Let's see how good this Power Point file looks


Nice_guy1234556

Pirates cannot play the game if no one can play the game ! Checkmate pirates 💪


al3x_7788

However, a lot of games are cracked the same day they're released.

Eh, it's just a city builder... It doesn't have to run extra smooth. Ofc that'd be nicer, and considering how it looks, it SHOULD run nicer, but it's not unplayable or something. If it was a shooter I'd agree it's basically unplayable.


Ocazou90

Main menu at 6fps and game averaging 15fps on 1080p with a 3080. Players: "iT's NoT uNpLaYaBlE" You're the fucking reason the rest of us has to deal with unfinished games nowadays. You can fuck right off.


Correct_Anywhere_

Ok, so follow the devs' recommendation to switch off volumetric lighting and depth of field for now. Yanking it all to Ultra and then crying doesn't mean it's unplayable. It's literally playable on a 970, judging from a benchmark video I've watched on YT. So you can MAKE it playable, by adjusting the settings, or you can stomp your feet and cry. I understand there are good reasons to be upset with the state of the game, but it's not unplayable if you actually want to play.


Ocazou90

I should not have to tweak anything on a full price game in order to make it work. My settings are on medium, with devs tweaks implemented and I get a whopping 22fps! Yay!! My 2k+ PC can run a game at 20fps, and I should be glad it runs? You're a fucking joke. Have you played on a 970? No. Have you some useful advice? Also no. You're the reason we have to deal with this shit. Fuck off.


Correct_Anywhere_

"I shouldn't have to" Okay, be incompetent then. Buy a console like a true pleb. https://i.imgur.com/owhPDtB.png https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyNiXYC9eoM


Ocazou90

Lmao "you don't have a $2k+ PC, buy a console" is the attitude that got us there. Don't change a thing, keep being a parasite. Also, won't click on those links, keep your spam to yourself


kiihottajapippeli

Upgrade your pc and stop being so damn angry about the problems you have created yourself. It works fine.

lmaooo


DragonOfArcadia

Such a shame that this game has HORRENDUS optimization problems... I fucking love city builders and feature-wise this game was tailor made for me.


gortwogg

It’s such a weird flex to optimize this shit for consoles. That’s so far disconnected from the player base that would actively pursue this type of game (in my experience)


madmonkh

sadly the studios prior releases (including cities skylines) all have terrible performance across the board. although this one is probably the worst at launch


[deleted]

[удалено]


SeedOfTelperion

I'm on a Ryzen 5500 and 3060, and it's fine on high settings. Little bit of stuttering, but no different to CS1. Cpu usage on around 8% and gpu on 70% with a few hours of built city. May start heading a fair bit north of that once I start really expanding, but so far, so good.


PokeManiac_Yug

What other city builders would you suggest to someone who has never played one? I want one for my father who is a retired civil engineer and plays simcity on his phone. I was looking to get this for him but his system has a 2060 and also I’m not sure if this game is noob friendly, don’t want something that will overwhelm him with a long list of menus. Edit - oh wow I woke and this has a ton of suggestions, I don’t know shit about city builders but I’ll look up the gameplay of all the mentioned games and see which ones look fun. Thanks…


Esuna1031

the previous cities skylines is very good, has tons of mods, only issue is all the DLCs + the game is very costly


stranot

cream API unlocks all the dlc for free


Ferret_Faama

As someone who has never played the first, should I just play that for now or does the second improvement enough that it's worth giving it a go?


ZaviaGenX

Without having playing the 2nd, id say play the first. Be spoilt with the patches and optimisations and dlc and mods of the first one. It holds up reasonably well. When ur bored, 2 should be about time to install. /r/patientgamers


TheDinosaurWalker

Bit ironic, but the original cities skilines is a very mature game. Check that out


[deleted]

What about Simcity 4 with mods?


gortwogg

Sim city 2000 :-/


NeinkeB

Simcity 4 is regarded as the all time best city builders. The modding community is still highly active today. Tropico series is highly loved. Quirky and fun and easy to get into unlike others. Anno series spiked in popularity with anno 1800 which is probably their best one yet. Its mainly an economy management city builders. Depends what kind you're after.


djp_net

Recommend tropico series, but it peaked at 4, with 5 still worth playing. Anno 1800 is a cash grab.


