Definitely wondering the same. We pretty much already knew about all of this week’s topic. But we’ll still get to explore the new mechanics and try to learn the game, when it launches. Just that we already know a lot on a surface level.

Indeed! It’s a lot of area to work with and a lot more than cs1 offered (without mods). As long as it runs well, it will be a great sequel :)

Masayoshi Takanaka! And his music is pretty good, haha.

A bit random question for the people that come across this, but would it be an idea to make a megathread for CS:2 (speculations and otherwise) since we are a relatively small community on here?

[–] Mermitian@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

It could be an annoying chore at times, yeah. With C:S2, I don't think it will be too bad with the two separate power networks, as you can probably get some pretty assets that function as transformers. And since the bottleneck mechanic is relatively simple, spamming some transformers probably can solve that without having to wait long. And mods would definitely pick it up quickly after release!

Not that much going on in this one. They quickly showed all popups for the electricity stations, and in general did covered the same stuff as in the other video.

[–] Mermitian@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah, dirt roads carrying electricity doesn’t really make sense to me. Perhaps as an upgrade with above ground poles? But I’m sure we either get them officially or with mods!

Did you see the underground and automated parking upgrades? And in general the road one was very interesting to see!

 

Sorry for the late post everyone! The internet is a bit spotty for me.

 

It's Thursday, so time for another developer insight!

I'm sad to see that there isn't any medium density for offices, commercial and industry, I had hoped for them to be there.

But holy damn, dynamic farmlands? And that huge mine? That is great stuff, basically one of the few things that Cities (x?)XL did super well!

 

Mostly the same as we already saw, but they did show the new upgrade tree! And it looks very in depth, and exciting.

I’m even worse, I have used wsl in a windows vm on my mac before haha
