Cities XL - A flythrough of a couple of my cities from Cities XL on Prosporo Server

Here is some ingame footage of Cities XL, the new city building mmo that just came out a couple of weeks ago. I have a few fairly impressive cities, and produce the most resources of any given type on the entire planet of Prosporo. But the video starts out, in my city named Office Space, which as you can guess, houses many offices, and staplers. It also has a Hi Tech Section as well. And the video finishes up with Megaplex, the Heavy Industrial capital of Prosporo. I make more than twice as much as resources as even the second place guy on the list. I will likely add another video showing Party Coast (my resort and power house) and WaterMart in a later video. But here you go folks, here is some in game footage of Cities XL. Hope you enjoy!

Personally, if it was me and I had THAT many trades as you had, I would have wiped my city just to tank the economy on the server to show MonteCristo the flaw in their design. It's like in WOW, how nobody has been able to run the auction house for any real extended amount of time, it's designed well in that regard. But to have one player be able to tank the economy in CXL shows a design flaw in the game back then. Fortunately with 2011 out tomorrow, we can now trade in our own cities.

@DesertRidgeline But it did, and daily. When the trades would expire it was a nightmare for me and the server. It got to the point where I was literally required to spend about 8 hours of trading things before i could get into a city to start making it bigger. And at that point, you build like a mad man until you pass out. Because the second you wake up, you have 8 hours of balancing to do again :(

@DesertRidgeline Yeah, it was insane. I got to a point I had to spend literally 6 to 8 hours trading off tokens until my cities were positive again. And due to the lag and all that, it just made the game unplayable ;( But at least they tried, there hasn't been something like this before, so I give them credit for trying :) Was fun while it lasted.

I just wish the online version was back. :( I nbever gotta chance to play that. BTW, nice city. :)

[mattdawg420]

@Denon3333 Thanks :) Yeah, the online was the main draw of the game. Every time I get interested in playing the game, I try to play the single player and get like 15 minutes into it and go meh, and play something else. I miss the online play as well ;/

your computer is damn slow

[mattdawg420]

@albert3366 LOL thats the thing, its NOT the PC, its the MMO :( Once you had that many millions of people in a city plus having thousands of trades going on at the same time, the game was near unplayable at some times. The trade window was like a laggy virus ridden PC surfing the net :( My PC is quite uber.. trust me it was the MMO if you played it back then you would know, it was probably why the game failed.

hey i really enjoy watching this video but i think yu should make mor....also i been think bout geting this game would yu recomend it ?

[VanCityThugg]

I do like this game but the trade system is so annoyingly bugged. There should be a simple one click button to cancel all trading with a specific city under that citiy's trade window. I've adjusted all trade exports with Omnicorp to zero and for some reason I'm still trading unknown tokens with Omnicorp.
