Kind of sucks, can't let people know when these trains are going with a bit more notice. should have given two weeks for this to get around. Guess you are wanting people to quit the game when they get on and find they cant do crap with their sims in the productions cities. Considering for 2 months at least we have been told that bags didnt need to be packed because their property and belongings would be moved with them. Merged into the cities . I mean that is what all the hoopla was about when the EAland map was unveiled. All that work and thiose squares mean nothing. Wasted time on a map that has no purpose now. Because the erge isnt going to happen, it can and is possible, but too many people are playing in the production cities soo we are being forced to play in EALand beta or get screwed royal. Again real nice job on such good notice about the "bullet train" schedule.

lmao now that was a response...

But back on topic... there was at least a weeks notice that there would most likely be a train today... and where on earth did you get there would be no merge? your newly aquired crystal ball?

One of the good things about these boards is the fact that there's always someone out there that knows everything that is going on, or at least thinks so, and is more than willing to share it with everyone especially if it's negative.

I think we have a problem Houston!
My Dans Grove sim landed in Ealand with all her locks intact but her age is shown as 0 days old.I don't know how old she was but she was created over 1000 days ago.
The sim that I created in Ealand 32 days ago with the same name has kept her name and because my DG sims age has been wiped back to zero she has a number after her name.
Has anyone else got this problem?
I was really looking forward to having an old sim there but now I wish I hadn't bothered!

I think that if you read the devs blog - you will see a post about this - it was to be a weekly bullet train - if you need more notice than 2 weeks ago, then I think you are being a little unreasonable, plus we were advised on 13th Febthat all Production cities would close on 20th - I dont know how much time you need to go and put your sim on the platform at the railway station.

Um don't know where you got that info from. Greg didnt post that the productions cities would be shut down permanently on the 21st( not the 20th) until February 13th. Until then it has been our understanding for over 2 months ,per another blog by the devs, that when this merge happened all items and the property would move with the sim.. so um wth cared about the "bullet train" when they were going to move with their property????
. Lets see the difference between the 18th, (today) and the 13th is hmm.. 5 days? wth does 2weeks has to do with this? ?? Your point was what?

&gt;&gt; My Dans Grove sim landed in Ealand with all her locks
&gt;&gt; intact but her age is shown as 0 days old.I don't know
&gt;&gt; how old she was but she was created over 1000 days ago.

Thanks for the heads up.

The gnomes disguised as border patrol confiscated several IDs. We are in process of correcting that for Dan's Grove and Dragon's Cove arrivals. The Alphaville sims will be correctedshortly after their arrival. The remaining cities will not have that problem as the culprits have been detained.

Appologize for the inconvenience.

Thanks

My point is that since the 1st week of February you have been advised that bullet trains have been scheduled (this is sims moving WITHOUT Property - just inventory).....so I really dont understand your gripe and your point. You have had plenty of time to tick the box to move your sim on the bullet train.

Oh and forgive me for saying 20th and not 21st, my error by one day.


From the way I see it, the fact that they are shutting down the production city (giving us notice of 8 days) means that somewhere in the near future the merge is gonna happen.....but hey thats how I see it.
I think that who ever posts here in response to you is gonna get a tongue lashing no matter what!

Yeah I've been trying to update from TSO to EA Land or TC3 and the updater can't connect and nobody from EA/Maxis is sending any feedback about what's going on...I hate it when they have these communication "blackouts" when they don't say anything and we're sitting here waiting without being able to play...

Samething happened to me , Just goto your Maxis directory -&gt; tsoclient -&gt; copy the tsoclient file to your desktop and run it like normal you'll get in : )

Thanks for the advice, but that won't get me from the old production cities to EA Land or TC3...it will just bring me back to where I last was...that is the production cities and since AV and BF are down I can't play in those either

same problem...and the TSOClient isnt working for me either.

I agree 100% that they are not very good at customer service. Sometimes I will ask one of them a question and just get ignored. Terrible.
