Cities Skylines 2 - My take on the dev diary 2
7Welcome back, city builders! Today, we're taking a deep dive into the highly anticipated Cities: Skylines 2, based on the exciting in-game screenshots shared in this week's developer's diary.
We kick off the review with a detailed look at the game's Traffic AI. It's a vital part of the city-building experience, influencing everything from city planning to citizen satisfaction. From there, we jump into an intriguing comparison between the original Cities: Skylines and its much-awaited sequel, unpacking the differences, improvements, and potential challenges in store for players.
As we progress, we delve into one of the most significant aspects of city management - pathfinding. I walk you through the intricacies of this feature and its implications on your city's development. This ties neatly into our next topic - lane usage - a seemingly minor detail that can significantly impact the efficiency of your city's transport network.
The review then explores the game's traffic simulation, focusing on how it accurately represents the complexities of a bustling city. Notably, we look into the functionality and realism of roundabouts, a common feature in modern cities.
Next, we address a brand-new aspect that adds another layer of realism to the game - traffic accidents. Alongside this, we discuss the parking feature, a seemingly small detail that plays a considerable part in creating a realistic urban environment.
Our exploration of the game's Info Views gives you a glimpse into the game's improved accessibility and user experience. We then discuss service vehicles, emphasizing how their implementation and management can profoundly impact your city's functioning.
The episode closes with an intriguing discussion on traffic between cities, opening up new strategic dimensions to the gameplay. Stay tuned for more insights in our future episodes!
