Performance could certainly be better, but it’s good to be playing this game! Can’t wait to see the performance improvements and mod support coming soon. I will say it is amusing to see the meltdown of so many people reviewing it on Steam.

I’m just hoping to get more traffic! My city isn’t too big yet, but I’m looking forward to the puzzle of improving efficiency, especially since I’m nowhere near a pro in street designs.

All credit for these guys for being honest about performance, but I refuse to pay to be a beta tester, I'll be waiting until it's fixed or a cracked version so I can test it out first.

Honestly, as long as you have a decent computer (like not potato-grade hardware) the game is pretty playable in low settings. But I totally see your point of view

I admit I'm too much of a slut for graphics for low settings and with what I paid for my PC I shouldn't have to give up on it.

I have a 3090Ti and on every save so far, the game becomes borderline unplayable right around 12-13k pops. Complete FPS drop plus intermittent freezing that doesn't end until I close the game. I would be fine with this on an early-access game, which is what they should've released CS2 as initially.

I have a gtx1660 super and my city is currently at around 12k pops and the performance hasn't gotten much worse compared to when I started my city

I have a decent computer, and I can barely get more than 10fps after the city grows more than a few blocks.
