It's not true @Mafklapper78, with my respects. I wanted bigger map too, so I came here, searching for a solution.
as @MayorBig mentioned perfectly, it takes too much process to render all the details, vehicles and pedestrian movements. After playing some hours on a city, it's on edge of 200K people. But the problem is I can't play smoothly on my core i5-9400 and GTX 1070 8GB with 32GBs of ram.
Now I get it!!! It is a regional city building game. If you want single bigger city, play cities: skylines instead. it will be smooth untill 300k inhabitants with far more larger playable area. But disasters there... are really gigantic!!! it's not skylines... it's all about getting ready for huge disasters, and ultimately a huge Tsunami will be the final day of your play on a map
My biggest city so far was with 2 million inhabitants which ran like a dream on my older xeon x5650 system with 18 gigs of ram. the only problems i ran into was the numbers displayed when inhabiting multiple cities in one area, numbers such as the need system ( people industry commerce ) and people that work in one city but live in another and students... I'm hoping my new r5 will take that like a charm though i haven't progressed a lot since i'm playing pretty casual atm.
Your problems sounds more windows enviroment related, or maybe EA have to update their gen 9 support
- 6 years ago@RedDawnbreaker Unfortunately EA totally abandoned SimCity, one of the best Games Resource Simulation and very beautiful!
Almost "buried" SimCity, and completely abandoned the Gamers who have purchased and are SimCity fans, even without any support to the various problems that have arisen since its launch, and looks that are gone 06 Long Years of abandonment ....
EA aims only to make money, not respect its Gamers !!- 6 years ago

Long live SimCity !!- 6 years ago
yea,
the ultimate maxis aim was sims and not simcity.
i understand your sentiment but i can't agree with your conclusion
I was even happy to see cities arising but i really miss the fun part of sims in that city
Maybe in a couple of years we will see the rise of a new city simulator which brings us just as much joy as Simcity did over these past decades
If i take the dollar per hour fun ratio simcity was more then i bargained for and still offers some pleasure today
Ofcourse i will be hoping that someday EA grants us a new update or maybe even a new simcity entirely but untill that day there is a lot more i can do
Still from a CA standpoint i would have reacted otherwise
How CA spend our money to totally destroy Rome II and offer us such a silly game in return is past my understanding and has led to outrageous cries not far of from the one you are producing now
EA in my youth was the place where i found cnc
later on it became the place where i tailed bioware on foot
Mass Effect still remains the best rpg over x years in my book
I hope EA as one of the leaders of the gamescene will try its utmost best to get rid of that money grabbers aura and present us with earnest hardworking people who have love for the game
