This game will be not be very fun if every time they have an issue they reset it. I can see resetting it this time but let's hope they don't make a habit of it.

Google and hasbor goof up I got to buy my local bike trail for $1,000,000 whch strech my whole county. This is great I can set a lot of buildings on that and use it as my cash cow. LOL

Die Idee ist gut: Spiele-Konzern Hasbro wollte den Brettspiel-Klassiker Monopoly auf „Google Maps“ im Internet spielen lassen. Doch offenbar hat das Unternehmen den Ansturm der Spieler unterschätzt.

Derzeit heißt es: Gehen Sie nicht über Los! Auf der Webseite www.MonopolyCityStreets.com ist es derzeit nicht einmal möglich, sich anzumelden.

Teilnehmer des Spiels sollen bei „Monopoly City Streets“ reale Straßen in aller Welt kaufen können. Das Turnier sollte bis Ende Januar 2010 kostenlos zugänglich sein. Doch vorerst wird es nichts mit dem virtuellen Geschacher um Immobilien.

Hey guys - bit of a disappointment with message; 'Country not supported yet - Sorry the game is not yet availble for your country, please try again later.' (http://www.monopolycitystre...
Pity they couldn't tell me as soon as they identified my IP when I went to www.monopolycitystreets.com but instead they get you to click "PLAY" then choose "Language" then load an animation before blanking the screen black to say they're not open for business in Australia. Surely even if they have an issue with Aussie streets people from anywhere in the world should be able to participate and buy streets in other countries... right?!

Re: Google Monopoly City Streets: Down on Launch Day

MyMemories — Thu, 10 Sep 2009 04:07:06 -0000

Which country are you in ?

Do try again later as it might be having some error.

Re: Google Monopoly City Streets: Down on Launch Day

MyMemories — Thu, 10 Sep 2009 04:06:22 -0000

Agree. They shouldn't restart/relaunched this game.

They should pay attention to the bugs and fixed them first.

If there's a relaunched and the same old server crash problem occurs, not only does famous streets get bought away, even lousy streets will be bought away as well.

Then it timed out :(

Wonder if they are hosting this on Google infrastructure or Hasbro infrastructure. (One would think the latter)

Ahh well. Will keep trying.

I hope they don't reset it...It took me a very long time to login...But I finally got there, and even though the popular streets were already taken it was awesome to zoom around the world, see what was for sale and then grab it. There's talk of a reset when they fix the servers, but I honestly think that would NOT be the right thing to do.

Re: Google Monopoly City Streets: Down on Launch Day

MyMemories — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 23:07:48 -0000

Some new pictures are up if you couldn't get into the game to see it :D

I appricate that your team is trying to make the game as enjoyable as possible, but in all honestly I have to poliently agree with most of the fans, you should reset the game when you feel you're more ready to handle the load.

I made sure to wake up early in order to play, spent over two hours refreshing, finally getting in, and watching as the street I pushed buy for over 15 times was bought while I waited for the server to register my purchase (This was Constitution Ave, in front of the White House)

Even now, over 14 hours later, the game still runs at a snails pace and it's impossible to get anywhere without wasting hours of my time.

I think in fairness to fans over the world, you'd be better suited reseting the game to create and equal, and level playing field for all players, which in the long run will lead to a more successful game and PR.
