This is true, I linked and example of it on the first page in the thread. Steadily since launch the server issues have disappeared, but the game's mechanics have been under heavy attacks.

Recently a modder found out that he could put the game in "Developer mode" and set the server timeout timer to infinity. Avoiding the DRM and getting extra road construction capability.

The game is so broken that you can build a 100% residential city... because apparently Sims can spend money in parks...
