Politician Archive

This is just a general example. No reference to any one player is intended.

Player places a City Hall in the middle of a gully surrounded by ravines. Player now has trouble placing structures due to the terrain.

A - Player should have chosen a better place to form a city.

B - Developers should have designed a better structure placement system.

I have seen more than a few posts regarding the above scenario and would like to see what the majority feels.

players fault....

why??

1. player can choose a different place to place..

2. Devs already gave specifics on city limitation (i.e. distant in radius from city hall)

3. any players (architect wise) would be pretty familar with housing and its footprint ( I know I am) and should know what would be able to place where.

4. only rule change was that the housing (seem to be small mainly and some med) can be place more uneven terrain.. (even gullies as I discover yesterday on a friend's location on naboo)

I blame the player... and myself in this case

I placed my hall approximately 150m between a huge cliff and a static npc city no build boundary...

what this means? I'm gonna have a city 900m by 300m

I don't blame the devs... I blame myself for not checking out the terrain better... but oh well... not moving now

Make the best of what life hands you I always say hehe not really but it sounds good in this case

Keli

but I bet it looks VERY pretty

Player's fault.

The Politician should be experienced enough to knowwhere to place a structure so that these probems don't occur. Politician is considered and Elite Profession by the Devs which means the player embarking on this career path should beexperienced enoughto have seen this coming.

Players fault. Even when placing the city hall, as they moved the structure around the grid they would have been able to see unbuildable areas . . . you would think they would have gotten the hint.

Our side is limiting our building as well, but we knew that from the start. We're right up against a hilllside, and the hill will take about 40% of our city space, plus we've got the mouth of a river at one edge, and the rise into a mountain range at the other end. We're prohibiting building on the hilly terrain (although a couple of houses could fit in some places) and going for the "city in a valley" look.

Players fualt.

No question

Most definately player fault.

Players fault and devs fault... mostly players fault

Players fault they should have known better than to place in a spot they hadn't researched... if a primary planet... devs fault... the player could have been rushed due to the caps...

Both. Player should know thier footprints

Dev's should have made building placement easier to deal with.

players buy far i know my guide look for hours befor the patch to fine flat land we had about 6wp of flat land its not that hard to find it

Players fault. Everyone has been dealing with the terrain problems for 4 months before cities came out. The devs actually greatly reduced the terrain limitations for houses. Next thing people will be complaining about lakes, why can't they build over them like on Endor.

Player's fault completely.
