Following a struggle with the tech folks following a fault in the SimCity press servers, the lost city of Fahey’s Folly — aka the SimCity on the Edge of Forever — was found once again. In celebration, I unleashed red-hot dino fury.
Since I’ll be using my own Origin account and retail servers for our upcoming SimCity review, Fahey’s Folly didn’t have long to live anyway. I think destruction by a Spore-looking Godzilla stand-in is what the city would have wanted.
The scaly bugger doesn’t do all that much damage anyway — this video is actually the third of three dino attacks. Thanks to the GlassBox engine, any destroyed buildings are quickly replaced once the rubble has been bulldozed. Natural disasters just aren’t want they used to be.
EA assures me that the bug that kept me from my city was an issue with the private servers the press preview are being held on, and should not affect retail customers, so hopefully noone should have to lose something they love, get it back and then kill it ever again.
At least not in SimCity.
