Airports, crashes and weather!?!?!?

[frosty1116]

hi,

what do people think about having things like airports in the game and be able to expand like (heathrow), have road crashes causing traffic and needing to divert vehicles with emergency services attending and weather problems like snow causing travel disruption, strong wind (tree damage) and floods?

If these things are already included please let me know!

I think airports are already in the game i haven't seen an official video but there are some screenshots here is one of them:

Spoiler

Not sure about road crashes, watch this video starting at 20 seconds http://youtu.be/6_6UwJ-JQ_s
You can see some cars clipping through each other. Having road crashes would make the intersections unavailable a lot of the time.
But it is a good a idea and adds some difficulty to the game. But will probably take a lot of work.

Wheater was already planned but won't be with the launch of the game.
Instead of making it just a visual thing the developers wanted it to have some sort of impact on the world.

Thanks for the reply i have not seen that picture yet but glad you shown me! and about the intersection i agree it would add some difficulty and it would be hard to work on but id really love it obviously they would sort the clipping out if they did do it but i cant see that happening due to some of your points.

Yeah, there won't be day and night cycles at launch, so that basically brings the chance of weather at launch to 0.1%. But, lets see what the future holds!

In one of the dev videos they talk about car crashes. It is stated that while they would like to have them they are hard to program and won't likely make it into the launch version.

Will CIMs riot or protest like they do in Sim 2013?

The "protest" in simcity2013 is a joke -.-

 

[kosh22]

Airport needs to be bigger, if we have that much area then why are we making airport look like a bus terminal ?

Since we can't upgrade airports, are there going to be options for larger international airports? Much like in Cities XL where you could just plop down the larger airport.
