Multyplayer/I,citizen.

[Maca2]

So long time ago I wish this game have multyplayer so I can play it with friend who loves to build cities too. But multy is hard for building games. Cuz what was the point to play them?

But now with disasters it have a sense.

I,CITIZEN
So first in multyplayer menu you create/fill something like your city profile.

• Name of the City/city part
• Chose your flag and flag color-its just for decorative reasons, the flag be on some of the buldings like police,town hall, etc, maybe some billboards and some of the citizens will have these colors on like when they go to stadium.It will help you to feel more personal with your city/city part
• Kultural/Town theme (tropical,winter,europe....)

MULTYPLAY time.

If they are connected with something they can trade.
Then the game can start. Every player will chose theyr starting square on map and plays.

• Like water if pipes, or electricity if power lines.
• Road connection for goods + pacts like people can go work to other city, or visiting as tourist.
• Mostly important pact of DISASTER HELP RESPOND if one player is hited hard by disaster and cant handle it alone,or slowly.
• And others pacts you can imagine (police patrols so one player doesnt need that much cop stations,garbage to other city dump/incinerator, pact that allow use other players railway station/create bus stop, and etc etc....)

Players can play just for fun of coop or maybe some win option as who will first reach 100k people etc.

OTHER IDEAS

• Boats - passager boats and ferrys for passagers and cars, because islands connected just by bridges is soo boring.
• Water for water towers - I mean where they take water?They should by supplied by water tankers same as coal/oil powerplants + its open options for players to supply other by water if hes on square with no waterr connection.

Thats all for now O Remember its just few ideas, so dont be overrude on me And sry for english...

I’m sorry to tell you. This idea has been given since the pre-release of this game and since that time the developers decided they will not introduce multiplayer to this game.
Look at the competitors and what happened to their games: Cities XL and Sim City had multiplayer in their games. Today neither of these games have multiplayer because it never worked. City simulation games should be single player only.

I belive, they just do it wrong

I think the greatest problem would be that you won't play a city sim like a shooter or RTS-game. In the latter cases you seek fun for 1-2 hours and you don't care the other guys playing unless they are annoying. Playing a citybuilder requires reliable folk with mutual understanding playing the others on consecutive dates and I do think that will narrow the number of fun to play multiplayer games to near inexistant. I would think, CO would not provide a multiplayer server for this - would be a waste of resources.
