it is pathetic that a company says "build springfield the way you want to" and now tried to control HOW you do that.. really who is hurt by a person building homes? it affects no other person in the game as no two springfields are connected! its pathetic and over reactive.
I don't think it's over-reactive on their part. EA makes money off of this game; that's, of course, its primary function for their purposes. They probably analyzed the data and saw gonzo house building was taking real money away from them, likely in the form of people spending less time in the game and less money on premium items. So, this is purely a business decision on their part, one I'm sure will bring up their bottom line.
Look, we all know this, and the game itself parodies this aspect of the model, but I think it means they're losing some revenue.
