Hi, I am playing SimCity Societies Destinations on a Lenovo Ideapad laptop on Windows 10. I have tried a number of steps (opening game via EA App, opening SCSDestinations.exe directly, etc.) but the Expansion is not recognised by the EA App and does not open. I can open the base game with no patches (the patches come as part of the Destinations expansion) and open a map without issue, just the aforementioned missing content. I have tried reinstalling the game and the EA App but this did not work. I have previously been able to play Destinations on this device (a few months ago) but had to reinstall as the game began crashing to desktop when I revisited it recently. This was preceded by the EA App also requiring reinstallation as it was failing to start.Solved3.7KViews3likes23CommentsPlastic storage fills up in recycling center....now what?

Hello So, it's not a new topic but since none of previous solutions work im starting new discussion. When launching simcity societies from app , or from all diffrent exe apps in folder ,destinations addon content just doesn't show up. I've literally tried every solution, copying shortcuts, moving destinations folder etc none of it works. Back when origin was running destinations were seperate game you could launch, maybe making it seperate game on ea app and not an addon could fix this problem.JacobeyPL6 days agoSeasoned Newcomer147Views4likes3CommentsERROR CODE SMCY-2

Subject: Feature Proposal: Advanced Market Search & Auto-Refresh System Dear SimCity BuildIt Development Team, I am writing to you as a dedicated Mayor with a specific two-part proposal to enhance the Global Trade HQ experience. The Proposal: Part 1: Advanced Search Filter (To the Left of the "General" tab) Adding a filter button that allows players to: - Select up to 5 specific items to search for simultaneously. - Set a quantity range (from 1 to 5 units). - Set a custom price range (e.g., from 5 Simoleons up to a custom limit like 3000). Part 2: Intelligent Refresh Timer (To the Right of the "General" tab) Implementing a 10-minute active session timer. Once activated: - The market listings will automatically refresh every 30 seconds for the duration of the 10 minutes. - This allows Mayors to see a constant stream of new sellers without having to manually close and reopen the market. Why this is needed: These features would make the Global Market much more dynamic and efficient, helping Mayors find exactly what they need within their budget and time frame. I hope to see these improvements in a future update. Thank you for your amazing work on this game!

I really don't like the mass transit because it takes up so much space, but barely covers any area and it feels like half my city is just going to be train stations. Even the ones that have the most coverage don't seem to be enough. Is there anything that's going to change with this? Is covering my city for mass transit even worth it7zwq7f0qx00n13 days agoRising Novice21Views0likes0CommentsA Sincere Request for the Future of the SimCity Franchise
Dear EA Strategy and Maxis Development Teams I am writing this message as a loyal fan and a long time player of the SimCity series. I want to share my thoughts on why now is the perfect time for a new SimCity title. Since 2013 the city building genre has changed but there is still a big gap in the market for the unique feel that only SimCity can provide. We miss the sophisticated simulation the distinct art style and the amazing music that made the series so special. With todays powerful hardware and AI the technical limits of the past are gone. As a player I am looking for a new SimCity experience that includes larger maps that allow for real city growth and deeper social simulations. I also hope for a strong single player mode that works offline and modern graphics that make the world feel alive. SimCity is a legendary brand. Bringing it back to its former glory is not just my dream as a player but also a great opportunity for EA. We are ready to be Mayors again. When will Maxis be ready to give us the keys to the city again. I look forward to seeing SimCity return.

So, I think I cracked it and I have used a mixture of fixes from others (apologies I cannot remember their names) Delete the EA shortcut off the desktop go to C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop\ Apply compatibility for both EALauncher and EADesktop under the compatibility tab in properties to: Run the program as an administrator For EALauncher compatibility mode to windows 8. Right click EADesktop and send shortcut to desktop Go to C:\Program Files\EA Games\SimCity\SimCity Right click onto SimCity and go to properties and apply compatibility mode for windows 8 and run as administrator. Restart the PC and open EADesktop from the desktop and then launch the game - it did throw up the unable to launch but straight after it booted up perfectly, and now I can load and play without issues.laurarose199126 days agoRising Novice1.4KViews2likes5CommentsGame disappeared + no help available from EA.
SimCity 4 Rush Hour doesn't appear in my EA or Steam account. It's registered that I purchased it. I only see the option to buy it again. Everything was fine until a few months ago. I had to reinstall the computer and now I can't figure out how to fix SimCity. I don't think this topic is open, but my English level is low. I used Google Translate. I apologize and thank you in advance.jjbbarbosa26 days agoSeasoned Newcomer34Views0likes0CommentsSimCity Won't Load
BRO HELP ME I've been trying to solve this issue for 2 years now. Whenever I attempt to load SimCity (2013), I get "This game requires administrative privileges. Do you want to grant access and launch the game?" Then followed by "Failed to launch game. An error on our end caused the launch to fail. Try again a little later." I've tried all posted fixes on this forum that I can find. I really just want to play this game as it's very nostalgic to me. Please help!droberts81527 days agoSeasoned Newcomer151Views0likes7CommentsMultiplayer doesn't work
Guys, help me. Just a couple of days ago, I started playing online with a friend. Everything was working fine. We were playing on the "Asia" server. Also, in multiplayer, other players' regions were visible, and everything was fine. But then, yesterday, everything suddenly stopped working. Other people's servers aren't showing up, and I can't create a world in multiplayer; it just kicks me back to the menu with an error. I've tried everything, what should I do?27Views0likes0CommentsSim City Complete Edition Download

Whenever I try to play Destinations, it returns to Societies, the base game instead. I tried using the launcher in the Destinations files, but it's the same problem. Compatibility and reinstallations did not work either I have been unable to play Destinations which adds flavor and challenge that the base game lacked. It worked on Origin a few years back but not so on the EA app.1.2KViews0likes6Comments
