In March 2013, the first new iteration of SimCity in a decade was launched, amid a flurry of critical praise mingled with fan disappointment at Electronic Arts' "always-online" digital rights management policy and repeated server failures.Ī few weeks before the launch, Venue had the opportunity to play the new SimCity at its Manhattan premiere, during which time we feverishly laid out curving roads and parks, drilled for oil while installing a token wind turbine, and tried to ignore our city's residents' - known as Sims - complaints as their homes burned before we could afford to build a fire station. Indeed, if we are to believe the hype, the city has become our species' greatest triumph.Ī shot from photographer Michael Wolf's extraordinary Architecture of Density series, newly available in hardcover. Once a byword for boring, city planning is now a hot topic, claimed by technology companies, economists, so-called " Supermayors," and cultural institutions alike as the key to humanity's future. In the nearly quarter-century since designer Will Wright launched the iconic urban planning computer game, SimCity, not only has the world's population become majoritatively urban for the first time in human history, but interest in cities and their design has gone mainstream. To increase your chances of a solution being found include as much detail as possible (which version of the game you’re running, what operating system you have, what video card you have and steps to reproduce the issue).Screenshot of our own SimCity (called, for reasons that made sense at the time, We Are The Champignons) after three hours of game play. If you’ve followed the above steps and are still having issues getting Sim City 4 windowed mode to work, please post in the comments below.
