Title: Everyone who has played Sim City 2000 look here...
Post by: Unidan on June 25, 2001, 05:46:00 pm
If you've played Sim City 2000 listen up, fo you remember those huge structers called Arcologies? They were like huge cities packed into one building. You could build 4 types (i'll give you pics later), the Plymouth Arco, the Forest Arco, the Darco Arco, and the Launch Arco. If you build enough Launch Arco's they'll take off into space. They'd make a good MOD, and would be used for missions on planet Exodus'.

Does anyone have any idea what I'm talking about?

Do you know this for a fact? Cause in-game they don't do anything of the sort. I know that in the description it said something to that effect, but I can't recall what...

I filled a city up with wall to wall arcos (had to save up several billion dolars and destroy my city) and nothing happened.

Build 350 Launch Arcos and they take off - well blow up really - very slowly.   there was a saved city called Arco349 or something for the sole purpose of this.

It's true... if you have enough, they will launch. I did it... then it says something about exodus and compensation...  Wasn't bad... but pretty lame...  left nothing but rubble...

I haven't played Sim City 2000 in a very long time! *blows the dust off the CD cover*.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Oh, and I have no idea what you're talking about.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif) I'll have to play Sim City to see what you mean...
