Just wanted to let you all know that the devs appear to be testing player city caps on TC now. Overnight 14 additional dev cities sprang up on Tatooine. The two most, uh, interesting dev city names there are "No to burger" and "NO NOT REALLY."

It's important to note that these are just the cities registered on the map and are in no way indicative of the number of allowed cities.

Thats our devs!

Great, I wishwould **edit**ing fix the bug where I can not place a city hall even though there's only 8 on my serv on tat atm...

And no, there are no others, I have been trying to place it for 2 days since the very minute the first town of 10went down as I knew when that was gonna happen.

And yes, I have been trying for two days, I have not had more sleep than 10 hours in total, yes, i should go outside.

YES I WANT MY GODDAMN CITY

How do you know thre are no others? I mayor does NOT have to register the city on your Map...so what if there are 2 cities that have not done so? Im sure the big 3 planets are filled on every server...

cos weknew the mayor of a disbanded guild that was going to take his city down in the middle of the night, only we knew when the city went down and we tried placing a new city hall since that very moment

Apart from that, the serv is fairly new (chim) and there arent much PC's on the serv at all

This makes me very happy.

Finally.

Theres still a Land Rush aspect though. How? Max Radius influence. This makes the "when" still vital.

Thank you for letting us know, Plinka.

I'll log onto the TC later to check this out, but unitl then:

Are these just City Halls in the middle of no-where or did the Dev populate them with their "Dev-Like powers"(i.e.Admin programs)to see what would happen?

I hope they can do something about the lag. It takes 3 times longer to load house items than it use to and in combat it can take 15 - 30 seconds to start fighting after you hit attack. This is on Dantoonie too. Before player cities the lag on Dantoonie was pretty much not noticable. Now it is just disappointing. I would rather have a cap than a minute lag.

pics of Naboo on Ahazi last week... 30+ cities (over 20 with shuttleports)

I guess this is a test too (and yes the planet is laggy, but this naboo has always been laggy so it's hard to tell the true effect)

Naboo on Ahazi has been like this almost from the start.

Was there ever a reason given for this?

I haven't noticed an increase in lag - coronet is still 10 times worse than theed on ahazi

well ahazi nabo is now up to 33 listed cities on the map. **edit** are the devs doing here????

Every time I see a post about Naboo having so many cities on Ahazi I burn a little more. Lucky for them I guess. The rest of us on other servers who have been developing our cities for months and who desperately want to have our city on Naboo are still waiting. Now, with it being announcedthat there will remain a cap on Level 4 cities, even if by some miracle we can get our city hall placed on Naboo we'll never be able to have the shuttleport that we counted on when we chose our city site far away from Moenia. I'm not whining.. I'm just plain disgusted.
