i guess nobody has an origin account

The art looks fantastic, depth of field especially:

Just wish it wasn't EA publishing this game, probably going to milk DLC/addons for all they're worth. And no, I don't have an origin account either

 

[Berordn]

It was being discussed in this thread, but it's probably threadworthy on its own.

I did sign up and I might actually consider downloading Origin should I be accepted. I can't say I care for the social/community stuff at all, but if it's Simcity at its core, I really can't resist.

 

[Proxy]

Nice, hope I can get in.

 

[-Deadpool-]

Damn Origin.. Haha, going to have to recover my info no doubt.

Will sign up for this tonight.

 

[eunao]

Can I sign up for mac or is it PC only?

Beta is PC only.

 

[EdibleExplosives]

I just tried to sign up and it says my account has been disabled...the fuck?

I created one in June for Sim City pre-order. :lol

Applied, thx!

 

[Why would you do that?]

Hmm... Do you think I'd have a better chance of getting into the beta if I do my dxdiag from XP or 7?

Use Windows ME.

 

[eunao]

Beta is PC only.

I hope my core 2 duo can handle it...

 

[Aesthet1c]

Just applied. Thanks OP!

 

[zashga]

Shame this is tied to Origin. Guess it can't be helped.

 

[SUBZERO-08]

Thanks, just applied.

 

[GhostWriter24]

Applied. Thanks!

 

[GrizzNKev]

My dxdiag file is too large?

I cut some stuff out from the end that didn't look important. Oh well.

 

[derExperte]

Thx, I'll try my luck.... hm, good thing or bad thing that I never played SC4000?

My dxdiag file is too large?

Mine was 26KB.

 

[zroid]

niiice, I was trying to sign up this morning but kept getting an error. thanks for the reminder, it worked this time!

 

[autobzooty]

do we know when the beta is starting?

 

[Metalmurphy]

Registered as soon as they announced it at GamesCom.

Spoiler

Or better yet, as soon as the servers got revived

 

[You Are Viewtiful]

Signed up. I love SimCity 4 <3

 

[Razek]

Figured I would give it a shot. What's the harm in trying?

 

[elfinke]

The art looks fantastic, depth of field especially:

That really does look great. Can imagine the Scout and Pyro running around in that world.

Next time I'm in front of the PC, I'll throw my hat in the ring. Thanks for the heads up OP!

 

[Sleeplessnights]

Hmm... Do you think I'd have a better chance of getting into the beta if I do my dxdiag from XP or 7?

Why would you do that?

 

[hyelife]

ORIGIN sucks but no choice. I will register as soon as I get home so My DXDIAG shows a my Awesome PC!!

 

[Finalow]

the game looks amazing tho.

 

[Meier]

Holy fuck I neeeeeed this in my life.

 

[graywolf323]

worth a try, I do love the Sim City games

 

[yankeeforever2]

Need to get a new computer for this baby, nursing my 7 year old computer is about done.

 

[TronLight]
