Title: I want to link
Post by: evyse on January 03, 2012, 23:37:06
I want to link Sim City 4 and SSE, it would be awesome to putt around in the waters near your city!

I know, as I have replied to more of your posts, It took two years to produce Extremes, this is almost a whole other game!

Well, it's a question if both companies even want to do this, man...  ;)
Besides, the chance of this is very low and I don't like this idea and I don't think VSTEP will do anything which one person asks.  :P

The idea itself is a great one, however, actually making it happen would require one heck of an effort, for various reasons :
1. Vstep make simulators, not simcity style games,
2. Vstep and EA are two COMPLETELY seperate companies
3. the gameplay would be very hard to impliment in a way that will make the game commercially viable, after all, why make a game if your not going to make money from it?
4. EA dropped development of the sims city series ages ago, and I highly doubt they'd want to restart it...

FYI the forum is wholely owned by VSTEP B.V.

Ok well here's the biggest question of all... can the user-base develop a better server with more features?

A better server? i'm sorry, but i don't understand how servers and linking sims city and SSE are related to each other...

I don't mean sim city... I'm just talking about a console for SSE.
