Colossal Order is announcing their new title.

[MarkJohnson]

I just an got an email about the new Paradox Announcement Show March 6th.

I'm hoping for C:S2, but I get the feeling it will be some other title.

Another title would mean that we won't see a new Cities Skylines until 2030 at best.

[Jamoosh]

But think of all the new DLCs you can pay for over the next 7 years?

Parking Lot/Meter DLC - Pad your budget with parking fees
Climate Change DLC - Green Cities Redux (now with more sea walls!)
Silicon Valley DLC - Build your own tech mecca and then build out your suburbs, because nobody can afford to live in the city
Suburbs DLC - Silicon Valley DLC was so popular, you can now customize your suburbs
Las Vegas DLC - Turn your city into a gambling destination (new Police service buildings too!)
Master Planned Community DLC - Milking a little bit more out of the Plazas & Promenades and Suburbs DLCs
Data Center DLC - Attract data centers that use all your resources and create few jobs

Maybe never.

The next title could possibly be another unrelated city builder that's completely different. I sure wouldn't want CS2 to be a rehash of what we have.

Sorry for this yet to be regretted comment: It's like going to Target even if you do not like them or going to Walmart and regretting it because you only go there because you can't afford not to. While I agree that I do not want a rehash of Cities Skylines, its the best thing like it going. The worst thing about Colossal Order is it has no competition. I have gotten used to the problems but I appreciate the type of entertainment it has provided. It's almost fun just watching the problems come and go. Give us marked improvement CO...just for the heck of it

[MarkJohnson]

They've never put any real effort into this game. Once Natural disasters DLC hit, it started downhill quick. It's been fun for the last 8-years, but I hope the new title is some sort of builder/simulator.

[CyberVibes]

It's been too and fro for sure but i've enjoyed the ride up until about a year ago where i started yearning for a new game. I think between them and the modders they've made it a far better game than it was and with what they've learn't from developing on a limited engine along with the feedback and telemetrics the sequel can't possibly be a flop.

If they get the new version as a good base game as possible then i see it blowing this version out of the water and i'm sure they understand this too. I just can't see the next version being a flop but i do question the length of time it's taking but i got my toes, legs, arms, eyes and ears crossed that this will be the time.

See how much fun Cities is? You get inspired to paint a funny picture and it makes people laugh. You need to change your avatar to show everyone how someone looks with toes, legs, arms, eyes and ears crossed

[MarkJohnson]

It seems confirmed. The next title will be:

Cities in Motion 3

Maybe they are going to try and overtake the Transport fever and other transport games.

All this constant complaining gets a bit boring after a while. If you aren't happy with the game, it might be better for all of us if you found something else to do.

So says the one complaining about others complaining and contributed nothing to the thread. Please troll someone else's thread, or make your own troll thread.

I'll definite buy it when it releases. Hopefully they have a more city builder feel to it than the previous Cities in Motion titles.

I never played Cities In Motion. What's the difference between Cities In Motion and Cities Skylines?

CIM is entirely focused on public transport, you don't create the city but manage public transport in existing cities.

Cities in motion 2 sold 400.000 copies

Cities Skylines sold 12 million copies.

There is no way they'll do Cities in Motion 3 instead of Cities Skylines 2.

I agree. Going by your description it's a no brainer.

I prefer creating cities. So I hope the developers see it the same way. :)

Who knows, until the official announcement is made?

Could be made as a baby step towards CS:2.
