Alataq Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Hi. I'm here with a suggestion: In the background, every continent they have a certain background which looks like a certain city in real life. I think it would be cool if you could see your own city, see buildings and projects and be able to see how you're progressing with the rest of the world. You wouldn't have to be able to walk around, but just see it and when you add stuff, it to load in. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naTia Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 This would be a really nice addition to the game in my opinion, but it's really up to Sheepy. This sounds like a lot of work for a strictly aesthetic reward. I doubt people would really be able to appreciate it unless they were here for a while, so I'd say it'd really only add a nice touch. If this is too much, even just seeing different pictures of more built up cities as infra progresses would be nice. 2 Quote Resident DJ @ Club Orbis Founder of The Warehouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alataq Posted December 3, 2014 Author Share Posted December 3, 2014 Yeah! That's the thing.. I just feel like I see a city, but I'd kind of like to know how strong my city is and how big, or the different buildings and where they are located. It would be A LOT of work, and I know I would appreciate it... But you're right. Up to them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kim Jong-Il Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Or, and this could just be an or, what if Sheepy made the city picture just like the flags in the donation page? Make it like, $5, $10 on PayPal, and you can customize it, like with the flags and portraits. But, you can also edit it so that instead of, for example, in Australia, the default image is of Sydney. Sheepy could implement that there be more pics of major cities from each continent, but like around 8-10, and they lock onto the continent your nation is on; Every city can have a separate picture. A custom one would have to look somewhat like a city though, like maybe a castle (or a swamp). It sounds more realistic than a progressive picture, so it has a better chance of becoming a real thing, and it can also provide more donations for the running of the game. And who doesnt like customisation? Customization is what defines me as unique in a game. I'd buy 1 Quote The many forms of proof regarding Kastor's sexuality: - Kastor: I already came out the closet. - MaIone: I'm gay * MaIone is now known as Kastor - Henri: i'm a !@#$it Skable: the !@#$ is a codo?

Dolphman Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 I have a somewhat good guess on how this game is coded (I have not seen the code though), and this is a really hard task, as he only has the raw numbers of your city to work with, I mean what the !@#$ would Infrastructure transfer to in real life?. Unless Sheepy really wants to do this, I dont see it happening. 2 Quote Leader of UPS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikhail Gorbachev Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 It wouldn't even have to be very complicated. It could depend on continent in some ways. For an example, my country is in Asia. It could look like this: 100-300 Infra: Phnom Penh 300-500: Ulaan Baatar 500-750: Bejing 750-1000: Bangkok 1000-1500: Tokyo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odin Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 (edited) I would rather upload own pics, hate that Eiffel Tower in Berlin (and in every other !@#$ city -.- ) ;D It wouldn't even have to be very complicated.

SoS Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 ...progressing images of city development? And based around real examples for each continent? Sounds cool. Civ did it with icons, based on infra and culture. Doesn't seen it'd be much harder to do with images. You can do like 4 images representing city development.
