[SimCity] Server and group list

[Spreez]

I would like to start a full server and list of people actually playing the game. Please post what server you are active on and your origin name so others can add and find you.

Origin: Spreey
Server: (prefer NA, no actives yet)

[dek0y]

The servers have been MUCH better since Friday night.

Origin: zorplex
Server: NA East 2

[BotoloLover]

Ok, I found a nice price on greenmangaming.com (41 euros), so I just bought it.
Origin ID is BotoloLover. Do we need to be on the same server to play on the same region? If yes, I'll get on NA East 2, too.

[Spreez]

NA East 2 is just about always full. I have an open one on NA East 3. Add me on origin and come play!

[ShadowRado]

I have been playing on all of the NA west servers and a couple other because of the problems. Have been play online with the SirSlicey

The servers have been much more stable recently. I've only been put in queue a couple time in the last few days and this was fixed by simply restarting the game and trying once more.

Also of note, all servers are physically in Ireland, so it doesn't really matter which server you choose regarding latency.

What I learned from my gambling experience:
Never build it at the far end of the entrance of your city
Dont build a precinct somewhere, place it close to the casinos
traffic is TERRIBLE
you rarely get tourists from boats and planes
only the basic one made profit for me
you WILL get f*cked by the server when you are relying on someone's utilities (I was in deficit all the time while spreez had massive excesses)
All in all it went well untill all my utilities from spreez dried up and I had to supply them all. But because of my sewage all my ground water was polluted

I managed to make ~120k/day with a sci fi and a medium value casino. I basically maxed out the gaming buildings on the medium casino and low wealth rooms on the sci fi. I put them right next to a convention center which was right next to a large commercial district. The commercial district becomes hotels when you place a convention center near them. Eventually the traffic became gridlocked with taxis and I started losing money, but it worked for a while. Maxis has said the larger casinos are bugged after someone complained to them of losing so much money, so it may become a little easier in the future.

What free game are you guys choosing?

Was thinking about:
-dead space 3
- mass effect 3
- mohw

How bad is mohw and which game is more fun if you havent played the prequels?
Thanks

[Hashey]

I went with Dead Space 3. Already played ME3 and MOHW. MOHW sucked bigtime and ME3 has a great story but I played it somewhere else, so didn't buy it for myself.
