can anyone help?
Hello everyone, I have a physical copy of SimCity 2013 that I registered on the Origin platform over ten years ago. I haven’t played it for a long time and have forgotten my account details, including the password. Today, I tried uninstalling the Origin platform and reinstalling the game from the disc, but the installer forces me to run it through Origin (which, as everyone knows, has already been discontinued). As a result, even though I still have the physical game, I can’t use it anymore. Does anyone know if there’s a way for me to log in to the game again — even if it means playing offline or without launching it through the platform?
SimCity 2013 not working
Hi, I bought the Sim City 5 Complete Edition on sale and I'm facing the following issue: When I click on the "Start Game" button, it says "Connecting to Update Server" and then displays the error message: ERROR CODE SMCY-25: Could not connect to the SimCity update server. Please try again or refer to the customer support link for assistance. I've already tried everything, including disabling the antivirus, checking compatibility with different Windows versions, and reinstalling everything I found on the internet. I live in Russia, and I understand that I won't be treated well, but I'm asking for help if anyone knows how to solve this problem. I've already tried using VPN and other methods to bypass the ^Russian^ blocks, but nothing worked. I really want to play my childhood game, despite my background and the fact that I have no influence. P.S. The text was translated using a translator, so there may be some inaccuracies. I hope it will be clear I wrote in support, but I think the Russian region is in a bathhouse right now
SimCity 4 compatibility
Hi guys, Not sure if i'm posting this to the correct forum, but I was trying to use the My Sim feature in SimCity 4 with the sims from the Legacy Collection, but the import tab in SimCity 4 is greyed out. I know that the installation directory was changed with the Legacy Collection, so not sure if that's an issue, but just wondering if any of you have had success with this?Dummy city building option
Recently I had an idea of how I can improve my city map and get to inc buildings and tax returns but for that I had to assume some of the areas and draw it on paper and calc some of the road coverages. So if there can be an option that lets you build a dummy city where you don't have to worry about sims happiness rather you can focus on services and polution coverages and you can have better ways to improve city with your imagination.Strong Suggestions to Improve SimCity BuildIt Club Communication and Management
Message: Dear SimCity BuildIt Team I’m reaching out as a long-time player and current Vice President of the Mayor’s Club “Championz_LandLordz.” The club system is one of the best parts of SimCity BuildIt — it brings players from all over the world together to collaborate, compete, and build amazing cities. However, several improvements could make the club experience even more effective, organized, and enjoyable for everyone. Here are our strongest recommendations and the reasons they would benefit the community: —Member Tagging System:— Allow players to tag or mention members by name (for example, using “@username”). This would help get members’ attention quickly during wars, trades, or important announcements — improving coordination and communication. —Club Polls and Voting Tools:— Add a simple poll or voting feature that lets presidents or deputies create polls for club decisions, such as war participation, leadership votes, or event planning. This would make clubs more democratic and engaging. —Simpler Club Invitation and Recruitment System:— Introduce a section that shows players who are not currently in any club so that presidents and deputies can invite them directly. Currently, we must search through the global trade list, which is time-consuming and inefficient. —Advanced Club Management Tools:— Allow presidents and deputies to post pinned announcements at the top of the club chat. Add a member activity tracker (such as last login or war participation) to help clubs stay active. Include options for leaders to customize club settings (e.g., language preference, city-level requirements, or war focus). —Improved Communication Features:— Add multi-line chat messages for clearer communication. Allow reactions or emojis in club chat to make it more interactive and friendly. Enable short club-wide notifications or reminders (for war start, donation requests, etc.). You should be able to talk to members privately, so you don't have to put them on the spot in front of others —Club Events and Recognition:— Create new club milestone achievements or rewards for teamwork and longevity. Introduce a Hall of Fame or expanded club leaderboard that recognizes clubs beyond just war rankings — for example, based on donations, event participation, or community engagement. These ideas would greatly strengthen player engagement, teamwork, and the overall club experience — helping clubs stay active and connected while motivating more players to stay involved long-term. Thank you for your continued dedication and creativity in developing SimCity BuildIt. Many of us have been loyal players for years because of your hard work, and we hope our feedback can help shape the future of the game positively. Sincerely, Smokie McPot Vice President, Championz_LandLordz Club of Rufftown’s clubSimCity 2013 stuck at loading screen
I recently bought a new Asus Vivobook 16 Flip (Lunar Lake) laptop. My OS is Windows 11 Home. I installed SimCity and I'm having a huge issue. I start the game. It makes me watch the long intro video and then it goes to the main start page with a spinning wheel in the upper right hand corner. The menu never appears. Sometimes if I restart and reload the game it will get to the main menu but when I try and load my city (Titan Gorge) it gets stuck at the loading screen. How do I fix this without uninstalling and reinstalling the game every time? This is ridiculous.Will there ever be a new "Sim City" (not buildit) game?
Is there ever a chance of a real Sim City game being developed (mobile included)? SimCity BuiltIt is just not... SimCity. That game has turned into a whirlpool of never ending tracks and has completely lost its way from what SimCity originally was. The first Sim City game I played was Sim City 2000 - can that be ported and maybe updated to a degree to be a mobile game?
