasters you want to allow to happen. I like playing with them enabled but I hate having really random things happening eg aliens and a volcano in the middle of the city.
do you know a game where you build a farm and you get rewards like a house and a city and an airport? its a really old game. Been looking for 2 weeks now. don't know the name. its not Sim Farm either.
It Really Different, Better Graphics, A Lot More Variety In Buildings, Terrain Feature And Make A Region... However You Can Forget The Advisors... Their There, But Never Do Anything And Thiers No Ticker! ...But I Loved The Ticker
i got cities with the tallest buildings in this game in about two weeks, took me a while to learn how to build right though. If you want skyscraper, focus on safety, education, healthcare, and transit, don't go for the dsirty industry, go for the high -tech and you get the really tall and nice buildings.
the problem with high tech industry is that unlike you can't build up(like skyscrapers and such) and you can only spread out, which makes he commute time farther. Industry in general is only good for your city in the early stages, I think.
Never saw this video before, was it a commerical? Thanks for uploading it. I'm currently making New York in SimCity. The info is in my profile somewhere.
Well if you a "green" person, the dirty industrial is the heart of the taxes.Also no industries no shops, less people.Also at the begging try to pick a suitable map for instance some on New York are split into 2 by a river on sides big and the others small, make a bridge and put all the polluting stuff on the small side and houses and shops on the big one makes transit between the two sides and your ready to roll, heck doing that now i got only hi-tech industrial and a hydro power plant
God this game is oooooooooooooo hard if anyone could help me at all would be much appreciated. i have had it for 2 years build numerous cities and never really had a great one you know? the city goes fine until for some reason all industry goes black therefore i lower its taxes try to get more ppl in and then i cant afford to run schools and hospitals etc, and i dont really know what % i just have my taxes at in the begining? any help? cheers
i realy have some great city's and never had problems wit taxes. maybe cause i never change them? i allways keep them like this: all residential 8,9% ,industrial 9,9& and commercial 8,5% from begining to the "end".
hehe they are making a sim city 5 its just not called that its called simcity societies :P. just go 2 tiltedmill . com and simcity . ea . com they hav sum pics n stuff of it :)
I have the game, all u have to do is build a city but dont put any police stations at all. And after the city develops to a population of at least 1000 and people notice there r no police theyll start fires tip cars over and start riots!!! That happened to me once and I eas pissed of because it wouldnt stop even if u built police station it would still keep on going 4 a while!

You can drive through your city with Rush Hour, the only expansion for Simcity 4.
You dirve the car through a 3rd person view not actually from the inside out.

around this city, in the other cities, build farms (as much as posible) and poor industries (rise the taxes for high tech industries)
then in your residencia city build industries of high tech and comercial areas
