I’ve had CS1 for years it’s still very playable if not a little broken in a few places. The devs appear to be making a good concerted effort to plug the gaps and provide a better product.
Traffic.
Otherwise I wouldn’t say there are any major problems, but traffic is known broken, mods sometimes help a little.
Love the sim enhancements.
I don’t own Cities Skylines 1, but I’m being tempted on buying 2 with these feature highlights; it appeals to the system-building part of my brain quite nicely.
Yeah they are adding a lot of things that I wished 1 had. It’s probably possible to have those things with mods though.
So excited! I just went through the new feature highlights and they’ve added a ton of QoL stuff. Can’t wait to dig in again
The systems seem cool, but visually the game looks a bit lackluster, it’s kinda uncanny in places. Also what’s with that smoke and the flickering shadows?
I guess they just wanna resell the DLC though, it is Paradox we are talking about.
I will probably make a sale purchase if it gets good reception though, I hope the mod support is still good.I really wanted to get into the first game, but it seemed too overly complex and I didn’t have the time to spend with it to properly learned it.
I had fun making the roads and setting zoning until I realized I had to bring electricity to the houses and water. I couldn’t really figure out how the mechanics worked. Some things seemed “magical” where I could just place a power lines nearby and suddenly homes had electricity, but sometimes it didn’t work and it kinda ruined the fun.
Also I wish it allowed you to craft your own landscape
