Nice thing about the size-- My frustration with 2K was my inability to make an honest-to-goodness metropolis that contained several cities in its metropolitan area.

But I'd like to ask about these "driving missions" and "my sim" features: Are those essentially extraneous to the standard gameplay? I don't really have any desire to play a stripped down "grand theft auto" or stripped down "the sims."

Also, does it have the same advancing timeline as 2K did, where new techs become available through time?
