With the upcomming release of Sim City V in just a few weeks now, I figured it would be good to start planning our city areas for the [H]ard Region.

So, if your in for the [H]ard Region, please post your origin ID and mention what you plan on doing in your city in our region.

FrEaKy, insomnibyte on Origin

Region: [H]ard
City: Coaltram

Purpose of city: Production of coal power for use of the Region, should be one out of 3 power supplying cities in the region. Also providing major feed of tram (trains) system.

Wildace, WildAce on origin

City Name: Albion
with large police stations/firestations close to road connections and try to keep my population some what low to prevent long response times from traffic jams would prefer my city is connected to a second cluster by being on the outer edge also so i can provide the services up to 6 cities instead of only 4 if my city was in a corner spot.

Ampsonic, TheAmpsonic on Origin

Perhaps an education / techonology city? I can adjust to whatever!

NKDietrich, NKDietrich on Origin

Whatever is needed for the region

Jonesyy, Jonesy lmao on Origin
City Name: Las Venturas

Description: Primarily a green casino town mixed with aspects of tourism. Likely to have very little industry except for set-up and make revenue off the casinos so green, going to make sure crime is controlled.

ill make a service city in your cluster,

while ill try to keep the city as clean as possible it most likely wont be a green city.

here is a link to the region descriptions
http://www.ign.com/wikis/simcity/Regions

Viridian Woods (16)
Titan Gorge (16)
Discovery Delta (16)

are the 16 city regions.

All this information is GREAT!

You know I'm down Insom. I can do whatever we need in the region, not picky.
 
im down. im probably gonna have a casino town though

Hey guys I'd love to join.

Origin ID: Jonesy lmao
City Name: Las Venturas

Description: Primarily a green casino town mixed with aspects of tourism. Likely to have very little industry except for set-up and make revenue off the casinos so green, going to make sure crime is controlled. Note: This could change as I may want to experiment. Second option would be a high educated/high wealth city, high-tech city or even a crime/slums city just to make things interesting in the region. Who knows.

I'm down - my origin name:

Accelerus

No clue what type of city I'll have - would love to make a casino town, a tech town, and then a total wasteland dump/industry type of town.

How does this "region" thing work - is or will there be some official [H]ard region? or is this something more unofficial?

Regions are, at most, 16 cities in an area - from my understanding. You can trade, share resources, build co-op projects, etc.
 
who is coordinating this?

my origin id is Phlorge

hit me up. i like beans, long walks and chicken giblets
 
I will join you guys but I am not sure what I will be building just yet (maybe I will focus on superheros and Industrial).

Origin ID : Fades
City Name: Teknowave
 
I'm in the UK so I likely won't be able to get online until the weekend.
 
I'm willing to get my hands dirty.

Greatone123

Oil drilling and refining. I'll also plan on making recycling centers for plastics, so that should help others trash maybe. I'll build a maxis man HQ to help ward off those Evil Dr's that others might build ;)

I haven't seen much on the "trade" options to know what that is. If it pertains to anything I'm doing I'll do that too... since resources are limited I might use that to fall back on when I run out of oil.



we will need to figure out where the wind is blowing to keep those like me and insom from polluting others (if that's possible) I'll put things like my recycling center as close to the high way so that might help with regional trash gathering. Oil and industry will be rail driven so for those who want oil power or plastics to technology factories make sure you use the rail.


oh yeah and who is starting the region?

yeah we need to figure out what 16 person region we are going to use. but we also kinda need to know the different city plot locations so we can kinda plan for wind and resource distribution.

i would say to not make the hard region until maybe the 6th or something so we have atleast a day to look at the different region layouts and plot locations and figure out the clusters.

it will also give people a chance to start their own region city while we plan the hard region.

i like this idea, i would love to be able to make a smaller region with some friends and really get used to the game
 
yeah for me - I know the first few cities I build are probably going to suck (in the grand scheme of things) once we all figure out how the damn thing works (region/city/etc) layout type then I'm sure it will be easier to keep track.
 
I'm down.

Origin ID: Valve1138
City Name: (no idea, I'll pick one when I have a specific role to fill.)

Whatever is needed. Maybe I can be the crime, poverty, and gambling district :p
 
I will join as well. I don't know what kind of city I want yet, though.

Origin ID: Explosiveworm.
 
I might get in on this, but not sure yet as I need to learn what this all means and how to play the game. This will be my first Sim City that I've really played thoroughly through, it interests me unlike the previous versions.

Can people join the rejoin post creation?
Click to expand...

yes.

the region will be private and to get in you just have to add one of the people in the region to your origin friends list and then they can invite you or you can request an invite.

up until the 16 person max


i think upto Brents post is player number 14

which means possibly 2 spots left

if more than that wants in a hardforum region its not hard to make a second or 3rd hardforum region.

By all means, don't count me a spot, go ahead and use my spot for others. Doubt I'll really have time to do this anyway.
 
I'm in - I believe my Origin ID is voodoochicken24. I generally end up having academic cities, though I'm in for experimentation.

I would like to have a coal city eventually and call it Centralia. Underground fire? What underground fire?
 
I'd love to join, I'd like to make the WHOLE city a space port/nasa. I will need funding from all other cities since I will have 0 citizens and only workers.

origin id v8maro
 
this shows the resource layout for the regions

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...bzhWaEJfeUw5RW1ySjZoMlh5emc&single=true&gid=0

if we want alot of ports viridian woods or discovery delta are the 16 city regions to look at.

Viridian looks like an easier region than discovery delta but discovery delta looks like it has tons of water reserves.

i personally would rather do a titan gorge or discovery delta region for the hardforum region but i would like to hear everyone elses opinion before we decide.

my personal vote is for Discovery Delta, it looks like we could get alot of intercity connectivity with the 9/16 cities having port access and 10/16 have rail access

if people havnt make sure you add me on origin - WildAce
 
Discovery Delta looks good. I would like Barleycorn Point or Rising Sun Valley, personally, with a preference for Rising Sun. I'm going to go oil/shipping.
 
LyaLyaTopolya is my origin ID and i'll be in if there is still space :)

Just bought this.
 
if we do discovery delta ill prob want magnolia wetlands, ill take the lowest percent buildable one so i can see what it is like.

it seems like all of the cities in discovery delta have access to a decent amount of resources.

so, so far if we do discovery delta

I like the delta.

I'd take Barleycorn Point if there is space :) oil transitioning to high tech industry.
 
i couldnt find Greatone123 or v8maro in the origin database

i dont mind starting the region if need be. ive sent requests to everyone that left origin id's except the above 2 since i couldnt find them in the database.
 
I pre-ordered the game but its the boxed copy so I wont get it right away(I went the free take forever shipping route), but would love to join you guys. My Origin is ArazuX.
 
I'll join you guys. My town will be full of hobo drifters and vagrants. Looking forward to the fun.
j/k
I'll buy this game for $20 one day.
