While that was the marketing line "simulation so complex it can't run on your PC", I remember there being an offline crack shortly after release and later one of the official patches even enabled it officially.
- delusional 4y agoYeah, the part that were simulated online was the trade between the cities, a task so trivial it demanded nothing of the servers. The server side simulation was a joke. It was mostly an excuse for why the game performed poorly and the cities were so small.
- antifa 4y agoYeah there was basically no evidence that the game did anything more intense than the original SimCity (1989) but they loved claiming otherwise.
