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

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.

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!

Great news, honestly! I rather have less content, but actual interaction than all those bots reposting.

And I’ll try to check out your stream, sounds really interesting! Hopefully my internet will be also agree, haha

Is it me or did the game build of this video feel more like a developer build? Bit more rough, but things changed like the motorcycles finally having drivers.

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.

The slow rollouts are so annoying too, I often saw apps say I need to update without there even being an update for me.

Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe that sideloaded apps do get updated by the play store. (As long as their internal app manifest matches, I presume?)

There really was! It’s making me even more excited for next week, since they split it from the other city services. And I’m also glad they added splitting services per distract, I want to make some spread out rural towns when I create my first ‘city’ in C:S2

[–] Mermitian@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago

It also looks like in won't be feasible to make every area have perfect coverage for all the services, as it will become too expensive!

I really like the addition of high and low voltage networks, telecom networks and welfare buildings. It looks like everything is more in depth and more detailed than the previous game!

 

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

 

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