Traffic is green. I have other sims commuting all the way accross the map North-South, but they won't go half way accross East-West. It seems very odd to me.
I am still having a hard time convincing myself that density should be alone based on the type of street.
There is plenty of high density buildings in the Calgary beltline that dont have 4 or 6 lane roads attached to them.
In a lot of ways Cities XL is a much more complex game than Sc 4, but also very shallow. It's hard to describe.
Cities XL has complicated city transport. But building worth and condition aren't affected by where you put it. A high density house on a hill over looking a lake should have crazy high property value but it doesnt make a difference. Cities XL also has massive maps but the longer a game goes on the memory leaks makes it hard to deal with.
If SC 5 added little things like one way streets (I find it AMAZING they left this out) larger maps and proper zoning, I would be conviced we have a winner on our hands. As I see it now I think they`re banking on us forgiving a lot on these points based on glass box being so impressive.
Time will tell I guess.

When asked what his long-term vision for SimCity was, Ocean said (paraphrasing), "I am envisioning having the whole 16 x 16 km area as one contiguous city."

Not sure, I just happened to get an email. It said that they want as many people playing as possible so maybe you'll all get one.

No signup for this beta. Based off email list from original two betas. It is only for a couple of hours to load the servers as has been said. I got the email last night also.
For those who know or are willing to try out, does having multiple train stations or ferry docks significantly increase tourism rates?
Now don't take this as gospel as I'm not 100% sure but I think no. You can use modules to expand the capacity of your train station or ferry dock but I don't think multiples will make a big difference.
I think having all the types of transport would help the most (air, water, train, bus).
