SimCity 4 Rush Hour 1.0 (Mac OS X)

The new Features of Expansion pack - *censored*iness? or am I right?  

I have a few issues with conceptual design of some of the transporation features - asside from my poor speed and the clumsy autoscroll that causes my map to move 4-8 spaces before i can get it to stop ( not to mention the delayed reaction i get from clicking too many times on a selection and the slow response to cover the correct object with the bulldoze function- not only that but the auto-assist for building spreads of zones when you really only wanted to squeez one in a small locale - and 3000$ later you've got 30! but my specific complaint is the limitations for anyone who wishes to NOT build in Grid formation ONLY i can't understand why avenues one has to fight tooth and nail to get two angled corners to connect - the limitations in where i can place "T" intersections for HWy's and and where the hell can you switch traintracks from ground to elevated rail? i assumed it was automatic like Hwys? I mean I'm aware it's a game and it's not nearly as flexible as real life - but come on Even i don't walk in straight lines all the time other than that- the game does stimulate for hours- but I do find these creation areas could be a bt more vast and accomodating to the scratch City planner and those who wish to experiment in non-linear systems games are supposed to involve a certain element of fun- and silly too! can you consider coming up with more Architectural styles than just the 4? Coudl you also look into the random limit for landforms ( can you add the % water to land ratio with those options ?) those were fun in the old days ( I still own and very rarely play SimCity 1 for my NES ( ok I'm showing my age here ) if by some magic these things can be included in the next round ( personally i'm not the least interested in Signage and labels- or flying a helicopter around town ) I would be the first in line to purchase!! cheers! this is constructional critiscm - i don't hate anyone - I just felt these are concerns i have that i thought you MIGHT want to consider.. even though i would prefer to place "4 stars" , i hardly feel i would be heard if i did such- i will go with "Neutral" ( all will be marked neutral - except price since to me, money is irrelevant! ) without prejudice; J,M.
