Finally some interesting news on this game!

I'm so hyped for this. My two biggest wishes for it are better support for public transport oriented and walkable cities, and better performance when playing larger cities

I think this is everyone's biggest wish. If they didn't address that, I'd consider it a gross oversight.

Hopefuly it won't need bunch of mods to have enjoyable gameplay anymore. Default traffic was terrible and mods were the driving force of the gameplay improvements.

I've played a LOT of C:S1, super stoked for the sequel! The gameplay trailer also showed what looks to be multi-use zoning, which would be amazing.

I can’t wait to try out CS:2, however I hope the new improvements don’t come with too much of a performance hit. With no mods and only 1-2 DLCs I’ve had CS:1 chew through RAM and crash like nobody’s business. Still super excited though!

Super excited to play this! It looked gorgeous from the clips shown during Xbox's showcase

Traffic giving away for emergency vehicles will hopefully in itself be of great help at reducing annoyances. Tough I'm a bit worried when they say “The citizens need to find a parking space and that will further drive up the importance of handling roads and traffic.”. I could see that becoming a problem if not implemented right and further congesting traffic. Them implementing seasons sound really interesting though!

Parking does sound like a pain, but also a very realistic representation of many cities. I think it’s in line with CS being a “traffic simulator with city building elements.”

I just hope they can make traffic properly utilize all the lanes on a road.

Sounds great! Looking forward to it being released