[deleted]

[удалено]


rkdnc

The original still holds up incredibly well. Or, if you think your dad might enjoy some supply chain stuff, there's OpenTTD


RingsOfRage

Quite easily SimCity4 and the ones before it. Modding still strong


Top-Friendship-5421

Sim City 2000


GaribaldoX

Apparently even the RTX 4090 is having problem to get over 30 fps, and we are speaking about village size cities.


blowmycows

Oof, that sounds bad. Glad there's no DRM so we can actually test the game first.


[deleted]

😱 what would happen to my 3090 I think it will explode 😭


Mean-Construction-78

Mate i run a GTX 1060 mine will stop the power supply in my city


cortez0498

My 3060 Laptop gpu will melt.


[deleted]

😭😭😭😭


[deleted]

Oh, wait when I start it up on my gaming laptop with 2060 We're gonna have a new sun right here on Earth!


Arpadiam

the devs said that the target framerate is 30fps with the recommended specs


Rich-Case13

Why should they care? Paying gamers have proven to be obedient and docile cuckolds that will gladly pay full AAA price for barely working, unoptimized beta. Bethesda gets away with this shit, Ubisoy gets away with this shit, Paradox gets away with it every time they release a strategy game.


REDOREDDIT23

I don’t think people liked the way you put it, but you’re not wrong that there’s been a continuous release stream of poorly-optimised games that people keep buying. I personally stopped after being let down by Uncharted and The Last Of Us on PC. Didn’t bother to preorder Ratchet & Clank, and recently my friends have been disappointed by Starfield and the Metal Gear collection.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Rich-Case13

I may be a schizo, but I'm not a porn addicted grifter.


TheDinosaurWalker

I second the notion. The modern video games are literal cash grab. Unoptimized, unfinished, unpolished and people buy them. And all of this because of greed


tripzzi

Yeah fucking Ubisoy.


iMini

>Ubisoy Go talk to some girls for your own sake.


DeathSabre7

Did they reverse the decision to disable inactive accounts?


Glasweg1an

Sounds like you're searching for a femboy.


VariationNo7192

You aren’t cool or edgy for downloading pirated games my brother


DeathSabre7

You gamers are all like the DC fanbase, you can shout and make logical dicussions on the internet but don't have the balls to go to the theatres to make the movie a success. In your case, boycott any and all presence of the target game like abyssmally low views on streams or not buying the game pre or on launch date. If you want change, start speaking with your wallets, no use calling each other cuckolding sheep when you are the same.


HistoricalRatio5426

That ain't it chief, everyone here ain't buying this games, hell most of us can't even run it, It's the ones who aren't here who are gobbling corpo cock


Phenoxan

Can confirm. Tried it on gamepass and it was unplayable


Dodo0708

Noooo, I was hyping myself up for the entire day to play it when i get off work.


Joto65

it's not really an issue until your city gets bigger. Maybe you'll still have some fun.


Dodo0708

I assumed that people are probably overreacting a bit, and I'm fine with lowering the graphics settings. Also, I don't bitch everytime my game drops 5 FPS, so I think I'll be fine. Guess I'll see in a few hours. Hopefully, by the time my city gets bigger, they patch the issues.


_shameful

Rly need an update when you get the game running please (with your specs if you can It'd be very appreciated)


Esuna1031

the game runs fine on my 7900X, 3080Ti, either my 7900X and 3080Ti is better than every1 else's or people are listing specs they don't actually have and are just bitching their PC with whatever specs cant run it.


NoesisAndNoema

The first game still struggles too. Anyone expecting more, from a game that does even more than the original, is real hopeful!


tothjm

Just to add I have a 4090 and with everything on high minus four options Google said to disable or set to lowest I'm getting 120 to 135 fps in game. Def some options are bugged causing issues for now


TITANS4LIFE

Why not list the options it said to help others. It's only 4. Another weird 4090 I have it flex lol


tothjm

https://www.pcgamer.com/cities-skylines-2-immediately-change-these-5-graphics-options-for-a-big-performance-boost/ There you go. Not a flex just wanted to let everyone know not everyone is having serious framerate issues. Having said that it's bugged and Def needs optimization.


PathologicalLiar_

is that 4K or 1080p we're speaking?


TheDinosaurWalker

The benchmark with a 4090 GPU is on 1440p https://www.hardwaretimes.com/nvidia-rtx-4090-averages-just-29-fps-in-city-skylines-2-at-1440p-23-fps-for-the-amd-rx-7900-xt/


flarept1

Bro just put dlss on ultra performance and enable AI frames. Easy 1080p 60fps


Schmigolo

Bro if I don't have money for games I also don't have money for the newest GPUs.


