EA didn't roll out enough servers to handle the load which is to be expected, IMO, with these DRM only games. Blizzard had the same issue with Diablo III on release. I had this "unable to create city" issue as well but once another server rolled out last night the game worked like a charm. If you're having this issue or the other where the tutorial loads but won't let you do anything, just quit the game and try a different server, eventually you will get to play the game. Unfortunately, this isn't something that a patch can fix, just more servers needed based on the demographics. Be patient, the game is worth it.
