Which is why I'm surprised it hasn't been done yet. Except the stage 8s in the Frankfurt tile set do look a bit familiar...

A building architect tool that comes with the game, so you can design the exterior of your building.

Underground road, monorail and improve some architectures of the buildings will be good

It would be nice to drive a car to explore every part of your city!!! Dont you think? Also to make roads like those that american suburbs have (ending with a circle)...

AndrewC · November 5th, 2003, 05:04 PM

Ditch the stupid 1x1 size Bus Stops, A local bus station should be provided, and in a certain district around it you can lay bus stops ONTO the road. Like the way bins and lamp posts are put on paths in Tycoon games such as Rollercoaster Tycoon and theme park.

no. no cul-de-sacs, please. they're enough of a menace in reality...besides, can't you make them by looping the road around?

A MacIntosh version would be nice. I never found one for the latest edition.

November 5th, 2003, 11:05 PM

A lot of landmarks would be nice, and more ready made cities for beginners to see what a successfull city is like in the game.

Daccis · November 11th, 2003, 06:01 PM

It'd be cool if there was an option to create a "country". You could make lotsa cities and then connect 'em to eachother via roads, railways, air & sea-routes... etc, a little alike to sc4000's city-system.

Then you could trade with neightbor-countries etc... make deals, make war, make love, make allkinda stuff.

So basically it would be something like Simcity+Civilization+Europa Universalis

... I know, kinda far-fetched and hard to make so that it'd be good (and it wouldn't be nice to see your pretty cities being crushed by foreign army

) but... still....

Style™ · November 11th, 2003, 07:09 PM

@ Daccis, good luck finding a home PC that could run that massive game! Though, it would be awsome. I want regions to trade with other regions. Get a huge country going on!

Trances · November 14th, 2003, 01:57 PM

I still like ahving a starting year and letting your buidling evole over time ! Like start in 1800 and then in to 200 +
You could have hight limits and such adn you get the apporached by comapies that want to build land mark towers if you give them concession ( like the casion )
Content for WTB and such would be good
Think like that
just taing o next level

***dinp*** · November 15th, 2003, 01:22 AM

Pedestrian crossings, footbridges, park and ride, out-of-town retail centres, inter-linked rail/bus stations, bus lanes, cycle tracks, car parks, one way systems, different size stadiums, sea defences (sorry if some ideas are already in use, i dont have SimCity 4)

Trances · November 15th, 2003, 05:21 AM

thinbk sim city 4 has one ways in t ead on right ?

December 3rd, 2003, 10:01 AM

i would like to see more realistic buildings, not these kitschy colours...

and for a new catastrophe i would like to have "war".

and it would be cool when the architecture of the buildings would change during the centurys, but it must be still possible to build old buildings again. (To reconstructure a city after bombing or something)

penultimate disaster: Nuclear war
ultimate disaster: 10km asteroid impacting at 4000km/h
seriously though War isn't gonna be in. It's just not that type of game (go play Civ already!

)

Many good ideas here. I think I've seen 'em all before, but that's because they're so good alot of ppl think of 'em

One thing that must be in the next one is mixed zones. There are quite a few buildings with both shops, offices and appartments all in the same building (a certain black one in Chicago comes to mind...)

Style™ · December 3rd, 2003, 10:14 PM

Swede, I agree 100%! Mixed zones (dense, low density, etc) needs to be an option.

Heck, even though we know we all hate the suburbs. I would like to have mroe suburban style buildings (big boxes that go vancant and stay vacant for years). All cities have suburbs. I just think it would be fun to toy around with it.

High speed rail? Sky Train? Below grade freeways!!

Ground level perspective

LoveCPH · December 4th, 2003, 07:46 PM

I don't think we need a Simcity 5000 before some years until..

I'm with you on that

I would like to see a few new expansion packs though. Maybe some with big sport venues or lots of new buildings. I just hate when 3-4 identical high-rises pops up next to each other.
