Welcome to EA post 2000ish. They couldn't care less about their customers, and there is a reason they continually get granted the prestigious title of "Worst company in America" over an over again. Their games are nothing but buggy, frustrating, pathetic cash grabs anymore. This version of SimCity is the last pre-order, and title in general I have purchased from EA, and probably will be the last period. Every title that is released from them flops, and is hit with incredible backlash from their customer base. The ones that aren't 8 or 9 and keep purchasing these titles, anyway.
If you are still hoping for any glimmer of this game to actually work as intended, check modders forums and offline mode. Enough people finally just gave up and quit this pile for them to have to put in an offline mode. Perhaps some modders have actually fixed some things well paid developers couldn't after years.
I've built 3 or 4 archoligies and it just seems like the only thing they do is overload the train station(s) with workers I don't need. No tourists or college students - just workers who can't find work and have to leave the city.
Getting rid of the train stations keeps most of them away. It would be nice to be able to, if all the mayors in the area consent, remove a great work so you're not stuck with it.
