Beach properties? Where are the beaches and their props? Oh wait, guys, they gifted us 4 palm trees and a bunch of generic-looking houses!

I didn't buy the DLC directly, I got it with the base game, and I wouldn't buy it for any price. Paradox needs to stop pressuring Colossal Order into milking its community with DLCs, and give them enough time and workforce to fix the game.

In the first weeks, Mariina was very active, and the devs pushed a patch a week to fix things that should never happen to a game upon its release: performance so bad that it barely ran above 15fps even on high-end computers, and amount of gameplay that breaks proportionally to your progress. I really wanted this game to be good, and I've been waiting patiently for much needed patches. I don't care about patches for aesthetic problems. What I do care about is patches that fix the gameplay, like the cargo train station that completely broke the city's mail and exports (took 2 months to be patched), or imports ALWAYS being greater than exports, no matter how much industry you put to try and compensate for it (which hasn't been patched yet).

What made me lose most of my hope though, was the fact that, instead of fully focusing on fixing problems that affect close to 100% of players, they (or Paradox did) decide to put people on fixing bugs, but also putting people working on a 10$ DLC that just gives you houses that don't even look like beach properties, as per the DLC name, and doesn't even include the possibility of creating beaches???

I guess that, just like Starbreeze with Payday 3, Colossal Order is a small studio that hit a gold mine with an excellent first game, but were pressured so hard by the publisher that they just ended up releasing a game that was in Beta stage (almost Alpha in some aspects), and are now forced to work on DLCs that are not worth their money before fully fixing their game first.

It's a shame, but I don't think my trust on Colossal Order will reach the level it was before release because of this, unless they actually break loose their chains and start working on what the players need most. Don't get me wrong, I'll keep on playing the game since I already own it, but if I were to buy it now, I wouldn't buy it.

Very fun game, although most servers aren't very clear about how the game should be played. I play with friends all the time, and all the memories we get from the gameplay are just fantastic!

I love this game! Shame it does not have more levels...! :(
Very relaxing game before you hit the first orb (don't know if I should call it that?)
The game movements go with the music rythm, and it's truly majestic to see it like that!

I really like this game. As I love to simulate things from cities to the entire planet, this game is incredibly well done and meets my "requirements" when it comes to simulate this type of things. :) Would recomend for sure.

Better than Simcity. This game's incredible, and has tons of better features Simcity does not have! Did not regret at all when bought this!

Would recommend because of the story. Very good graphics and constant updates to correct bugs and add features.
Wouldn't recommend because of the multiplayer community (some people shouldn't even have access to it...! :P )