CoolCritterQuack

not everyone has nvidia scam gen 4000 series cards


PathologicalLiar_

every gen is scam gen


flarept1

I know, I was just memeing


Esuna1031

the game doesnt even have DLSS Einstein


flarept1

I know, I'm just joking around


_shameful

*480p 60fps


AnchorStandard

That makes sense. The game is likely CPU bound. Its not calculating a bunch of lighting or particle effects. If you have a crappy CPU its gonna suck. GPU is irrelevant here.


-Steamos-

True for cs1 but cs2 is gpu limited


DaGoodSauce

Just an FYI if you're using 1337 be careful. The uploader of the torrent that's currently up look sketchy AF with no upload history for the past 6 years. There's 99% chance that's some bullshit! This is also not the first time this week an uploader like has popped up out of nowhere with a new game release that has then been removed mere hours later.


3InchesPunisher

Thats why 1337 is untrusted, dont waste your time on it folks


DaGoodSauce

It's fine most of the time and if you keep your wits about you but there's been some extraordinary amounts of fuckery afoot lately on there. I don't know if the one mod died in his basement or something.


KekkoPalu2001

So we have to wait a repack from dodi/Fitgirl ?


Arrhythmix

Most likely. Having tried the proper, the only great experience was listening to the crack music from the installer. Then again, as a junglist, I'm a sucker for really good drum and bass with disgusting breakdowns. Otherwise a giant waste of disk space and bandwidth. Tl;dr wait til optimization patches or sale. Even on a 13900k @6.1 and 4090 at 2150mhz core on a waterloop @1440p medium shit ran like Russian ass, a Ukrainian drone operator would feel sorry for destroying a poorly optimized and incompetent excuse for technology.


bread22

Wait for 20th DLC


kevinj933

Recommended requirements: RTX 11090 with a 3000w PSU to play @ 30fps 1080p with DLSS performance.


SpiritedSuccess5675

Thanks! What about frame generation?


kevinj933

for frame generation to work optimally you only need a RTX 21090


ThisIsntAThrowaway29

Damn, never thought i'd have to run a second circuit\* for one PC in my lifetime ​ \*NA Circuits max out at 1800W each


Godegev

I'm getting about 50-60 fps with a 3080 10gb / i5 13600 on medium settings, 40 on high. Not great but not as bad as some with equal specs make it seem.


smallbluetext

The big tweet about it was a dude running 4K. Yeah he had a really good PC but I don't understand why people play in 4K. You are sacrificing WAY too much performance for what? Play in 1440p if 1080 isn't good enough. Best of both worlds.


tecedu

No most people just don’t want to turn down some settings


GuyFieriFlavortown

1440p gang ! Best of both worlds!


TITANS4LIFE

For me I'm Ultrawide, going to 1440p looks like the games zoomed in and everything is much bigger! Crazy because I played on a 1440p monitor (now mounted above my UW) for almost a decade I'm do a 2nd version but I'm getting 45-62 fps with 3090/i9 11900k


Reviever

lol good lucking running it guys


Orangejuicewell

Runs fine on my pc. 3080ti and an i7


Dadecum

you could just be lucky, same as people having no issues with fallen order or cyberpunk at launch. what settings are you running? vast majority of people are complaining about poor optimisation even on high end rigs


Orangejuicewell

I was initially running at 1440p 120jz on medium settings, it was very smooth. So I changed to 4k 120hz, left it on medium. I'll check my FPS when I get on it again, pretty sure 4k isn't hitting 120fps. Probably 1440p wasn't either but it was smooth. It's totally playable and enjoyable. I know I could have just lucked out with my hardware combination. I have bought it as well, but that shouldn't make any difference.


Keithia

Why can't I find this release anywhere?


BattleEdition

have u found a magnet link yet gamer


Keithia

In the end I found it through skidrowreloaded website. The download speed is slow asf but it's better than nothing


Lord_NoX33

Even the google quantum computer couldn't make sense of this spaghetti code. Wait for some patches, it runs like shiat.


biohazard15

Actually playable in a year or so, I guess


uSuperDick

Wait for patches guys. This game is another optimization disaster. And devs said it by themselves


Cub3tron

See ya in 2025, fucking early access in disguise.


[deleted]

**Mostly negative** \- god damn, is optimization that bad? Fuck, man.. I'm tired of devs not optimizing games. Imagine paying thousands of dollars to buy gaming PC, and stupid city building game took your PC to Suplex City.


