Cities: Skylines II

This game is finally getting better than CS1.

It's a decent game, but I feel like it is still half baked. The act of designing and painting a city is beautiful, but, the economic simulation is not very good. Obviously this is not Factorio but specifically the distribution and chain of goods makes no sense. The economy feels like a lie. Businesses order products from outside of the city even when the products they are looking for are right across the road. Businesses will order goods, process them rapidly, then send a truck out only after they've process all of the goods, and be down 90% of the time because they are waiting on more goods, i.e. making no profit and no tax revenue. There should be simple but more control to where companies buy goods and how much they store, warehouses aren't even in the game yet. Bottom line this is a very beautiful city painter, but not a good city builder.

The first part was great—I played it a lot. The new version has a few cool features, but optimization is non-existent; the whole game is terrible because of how it runs.

Ich bedanke mich bei Cities Skylines 2, dass ich wieder Lust auf Workers and Resources bekommen habe. In Cities ist alles ein wenig zu simpel für meinen Geschmack. Ich habe mal einen LKW beobachtet, der seine Fracht abgeliefert hat im Wohngebiet. Dieser LKW ist so dumm durch die Gegend gefahren, dass er mehrmals über die gleiche Straße gefahren ist, was natürlich keinen Sinn macht und künstlich den Verkehr verkompliziert. Und das sind schon Kleinigkeiten, die bei mir die Immersion einer in sich geschlossenen Wirtschaft zerstören. Habe mich eigentlich drauf gefreut endlich in 2026 dem Spiel eine Chance zu geben, aber ich warte wohl noch 2-3 Jahre. Vielleicht tut sich da noch was. Aber das ist nicht das einzige, was ich nicht gut fand. Es ist alles so beliebig in dem Spiel... Positiv ist allerdings zu erwähnen, dass man Mods direkt im Spiel laden kann. Das sollten andere Spiele auch so machen. Müsst ihr wissen - für mich ist´s leider nicht das stundenverschlingende Mega-Spiel. Leider :-(

Meh, i dont really like this game I think CS1 is better beacause Im missing some feautures from CS1 like trolleybusies, monorails, custum parks, natural reserves etc. I think theres not much assets compare to CS1.

this is it, the succesor to simcity4 we all have been waiting for. this isnt the bad first cities, this is another beast and worth your time if you also thought simcity4 was the best citybuilder.
