o it works just give it time today i started a new region cause the one i joined in lost the players so i left and made a new one
with in that i made three cities to my self and wanted to recreate that video on how the dude makes a city and some how makes another one with a coal factory and a few industrials and has his city start commuting to find work
and it took me four hrs and this is no joke four hrs to get it right
after taking out bond loans on one of my industrial cities and caped out all loans i got it to work
i supply power to my residential city and remove its crap while the other industrial city removes garbage and plastics
if you dont see city buildings when you go into region view
it means the server didnt sync your other cities for you to claim much of anything
hence why i say to play all the cities you have in your grasp for a while
once you see that over the horizon you see buildings that means your able to claim any services you like
but if you just see plain land and a single road you aint doing it right
I created city #3 yesterday before the patch. That might be what's causing the issue. I'm going to start a 4th city to test it.
well i havent been able to get in the game since the patch but
i know it works if you give each of your cities 30 mins each of game play
as it takes 15 mins to refresh on to the server *such as leaderboards and region global scores*
so giving 30 mins or so will make dramatic changes
only three cities can interconnect with each other as a power house
making a 4th city will be to far for one or more of the cities to share services
ok well i do have proof that i am able to make these services work as i did record my game play and bugs to report as a physical evidence that i have issues and can make a work around them
but what some ppl are not getting is that if you want your sims to find a job make sure that city your in
has no jobs just plop residential and no commercial zone or industrials
i know you will be in debt for the mean time
but once you see and i know this may be a quick display
but on the top you should see a msg saying sims are commuting to other cities for business *which in lames terms means jobs and shopping or what not*
EDITED
so catch is make one city all residential
start a new city make industrial and power
city three make commercial and industrial with a bit of residential to balance the debt between cities
play each for 30 mins and once you see buildings grow from each city you know your region is working and able to share services
i know its a bit to much work and time wasted but trust me it works 34hrs of game play and i got to see a good 500k+ sims populated
Waste. It doesn't work, man, it doesn't work.