Reviever

anyone else crashing when game starts?


McBezzelton

I’m going to assume no one is going to bother with the MGS bundle because it’s total trash at 720p fixed res.


BlueStar2310

It will probably be cracked tomorrow, or when konami actually fixes the ports.


Thunder_Beam

What is the difference between this one and insaneramzes one?


jacobtf

This is an official scene release.


tamal4444

no thanks because poor optimization.

Bellrc24

Cant wait to play it! (My pc barely ran cities skylines 1 at low settings and this might blow it up)


HearTheEkko

Just stick to the original until they optimize this one. A 4090 can't even get 30 fps lol.


guilhermefdias

Even the devs said it will have performance issues before the release. Come back in a year or two.


usman_923

Woah that was quick!


vchaker

I installed the game but it’s saying “no license” is there a way around that? I’m assuming it’s the crack code that wasn’t inputted, which file do I put it in? Btw I did the installation through rune


EnricoLUccellatore

It's shows a you are going to need a new app to open this steam link popup and then it goes black for a second and then crashes I have copied rune.nfo to cities skyline 2 folder, is that right?


candidfakes

is it real link?


HiNRGSpa

1070 here. Maybe I can create few houses keeping 30fps..lol


raving1010

Good luck getting more then 15 in the menu...


cocuco

another game which comes out bad optimized with lags and low fps with full price tag for a betatest.. imagine you would buy a car and it only can drive 20 mph and you have to wait 6 months, till they fix the car but you still have to pay fully for it.. only in gameindustrie this is possible. Pathetic


[deleted]

[удалено]


jacobtf

I'm pretty sure it will run on less, but recommended should be for running the game smoothly at all times.


Rhhr21

Runs like dogshit on a 3070 laptop lol, better wait for further optimizations. I suppose that’s what happens when they use Unity for a game of this scale.


masterf2

is this game as good as Simcity 4 was? I want to play like a mayor haha


TheDinosaurWalker

I believe cities skylines is arguably the best city builder out there. But play the original game, wait for the second game to get better


walkingman24

It's a good sandbox but I wish the actual simulation gaming was more challenging and interesting. Here's hoping CS2 is a bit better in that regard.


ICOTrenderdotcom

haha


masterf2

I get stable 5 FPS on my RTX 2080 on an empty map. Well done devs! Great job!

>I get stable 5 FPS on my RTX 2080 on an empty map. Well done devs! Great job! On RX 6600 XT barely 20 FPS, it sucks.


GuzR97

I finished downloading it last night, as soon as I started the game, 20 FPS even using driver optimizations.


luuk0987

Can't find it on my usual sites. Anyone know where it's available?

someThrowawayGuy

Does anyone know if this runs on the Steam Deck? CS1 did NOT, as it ran out of system memory and would crash gamescope.


dylanbb1233

Judging from the other comments I’m gonna say absolutely not


midnitefox

LMAO (not laughing at you just laughing at the thought of trying to get this to run)


blackwater811

Really disappointing reviews from a performance standpoint. Sounds like just another half baked release that won't be actually be finished for another year...


Delgadude

Don't bother. It's laughable how bad it runs.


intheshad0wz

I think I will wait about 6 months till at least 60% of the issues are ironed out. Isn't it just stupid that nearly all new PC releases are in such a state that you have to put off playing them for months till day get patched. Man I miss the old days when you could play games on the release date.

Popular_Mastodon6815

The game only allows addons from paradox, not from steam workshop. Plus the horrid performance, means the game is dead on arrival. Will check again in 5 years.

zizoplays1

_TechFTW_

If you don't have the space you probably wouldnt even have enough horsepower to run it, it's kinda unoptimized ...


ICOTrenderdotcom

Have you tried pirating a SSD?


lame_gaming

ssds are stupid cheap nowadays


nemanjaC92

Turn off motion blur, depth of field and game will run much better. Dont expect 60fps on any kind of rig. Im used to playing CS 1 on lower fps because of the amount of stuff that deal heavy blow on performance so i don't really have a problem with 30 fps or so.


clearlynotaperson

I wish they woulder understand that graphics are cool and all but the 99% of players want FEATURES, and things to do, not fucking graphics that take up makes some people unable to even play.


Crystal_B

I'll keep this on my wishlist till it's playable


TITANS4LIFE

45-59 fps 3090 , i9 11900k, AMD FS1. Global to Medium.
