City painter? You are losing your time!
My opinion is, CS2 is just another city painter like the first one.

Where are the challenges? Do not tell me money management. This is ridiculous. Do not tell me happinessf your citizens, ridiculous again. The game does not have a real strategy mechanisms. No real challenge.

You are given steps by steps things to dolike build residential houses, add a school, add a commercial area, then other things will be unlocked. Ridiculous.

Bad vehicles AI. I encountered several times where vehicles stopped all of a sudden to change lane just before a traffic light.

Bad citizens AI too. They look ridiculous.

No challenges. Trade is poor. You are painting a city. You are not building something.

I prefer building games like Anno, Civilization VI, Age of Empires,Banished and similar. Manor Lords looks promising.

Who has ever played Highrise City? It's better than CS in strategy and challenges.

Its even more city painter than the first one… The game just flood you with money the worse you play, atleast in the first one in hard mode It was a remote posibility to mess up the city, this one not so much…

The way they marketed it, its not what we got, I feel scammed.

Anyway, is that Highrise City game any good?

I am new to Highrise City but looks better. It has challenges like Anno campaign.
My challenge is to build a realistic looking city. I dont give barely a ♥♥♥♥ about economics or money. It has to be beautiful, and i need that "whow, what a beautiful skyline" feeling, this is my reason to play city builders.

Then you are not a city builder but a city painter.

Well you got your game, so be happy.
I didnt get what was marketed. I was scammed to buying this game. If it was marketed as a city painter then fine, would never have bought it

« PLAN, REACT, CHANGE
Deep Simulation

AI and intricate economics mean your choices ripple through the fabric of the city. Remember that as you strategize, problem-solve, and react to change, challenges, and opportunities.»

Nothing i do ripple through the fabric of my city!!!!!!!!!

Yes, CS2 has bad performance and stuff, missing animations etc.
But what really makes me sad is indeed the not-available challenge for money/management.
I built my first city to 30.000 peoples, not planned very well and so on and SWIMMED in money. The milestones let you bath in money, THAT is really bad and shows the GAME itself hasen't been tested/played enough before the release.
For me that is even worse than all the performance-problems... I don't have that much motivation to play the game right now...

When you paint your city more by adding details, you are losing your time and life.

Well the point was to manage. If it's too easy, then no management.

Def a painter, I would have returned if I bought it on steam. Just glad it was on Gamepass. I gave it its just due.... But there is nothing to it. It throws tons of cash at you, there is nothing to manage no simulation just droves of money bags and painting zones.
