I've been hooked onto this game for a while now, and this is probably the biggest I've ever gotten.

It's the biggest city from a playground map of mine, and I have developed it on and off for the past two weeks.
Also, I'm open for any invites to multiplayer matches :)

If I like OpenTTD? Dude, I played the original Transport Tycoon Deluxe DOS-port of the game when I was young. Also, the original DOS game has one of the best soundtracks of games from that era:



And here is the 2014 version of one of the tracks from the original soundtrack, re-played by the composer himself (I really want the full album of this ;) )

I, too, remember playing TT on my dad's win98 "beast" of a machine. Or it might've been the other, similar version.. Memory doesn't serve me that well. Oh, and I noticed that you like SC4 also, which I'm very familiar with! not that I'm great at it, or anything :D (built a 100k town ONCE)

Dude, I'm quite big in the SC4 modding community, though since I'm part of ProMods, those days are practically over ;)

So I did some further research and apparently you were part of the NAM team ! I didn't know that :P

I'm thinking of giving the game a go, after all these years - I bought and tried SC5 but the issues weren't enough to win me over. Are there any essential mods or tweaks I should get?

SimCity 2013 is pretty much dead and doomed from the beginning. Cities: Skylines has a much better future.

I'd turn to CSL, but my CPU is too weak to run it properly. Makes me wonder what requires that much processing.. maybe the water physics (which I find cool, but redundant, in a way)

Edit:

So I calculated the total amount of citizens in the first picture and currently, at 2nd Jun 2132 it stands at 46,684! Do note that the nuclear winter hasn't hit yet, so this is probably not the peak population ;)
